    I finally found a pair of earbuds that don’t fall off! My ear canal is very small. Sound is good for listening to audiobooks. Had to get Bose app to work with my iPhone.

    The right one drains a lot faster than the left one making it hard to use them together. It also randomly stops connecting to my phone.

      Thanks so much for your feedback! We're sorry to hear you're experiencing faster battery drain on the right earbud and connection issues, that’s definitely not the experience we want for you.

      This can sometimes happen due to the right earbud acting as the primary connection point, which may cause it to use more power. To help resolve this, we recommend checking for firmware updates, resetting the earbuds, and ensuring both are fully charged before use. You can also try reconnecting them to your device by removing and re-pairing them via Bluetooth.

      Here’s a troubleshooting guide that may help: http://bose.life/4oSodb7

    It met the precise quality of bose towards music quality, comfort and weight. During driving can't able to hear calls and always you need to keep hand on ear buds to push more in to ear canal to hear out.

    For an open ear, looks, fit and sound is really good but constantly losing connections is keeping it from being a keeper. If only they could fix the Bluetooth reliability its an awsome open ear.

      It's great to hear you were impressed by the fit and sound of the Ultra Open Earbuds, but I'm sorry to hear you experienced instances where you lost connection. It's important to ensure your buds are kept within 10m/33ft of the Bluetooth device to ensure a reliable connection. If the problem persists, please reset the buds and establish a new connection.See this link for troubleshooting information. https://bose.life/3UdVqQu.

    These are amazing. I hated just wearing one ear bud or turning on transparency on my airpods because i still could hear my surroundings while listening to kisic at a decent volume. These dont go in to your ear but yet they sound amazing. I though the sound of my music would bleed but it doesn’t. Bose makes good stuff

      I'm happy you like the audio and battery performance of your Ultra Open Earbuds, and that you find them comfortable to wear! If the left earbud isn't always remaining connected, try rebooting your connected Bluetooth device. If issues with the connection (and with phone calls) persist, our support team would love to assist you: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

    Failure to Charge

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Purchased 31 Dec 2024 (unable to return it 60 days later). Charging issues within 30 days. The left earbud will not charge despite multiple troubleshooting recommendations from Best Buy, Bose, and the online forum. The electric prongs that charge the earbuds are small and frail and often get stuck in the down positions, resulting in no charging or mechanical issues that cannot be fixed. Opinion/Recommendation: DO NOT BUY. The original purchase price was 323, but now it's 229. This means inventory is too high, and realtors are adjusting due to poor performance sales and word-of-mouth opinions that aren't captured elsewhere. I bought Bose because I am a long-time customer. ( 2 x Bose mini sound link, sound bar, and earbuds). I'm moving on to Beats 2 based on online reviews. I didn't expect this issue within 30 days of owning the product, as this issue should have been resolved in testing/design.
