Good headphones but has some drawbacks
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For open headpuones, the sound quality is very good. The headphones are comfortable to wear as well. Battery life seems great so far as well. Why not 5 stars? These headphones have some big drawbacks too. When i answer phone calls, nearly everyone has said rhe microphone isn't very good. Also, the controls other than pause and restart playing don't seem to work. I'm unable to change volume for example. I have to do many of the controls though my phone.

Love the alternative to plugged in earphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a perfect alternative to earphones if you are not comfortable to continuously have earphones plugged into your ear. Can use it for extended duration without any discomfort. Sound quality is also good.

Would not recommend to anybody period
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The fit is amazing, very light weight I give it 5 stars. The overall rating I give 2 stars 1 because the incoming call volume is horrible. I literally can hear any and everything they’re not the least bit noise canceling. Now can I wear them at work and most think they’re a thick pair of earrings yes but not worth my 320.00 I gave them to my husband. Beautiful design but would not recommend to an enemy. The volume is low compared to apple air pods. I spent more time saying what did you say. May be okay for working out listening to low volume but for anything else.

Earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very stylish and work well overall. The sound is good and they look great. However, during phone calls, people sometimes have trouble hearing me. Also, they don’t work with Siri, which is a bit disappointing.

Got iPhone same issue. People can’t hear what I say clearly. Microphones are hidden. I tried voice recording it’s feels like 1950s radio. That’s the Main and only down side.

Love these
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not loved the ear pods that insert into my ear. They are uncomfortable after a short period of time and they never truly fit well. These are great - super sound quality and wrap around your outer ear. Love these!

Incredible for their purpose
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Understand what you are buying and you will love them. These are not audiophile grade headphones. If you are looking for noise cancellation heavy bass and high volumes these are not for you. These serve a purpose. For what they are the sound quality is quite good. I bought these for biking and for the office. They excel at the office. I use them for calls, as a headset for listening to music etc. I can have these on playing music and still hear people approach my office and speak to them and hear them no problem. They are discreet and not extremely noticable. They are light weight and very comfortable. I wear them for hours at a time. I walk around with these not playing anything and forget they are on which is nice. Just buy them for what they are for.

Best selection!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the Bose Ultra Open-Ear True Wireless Earbuds in black, and they exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is outstanding, with crisp highs and deep bass that provide an immersive listening experience without isolating you from your surroundings. The open-ear design ensures comfort even during long periods of use, making them perfect for outdoor activities or extended wear. The battery life is impressive, lasting up to 8 hours on a single charge, with additional charges from the portable case. Connectivity is stable, and the intuitive touch controls are easy to use. These earbuds are a fantastic choice for anyone seeking top-notch sound quality and comfort.

Comfortable Fit and Amazing Sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bose Ultra Open-Ear True Wireless earbuds are a game changer. The open-ear design feels incredibly comfortable—I can wear them for hours without any pressure or fatigue. They stay secure even during workouts, but still let me stay aware of my surroundings. The sound quality is exactly what you’d expect from Bose: clear, balanced, and powerful. Music feels immersive, with great bass that doesn’t overpower the mids and highs. Calls are also crystal clear, and the noise management is impressive for an open-ear style. Battery life is solid, lasting easily through my day, and the charging case is compact and easy to carry. Pairing with my devices was seamless, and the controls are intuitive.

I've had 4 BOSE Earbud products go bad in a row
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Positive notes first: ---- - The actual buds that go into your ears are comfortable, and the sound is great and seems to be very private while also allowing you to be aware of surroundings. I use it for hiking and trail running primarily. They stay put and are a great design themselves. The cons: ---- I was also a customer of BOSE for the Sports Open "over ear" series. Collectively: I have had to do 4 straight replacements of one variety of another with their products. For the sports open ear: I had to replace once two charging stands and a third replacement for a earpiece that went bad. For this new ultra setup: I now have my first charging case to replace. EACH of these replacements has occurred within 6 months to a year across the board. It was so frequent, in fact: that I remained within warranty with BOSE for all of my replacements of my BOSE sport. The bose ultra case managed to last me up until just past my 1 year anniversary with the product and so thus im stuck paying $100 for a replacement case on amazon. THeir charging stands and cases, simply put: are VERY cheap. You'll run into issues with the pins connecting or getting jammed into the small spaces. You'll feel the cheapness and how delicate they are. The only reason the bose ultra lasted the full year is I used them signifcantly less than my bose sport. Im confident they would've broken within first 6months to year as well had I used them as often as the sport open ear. BOSE is "getting away with this" with me as a customer simply by having a design that is superior to the competitors so far with open ear. However I cannot wait until competitors start to match them on good solutions for open ear wireless buds (not in-ear) because I am more than ready to ditch this brand. Their stuff simply does not last and you WILL be sending it back for a replacement if in warranty OR be replacing a case or bud soon enough. --- Note that for SOUND QUALITY, BATTERY LIFE, and CONNECTIVITY I'd give better star rating than "overall". Battery life I am giving a 2 star because in reality the battery charging is always an issue. However when you DO charge them the charge length is fine to get through a nice hike, etc. I've been happy with that piece when they actually work.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I loved these. I’m one who doesn’t like to have earphones go in my ears. But the comfort and lightness of them was fantastic. And they stay on throughout my workouts no worrying about them falling off. The sound was amazing. I only wished they had a tracking in case they get lost.

Good, but not at that price.
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good wireless earbuds with a few glaring issues that hold them back from being great. The Good: Despite my initial fears, I love how these fit. I've never had issues with comfort. So much so that I no longer want to use the standard, in-ear earbuds. Having your ears free is so much nicer! They sound good! But with an asterisk... I'm not an audiophile, so I don't have the ear for different kinds of sound. But they are clear, no distortion, and I have no issue with how they sound. Physical control buttons! Touch panels are awful, so having physical buttons to use is great! They're the kind that you have to press and hold in different ways, but I'll take what I can get. I mostly use them for one-press play/pause. Easy to set up, and the app lets you set up the different audio modes easily. The Bad: Another app you're forced to use... Seriously, it gets tiring to have to download a new app for everything. The asterisk about sound? The default Stereo mode is not very good. Muted, dull, and not all that clear. Once you swap it to Immersive Audio, however, they pick up. Immersive Audio is a neat gimmick, but it's just that. A gimmick. I'm sure some people would like it, but I leave it on the motion one just for the better sound. The Ugly: That price is FAR too high for what these are! They're good, but nothing close to $300 good! Maybe $100, I'd argue you had something there. As much as I like the fit and think they sound good? No thank you. This is my second pair since my first decided to begin failing on me after a year of ownership. The case, for whatever reason, refused to charge if it was not being actively messed with. I'd only really use the left one, which is the one that would be dead the next day. Fully charged case and everything, but my bud would be dead unless I opened the lid, removed the bud, placed it back, and then it would charge. So... Good earbuds for way too much money, considering that these, like all wireless earbuds, are just rentals. You're going to scrap these in the future. Three batteries in these so ONE of them is going to give up one day. If you can get them at a massive discount, I'd recommend it. Do NOT pay full price.

Posted .We appreciate your detailed review! It’s great to hear that the fit and sound quality worked well for you, and that you found the physical buttons to be a huge plus. We understand the frustration with needing another app, however with the Bose app you can have control over multiple products using a single App. Your insight on long-term durability is also an important consideration. If you ever run into issues, we recommend reaching out to our support teams directly. You can get in contact via Social Media, or using this link: https://bose.life/globalsupport.
