Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had these for about 2 weeks now and I think the sound on them are really good for what they are. Open ear headphones. I ride the metro so these are perfect for staying aware of my surroundings. The volume levels are great but I have noticed that sometimes a drop in volume at times. I could be listening to something and it sounds crystal clear at about 70% volume, but sometimes (in the same environment) I would be at 150% volume and can barely hear anything. I've had to close out all apps and restart my phone and the sound would go back to normal. I've had one connectivity issue so far where my phone would not connect again to these earbuds for approximately 20 minutes. I restarted my phone, disconnected the headphones from my device, placed the headphone back into the case and nothing. It wasn't until about 20 minutes in the case and it began working again. And yes they were at 100 % battery. I had just finished charging them and was headed to grab lunch but they wouldn't connect. I want to give these a higher review but right now I see a few problems happening in just a little over 2 weeks and I hope they don't continue. If the problems don't persist in the next few months I will gladly bump up the rating on the review.

Nice buds, comfortable nice sound and easily taken in and out. These ear buds stay in place and you don’t have to worry bout sizing the tips to keep them in. So far so good. The final test is how long do they last.

Got this as a gift for our Mom and she was always stuck on here older wired headphones and worried that in ear plugs would fall out and she would lose them easily...not with these and she loves the comfort and sound!

I have had these earbuds for a little less than a month and I really like them. This is my first Bose product and the sound doesn’t disappoint. I would say if you have sensitive ears than you may not like the way it wraps on your ears. They’re also very secure on your ear so they’re good for working out in.

Although this product has an innovative design and great sound quality, that's where it ends. The fit is perfect, and the open earbuds really allow you to be aware of your surroundings. They're great for hiking, running, and other activities. However, the mic quality is absolutely horrendous, even after updating the product. No matter the conditions in which the call is taken, the other person won't be able to hear you clearly (it sounds like you're in a bathroom or below deck in a boat). I thought I received a defective product, so I exchanged it. Nope. The mic is still horrible. Yes, I've tried Shokz and other competitors, but the sound quality in these is unmatched for an open-earbud design. If you don't care about taking calls while you have these in, it's a great product. The price target should be more in the $150 range due to the mics and cheap plastic case. If you want wireless charging, you'll have to spend another $50 for the compatible case. If Bose could stop releasing several different colors and focus on the mics, this would be an amazing set of open earbuds.

I bought these right after Thanksgiving, set them up and wore them once. I was impressed with the sound quality, how light and comfortable they were, and being able to switch from my phone to my laptop as a source. Literally the very next morning, after I let them charge the left earbud didn't work, I followed all of Bose instructions with a re-sync and then a factory reset. The left bud seemingly was lost, it wouldn't recognize or sync at all. So I played around with it, I put it on the right ear spot and it showed to be charging, I figured out the contacts for the left earbud were not making contacts. I thought I had it remedied, however the next day at the gym not only did the left not sync initially but it had near zero charge. So 3 stars is a tad generous, however, when they work they are fantastic, even in loud environments (unlike some have said), and i really like them in the gym. These things don't fall out!

Love these! The fit is great and the sound is great too. Super comfortable and they stay in great during workouts! Highly recommend

Great sound, long lasting battery. I love that you can have them on your ear and still hear things around you. Conformable to wear as well.

[Employee of bestbuy] For open headpuones, the sound quality is very good. The headphones are comfortable to wear as well. Battery life seems great so far as well. Why not 5 stars? These headphones have some big drawbacks too. When i answer phone calls, nearly everyone has said rhe microphone isn't very good. Also, the controls other than pause and restart playing don't seem to work. I'm unable to change volume for example. I have to do many of the controls though my phone.

I've always had issues with earbuds hurting my ears, especially after more than a half hour or hour of use. I have another pair of Bose earbuds, and I also have some Samsung Galaxy Buds. But those have quickly become replaced with these. These are comfortable enough for several hours of use. I love these so much I ended up buying a 2nd pair to keep at work, which is where they really get the most use. At work, I have them paired with both my phone and my work laptop. These effortlessly flip between both devices. I can Spotify on the laptop and then answer a call coming in on my phone all effortlessly and without touching any settings. I also love that of someone comes in my office, I can easily still hear them without having to remove the earbuds first (I should clarify, I only use one side when at work, not both together). They also have fantastic range. I walked pretty far away from my work laptop to a completely different section of the office (past locked doors) before they dropped connection. Even though these aren't in the ear, they still do a good job of drowning out environmental noise. I've used these at my daughter's gymnastics gym and felt like I was in my own little world.

Definitely an upgrade to other competitors. It is an investment considering the price, but the sound quality and battery life is just different. These last way longer than 3 hours. I will say that these are anatomy dependent to the ear and can cause irritation if you're doing long runs (like me) or longer workouts. If sound quality is what you are looking for than this is it for you!

Sound quality is very good. Great battery life. Very comfortable.

Theyre comfortable, i forget theyre in sometimes, they sound great and i can hear everything around me still, louder sounds like construction will drowned out the headphones though

Sound quality is great—just what you’d expect from Bose. They pair easily with both my computer and phone. Super comfortable too; I can wear them all day and barely notice them. Battery lasts a long time. The only minor issue is that some people say it’s a bit hard to hear me clearly during calls.

The fit is amazing, very light weight I give it 5 stars. The overall rating I give 2 stars 1 because the incoming call volume is horrible. I literally can hear any and everything they’re not the least bit noise canceling. Now can I wear them at work and most think they’re a thick pair of earrings yes but not worth my 320.00 I gave them to my husband. Beautiful design but would not recommend to an enemy. The volume is low compared to apple air pods. I spent more time saying what did you say. May be okay for working out listening to low volume but for anything else.

I got them for my wife as a christmas present. She has over the ear noise canceling headphones, but they work to well. As a result I frequently scared her because she would wear them while working from home. The sound quality is great in these and now she can hear around the house while listening to her music, podcasts and audio books. The battery life is great, the colors are nice and they are comfortable if you have smaller ears. Since getting shes only taken them out to sleep and recharge them.

Understand what you are buying and you will love them. These are not audiophile grade headphones. If you are looking for noise cancellation heavy bass and high volumes these are not for you. These serve a purpose. For what they are the sound quality is quite good. I bought these for biking and for the office. They excel at the office. I use them for calls, as a headset for listening to music etc. I can have these on playing music and still hear people approach my office and speak to them and hear them no problem. They are discreet and not extremely noticable. They are light weight and very comfortable. I wear them for hours at a time. I walk around with these not playing anything and forget they are on which is nice. Just buy them for what they are for.

Bose headphones are amazing! Great sound, strong bass, and awesome noise cancellation. Super comfortable and the battery lasts a long time. Totally worth it

I recently purchased the Bose Ultra Open-Ear True Wireless Earbuds in black, and they exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is outstanding, with crisp highs and deep bass that provide an immersive listening experience without isolating you from your surroundings. The open-ear design ensures comfort even during long periods of use, making them perfect for outdoor activities or extended wear. The battery life is impressive, lasting up to 8 hours on a single charge, with additional charges from the portable case. Connectivity is stable, and the intuitive touch controls are easy to use. These earbuds are a fantastic choice for anyone seeking top-notch sound quality and comfort.

They are comfortable, stays in place without falling off and the sound is awesome, and I love the bass. I am very happy with my Bose!!
