    I used to religiously buy AirPods, and they used to religiously fail me, to the point I was done with them… concept of open earbuds was new to me, and I wasn’t sure I would like them, but it turned out, I truly LOVE them! Not to mention Bose incredible sound system!!! Highly recommend them!

    I have been a long time fan of the Bose inear headphones. For many platforms ive tried many years ago i was looking for the crisp and clean sound and bose delivered however And unfortunately for me, the open ear was a downright disappointment for the Bose line in my opinion. I was told by one of the employees at Bestbuy that these headphones were rated quite good from alot of people...and well. As a diehard audio guy, these did not deliver that "bose" quality sound. At max volume the sound was crackled, there was also not much bass and it just was not my style of in ear headphones. I gave it 2 stars because the one star was for fitment, it felt good "clipped" to the ear, but i wish it had a little more to out that bud into the ear itself. And the other star was for the idea that Bose was going for. The quality of the sound for me was terrible... the BEST in ear buds ive had from Bose was the ones that were super large and stuck out alot BUT you would twist the bud itself into your outer ear and it would literally fit into place and not fall out at all. The "second generation" for the ultra quiet inear that took a good thing and turned it into something different and made it bad. For that first gen the speaker itself was a little further away from the eardrum and MADE THAT quality crisp with the bass bose has been known for. The second gen...since it was closer to the ear drum it took away some of the max volume of the music and turned it down a bit because it was closer to the ear. So with the open ear....it just washed it away. Idk how much more disappointed i can put into words on how sad i am of what Bose Did with this line.....and asking 300 bucks for it. I did it as a trade in from the utra quiet 2 earbuds for these...and 3 days of use. I returned them and got a giftcard caz i didnt even want the ultra quiet 2's either.

    The best earphones I have ever owned. Easy on the ear. You won’t even notice that you’re wearing it , Sound was excellent. I never expected it for an open earphone. The only downside I could say is that you could easily loose it without noticing it . And also the microphone has poor reception. When I use it to talk on the phone , the other side has difficulty hearing my voice. Other than that I really like the sound of this.

    Really love the sound quality and feel of the buds. They are so comfortable on my ear that I forget they are there when not listening to my music or taking a call. Only con is that they do sometimes loose connection with my apple phone. But it is not often and a quick fix.

    It is pricy, if the price was more reasonable, would have been much better, yet quality of sound, the comfort to use it (you do not have to worry about them coming off your ears) is a plus. The colors to choose from very limited.I picked black .

    These fit comfortably around your earlobe. Listeneing to these allows you to remain aware of your surrounding and converse when needed. Don't buy if you plan on making calls (microphone is terrible) or need noise cancellation (can't hear anything on MAX volume when doing anything that involves loud noises).

    Love this design. No more ear buds falling out of my ear and pressing buttons trying to get them back in place. Great sound in volume and clarity. Having some hearing loss these are still clear even on low volume. Not the best for airplane rides but still effective to enjoy movies or books. Worked great jamming to music while using a chainsaw.
