Great earbuds, but be careful!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great-sounding open-air earbuds. So light you really would forget they're on your ears but for the wonderful sound, but be careful. While you can't shake them off during exercise, you can easily brush them off. After pausing my music while in a convenience store, one of the buds came off when put my hood back on in a slight rain. Panic! Fortunately, it got stuck between my hoodie and my shoulder. So, great earbuds, but be careful.

Great sound but minor issues
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had these for about 2 weeks now and I think the sound on them are really good for what they are. Open ear headphones. I ride the metro so these are perfect for staying aware of my surroundings. The volume levels are great but I have noticed that sometimes a drop in volume at times. I could be listening to something and it sounds crystal clear at about 70% volume, but sometimes (in the same environment) I would be at 150% volume and can barely hear anything. I've had to close out all apps and restart my phone and the sound would go back to normal. I've had one connectivity issue so far where my phone would not connect again to these earbuds for approximately 20 minutes. I restarted my phone, disconnected the headphones from my device, placed the headphone back into the case and nothing. It wasn't until about 20 minutes in the case and it began working again. And yes they were at 100 % battery. I had just finished charging them and was headed to grab lunch but they wouldn't connect. I want to give these a higher review but right now I see a few problems happening in just a little over 2 weeks and I hope they don't continue. If the problems don't persist in the next few months I will gladly bump up the rating on the review.

Overall great sound quality but connectivity issue
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the sound quality and the light design of the earbuds but I am having some short connectivity loss often (like a cracking sound in both ears) when I run with them. I hope Bose can fix this issue soon. Firmware has been updated and I have no issues with other Bose earbuds in same condition.

Great fit and great sound!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The fit is amazing and when you move around you feel like they will get lose but they don't. I always have issues with earbuds getting lose while walking - not here. Also the sounds is very good. I heard complaints about the bass but I don't see any issue at all. Yes, it's not going to sound as immersive as the top noise cancelling earbuds but that's not what they are going for. We will see how they last but the comfort and sounds quality can't be beat!

Sounds great but you have to be in a quiet place.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned the item. In a quiet environment they sound amazing and are the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used. Unfortunately when used around even a moderate amount of noise, the headphones get drowned out. At the gym, I had them at max volume and could barely hear them over the noises of the machines. They were unfortunately completely unusable in an outdoor environment as even the wind was making them hard to hear.

Posted .Hello,
I am sorry you are disappointed with your Ultra Open Earbuds when you are using them in a busy environment. Due to their open factor, and because they don't have noise cancellation, you will be able to listen to your music but also your surrounding. So indeed if you are in a loud environment, you might want to use a pair of in-ear earbuds if you want to focus on your music.
Best regards,

I love them
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The comfort is the most important thing out of these, I have sensative ears and can't wear in the ear buds for very long, these I can wear for hours with no problem, I don't have to keep taking them out or pausing music when someone talks to me, and the sound is great.

Good for what designed for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great for what they are designed for which good sound and still hear your surroundings. I wish they were louder and almost returned them because in some setting may not be loud enough for you. At high volume people right next to you can hear them. Great for traveling with my wife and still hear what she is trying to tell me but not so great at a loud gym.

Great fit. It sound is sub-par
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are definitely the most comfortable earphones I have ever had, hands down. There were a few times when I honestly forgot I was wearing one of them. Once you get them on, they stay in place and don’t feel as if they are at risk of falling off. As for the cons: - really takes some practice to put them on, especially if your trying one-handed. I could never quite get the hang of it. - the sound is sub-par in my opinion. This is mostly due to the “open ear” design. Everyone’s ears are different so they quite naturally can’t fit optimally for everyone. Due to this I could never get the sound “projected” properly to my ear canal(s). Found I needed the volume at 75% or higher - preset equalizer settings need some work, but it’s possible the hardware and open ear design allow in too much ambient noise for it to really make a difference. - they would sporadically disconnect and then reconnect when playing audio for more than 25-30 minutes

Posted .I'm glad you find your Ultra Open Earbuds stable and comfortable to wear! It's true that wearing any new earbud product can take a little getting used to, however you should adapt to your earbuds quickly.
If you're finding that the audio and EQ response are below your expectations, then firstly make sure they're being worn properly, as per the following link: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000001brKkAAI&language=en_US.
Lastly, if you're experiencing disconnections, I would suggest rebooting your smartphone, and also trying a second device to compare the performance there. If this issue persists, our support team will happily assist you further: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

Bowls open your earbuds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can’t go wrong with the open ear Bose earbuds for sound quality and protecting of your ears not having to insert them in your ear canal. It saves on damage to your inner ear. I suggest you buy this product in the Bose system sounds great so if you’re looking for a pair of earbuds, try those out I recommend it.

Great design!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They fit better than I thought, and the open feel is great when you need to be aware of your surroundings. The angle is a bit tricky for maximum sound, my only gripe. Physical buttons are incredibly easy to use even with gloves.

Not worth sacrificing volume and quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately this purchase has been real disappointing. The headphones fit great and are super light weight... However, the quality in sound is rough. The sound is hollow and even after adjusting all the settings the volume was never close to enough. I need an option thats not inear but, sound level sacrifice is just not worth it. Hope it works for someone else, this is not practical enough for me.
