    I really like the fit of the Bose Open Ear AirPods. They sit comfortably on the ear, and I often forget I’m even wearing them—they’re that lightweight and unobtrusive. The design is secure and doesn’t loosen over time, even with all-day wear. I also appreciate how seamlessly they switch between devices. If you have two phones, for example, they automatically connect to whichever one you’re using without any hassle. However, the biggest drawback is the sound quality in noisy environments. While they perform well in quiet settings, it’s hard to hear anything clearly when there’s a lot of background noise. That’s the tradeoff for having an open-ear design—but something to keep in mind if you plan to use them in louder spaces.

    I originally bought these bc I’ve been having allergic reactions to ear buds. These don’t actually go in your ear, so it was a little strange to wear them for the first time, but got use to it. My ears are very sensitive, so I unfortunately had a reaction to these as well, but I’d definitely recommend them to those with not so sensitive ears. They connect with a Bose App, which is customizable, and the sound quality is great!

    Took a little getting used to but the sound is great either in stereo or immersion. The most I’ve ever paid for earbuds.I’m hoping that they last longer than most.

    I was really surprised by these headphones. I'm a heavy music listener and over the years have had issues with earbuds irritating me. I recommend turning off the immersion feature, in my opinion, it alters the audio. Battery life is pretty good too!

      Hi Amanda, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear you liked the style and look of the earbuds, and we’re sorry to learn you’ve experienced battery and connectivity issues. For reference, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have a battery life of up to 7 hours with Immersive Audio off, 4 hours with Immersive Audio on, and 3 hours with both Immersive Audio and Auto Volume on. The case provides up to 19.5 hours of charge. Earbuds take about 1 hour to fully charge, the case about 3 hours, and a quick 10‑minute charge provides up to 2 hours of use. If one earbud drains faster than expected, here’s a helpful troubleshooting guide you can try: https://bose.life/3Q83OBW

      Regarding connectivity, Bluetooth performance can be affected by distance (typically within 30 feet), interference from nearby devices like Wi‑Fi routers or microwaves, outdated firmware, or multiple pairings. To improve stability, keep devices close, update firmware and drivers, disable battery saver mode, and restart both devices to clear temporary glitches. Here’s a guide that may help: https://bose.life/4bEGtAm

      We’ll be glad to assist you further.
