    Bought them on Cyber Monday because I really wanted open ear concept headphones. Very pleased with the performance but like others wrote volume could be better. Both stereo and immersive.

    Comfort vs Sound

    Earbuds are very comfortable. They do not insert deep into the ear canal which I feel adds comfort but does not give you the full effect of the rich sound Bose can deliver.

    My daughter uses these and she likes the sound, but when we are riding in the car even at low volumes I can hear her music. Good for certain applications but not good in all scenarios.

    Great product limited by current firmware/software. The design and fit are incredible, I use these daily and no longer reach for my airpods. Some Cons: Constant static sound when in ear and audio is not playing (facebook,Reddit,etc) Bluetooth occasionaly wont reconnect and buds desync. also for $300 not having included wireless charging is a bummer

    Great-sounding open-air earbuds. So light you really would forget they're on your ears but for the wonderful sound, but be careful. While you can't shake them off during exercise, you can easily brush them off. After pausing my music while in a convenience store, one of the buds came off when put my hood back on in a slight rain. Panic! Fortunately, it got stuck between my hoodie and my shoulder. So, great earbuds, but be careful.

    Sound quality is great, as expected from Bose. Charge time is alright, not super fast but not super slow either. I did return these due to them being uncomfortable on my ear. I have daith (inner ear) piercings that these would either press down against or press forward (even if I "flipped" the ring up). While it may have loosed with use, the pressure from front to back (how they stay in place) would make my ears ache within 30mins of wearing.

      Posted .

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the earbuds. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the sound quality and found the charge time reasonable, but we understand how discomfort from your daith piercing made them difficult to wear. The open‑ear design is intended to provide comfort and situational awareness for most ear shapes, but piercings in the inner ear can sometimes create pressure points that affect fit and long‑term comfort.

      Your feedback is very valuable, as it helps us better understand how different ear shapes and piercings impact the wearing experience. We’ll make sure to share your input with our product team as we continue to improve design and fit. If you’d like to explore other models that may better suit your needs, please feel free to reach out to us through this link: http://bose.life/globalsupport

    For the first month I swore by them. Most comfortable ear buds I’ve ever worn. Great battery life and Perfect for cycling and day to day wear. So comfortable I almost got in the shower with them on because I forgot I had them on. Only down fall and I’ve experienced this with other Bose earbuds they just don’t stand the test of time and with these it was a very short time. After 2 months the left earbud went out and would work every so often to where I would just wear the right earbuds and leave the left in the case just because I wanted to use these earbuds so bad. I eventually returned them and went back to wear AirPods. Until next time Bose :(

    I love the sound quality and the light design of the earbuds but I am having some short connectivity loss often (like a cracking sound in both ears) when I run with them. I hope Bose can fix this issue soon. Firmware has been updated and I have no issues with other Bose earbuds in same condition.
