    An amazing problem solver for me

    Over the years I have used literally dozens of different earbuds from a wide variety of manufacturers as well as many aftermarket ear tips in the search for great sound with a proper fit and seal…my right ear canal is larger than my left so I always end up with a bad seal in my right ear. I’ve tried foam ear tips and while they work well the pressure they create in order to get a proper seal makes them uncomfortable for me after awhile. I have also tried several different open ear buds to solve my ear fit problem but the sound was always lacking in the bass department. The other day while browsing YouTube, the algorithm put a video for the Huawei ear clip in my feed and while not available in the U.S., I noticed that it was frequently compared to the Bose Ultra Open-Ears so down the rabbit hole I went and that brings us to this review. Let me begin by saying if you are wanting ANC these are not for you BUT if you want full rich sound with a comfortable fit while being able to talk with someone when needed without needing to take out your earbuds then the Bose Ultra Open-Ears should work perfectly…they are the solution that I have been looking for. Highs, mids and bass are all present providing a full rich sound ( not booming bass but more than enough for great sound) with a 3 band equalizer built into the app, allowing you to customize your preferred sound signature. The immersion mode widens the sound stage to provide depth to your music and the app even has head tracking as well as auto volume settings. As for comfort, after getting used to having the Open-Ears on ( think of wearing an ear cuff) you will forget they are even there as they provide the perfect amount of pressure to keep them in place without fear of losing them or being uncomfortable at all. I think I have finally found my perfect fit.

    These headphones are so comfortable that you can wear them all day without even knowing they are on. I listen to music and watch tv with them on. I love that you can hear everything around you while still hearing your program. Way to go Bose.

    Great headphones, the multi device syncing can be a little annoying at times but the audio quality is very good and they rest on your ear very comfortably I have even forgot they were there at times.

    BUY THESE NOW! I absolutely love these! They don’t hurt my ears at all and they are perfect if you talk on the phone a lot, listen to audiobooks and music while still hearing your kids or what’s going on around you with also getting great sound from these ear phones. Highly, highly recommended these to anyone with ear fatigue!

    These are both great, and not great at the same time. The greats- they STAY IN PLACE. These will not fall out or off while running, which is specifically why I bought them. They also sound wonderful! The not as great- They sometimes switch listening mode on their own, so the music will sound surround and full, then switch to a more transparent, dull sound all of the sudden. Sometimes the only fix is simply opening the Bose app then it correct itself, so unsure whats going on. Or I'll get a weird connection interference sound mid songs if other bluetooth devices are around it. Since this pair can be updated, hopefully these are software fixes. Once fixed this is a definitely 5 star pair of headphones.

      Hey Matthew,

      Many thanks for leaving your initial thoughts of the Ultra Open Earbuds! It's great to hear you chose this product for your music listening needs and it's fantastic to learn they have fit you well, especially when you've been exercising.

      With your feedback regarding them switching automatically, this clearly isn't normal behavior and not something that is expected to happen so we'd encourage you to reach out to us so we can learn more about the problem. If it's happening randomly, I'd also suggest resetting the buds and setting them up as a new device to see if a fresh connection makes any changes to performance. You can find instructions for resetting the buds here: https://bose.life/4eSKFfe.

    A.M.A.Z.I.N.G The quality on these earbuds that do not even seal your ear canal is very impressive. You can be aware of your surroundings while still being able to listen to whatever you need. The microphone is very good as well for phone calls. The best part for me is the comfortability. I can forget I have them on. I have never been able to sleep with earbuds and I was very happy I was able to do so with these. I tried the Sony’s earbuds and they felt very cheap compared to the Bose. I do not regret spending my money on these at all.

    These headphones are really cute and comfortable, especially if you don’t like in-ear earbuds and still want to hear what’s going on around you. The sound quality is good, but even on the lower volume setting they can feel a bit too loud. Call quality isn’t great, which is a downside if you plan to use them for work or frequent phone calls. They’re nice for travel or casual use, but not something I’d fully rely on for everything.

    They are great! I can still hear music/ taking to person on the ear buds and also hear my surroundings. They are not tight and can adjust well , by sliding them up slightly on the ear , so that you can heart them and not have to take them off completely.

    These are amazing. Generates crisp, clear sound while allowing you to hear your surroundings. Ideal for the office or while out for jog. They stay on your ear lobe much more securely than I thought they would. No more trying to lodge pods into your ear canal and get them to stay!

      Hi, Ryan! Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! We’re happy to hear that the earbuds fit well and deliver sound quality you enjoy. You also mentioned that they could be louder, and we appreciate you letting us know.

      Sometimes, reduced volume can happen when the earbuds aren’t seated properly in the ear. A quick adjustment, such as gently rotating the earbuds for a secure seal, can often enhance both loudness and overall audio performance.

      At Bose, we’re committed to making sure you get the best possible experience. To help you get the most out of your earbuds, we’ve prepared a simple guide that walks you through proper fit and sound optimization: https://bose.life/49NIHLr

    Sound better than expected. They do squeeze my ear a little bit and slightly uncomfortable, but goes away after after a few minutes. The physical button on each earbud works as expected and easy to use. Used them at work, and laying down watching tv and no issues with them falling out or moving. Biggest difficulty I have experienced is putting both earbuds on and positioning them the same way, such that the speaker is the same direction and distance from my ear canal, which I did notice made a significant difference on how loud they are and how balanced the volume is between both earbuds.

    Amazing audio quality considering they are not truly in my ears and the comfort is surprising as I forget they are even on. Great for any outdoor activity where you still want to hear your surroundings. Highly recommend!!!!
