Comfortable, nice sound quality, no base
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You can wear them all day without noticing until something brushes against your ear or you lay down due to how they stick out past your ear. If you like deep base with your music I would suggest Beats Studio Buds or the 2nd gen AirPods. If you can live without the deeper base I would suggest these because the comfort. I did have an issue that happened a few times when the sound was cutting in and out and my phone was on me during it. I did end up returning them and got the Beats Studio Buds and have been happier with them because of the great sound quality with the deep base.

Good for everyday use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds are really nice and comfortable to wear. But if you do have piercings that run along your helix, this is not the earbuds for you. Cleans easily and is able to connect to 2 devices at the same time. The app is also easy to work

Love them
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love them, I suffer from ear fatigue and have issues with things going in my ear. I almost for get they are on and with my dark hair it makes them nearly invisible. The only con I think Being on after a full day wearing non stop can hurt your ear a bit but nothing compared to the ear fatigue I use to get using in ear head phones or even ear head phones

Great Earbuds!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great design! I can’t even feel them on my ears. Sound blocks out the surrounding noise even though it is an open ear design. I haven’t used it on my run to see how well it stays in. Great on an airplane to drown out the other passengers.

Amazing ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these for my wife as she can’t stand the Apple air pods. These are comfortable and are like mini speakers for your ears. I thought others around her would hear them but you can’t. Sound quality is amazing! Well done!

Possibly comfortable but way too buggy.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It takes a lot of effort to make the Open Ultra comfortable, but once you get it there it does sound really nice and it can stay there for comfortably for hours. However it is the buggies bose product I've ever used. Often only one earbud worked, requiring me to reset it by putting it in/out of the case. Sometimes even this wouldn't work and I'd have to unpair and re-pair it. This was inconsistent but it did happen way more than it should. More consistently, when starting a video it would take a solid 2 seconds before audio kicked in. If I paused the video, I'd have to go through the same thing. Imagine leaving a tiktok comment, moving on to the next video, only to miss the first 2 seconds of it. Really annoying. I ended up returning it. Not the quality I expect from this brand. I'd probably have stuck with it if it wasn't such a buggy product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the Bose sound from your Ultra Open Earbuds, and that you found a comfortable fit after a while. However, I'm sorry to hear that one earbud wasn't working 100% of the time. Resyncing the earbuds with the case can resolve this, or you can reboot your connected mobile device as this can improve the connection's stability as well.
As for a video's audio not playing immediately, a slight audio/video delay via Bluetooth is normal. However, using a different video app can produce different results, as can resetting your earbuds, see here: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000000hRrFAAU&language=en_US.

The BEST BUDS!!
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish I’d made this purchase a lot sooner. The quality is clear, I thought I’d have an issue with the sound, by the pods sitting on my ear lobe, and not in my ear, no issues AT ALL! I got LITERAL sores in my ear from the Apple iPods. I am a REAL FAN, of all BOSE products.

Great for exercise and hot weather
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these earbuds when I am exercising or outside walking in warm weather when over-the-ear headphones would be too hot to be comfortable. Of course, there is no sound isolation, but the tradeoff is worth it for the comfort. I also like the way they clip onto your ears; I find conventional earbuds uncomfortable after a brief time, and they tend to fall out. The noise cancelling helps.

If you are reading the reviews these are for you.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound great. After having them for two months now I actually use them most for movies and tv shows. The immersive sound is perfect. I love not bothering anyone else at home. I used to wear headphones or buds but the way these clip on my ears I forget I’m wearing them. There is an adjustment period if you are used to noise canceling. I highly recommend.
