    I thought the price was too high for the Bose Open-ear earbuds, but I couldn't help myself. I have older headphones made by Bose that are still better quality than other brands. I wanted to try out earbuds by Bose and chose these for the reviews of not falling out of the ear. I have a different brand, and they just don't stay in my ears, even if I'm not moving my head too much. These are the best earbuds I've tried so far! The sound is amazing for something you just want when you go for a short trip or walk/hike. I was always using headphones so I wouldn't lose other earbuds while hiking (made that mistake once!). Believe me, these stay put as reviewed.

    This is one of the best Bluetooth earbuds I have ever had. If you wear glasses and love listening to your music or on the phone quite a lot with work stuff, I think these earbuds are your best choice. Sounds quality is great. I give it 5stars

    I bought these as a christmas gift for my mom because she has a hard time with regular ear buds hurting her ears and is not a fan of over the ear headphones either. These clip onto the side of your ear and dont sit down inside eliminating the uncomfortably she experiences with traditional buds. She will even forget she’s wearing them. She absolutely loves them.

    They fit very well in the ears; however, call quality is poor when using them outdoors in windy conditions, and sometimes they don’t connect to the phone when taken out of the case. Because of these issues, I returned them.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback, we're glad to know that the earbuds fit you very well. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have two microphones in each earbud, and properly wearing them can greatly improve call‑quality performance. Blocked microphones can lead to muffled or poor audio for the person on the other end of the call, so we always recommend making sure the microphones aren’t covered by headwear and that the earbuds are positioned correctly on each ear.

      Regarding the call‑quality issues and the occasional disconnection, these can often be resolved with a few helpful steps. We’re sorry to hear that you’ve already returned the earbuds, but in case you ever decide to try them again, or if you just want the information, here are some links that may help:

    So far so good with these they provide a good quality sound for them not being completely in your ear. They are perfect for me cause I don’t like over the ear and I get to many ear problems with in ear head sets. Only problem o see is that they are heavy and sometimes the they pull in my ear causing the audio so sound lower than it is.

    I am a person with small ear canals and cant wear the ones that go into your ear. I’ve tried JBL, MPOW, Apple even alexa buds. none stay in my ear. These just clip to my ear, and dont fall off AT ALL, great for the active person. I can listen to music, watch movies and take calls, even ask “hey siri” to ignore a call or make a call. The bad side, call quality isnt all that great but who makes calls nowadays, its texting or emails! Love these so much Im buying two more pair for my kids so i dont have them tell me the headset hurts their head!

    My wife hates ear buds or anything in her ears. I suggested these as they sit on the ear. It took her a bit to get used to them, but she has thanked me no less than 10 times for getting these for her.

    They may be the most comfortable earbuds I've used, but it's got the same issue 99% of bluetooth earbuds have, no LDAC. LDAC is the only compression that doesn't lose background music or soft sounds and that cuts out on these.

      Hey Maude, thank you for feedback. It's great to hear that these are the most comfortable earbuds you've used! I understand how important LDAC is for high-quality sound, especially for background music and soft sounds. No worries; I've shared your feedback internally.

    These buds are amazing. Lightweight and they basically hook onto your ear and not into your ear canal, which always gave me pain after a while.
