Fantastic product.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is absolute genius. The audio quality is amazing, and it stays on - no matter how hard you work out. It is also quite stylish, so you can wear it dressed up or down, and it is slick enough to look stunning. Sure - there is no noise cancelling, but you will not be getting this item if you wanted noise cancelling. This is Bose done right!
I would recommend this to a friend Pretty but not quality for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are cute but lose signal if you get 20feet from your phone. Don’t fit in the ear great for the price. Charge is not as long as it should be. Overall disappointing.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you find the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds stylish, but we understand your concerns about the Bluetooth range, fit, and battery life. Bluetooth connections typically work best within about 30 feet, though obstacles or interference can sometimes reduce that distance. The open‑ear design was created to fit standard ear sizes while providing comfort and awareness of your surroundings.
For battery performance, the earbuds offer 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. With a fully charged case, you can get up to 19.5 hours of total playtime.
If your Bluetooth connection is intermittent or drops unexpectedly, try the following steps: https://bose.life/3O6j3dA

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are really good to listen to music but not good at all for taking calls. If you just need buds for music, I would say get them but if you are trying to take calls with them do not get these model,.

Love them!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love these earphones. They are open ear, so it’s not a fair comparison to compare to closed earphones. I enjoy hearing my music and audiobooks while still hearing what’s going on around me. Sometimes people can’t hear me talk on the phone, but when I simply adjust the earpiece, they hear me. Best thing about them is they are absolutely 100% comfortable to wear all day. I can even sleep in them!

Limited use
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love how they fit and sounds great listening to my music. However, using to talk on the phone not so great. I need them to handle multiple uses especially with as much as they cost.

Posted .Hey there! We're delighted to hear that you love the comfortable fit and the great audio performance of the Ultra Open Earbuds! The buds are designed to be great when taking calls. Please be sure to check our support article at https://bose.life/3OOr7gJ for some tips on how to maximize your enjoyment. In particular, please be sure to check on the fit of your buds; they should sit on your ear at about a 45° angle with unrestricted microphone access.
Thank you,

Failure to Charge
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased 31 Dec 2024 (unable to return it 60 days later). Charging issues within 30 days. The left earbud will not charge despite multiple troubleshooting recommendations from Best Buy, Bose, and the online forum. The electric prongs that charge the earbuds are small and frail and often get stuck in the down positions, resulting in no charging or mechanical issues that cannot be fixed. Opinion/Recommendation: DO NOT BUY. The original purchase price was 323, but now it's 229. This means inventory is too high, and realtors are adjusting due to poor performance sales and word-of-mouth opinions that aren't captured elsewhere. I bought Bose because I am a long-time customer. ( 2 x Bose mini sound link, sound bar, and earbuds). I'm moving on to Beats 2 based on online reviews. I didn't expect this issue within 30 days of owning the product, as this issue should have been resolved in testing/design.

Good sound, a little uncomfortable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is really good, but the experience is different. It sounds like you are just listening to speakers, but no one else can hear them! I will say that these aren't the most comfortable to wear as they do pinch my ears a bit.
