A Bluetooth Field of Dreams

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent headphones. Purchased one for me; lent them to my GF (she suffers from ear fatigue) to watch her shoes during her lunch breaks. She like them so much I purchased he a pair. Went and purchased two more because I keep losing one bud. Over best earbud out. Small improvements could make these earbuds a “Field of Dreams” for anyone with Bluetooth.

Hope second time is a charm.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had the product for almost 3 months ,was working fine until one day the right headphone just stopped working.Couldn't get it to work after calling in for help. Now waiting on a replacement pair. Hope to have better luck this time. When working the product was really nice sound.

Love the product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought the ultra open earbuds a couple months back and love them. I did have one instance where only one of the earbuds was connecting properly but got resolved with me going through and pairing with my phone again. The quality of sound is great and for someone that struggled having traditional earbuds in there ears due to them starting to hurt after a short time. This product solved all of my issues with earbuds and provided me a quality experience.

Ridiculously Comfortable!

These are so ridiculously comfortable! I have an ear bud rejection problem- I've struggled with both in ear and over ear all not fitting right or falling out. These completely solve this issue! The fit is 💯! The sound is pretty phenomenal and it essentially sounds like the music is in the room versus in your ear. Perfect for rural living in the Colorado mountains and hiking/biking in bear and mountain lion country! Only small issue I have so far- the EQ when using guided cycling workouts (using my Nordictrack +iFit) that has a trainer speaking with background music, it gets a little quiet and unbalanced. I have to crank the mids and volume up. Not a huge deal to have my ears open, otherwise I just use my Quiet Comfort Ultras : )

My new favorite headphones for the gym!

I have been looking for the perfect headphones for the gym for a long time and my search may finally be over! I do a few hours of intense exercise (CrossFit, running) just about everyday and until now I haven’t found the right headphones yet. Other products fall out easily, have terrible sound or are just too uncomfortable to wear for extended periods. First the fit, it takes a few minutes to get them into the right place on my ear. Part of that problem is that my off hand is clumsy. However once I had them in place they stayed there. I ran with them, lifted weights and did movements such and burpees and they didn’t fall out even once! Very impressive. The sound was awesome. Plenty of bass but I’d say the sound is pretty well balanced. With the open ear design I worried I would be hearing my music AND the gyms music but that turnout to not be an issue unless I was right under the gyms speakers. One of my favorite features of these headphones were the buttons. They feel solid and work well. I have some headphones that are controlled by tapping the sides and it’s super annoying to be lifting overhead and accidentally stopping your music or changing the volume. Physical buttons for the win! I was able to wear the ear buds for hours with no problems with comfort. Some miscellaneous thoughts. I was able to run about 100 meters from my phone and still maintain connection with my earbuds! Awesome! Call quality was very clear! And lastly this might be TMI but I have an ear that produces lots of earwax! It has wrecked in ear buds in the past. That is not an issue with the Ultra Ear buds because they don’t go into the ear canal that deep. So if you have ear wax issues these are perfect! My biggest con is the charging case lid, the hinge seems a little fragile. Maybe the silicone case will help with that? I’ll find out once it arrives. I am beyond happy with these earbuds and it’s nice to have finally found a product that fits all my needs while exercising !

Very sorely disappointed

I bought this a month ago and am entirely unhappy with the sound quality, specifically with phone calls. The sound quality is good for music etc, but with phone calls it’s basically unusable..bad and distant sound and an intolerable echo. I spent a lot of time with Bose support without resolution..they offered a replacement set and were very clear, if the replacement set was unsatisfactory it would be unreplaceable and non refundable…all the wrong answers.

Enjoy the fidelity.

Deep rich sounds. After wearing for long periods it gets slightly tender around the ears surfaces . Currently in 90 testing phase. I use these open ear units while playing my trumpet. The sound is enhanced more if i move my earlobes forward as i positions the sound closer to my ear canals making the music easier to hear while following along with my horn. if the Bose speakers were designed with the speakers in more align towards my ear canals for me it would be ideal. I am trying to figure a way to move my earlobes 1/2 inch forward by securing something to a hat i could wear while playing.

Good sound but too sensitive in touch & auto-pause

The sound quality and battery life are wonderful! However, the earbuds are very sensitive. There is an out-of-ear auto-pause feature that cannot be turned off. Unfortunately, when I bend down or tilt my head, the earbuds sense this as out-of-ear and automatically pause. Additionally, the touch controls are quite sensitive. Even the touch of my hair often causes the earbuds to pause.

Really bad instructions

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These did not work well for me. The volume was minimal. The instruction booklet was tiny font and was impossible to read. I watched many videos trying to figure out how to make this work well with the soundbar I purchased with the earbuds. They still did not perform well.

Another winner!

The sound is amazing on these earbuds (a quality that only Bose can deliver). They are easy to put on and are quite comfortable to wear. The only downside is that they don’t have dual connectivity. However, you can program your earbuds to toggle between devices using the buttons on your earbuds. The app is easy to use and is very informative. All in all, an excellent product.
