A different way of hearing the world
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these as gifts for family members who like to go on outdoor walks. The ability for the ear buds to not actively block outside noise is great. The only minir annoyance is thst the battery level between L and R is different. One will go to 90% before the other, but ultimately does not impact performance. Would recommend!

Posted .Hi Amanda, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear you liked the style and look of the earbuds, and we’re sorry to learn you’ve experienced battery and connectivity issues. For reference, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have a battery life of up to 7 hours with Immersive Audio off, 4 hours with Immersive Audio on, and 3 hours with both Immersive Audio and Auto Volume on. The case provides up to 19.5 hours of charge. Earbuds take about 1 hour to fully charge, the case about 3 hours, and a quick 10‑minute charge provides up to 2 hours of use. If one earbud drains faster than expected, here’s a helpful troubleshooting guide you can try: https://bose.life/3Q83OBW
Regarding connectivity, Bluetooth performance can be affected by distance (typically within 30 feet), interference from nearby devices like Wi‑Fi routers or microwaves, outdated firmware, or multiple pairings. To improve stability, keep devices close, update firmware and drivers, disable battery saver mode, and restart both devices to clear temporary glitches. Here’s a guide that may help: https://bose.life/4bEGtAm

Died after 3 months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
