Posted .Hello,
I am sorry to hear that you are not happy with your Ultra Open Earbuds.
Please note that they don't have noise cancellation due to their form factor, being open earbuds. You will then be able to hear your surroundings, as well as your music.
Best regards,

Posted .Hi Jovana, I'm sorry to hear you returned your Ultra Open Earbuds as you weren't fully keen on the open-ear design. This design enables the listener to hear their favorite content whilst maintaining awareness of the world around them. If you'd prefer a product that allows you to block out as much or as little of the outside world as you like, I'd recommend our in-ear noise-cancelling solutions. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support

Good yet the price point doesn’t align with sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good yet the price point is way too high for the Level of quality. The sound during a phone call is absolutely horrendous. The fitment I’ve grown accustomed to but still is less than functional during vigorous exercise. Battery life and change time is great.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .I'm glad you're enjoying the battery life of your Ultra Open Earbuds, and that you've grown accustomed to their fit most of the time. Though these earbuds won't provide quite the same experience as earbuds that sit directly in the ear canal, we'd like to assist and advise on the points you've raised.

The worst headphones fro gym
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The lack of noise canceling makes these completely useless in my opinion Unless you want to listen to them in your bedroom
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .Hello,
By design, the Open Earbuds don’t block out the world or have noise cancelling, however, they do have an automatic volume control feature, accessible in the Bose app, that helps you hear your music evenly as your environment changes from quiet to loud and back. But in very noisy environments where noise cancelling is helpful, traditional earbuds such as the QuietComfort Earbuds could be a better choice.
Best regards,
Lau - Bose Customer Support

Posted .Hi there! Thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback, we’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying the earbuds while listening to music. The Open Earbuds are designed to keep you connected to your surroundings, so they don’t include noise cancellation or block out external sounds. This allows you to enjoy your music while staying aware of what’s happening around you.
That said, they do feature automatic volume control, which you can enable through the Bose app. This smart feature adjusts your music volume based on changes in your environment, helping you maintain a consistent listening experience whether things get quiet or loud. Hope this helps! Kurt - Bose Customer Support
Bad Bluetooth connection.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price it should be not a struggle to switch between Bluetooth devices. I’m beyond frustrated and I e had these less than 3 days. I want to say it’s my weeks but these ear buds do not switch from my work computer to iPhone seamlessly. You have to go through an app and even then it doesn’t recognize my computer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .Thanks for your review! The Ultra Open Earbuds don't support multi-point, but you can switch between two previously connected devices by setting a "Switch Devices" shortcut in the Bose app. If any Bluetooth recognition issues persist, please contact our support team for help: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

Not for me
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am a long time Bose fan, and thought these Open Ear earbuds would be great for walking/exercise. While they were very light weight and comfortable. I could never find a position that provided even "decent" sound quality or volume. I returned them.

Posted .Hi William, happy to hear you're a long-time fan of our products! Although you enjoyed the comfort and feather-light grip of your Ultra Open Earbuds, I'm sorry to hear you weren't able to find the sound and volume you were looking for. While an open-ear design may not be as loud as a closed-ear design, you can try resetting your earbuds, as shown here: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000001fddgAAA&language=en_US.

An Interesting Piece of Garbage
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just like any TWS earbuds Bose been made in recent years, it's an interesting piece of industrial garbage. It's perfect set of sports earbuds with a perfect usage scenario when you sitting indoor under a quite atmosphere. Ah, no need to mention the small issues like no ANC, volume extremely low and not for people with big ears, those are harmless small problems that not worth mention.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Bose Support
Posted .Hey there, thanks for sharing your feedback. By design, Ultra Open earbuds do not block out the world or have noise cancellation. However, they do feature an automatic volume control feature which will help you hear music evenly as your environment changes around you. In addition, proprietary Bose OpenAudio technology allows the earbuds to play rich, immersive audio privately. The buds are designed to fit all; the light-as-air flex arm provides enough grip to keep the buds secure on any size ear. They're even designed to attach to a part of the ear that does not interfere with most glasses, hats, and piercings!
