Posted .Hi SamuelA, thank you for sharing your feedback. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are equipped with two microphones in each earbud, and wearing them properly can greatly improve call quality. Blocked microphones may cause poor sound quality for the person on the other end of the call. Please make sure the microphones are not obstructed by headwear and that the earbuds are positioned correctly on each ear.
We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing microphone issues, and we’d be happy to help you resolve this. You can check out this helpful link for more information: https://bose.life/3N7ubHl

Dissapointing considering they're a Bose brand.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Music is good but phone conversations are horrible!!! Buds do not keep a charge as long as stated. I can have the left bud at 50% and the right at 10% about tondie. Both are charged/recharged and worn together. I have other Bose products and have been very happy with them with no issues. Very dissapointed and feel ripped off with these buds.

Not my first choice.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not my favorite Bose purchase. I had high hopes for these to use at work, but driving in my pickup on bumpy dirt roads proves to be too loud and I can't hear my calls well. Seems like music can get plenty loud so not sure where the issue lies with voice calls.

Surely disappointed!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These do not live up to expectations! Sound has very minimal bass to them. On phone calls the individuals that I was speaking to could not hear me at all.

Love them!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these for a friend because I loved mine so much! He loved them too!!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat for music..BUT
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are amazing for music listening. But these are probably the worst head phones i have owned to talk with. I had them replaced by bose but the new ones had the exact same issue. The person on the other end was barely able to hear me.

Don't Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For $300 these earbuds should be above Apple Airpod quality. The audio did not blow me out of the water. The call quality is terrible! I attempted to return them but was told I was past the window which might not even have been true. I'm so upset that I let an employee who most likely could have cared less tell me this was a good option. Do your own research.

Really loose
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.[Employee of bestbuy] I use my earbuds for phone calls although the sound was good when properly positioned which was always difficult to get, the person on the other line can hear everything. Not worth the price tag
