    Fabulous sound. Bought these for use while walking outdoors. Great sound no matter how windy and I still can hear what’s going on around me. I will occasionally get confused when using these at home when I’ve been listening a long time. I will think I need to turn off the stereo system then realize it’s off already then realize I have the ear buds on. That’s how good the sound is. I would absolutely buy these again Now for the downside. I’ve had these a couple of weeks now. The software doesn’t auto switch an incoming phone call to the earbuds if you answer using the phone answer button. You have to manually move it. The incoming quality is great. But I am getting complaints from the other side that my voice sounds tinny or words get dropped. If your primary use case is talking on the phone I would not recommend these. Finally on three different occasions I’ve put them on fully charged and let them run until they die. No more than 5 hours each time. If you want them for a longer event such as plane ride or marathon they may run out. I’ve considered buying a second pair so I can swap them when the battery dies because they are that good. I’d rather spend another $300 and have two pair to cover longer listening times than switch to a different brand.

    OMG I love these earbuds. The performance is just great. Easy to use. I am a Bose fan. I have just about everything they the put out. The earbuds are so light that you really don't feel them in your ear. If it wasn't for the (sound great) music still playing I honestly would not have believe they were in my ear.

    I bought these and the Shokz Ear clip. The sound is not there. Im not sure if they were defective but the the Clips from Shokz were louder and better in sound. And when talking on the phone my wife could hear me much better with Shokz. I liked the look of the Bose more and they were a little more comfortable but they were more expensive and not as a great as the Shokz so I returned the Bose.

    The sound quality is incredible, I love the design, especially if you have small ears like me; however, it's a shame that the calls are terrible, people hear you badly and are far away.

    I have AirPods but needed something that would still allow me to hear what was going on around me. These allow you to hear your surroundings yet deliver the most amazing sound!!! Bose has done it again! They wrap around the ear easily and you can barely feel them.

    Very comfortable for long term wearing. First open ear type buds i've gotten and I love them. I still need noise cancelling buds for things like mowing, but these are great for exercise/daily headphones.

    The best buds ever

    I am a "loyal" Bose fan. But I must say when I first purchased the Ultra Open-Earbuds I was a little skeptical especially when I was having trouble placing them behind my ears. But after I got the hang of it (they are very light weight) I was a believer. As always with Bose the sound is great. These buds are so light I have to keep placing my hand to my ears to make sure they are still there. I wish they came in other colors.

    Great Sound, but Falls Short of High Expectations I recently had the opportunity to try out the open Bose headphones, and while the sound quality is undeniably impressive, I found myself somewhat underwhelmed given the high expectations I had for this renowned brand. I ultimately gave them a three star rating, as I felt they didn't quite meet the lofty standards I had set for them. Of course, this assessment is purely subjective and based on my personal opinion. One of the standout features of these headphones is their sound quality. The audio is crisp, clear, and immersive, allowing me to enjoy my favorite music with a level of detail that truly enhances the listening experience. The open design also provides a more natural soundstage, which I appreciated during my music sessions. However, where these headphones fell short for me was in their overall performance compared to the hype surrounding the Bose brand. I had expected a more exceptional build quality and a more robust set of features considering the premium price point. I found the design to be somewhat lacking in terms of comfort, with the ear feeling a bit too snug during extended wear. Furthermore, I encountered some issues with stability, which was surprising given Bose's reputation for producing reliable audio devices. The battery life also didn't quite live up to my expectations, requiring more frequent charging than I would have liked. In conclusion, while the open Bose headphones deliver impressive sound quality, they ultimately left me wanting more in terms of comfort, features, and reliability. It's important to note that my review is based on my personal expectations and experiences, so others may have a different opinion. Overall, I gave them a three star rating, reflecting my mixed feelings about their performance relative to the brand's reputation.

    Unfortunately this purchase has been real disappointing. The headphones fit great and are super light weight... However, the quality in sound is rough. The sound is hollow and even after adjusting all the settings the volume was never close to enough. I need an option thats not inear but, sound level sacrifice is just not worth it. Hope it works for someone else, this is not practical enough for me.
