    These earbuds have been amazing. The sound quality is great! They never feel like they're going to fall off my ears, and I have tested them by shaking my head with force. I have had these for over a month now and haven't had to charge them once. Though, that could be because I mostly use them during my workouts and not all day long. Still great battery life!

    Bose Ultra Open: Premium Sound, All-Day Comfort

    The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds in White Smoke are a total game-changer. The clip-on design is so comfortable you’ll genuinely forget you’re wearing them, and the "White Smoke" finish looks more like a sleek accessory than tech gear. The sound is surprisingly rich for an open-ear design, and the spatial audio makes it feel like the music is floating around you. They are perfect for staying aware of your surroundings while enjoying premium sound.

    I bought these to try something different. I'm a big AirPod user. Both Pro and Max. These are nice to not have my ears entirely contained or plugged. I was very pleasantly surprised with the sound quality. These are great to use when I'm around my family and still want to be involved with what's going on around us.

    Really nice pair of earbuds. I think if we were judging it on quality of audio alone (Based on the Open Ear market) They would probably be one of the best... but that's it. My two biggest CONS: Comfort/Fit and Pairing Comfort wise they're not terrible... for the first few minutes. After prolonged use I have a numbing/irritable sensation around the area where I'm wearing them. I do find the area in my ear where they clipped to be numb even after I'm no longer using them, but not for long. Also the idea wasn't bad, like the audio quality they have is great but the method of attachment is questionable. I'm always readjusting so that I can get a better audio experience. And no, they wont fall off at least not for me. Pairing annoys me. Its been often that I've reached for one ear piece and then maybe a few minutes later I reach for the second to wear both and boom! audio out of one nothing out of the other. **A workaround? figured out that i have to open the case up after I put the second bud on so they can both sync up. A weird issue I've had is audio cutting off. Happens RARELY and for a split second so I haven't bothered with it. A very negligible issue for now. SO after all this do I still use them? YES. I just love the audio quality compared to my openrun pro's to much to leave them. I do find myself alternating between the two tho. If one dies cause I forgot to charge them I just grab the second pair.

    Amazing design. Earlobes needed to use.

    Great set and very useful. Best part of these is you can listen to tunes and still hear everything around you while cliped to ears. But if you dont want to hear anyone you can hook them to your earlobe to hold them in the ear canal like regular ear buds. Super useful for work. Only problem if you do not have earlobs there is nothing for them to hold onto and the only way to listen to them is hooked to the outer ear so you can hear them and everyone else around you at the same time. People next to you can not hear the music playing. Perfect to pass the time at work etc. Can be used to make and receive calls.

    An Upgrade

    Definitely an upgrade to other competitors. It is an investment considering the price, but the sound quality and battery life is just different. These last way longer than 3 hours. I will say that these are anatomy dependent to the ear and can cause irritation if you're doing long runs (like me) or longer workouts. If sound quality is what you are looking for than this is it for you!

    This is one of the best Bluetooth earbuds I have ever had. If you wear glasses and love listening to your music or on the phone quite a lot with work stuff, I think these earbuds are your best choice. Sounds quality is great. I give it 5stars

    The best earphones out there. I bought these because my Apple AirPods would fall out of my ears or get really sweaty and dirty. These will stay on for entire workout, even while I run. Because they are looped on the outside of the ear they do not get dirty with sweat build up. Love that the volume is powerful yet you can still be aware of your surroundings.

    I really like the fit of the Bose Open Ear AirPods. They sit comfortably on the ear, and I often forget I’m even wearing them—they’re that lightweight and unobtrusive. The design is secure and doesn’t loosen over time, even with all-day wear. I also appreciate how seamlessly they switch between devices. If you have two phones, for example, they automatically connect to whichever one you’re using without any hassle. However, the biggest drawback is the sound quality in noisy environments. While they perform well in quiet settings, it’s hard to hear anything clearly when there’s a lot of background noise. That’s the tradeoff for having an open-ear design—but something to keep in mind if you plan to use them in louder spaces.

      Hi! Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We’re really glad to hear that you’re enjoying the sound quality of your Ultra Open Earbuds and that the open‑ear design works well for staying aware of your surroundings while walking. That’s exactly what the earbuds were designed for.

      We also appreciate your note about using them on the subway. Since the Ultra Open Earbuds don’t include noise cancelling and are engineered to keep external sounds audible, loud environments like subways can make it difficult to hear your content clearly. Your feedback is valuable, and it helps others understand what these earbuds are best suited for.

      Thank you again for sharing your experience, we truly appreciate it.

    Usually I buy Samsung Galaxy headphones to match with my phone; however, I wanted to try something different. I have to say that these are WONDERFUL. The cuff is weird at first, but you will get use to it.

    Surprisingly excellent sound and clarity and the best pair of earbuds anyone could chose for gym, running, or any other physical activity. After finding the spot on your ear you feel comfortable with, you will not notice them at all. Very nice hightly recommended.
