    I really like that i can wear these for hours and have no discomfort. They sound great and they’re perfect for when you are not trying to block any noise and yet still be able to listen to something without bothering others.

    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.

    Nice deal, and price, my issue that I had was I was unable to talk with the Open Ear due to my ears are too large for the ability to talk and be heard. They are great for listening to music.

    Exactly what i was looking for, sound is in par with what is to be expected from Bose. Battery exceeded my expectations. And you can use one or the other. They are is no master ear bud where both have to b out of the case for the other to work

    I love these so much! I like that they don’t go directly in your ear, and that you can listen to your music and people talking to you at the same time. I think the sound quality is great as well. Personally, I feel that you can’t go wrong with Bose. They are worth the cost.

    I love how these clip on so they aren’t in the way of earrings or glasses. The sound is very good for an open ear bud. Sadly though, I am unable to use these for work calls - the person couldn’t hear me so I had to go back to my other ear buds. I still like these for listening to music or to use with my IPad, and the immersive audio feature is fun!

    Greatly recommended for comfort and spund quality. I would however not recommend them if they are the onlt pair of headphones since they do not block any sound in loud environments so you will not be able to enjoy them.

    The airbuds tend to pinch the ear after wearing for 30-60 minutes. Also have had a couple times where the right and left buds take awhile to sync to each other

      Hello, Scott. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, and we’re grateful that you chose the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. We’re sorry to hear that you’ve been experiencing discomfort after wearing them for 30–60 minutes.

      We highly recommend ensuring that the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are positioned correctly according to the proper wearing guidelines. Additionally, we suggest avoiding the use of other accessories, such as headbands or glasses resting on the same area, as these can create additional pressure and contribute to pinching.

      We also understand that you’ve experienced issues with your left and right earbuds taking time to sync. To help resolve this, please try the troubleshooting steps in the link below. These steps often address connectivity or syncing delays:

    I love these earbuds, they fit perfect in my ears without hurting because I have small ears. Also, I love how they stay charged for days without having to consistently charge them in between wearing them. The only down side is sometimes I am told that I sound far away.

    The best earphones I have ever owned. Easy on the ear. You won’t even notice that you’re wearing it , Sound was excellent. I never expected it for an open earphone. The only downside I could say is that you could easily loose it without noticing it . And also the microphone has poor reception. When I use it to talk on the phone , the other side has difficulty hearing my voice. Other than that I really like the sound of this.

    Sounds great, sound control is great and it fits great. The only minor drawback is that sometime the phone doesn't automatically reconnects it when you need to.

    These buds won’t work for everybody. So with that being said I absolutely love them because I hate to keep pushing buds into my ear canal. And I work in a warehouse so I need to hear everything around me. The sound quality is excellent as with any Bose. I don’t talk to anyone so I don’t care about a microphone but everyone hears me clearly when I do talk. I got these for comfort. So if you love regular earbuds these probably won’t be for you.
