    Great headphones, only thing is I feel it’s too expensive for $300. If it’s going to $300 it has to have what the other competition has such as wireless charging, multipoint etc.

    The right one drains a lot faster than the left one making it hard to use them together. It also randomly stops connecting to my phone.

      Thanks so much for your feedback! We're sorry to hear you're experiencing faster battery drain on the right earbud and connection issues, that’s definitely not the experience we want for you.

      This can sometimes happen due to the right earbud acting as the primary connection point, which may cause it to use more power. To help resolve this, we recommend checking for firmware updates, resetting the earbuds, and ensuring both are fully charged before use. You can also try reconnecting them to your device by removing and re-pairing them via Bluetooth.

      Here’s a troubleshooting guide that may help: http://bose.life/4oSodb7

    You can still carry on a conversation with someone near you while still listening to music. The quality is amazing. However, if you’re looking for an immersive sound, these are not the headphones you want. Realistically, it sounds like a speaker surrounding you while you can still hear everything else. if that is what you want, you would definitely enjoy them. Ultimately I returned these as i couldnt justify the cost over buying a portable speaker.

      I'm sorry to hear you weren't happy with your Ultra Open Earbuds, though you did like their sound and open-ear design! For immersive audio, I'd recommend one of our other in-ear solutions, namely the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds. These buds sit directly in the ear canal, and the Immersive Audio settings will make your music feel like it's coming from outside the earbuds! Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

    These are my favorite ear buds so far. I can't use normal in-ear earbuds because they hurt the inside of my ears after a while. The open earbuds I can keep on for hours, for example on a long haul flight. Plus, I like to be aware of my surroundings on a run by myself.

    These are the beest buds i have ever had. Other pods need to be adjusted or you need to pull them out to rub your eat. These stay on while i am walking, running or playing tennis. Best bud to come out!!!!

    Good headphones, phone quality subpar, allergic

    A number of people are looking for alternatives to airpod pro earbuds, and I'm one of them. I have some sort of allergy to the new airpods and the new bose quietcomfort (and ultra) buds and overears, so I tried these after returning the ultra overears because of that allergy. So, first warning, if those allergies affect you, the strap in between the battery and speaker appears made of the same material and while I didnt have an issue immediately, it has come up again more slowly and just where that part touches the skin. Unfortunately I was letting my ears heal a bit from the ultra overears before using these a lot and I'm stuck with them because my return period is over, so if anyone at Bose is reading this and can help, I'd sure appreciate it. To the actual product: I think that overall, these are what I expected as far as music sound goes. Connected to my iOS devices, phone quality is poor. I've been told numerous times I sound awful and have had to remove them to use speaker or another device, unfortunately my use is about 50/50 phone calls and music. I own the glasses and these are definitely a step up in the right direction. I like these better than the openfit and openrun from competitors, but I just cant use them due to whatever all these manufacturers are putting on the silicon/rubber/whatever. Really, if you can fix the phone call quality these are closer to 4.5 stars, if you can make me non-allergic, then I'd give just about anything.

      Thanks for your review of the Ultra Open Earbuds! While I'm happy to hear that you've been enjoying the Bose sound, I am sorry to hear about what appears to be an allergic reaction to part of the product - as well as the phone call issues you've outlined. My suggestion would be to contact Bose's technical support team, so that both issues can be looked at more closely with regards to finding a solution for you.
