Customers are saying
Customers are positive about the exceptional sound quality, comfortable fit, and lightweight design of these earbuds, which many users find ideal for smaller ears. While the battery life and open-ear style are also frequently praised, some users have expressed concerns regarding occasional connectivity issues and a maximum volume level that feels too low. Additionally, a small portion of customers feel that the product is priced higher than its overall value.

Its alright
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the design but - battery dies easily. Can't last a 6 hour flight. Connecting to phone is tricky everytime. Need to remove it so many times, put it back to the case, then put it back to my ear again. Anyway, this is just the first version - can't wait for them to make this one better.

Sounds great but you have to be in a quiet place.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned the item. In a quiet environment they sound amazing and are the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used. Unfortunately when used around even a moderate amount of noise, the headphones get drowned out. At the gym, I had them at max volume and could barely hear them over the noises of the machines. They were unfortunately completely unusable in an outdoor environment as even the wind was making them hard to hear.

Posted .Hello,
I am sorry you are disappointed with your Ultra Open Earbuds when you are using them in a busy environment. Due to their open factor, and because they don't have noise cancellation, you will be able to listen to your music but also your surrounding. So indeed if you are in a loud environment, you might want to use a pair of in-ear earbuds if you want to focus on your music.
Best regards,

Buy the Shokz Instead
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.People constantly complain about not being able to hear me. Ear buds will connect and disconnect at random. Volume isn't great. They are very comfortable and can be worn all day. I would forget they were there. Button function is nice.

Posted .Hi David, thanks for your feedback regarding the Ultra Open Earbuds. Great to hear you were impressed by the level of comfort offered, and the button function. For poor voice pickup, this is generally attributed to the way they are placed on the ears. There are tiny holes on the buds which work best when directed towards your mouth and if they're too high, it'll direct external sound into the mics. I recommend readjusting the placement and try another call to see if that helps.

Fantastic sound let down by call quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These buds have great sound for an open ear pair of true wireless buds. They are the holy grail of comfort, sound, and the ability to hear surrounding noise. The one big drawback is that call quality is horrendous to the point of being un-useable. On runs, if I get a call, the person can’t hear me well at all and it’s impossible to hold a conversation. I’m really bummed by this as they do everything else extremely well. I like the controls being a button rather than touch, and comfort is just fantastic as they clip on your ears. Bose really dropped the ball on calls.

Posted .I'm very happy to hear you're enjoying the comfort and sound experience that the Ultra Open Earbuds have to offer. If the people you are calling are unable to hear you, I would recommend making sure each earbud is sitting on your ear at about 45°. It's also a good idea to remove any headgear, and make sure the microphone holes on the inner edges of the earbuds are not blocked. If the call issues persist, our customer support team will be happy to help you further: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

Almost a keeper
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This are very confortable. Sound quality is good has some bass. Call quality is what killed it for me. The design is almost perfect just need to be thinner. The hwawei ones ultimately were better with the same design.

Not great
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are nice, the sound while listening to music is great. However—when phone calls come in the sound cuts in and out, the person on the other line can hear themselves speaking as if it’s echoing back to them. The volume goes up and down so they can’t really tell what you’re saying to them. The battery life in standard listening mode is approximately 7/8hrs and in immersive listening mode is approximately 2/3hrs. The case charges pretty fast and the headphones charge quickly too. For $300 headphones there shouldn’t be any sound issues so I wound up returning them.

Almost 5 stars
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's actually about 4.7 stars. They sound great and I actually forgot I had them on. You can wear them for hours . Only issue is they are a little too "open" I mostly bought them to use while working out at the gym , if you are under one of the club speakers or there is a fit class going on ( other loud speakers ) it's hard to hear your own music , even at full blast. They are great out doors and around the house . You can still have a conversation while listening.

Great headphones in every way except price!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bose Ultra Open earbuds were really nice. They were comfortable and didn't hurt my ears at all. They pinch onto your ear, very lightly--barely noticable. Immersive mode was really cool too, especially in dynamic mode where it sounds like the music if playing inside your head. 8D and binaural music lovers with love this! However, I don't think they were $300 nice. They didn't sound any better they my Galaxy Buds Live which also don't go into your ear canal. They also didn't have wireless charging like my Galaxy Buds. If I am awake, I am listening to music and they don't have a great battery life for constant listeners. In a nutshell, the Bose buds are really great headphones if you don't mind the price. I just didn't LOVE them that much.

Strike 2 Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these earbuds! They’re so sleek. Fit nicely around my ears, I think they’re pretty comfortable, great sound when not crackling. So far this is my second pair, 1st pair; crackling and popping noise when I adjusted it, I returned them for the white ones. Now the crackling is worse with my 2nd pair. It’s just terrible, sometimes it doesn’t crackle, but most of the time it’s almost every few mins for a couple of seconds. Also has like a Bluetooth glitch time to time, like it disconnects for a second and comes back on. I love these though, I can listen to music and still be aware of my surroundings. The whole reason why I wanted these but the crackling and popping noise, I’m not sure it’s entirely worth it. I am sad to be returning them once again.

Posted .I'm happy to hear you've been enjoying the design and fit of your Ultra Open Earbuds, as well as the audio quality!
If you're experiencing crackling sounds or occasional Bluetooth stability issues, try rebooting your connected mobile device, as that can help to restore a stable connection. Also, check whether these issues are occurring in all environments, or whether they seem to be specific to one environment.

Great product but...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Premium Bose sound experience. Super comfortable ear buds that I ever wear, you almost forguet that you are wearing it. They need to improved the mic during call reception, people constantly telling me... "sorry you don't hear cleary". But overall a great product, unique style, very comfortable and great sound. My only complain is on calls but looks like is more software related than harware, sorround sound canceling algorithm.
