Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good quality. Comfortable. Clear sounds. Battery lasts all day.

Super comfortable. They stay on during exercise. Sounds great. I got these as a gift for my wife for her bday and she really loves them!

I have larger earlobes, so they sit back further from my ear canal. I think for more normal sized ears this product would be even better. I could squish my earlobes for better audio quality and noise isolation, but the fit would no longer be secure. I personally find the spatial features to be gimmicky and turn them off for better battery life. Have had little bluetooth issues like some other wireless buds out there.

Good sound quality and impressive noise cancelling feature even though buds aren't fully in the ear. Pro - no in ear fatigue. The battery life is okay, could be better, but the buds do charge fast in the case.

They sound good and dont hurt your ears. Wish the bass was better and they got loader

The Bose Ultra Open-Ear Earbuds are excellent when it comes to music listening. The open-ear design delivers clear, immersive sound while still allowing awareness of your surroundings. For enjoying music during walks or at work, they perform exceptionally well. However, call quality is not the strongest. People on the other side of the call often struggle to hear my voice clearly—possibly a mic issue, though I’m not entirely sure. If calls are a priority, these may not be the best option. One more thing I noticed: the sound quality becomes even better when I bend my ears slightly forward, which obviously isn’t practical to hold all the time :-) . This might be due to my ear shape not perfectly matching the intended design :-) , so the fit could vary from person to person. Overall, despite a few quirks, these are among the best open-ear earbuds in this price range, especially if your main use is music and comfort rather than calls.

These headphones are amazingly comfortable and the battery lasts the entire work day, but that is where the compliments end. These headphones are HORRIBLE. When both headphones are in, the music is constantly un-synced. When you answer a phone call with them in, it cuts out the first 5 seconds of the call and the person on the other line won't be able to hear you. They will completely disconnect in the middle of a phone call. About once a day I have to reset them because they just stop connecting to my phone. Best Buy has amazing customer service and has replaced these headphones twice, but the problem has persisted in each pair I have received. I want to love these headphones because they're SO comfortable, but for $300, the amount of problems that come with them is not worth it.

It's a perfect alternative to earphones if you are not comfortable to continuously have earphones plugged into your ear. Can use it for extended duration without any discomfort. Sound quality is also good.

Very stylish and work well overall. The sound is good and they look great. However, during phone calls, people sometimes have trouble hearing me. Also, they don’t work with Siri, which is a bit disappointing.

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!

For open ear headphones, I love these. They are super light, I usually forget I have them on. The sound quality is great once you tweak the EQ with the Bose App. Out of the box they are lacking in bass. I love that I can hear everything around me and my music effortlessly and people around me cannot hear anything unless they are 75% volume or higher which they never need to be. These are better than bone conduction headphones like AfterShokz because those usually pressing into my head gave me a headache after too long. The Case is still small enough to fit in the "watch" pocket of your jeans. I love them. These will be useless on a plane. I was going to do 4 stars because they can't be used on a plane, but that's not why I bought them. I bought them because my airpod Pro's were starting to get uncomfortable being in my ears all the time. These are amazing and I love using them every day, literally on here back at BBY.com to buy my wife a pair.

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.

Wonderful sound. Very comfortable. Stays in place while moving amc bending over.

These are by far the most comfortable and best sounding earbuds I’ve ever owned. They don’t move, fall out or irritate my ears. They stay in place and sound Great!!!

These are my second set of Bose headphones. I do a lot of business on my phone and wanted to be able to hear my surroundings since their other in ears have such good noise cancelling. These are light and comfy. Great sound quality and really good battery life. It does take a bit of practice for fitment

Comfort: A+ Music: A # Great for an open earbud Battery: A Look: A Call D: # Had a Pixel same issue. Got iPhone same issue. People can’t hear what I say clearly. Microphones are hidden. I tried voice recording it’s feels like 1950s radio. That’s the Main and only down side.

These are the best earbuds I've ever had. They're comfortable, clear, and they don't come off. Buy them, you won't be disappointed.

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.

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.

Exactly what I wanted - comfortable, they don't fall off, great sound and I can maintain awareness of my environment.
