Customers appreciate the Ultra Open-Ear True Wireless Open Earbuds for their excellent sound quality, comfortable fit, and long battery life. The open-ear design is also a plus, allowing users to hear their surroundings. However, some customers have experienced connectivity issues and feel the volume could be louder. A few also believe the earbuds are overpriced.

    After three months of owning them the right earbud wasn’t working anymore. I’m going to bestbuy now to figure it out, but if I get nothing out of this I recommend not buying this product. Besides that the battery life is great, stick in my ear pretty well but if your in a loud environment probably don’t buy this product.

    Sore ears Had to return

    I tried these Bose ultra open ear buds and the sound was what you’d expect from Bose but they made my ears very sore after only one day of use. They squeezed the cartilage of the ear which drove me crazy and after a few minutes made my ear sore. I kept wearing them and rotated one ear at a time for my meetings all day thinking I may have just needed to break them in, but both ears were just so sore. I liked that they stayed outside of the ear and the sound was amazing but I had to return because they were not comfortable for me. I tried them in different places by sliding them up and down the ear but that didn’t help.

      Hello Alanna, the Ultra Open earbuds have flexible joints, light-as-air grip, and they will wrap around your ears instead of fitting inside them, they’re incredibly comfortable and super stable. For when you want to get your run on, or just to run your errands, they’ll hug your ears all day. To ensure that you get the most comfort from your earbuds, please feel free to reach out to our technical support teams, who will be more than happy to assist you further: bose.life/3rykPZR.

      We appreciate your feedback! Due to the open design of the earbuds, they do not feature noise cancellation. This model has been created with awareness at the forefront and allows you to enjoy your favorite media while remaining alert to the surrounding world. Let us know if we can assist further!

    Not totally thrilled with them. They clip on ok but the sound seems to be muffled with how they fall in my ear. One of the buds doesn't seem to connect 100% of the time and I have to put it back in case and then try again. I have them linked to phone and computer, if computer is on and I want to use them with phone they won't connect. Haven't figured out how to correct this other than have computer off.

      Sorry to hear you're not completely happy with your Ultra Open Earbuds, though they do seem to fit you well. If your earbuds are sounding muffled, follow the guide here to make sure you're wearing them optimally: https://support.bose.com/s/article/ult-headphoneopn-wearing-and-adjusting-your-earbuds---ka08c000001brkkaai?language=en_US. As for the connection issues you mentioned, it is best to wait until the right earbud's battery level has been announced before you put the left earbud in. Lastly, you can store up to 6 devices in the earbuds' device list, however you can only connect and play audio from one device at a time. I hope this information is useful! Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose
