  • Wearing and adjusting Bose Ultra Open Earbuds Hold the barrel-shaped part of the earbuds so the button is on top and the R (right) or L (left) marking is facing you. Adjust each earbud so that it sits on your ear at about a 45° angle. Place the rounded end of the L-shaped part in your ear, then wrap the barrel around your ear so the barrel rests behind your ear. The barrel of the earbud should not be in front of your ear and the button must not face downward. Also, the earbud should not be facing downwards or upwards as shown in the last two examples above.

    It’s a great product. It’s hardly noticeable around the ear, but I do find myself having to adjust it for the best volume range. For the best experience download the Bose app

    I’m sorry. But Bose made a big mistake. I tried the set and found sound is moving between left and right devices without any reason. I can’t say this is a premium earbuds. Sorry BOSE

    Horrible sound quality when taking calls. Okay sound quality with music. Had to turn it up to full volume. Can’t use it with one by itself like AirPods.

      Hi Schawayna, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoy the sound quality for music, and we’re sorry about the issues you’ve experienced with call quality and single-earbud use with your Ultra Open Earbud. Just to clarify, you can use one earbud at a time, because each earbud is designed to work independently, so you can listen to audio or take calls with just one if you prefer.

      For help improving call quality, please check out this quick guide: https://bose.life/4oSXU4r. We appreciate your input, it helps us improve and serve you better.
