Customer Ratings & Reviews

On my second pair now because the prongs for charging get stuck and don't make a connection to the earbud for charging. The new pair does the same thing. Constant connection issues where only one bud connects to my phone, and the other doesn't. Also has overspray of the rubber coating on one of the connection tabs. Get caught playing the game of casing and uncasing until it finally works. A battery on full charge doesn't last more than 3 hours of play time. I was looking for a good set of open earbuds for long runs. These aint it!

More than what I expected for an open ear bud. I can feel the bass kick in while hearing what's happening around me. Great technology. Bose never dissappoints

I recently got the new Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. I was intrigued by a new design type in an earbud, at least as far as I am aware of. Plus, Bose is a leader in great sounding audio products. The Ultra Open Earbuds come in a small box that contains the earbuds, a charging case, and a short USB-A to USB-C charging cord. On the back of the packaging, you’ll see the logos for made for iPhone & iPad, as well as the logo for works with android. Besides these mobile platforms, you can pretty much pair them with anything that has a Bluetooth option. Upon opening the package, the first thing you are directed to is the Bose music app to complete an initial set up and a likely software update. The app walks you thru the set up with clear instructions, basically all that’s needed is to put the charging case and earbuds into pairing mode and the app will find them, then do the rest. One thing that the initial set up will highlight is Bose’s immersive audio feature. The app will guide you thru a little demo, letting you experience the difference between the stereo audio format and two types of immersive audio, both of which sound better in plain English. Per the app, the immersive modes enhance and depth to whatever you are listening to. If you’re like me, you’ll set it to on and leave it alone from there. After pairing with the app is complete, you’ll be able to set/change how your earbuds sound thru the equalizer to add/reduce bass, mid range, & treble and set how you want them to react to the noise level of your environment thru the auto volume option. You’ll also be able to change some functionality of the button on each earbud thru the shortcuts options, and get tips on how to get the most out of the earbuds. Of course you can use them to do everything that any other ear bud can do, such as listen to music or any other media on your device, answer/end or decline phone calls, etc. The most standout thing about these earbuds is the design and the way you wear them. They behave like a clip on, wrapping around and behind your ear, without applying any pressure at all. They are a delight to wear and are super comfortable. If you don’t like the feeling of an earbud in your ear, these will work perfect for you. They also don’t feel like they could ever fall out even though you can barely even feel that you have them on. Also, because they have an open design, you can stay aware of other sounds going on around you. When you first take the earbuds out of the charging case, they will automatically connect to the last device they were connected to as long as it’s within range. The product specs on Bose’s website rate the battery life at up to 7.5 hours, but I’ve really only gotten 4.5 hours before needing to recharge while using them during work for a mix of listening to music and taking phone/zoom calls. Music sounds great, especially in immersive audio, and the work perfectly well during phone calls also. While they perform great at their core function of listening to various media, so do lots of other earbuds. Due to the design, there obviously is no noise cancelling functionality, although the auto volume feature will ensure you can hear whatever media you are listening to since it will automatically change the volume based on the sound happening around you. As I said earlier, you can pair these with any/all your Bluetooth devices, but they will not switch automatically between your iPhone and iPad (for example). You can switch them in the app or but creating a shortcut and using the button on each earbud. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are a great product with its one killer feature being the open design and the comfort of wearing them without really feeling that you are wearing an earbud. The design eliminates some functionality found in other earbuds at similar price points. These are pretty pricey at $299. They sound great and have a great design but you are paying for Bose. The decision whether these are worth the price could come down to the usual devices you use and tradeoffs on functionality.

Love it I used it almost everyday and every night biking running workout in the gym cooking food. Please give me the $400 gift card.

Excellent , the best quality. Fully recommended .Bose #1

Husband loves these. Grey for working out and has amazing abilities.

I am glad I purchased this headset. I love it! I can wear it for long hours without pain.

Love them, they feel very comfortable. They are so comfortables that sometimes you dont feel them in your ears

Best sound, best Earbuds. 100% recomend it ........

easy to wear and used daily, I use them more then any other earbuds that I own. No more ear pain!

If you want to lock in to what you’re listening to while being aware of your surroundings, these are for you. Obviously you can get better headphones for the price, but these are designed specifically for the open ear concept.

Love them !!!! Excellent choice,overall an A++++++,such a difference

The are excellent. Comfortable on the ears and don’t have to go down in my earlobe perfect.

This is the best earbuds I bought this year. Because it’s fit perfect in your ear.

Excellent product very high quality and reliability

I'll go. I have 15 days with them and I like them too much but the defect is in the calls that people don't listen to you and although it's a free hearing aid in the environment it can help to cancel the voice for the calls , always struggling with the same , so it would be good to have a new update for a voice cancellation I get annoyed to struggle all the time with the calls and unfortunately I have to disconnect from them and they can listen me...

They are extremely comfortable however the sound volume is not very high. I would recommend to anyone in an office or a quiet setting.

Amazing headphones, feels like theyre gonna fall out but trust they will not. Changed my life, love using them for work to hear my surroundings still.

Outside the price tag I do love the headphones. I like having them in my ear when I go for jogging and doing jump roping. I do noticed when I have them in my ear listening to something that would disconnect from my phone even when my phone is right by me. So I would have to put the headphones back in the case and try reconnect them.

Awesome performance great sound quality good music
