      Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear that you’re enjoying the sound quality of your Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, and we understand how stressful it can be when they disconnect or stop playing audio even though your phone shows they’re still connected.

      The Ultra Open Earbuds are designed to deliver clear, immersive sound with an open‑ear fit and reliable Bluetooth connectivity. In some cases, audio dropouts like the one you described can be related to pairing behavior, software, or device settings.

    Over all really good headphones especially for listening to music I just have to get use to the functions… fits really comfortably in the ears. Only con is when talking on the phone in public it can be hard to hear.

    Good. Limited controls (pretty much just a pause/play button). Limited app integration. Good for listening while you still want to be aware of your environment. This is an excellent product for that nice, but the product is somewhat niche.

    These buds won’t work for everybody. So with that being said I absolutely love them because I hate to keep pushing buds into my ear canal. And I work in a warehouse so I need to hear everything around me. The sound quality is excellent as with any Bose. I don’t talk to anyone so I don’t care about a microphone but everyone hears me clearly when I do talk. I got these for comfort. So if you love regular earbuds these probably won’t be for you.

    The best earphones I have ever owned. Easy on the ear. You won’t even notice that you’re wearing it , Sound was excellent. I never expected it for an open earphone. The only downside I could say is that you could easily loose it without noticing it . And also the microphone has poor reception. When I use it to talk on the phone , the other side has difficulty hearing my voice. Other than that I really like the sound of this.

    I love how these clip on so they aren’t in the way of earrings or glasses. The sound is very good for an open ear bud. Sadly though, I am unable to use these for work calls - the person couldn’t hear me so I had to go back to my other ear buds. I still like these for listening to music or to use with my IPad, and the immersive audio feature is fun!

    Well, I am typically impressed with the sound and build quality of bose but the left side has stopped working with minimal use. Purchased these for my wife who just started using them a few months ago and now the left side is not charging. I have inspected and cleaned the terminals but no luck, maybe a bad battery? Currently looking for the box in order to return them.

    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.

    Good but Huawei do it better

    These fatigued my ears a bit more than the Huawei Free Clips. The Bose cost more, even after importing the Huawei clips into the U.S., but the Bose don't sound much better. Huawei free clips have better volume and are much better on calls. The Bose have the upside off an app that works by default in the USA. For the Huawei clips there was a lot of roundabout work that was needed to get their app to work inside the US. But they are hands dowb the better design for comfort and sound.

    Love the concept of being able to listen to music but also hear your environment. The battery life is great but lessens when using immersive audio. I tried the immersive audio but didn't really impress me. The sound is decent but will wash out if your environment is loud.

    Love these earbuds, they don’t connect as easily as the Apple product but I do love that they don’t go into my ear but clip on. I forget I’m wearing them. The sound is great.

    Gotta say, I didn’t buy these for the longest time due to the price. It was worth everything I paid. Finally wanted a set that I culd hear my surroundings if walking, running, etc. Sound is very good. Haven’t tried calls yet, so cannot comment on phone call connection or noise level. Would I buy again, yes, but I would have to save my pennies up first…lol!

    Sounds great, sound control is great and it fits great. The only minor drawback is that sometime the phone doesn't automatically reconnects it when you need to.
