    These didn't really work for me. I could never get them to rest properly on my ear. I was able to make them stay attached but the speakers never aligned to where I could here the music. I had to press on them to get the speaker close enough to my ear drum.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, we really appreciate your feedback. The Ultra Open Earbuds are designed to rest gently on the outer ear using a flexible cuff, delivering spacious sound through OpenAudio technology. For better alignment, you might try rotating the earbuds slightly forward or backward, making sure the ear cuff is seated securely, adjusting them higher or lower on the ear, ensuring the speaker grille is directed toward the ear canal, and keeping hair or accessories from blocking the speaker area.

    These headphones are for office workers. I have been accustomed to using the quietcomfort buds and using these made me realize that. They arent loud and they lack bass. If your environment is really loud, the buds are useless. If you turn up the volume, people can hear your audio. Needless to say, I don't work in an office so i returned them. Plus side, they are comfortable to wear.

      I'm happy to hear you found the Ultra Open Earbuds comfortable to wear! It's true that, compared to our in-ear QuietComfort solutions, the Ultra Open Earbuds won't offer quite the same volume and bass experience. This is due to their open-ear design, which allows customers to enjoy their audio content while still hearing their surroundings. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

    Bose manufactured a solid product. You would think ear fatigue would be a thing but these are comfortable. They are also good with Zoom calls,great addition to my work from home job.

    Bought these for my wife, who has problems with traditional earbuds. They simply just clip on to your ear, and you're ready to go

    Good Earbuds but not for Everyone

    It has great sound quality, as you would expect, but your experience will vary based on your ear size, and if it does sit perfectly, you won't have a good time. I also had weird connection issues especially when my phone was in my pocket. Would have kept them if they were more reasonably priced, but the connection issues and misfit for my ears, makes them not worth it for me.

      Thank you for sharing your honest feedback on the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. Regarding the price, but the distinctive outer‑ear concept clearly stands out as a positive. The open‑ear design delivers sound without sealing off the ear canal, offering a more natural and comfortable listening experience while allowing you to remain aware of your surroundings. While sound expectations vary from one listener to another, the carefully considered design can be a great match for anyone who prioritizes comfort, awareness of their surroundings, and a relaxed, all‑day fit.

    These headphones are just amazing I can sleep with them on. I still notice them on my ears but nothing like in ear headphones. Must haves but I agree with other reviews. Not for everybody if you have larger ears these wont be for you till they make adjustable.
