Posted .Hello Reginald,
I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with your Ultra Open Earbuds. Due to their unique open design, they do not have noise cancellation but still offer spatial audio.
If you are looking for noise cancelling earbuds, I would suggest the QuietComfort Earbuds: https://bose.life/4mencJo

Not worth it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality wasnt impressive. People could hear what i was listening to.. The mic was actually awful! Could not hear me on calls what so ever. For the cost of these I was not going to let these key factors not be mind blowing. Cute concept but needs improvements. Returned.

Bad sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.for these beings Bose. I did not like the sound quality. I feel they could have made this much better. I do like the way it fits and does not move from my ear, But I had to return these because I do not compare to an Airpod.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend This product has clarity and comfort. Bad Mic!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I feel this is mainly for joggers and people outdoors that need to pay attention to their surroundings. Not design to talk to people on the phone because it has the worst ever microphone quality like way below -3 star.

Excellent sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound and features. The talking features are good as well.
I would recommend this to a friendNot worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Would not recommended, i bought these as a gift for my brother and while testing them he turned some music on low and i could hear it sitting 5 feet away from him. I get these are better for your ears but you dont want others hearing your conversation or music
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .I'm sorry to hear of your disappointment with the Ultra Open Earbuds, given that you can hear some of your brother's music. The Ultra Open Earbuds feature Bose's OpenAudio technology, which directs rich, deep audio into the customer's ear canal while minimizing sound spillage in other directions. In most environments and at most listening levels, people around the user won’t hear anything. In a very quiet environment, others may hear that something is playing, but they shouldn't be able to hear any detail unless they get up close. If you suspect your brother's earbuds might be spilling too much sound, please contact our support team for further assistance: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support

Posted .Hi there, thank you for your feedback. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are designed with an open‑ear fit so you can stay aware of your surroundings, and each earbud includes two microphones for clear calls. Proper wearing of the earbuds is very important, please ensure that the microphone openings on the inner edges of the earbuds are not blocked. Blocked microphones can result in poor sound quality for the person on the other end of the call.
We’re sorry to hear that you’ve already returned it, but if you still need assistance, here’s a helpful guide: https://bose.life/49cHka5

Not a quality product like Bose normally gives
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are not very good, especially when I talk to people. They hurt your ears after some time, when I take them off, my ears are red. I’m very disappointed in the quality. This is my first time being disappointed by the product Bose. Most all my stuff is Bose, so I know what I’m saying is true

I would recommend this to a friendNothing I liked about them.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They sit awkwardly on your ears. No amount of adjusting helped. This causes the sound to not properly get to your ear. The audio quality was that of something far cheaper. I usually love Bose products but they have seemed to gradually go down in quality with each new item.
