    Good headphones, phone quality subpar, allergic

    A number of people are looking for alternatives to airpod pro earbuds, and I'm one of them. I have some sort of allergy to the new airpods and the new bose quietcomfort (and ultra) buds and overears, so I tried these after returning the ultra overears because of that allergy. So, first warning, if those allergies affect you, the strap in between the battery and speaker appears made of the same material and while I didnt have an issue immediately, it has come up again more slowly and just where that part touches the skin. Unfortunately I was letting my ears heal a bit from the ultra overears before using these a lot and I'm stuck with them because my return period is over, so if anyone at Bose is reading this and can help, I'd sure appreciate it. To the actual product: I think that overall, these are what I expected as far as music sound goes. Connected to my iOS devices, phone quality is poor. I've been told numerous times I sound awful and have had to remove them to use speaker or another device, unfortunately my use is about 50/50 phone calls and music. I own the glasses and these are definitely a step up in the right direction. I like these better than the openfit and openrun from competitors, but I just cant use them due to whatever all these manufacturers are putting on the silicon/rubber/whatever. Really, if you can fix the phone call quality these are closer to 4.5 stars, if you can make me non-allergic, then I'd give just about anything.

      Thanks for your review of the Ultra Open Earbuds! While I'm happy to hear that you've been enjoying the Bose sound, I am sorry to hear about what appears to be an allergic reaction to part of the product - as well as the phone call issues you've outlined. My suggestion would be to contact Bose's technical support team, so that both issues can be looked at more closely with regards to finding a solution for you. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

    Love these earbuds! I use them for running and they have a great volume and minimum sound leakage. Definitely the right choice over Shokz.

    These are my favorite ear buds so far. I can't use normal in-ear earbuds because they hurt the inside of my ears after a while. The open earbuds I can keep on for hours, for example on a long haul flight. Plus, I like to be aware of my surroundings on a run by myself.

    These are the beest buds i have ever had. Other pods need to be adjusted or you need to pull them out to rub your eat. These stay on while i am walking, running or playing tennis. Best bud to come out!!!!

    After owning Bose, klipsch and Sonos amongst others over the years I’ve concluded I’m a Bose fan. These people put in the work. I was skeptic about these little guys but they blew my mind. I honestly don’t understand how they crank the bass on these. They’re pricey but I would challenge any competitors to equalize with out-ear headphones

    These are really good to listen to music but not good at all for taking calls. If you just need buds for music, I would say get them but if you are trying to take calls with them do not get these model,.
