    Pros: * Good sound quality when listening to music * Comfortable open-ear design Cons: * Volume is too low * Poor phone call quality * Expensive for the performance Review: The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds sound good when listening to music, and the open-ear design is comfortable. However, the volume is not loud enough. When using just one earbud, it is especially quiet, and even with both earbuds in I have to turn my phone volume all the way up just to hear clearly. Phone calls are the biggest issue. The call quality is awful and most people on the other end cannot hear or understand me. This makes them unreliable for calls. Other users have reported similar problems with microphone and call quality on these earbuds. Overall, while the music quality is decent, the low volume and poor call quality make these hard to justify for the price. If I had been able to try them in the store first, I would not have purchased them.

      Hi RobertM, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoy the sound quality when listening to music and find the open‑ear design comfortable. For the volume concern, please ensure your earbuds are updated to the latest firmware through the Bose app, as updates can improve audio performance. You can also try switching to a different music app or adjusting the volume settings on your mobile device. Here’s a helpful link you can check out: https://bose.life/47kJjb2

      Regarding call quality, microphone performance can sometimes be affected by fit or obstruction. Please make sure the microphones are not blocked by hair, clothing, or headwear, and that the earbuds are positioned correctly. We’d love to help improve your call quality experience with the earbuds, here’s a helpful guide you can use: https://bose.life/4rZhmhd

    Unique product, sometimes forget there in my ear. Adjustable sound and good battery life. Feel good on the ear and app is great. Doesn’t make your ear hurt like apple products. Can hear people and listen to music

    I love these earbuds! They’re extremely comfortable, and I often forget I’m wearing them. The sound quality is excellent for open-ear style, and I can still hear my surroundings — perfect for daily activities. The Midnight Violet color is beautiful, pairing was easy, and battery life has been great. Highly recommend!

    Best pair of open ear headphones I’ve ever owned and I’ve had many different pairs/brands. These are it for me. Great sound, lightweight, comfortable. No downsides. Dropped them hundreds of times and still held up.

    ❤️ My Bose earbuds

    I purchased these ear buds to replace my I pods while I exercise because my iPods won’t stay in. And these Bose earbuds have wonderful sound and stay in place even when I run. I am in love with them. They are easy to pause or switch songs and answering a phone call is effortless. So comfortable and convenient.

    Love this design. No more ear buds falling out of my ear and pressing buttons trying to get them back in place. Great sound in volume and clarity. Having some hearing loss these are still clear even on low volume. Not the best for airplane rides but still effective to enjoy movies or books. Worked great jamming to music while using a chainsaw.

    Really love the sound quality and feel of the buds. They are so comfortable on my ear that I forget they are there when not listening to my music or taking a call. Only con is that they do sometimes loose connection with my apple phone. But it is not often and a quick fix.

    Overall these headphones are fantastic. I purchased them because i work in an automotive shop. I wanted to be able to hear my mysic at work, but easily be able to have conversations with co-workers if necceesary. The headphones are fantastic at that. I can listen to my tunes all day, the battery life is great. I use them for about 8 hours a day total and they are comfortable all day. I charge them in the case over lunch and never run out of battery during the day. So far it seems i only have to charge the case only once a week! The audio quality is surpisingly good for the size and style of headphone. Overall i would definitely reccomend these headphones if you also want to be able to hear your surroundings! 4.7/ 5. I would say really my only complaint with them is they can be a bit tricky to get in the perfect position!

    Sound quality is great and they feel so comfortable i forget they are there. Only downside was the mic quality an BT connection. Sound was apparently to low or hard to hear and it kept disconnecting/reconnecting from my devices.

    This earbuds are amazing. I love the new design. They are light and comfortable. They are flexible, yet easy to connect and control. The noise canceling is good and also allows for sufficient noise penetration in a work environment. They are great additions to my “toys” .

    Best Open Earbuds!!

    Awesome sound for Open Earbuds. Good bass, mids and highs! The Bass definitely rumbles although not as in the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds but you can't compare Open vs. In-Ear. But I was impressed with the crisp sound (Bose audio signature). They also sound very loud. Just be sure you are wearing them the right way to get the best audio. Super comfortable for all day without any discomfort. The battery lasts ALL day!! Call quality is good also. Only downside is that the price is too high, $300 vs the QC Ultra that are now for $249.

    Returned airpods pro for these

    My husband gifted me with airpods pro but I knew pretty quickly they wouldnt work for me. He went back to bestbuy and exchanged them for these. These are the best earbuds ive ever had. My only complaint is they are so light I often forget I have them in. Sometimes with the immersive sound on I can't tell if I forgot to connect them because the sound seems like its coming from the room. That's a good thing but its crazy just how well it works. I have very small ears so in earbuds are always uncomfortable and fall out no matter which size I use. I also just think its gross putting stuff in my ears all the time even though clean. They also have multipoint, so can connect to multiple blhetooth devices but sometimes you get crackling if you have more than one of those devices with bluetooth on at once. These work really well for me and im glad something like this exists.

    Sound quality was great, but they never fit right, just not large enough for a big head. I kept these and do use them for a backup, but rarely wear them. If they fit right they would have been perfect. This is my heads fault, but despite my problem, they are comfortable and don't feel like they are there and the sound quality is great

    The sound is nice they’re a little pricey but not having something stuck directly in my ear is better because no headache after a long time. They are light weight also.

    These were an early Christmas gift to daughter. They are very nice looking on. Like ear jewelry. They're a grayish white color. She had me listen and the sound was exceptional. I contribute that to the open-ear design. Wish they made them with hearing device capabilities like my Apple pro2. Also, the fit is more secure. They don't interfere with her multiple ear piercings.

    I purchased these as a gift for my dad and he loved them. He previously had AirPods. He loves how comfortable they sit on the ear without adding any pressure. The sound quality is amazing and he likes how you can still hear what’s around you while listening to music. The battery life last a good time and charging them is quick and easy. Overall he was extremely satisfied with them!
