    These are the nest earbuds I have ever had. The sound is great. The microphone works amazing. They block out all the back noise when I am talking on the phone. They are not noise cancelling, just in case you were wondering (because of the way they are made). The only downside, the battery has a shorter life span than my other bose earbuds. I can wear these all day and they dont hurt my ear at all.

    I have been waiting for such design for awhile from Bose and finally it's here. Typical bose, it sounds clear, and loud enough for my workout. It felt comfortable. I can now pull my hoodie up and down without dropping them. The immersive aspect is quite cool. And don't expect too much on the bass with this design. I don't know how long I can get with the battery yet.

    These open ear buds are just what I needed. My main issue I have had with lesser brands were the connectivity with my phone. They were horrible. These are great and once you find the best location in your ear, the sound is actually pretty loud considering they are open ear.

    Very comfotable earbud. Sound is fantastic. Connect to Bose soubdbar ultra and it creates a personal surround mode. The sound on personal surround sound mode is great and immersive. If you want noise canceling these are not for you. If you want great sound and comfort these are the ones.

    Sounds great but you have to be in a quiet place.

    Returned the item. In a quiet environment they sound amazing and are the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used. Unfortunately when used around even a moderate amount of noise, the headphones get drowned out. At the gym, I had them at max volume and could barely hear them over the noises of the machines. They were unfortunately completely unusable in an outdoor environment as even the wind was making them hard to hear.

      Hello,

      I am sorry you are disappointed with your Ultra Open Earbuds when you are using them in a busy environment. Due to their open factor, and because they don't have noise cancellation, you will be able to listen to your music but also your surrounding. So indeed if you are in a loud environment, you might want to use a pair of in-ear earbuds if you want to focus on your music.

      Best regards,

    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.

    Favorite open-ear earbuds

    These Bose are my absolute favorite open ear earbuds. They are super comfortable, have great sound quality, and are stable on my ears even while running. They don’t interfere with sunglasses. They are good enough to use on an airplane. However, they are expensive and the battery life is nowhere near that of others.

    Decent audio quality, unfortunate high noise floor

    They pair fine, have minor connectivity issues on Android (odd dropouts that require disconnect/reconnect), and sound reasonably good for what they are. They look much nicer than most other open-ear alternatives and don't suggest "Don't talk to me" which is nice. My one main gripe is that the noise floor is much higher than an average TWS. It's very noticeable in quiet environments and generally makes these feel cheaper than the price tag indicates. Would strongly recommend waiting for a firmware update that fixes this before opting for them.

      Hello Jack,

      It's wonderful that you've been enjoying the audio quality of the earbuds. For the connection dropouts I'd recommend double checking that you're not connecting to the Bluetooth LE connection of the earbuds for every day use.

      I understand you're hearing the noise-floor of the earbuds, it is odd that it would be audible even outside of quiet environments. It is not normally audible by everyone, and we would expect if it is heard to only be in a quiet environment with no music or audio playing. Please reach out to us https://bose.life/contact as we'd love to get your feedback from you.

    The best earbuds available in the market right now. The ability to have the best sound quality and be able to hear everything around you it’s something that only Bose can do. The bass is also a great feature. Definitely the best purchase I’ve made.

    These have great sound and are extremely comfortable; however, it does not make up for the poor connectivity, the terrible microphone and high cost. Go for shokz instead.

      Thanks for sharing your honest review. We're glad to hear you found the sound quality and comfort impressive, but we're sorry to hear about the issues with connectivity and microphone performance.

      Your feedback is incredibly valuable and helps us identify areas for improvement. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are designed for open-ear listening, which can sometimes result in trade-offs in mic clarity and connection stability depending on your environment and device pairing.

      To help address these concerns, here’s a helpful guide with steps that can restore your earbuds’ optimal performance:

    I was excited about these and wanted to try them out. Out of the box, i was impressed. the immersion mode was pretty neat, turn your head and the audio sounds like its coming from one direction. I loved that i could wear these and not miss anything going around me. Only thing i didn't like was the call quality. Keep in mind, these are not noise cancelling nor are they in your ear. When it came time to make a call, if you happened to be in an environment that has some background noise, it was kinda hard to hear the person on the other line. I found myself diverting the call back to my phone and putting my phone up to my ear (you can still do this without taking off the open earbuds). Not the end of the world but a minor inconvenience if you want to keep your hands free. Ended up returning but might repurchase if they fix the call audio and if they drop the hefty $300 price tag
