    A must for biking and running

    Exceptional open sound stage and a MUST HAVE for the biker or runner in your life. You still hear your surroundings which is so critical in biking and running, I really can't emphasize it enough. I will always have a pair. The music quality really doesn't suffer. It's a different sound than an earbud, less bass given the nature of how it sits on your ear, and they're very stable. The mic quality is mid tier at best though, I dont know if beamforming is more difficult, but if you're looking for an in office pair that allow you to hear your surroundings...I wasnt impressed and told frequently that I sounded muffled.

    The sound quality and comfort is better than any other open earbud I have tried and it’s not even close. The main issue is the microphone and price. Quite frankly, the microphone is abysmal and by far its biggest performance weakness. The other major issue is it is way too expensive for a product like this when other open-ears are considerably cheaper. I ultimately returned it in favor of a more economical open-ear option.

      Hello Brad,

      It's great that you liked the sound quality and comfort of the earbuds. I understand you've returned the earbuds, but should you decide to try the earbuds again. I'd recommend ensuring that the earbuds are positioned correctly on the ear to get the best mic performance from the earbuds. We have a guide available to help with getting the best position of the earbuds here: https://bit.ly/4gKCK4z

      We'd also love to help should you try the earbuds again, please reach out: https://bose.life/contact

    Good sound especially for music, comfortable for the ears but too expensive with little control on the earbuds, I can only play and stop the music without volume control or ambient awareness.

    I love the Bose Earbuds. I have the apple ear pods as well,which are also wonderful, but the sound from Bose and the fact that I can still hear cars or people talking while listening is wonderful. The fit is great and the quality is exceptional.

    It's little uncomfortable at first but you get use to it. No sound leaks out and i can hear the audio perfectly. Battery life lasts about 9 hours per earbud. The case battery lasted all week.

    Comfort vs Sound

    Earbuds are very comfortable. They do not insert deep into the ear canal which I feel adds comfort but does not give you the full effect of the rich sound Bose can deliver.

    The battery lasts for days. I can truly hear things around me when listening to music, books or on a call. When on a call, I'm told it is crystal clear. Can you mow the grass and listen to something? No, but that isnt the purpose of these. Can you go on a run and feel better about hearing your surroundings while enjoying music or a book, yes.

    These earbuds are so comfortable. I sometimes forget I’m wearing them. I use them as my headset for work as well as personal use. The sound quality is very good. You can still hear what’s going on around you which I really like. I would definitely recommend these.

    I absolutely love these. My only complaint is when making phone calls it's muffled and not very high in volume. But music sounds amazing in these. I only wish that I could buy a case protective case for it in town nobody has any. But I would recommend these and they're so comfortable to wear.

    Life and Music/Podcasts Come Together

    Having used multiple brands of in-earbuds, using these Open-Ear Bose Earbuds was a unique experience. And, frankly, I love the experience. I can wear them all day and not have any fatigue, unlike having a silicon tip lodged in my ear canal. I wear them everywhere, no one takes a second look to see them clipped on my ear. Wearing them all day is like having a soundtrack to life everywhere I go. I have also listened to podcasts more frequently as it is convenient and can be done so in the course of a normal day's activities. The sound quality is good, and better than I expected. It's not an in-ear experience, but quite satisfactory (and I am picky about my sound as an audiophile). This is an amazing first attempt by Bose, and the next reiteration should even improve. NOTE: If you try these and think the sound doesn't work for you, move them around and adjust the angles on your ear, it makes a difference with individual placement. I found the sweet spot for me and it was vastly improved over my first placement.

    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.
