    Usually I buy Samsung Galaxy headphones to match with my phone; however, I wanted to try something different. I have to say that these are WONDERFUL. The cuff is weird at first, but you will get use to it.

    This item works great, especially for sleeping at night. The earpiece doesn’t interfere. It’s extremely helpful if you have tinnitus.

    They may be the most comfortable earbuds I've used, but it's got the same issue 99% of bluetooth earbuds have, no LDAC. LDAC is the only compression that doesn't lose background music or soft sounds and that cuts out on these.

      Hey Maude, thank you for feedback. It's great to hear that these are the most comfortable earbuds you've used! I understand how important LDAC is for high-quality sound, especially for background music and soft sounds. No worries; I've shared your feedback internally.

    We really wanted to like them however they started messing up, they weren't loud enough and I thought they were going to be noise cancelling but are not. It could be good for someone who doesn't care about the noise cancellation and just want them for music.

      Hi DorothyB, thank you for sharing your feedback. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are not noise‑cancelling by design, as they feature an open‑ear style. They are intended for people who want to enjoy music while remaining fully aware of their surroundings. Because of the open design, the sound is not isolated within your ears. If you find the volume lower than expected, you can try adjusting it directly through the connected mobile device. We hope this helps clarify any confusion.

    This is one of the best Bluetooth earbuds I have ever had. If you wear glasses and love listening to your music or on the phone quite a lot with work stuff, I think these earbuds are your best choice. Sounds quality is great. I give it 5stars

    good sound and sound quality but they are not very loud if you are doing anything outside they are not very good at least not for me. the stay clipped on the ear well but I just can't hear them very well. May work better for someone with small ears. to me not worth the money
