    I love it than the *traditional* earphones. It does its job, easy to use, it doesn’t come off easily when I don’t intend to take it off which is good.. overall, it’s a 9/10 for me.

    Good headphones for those who don't want complete noise isolation (people who walk outdoors around cars, buses, etc). Good sound quality, fit works after a little fiddling, and call quality seems solid.

    Great alternative to the AirPods. They last a long time on a single charge. Some quality is good. Microphone is terrible.

    Possibly comfortable but way too buggy.

    It takes a lot of effort to make the Open Ultra comfortable, but once you get it there it does sound really nice and it can stay there for comfortably for hours. However it is the buggies bose product I've ever used. Often only one earbud worked, requiring me to reset it by putting it in/out of the case. Sometimes even this wouldn't work and I'd have to unpair and re-pair it. This was inconsistent but it did happen way more than it should. More consistently, when starting a video it would take a solid 2 seconds before audio kicked in. If I paused the video, I'd have to go through the same thing. Imagine leaving a tiktok comment, moving on to the next video, only to miss the first 2 seconds of it. Really annoying. I ended up returning it. Not the quality I expect from this brand. I'd probably have stuck with it if it wasn't such a buggy product.

    • Brand response from Bose Support
      Posted .

      I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the Bose sound from your Ultra Open Earbuds, and that you found a comfortable fit after a while. However, I'm sorry to hear that one earbud wasn't working 100% of the time. Resyncing the earbuds with the case can resolve this, or you can reboot your connected mobile device as this can improve the connection's stability as well.

      As for a video's audio not playing immediately, a slight audio/video delay via Bluetooth is normal. However, using a different video app can produce different results, as can resetting your earbuds, see here: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000000hRrFAAU&language=en_US.

    The audio is outstanding, but what else would you expect from Bose, one of the premier sound company. Love the open ear design: it allows me to be aware of what going on around me while listening to my tunes or a podcast

    Good sound. Very comfortable. Open ear allows to hear surroundings. Probably about $100 overpriced though. $199 would be fair.

    Amazing when listening to music, also great when listening to audiobooks or anything like that!!!! But as far as making a phone call there is some work to be done! While talking on the phone I found myself repeating myself as well as asking the person on the other line to repeat themselves. The design, the case, charge life all get two thumbs up. Only other thing is the ability to charge wireless will cost you additional and it only available thru the Bose website. Would not recommend if you’re looking for a wireless headphone to talk on the phone on.

    These open buds are exactly what i was looking for. Sound is great (no ANC by design), fit is great, battery life is more than enough. I use them at work which they're fantastic for. I can listen to music and still here everything going on around me. Pay a bit for the name but I'm ok with that

    Overall, really loved them, comfy with excellent sound quality. But I had to return them because nobody could hear me on the phone; my family said it sounded like I was cutting in and out, which is really inconvenient for a set of headphones.
