Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the exceptional sound quality, comfortable fit, and lightweight design of these earbuds, which many users find ideal for smaller ears. While the battery life and open-ear style are also frequently praised, some users have expressed concerns regarding occasional connectivity issues and a maximum volume level that feels too low. Additionally, a small portion of customers feel that the product is priced higher than its overall value.

    I really loved the look of these but the features were not what I was hoping for. The sound quality was good but I was having major issues with phone calls. Anytime I was on a phone call, the other person could never hear me. It was to a point where I felt as if I was shouting just so the microphone could pick up my voice. I’m not sure if it was user error but I don’t think there was much I could do to fix that issue. They also made my ears a bit sore when I wore them for too long. Unfortunately, I had to return them. I really wish I would’ve had a better experience with these!

    First of all, I love the color. It is exquisite. The pairing to your phone is quick and easy. Talking on them is very clear and they block out all outside noise when you are on the phone or listening to music. If you get a call, soon as you click the button on the buds, the connection is immediate. I recommend them

    The Bose open ear buds work great for me. I don’t think they will work for everyone because they aren’t completely noise canceling. I love the look and ease of use. I’ve used pretty much every ear pod, bud or plug in ever invented, these are my favorite.

    Sometimes the mic function does not work properly. In some of my calls they say that they hear me far and not quite clear. The battery life is too short but you hear every details from the music, overall, it's great, I like it a lot.

    Love the way they fit the ear! Best buds for the fit! But not sound quality! The battery isn’t the best if you charge them together but only wear one and you let the other stay on its charger it’s a waste of your time! Because you should’ve just worn both! It’s not worth the cost! Cheaper models out there way better than this product!

      Hi LeslieR, thank you for sharing your experience with your Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. We’re glad to hear you love the way they fit, but we’re truly sorry to learn that the sound quality and battery performance haven’t met your expectations.

      It’s common for one earbud to drain its battery more quickly while the other sits in the charging case because most earbuds designate a “primary” earbud. This primary bud manages the Bluetooth connection to your device and relays audio to the secondary bud, so it naturally consumes more power. If you’re only using one earbud while the other is docked, the active one continues working as the main connection point, which explains the uneven battery usage.

      We’d like to know more about the battery and sound performance issues you’re experiencing so we can help improve your listening experience. Please feel free to share additional details, and we’ll be happy to assist further. You can reach us through this link: http://bose.life/globalsupport
