By far this is my favorite device to use when listening to music, especially when I am riding around town on my electric scooter or skateboard. They are perfect when riding because they do not move, like AT ALL! No matter how much I skate or push they stay in place and most of the time I forget they are there. Best of all, you can hear the traffic or people so I can stay alert at all times because if you ride a scooter or skateboard you know how dangerous the roads can be. There was a few times during my use where I literally stopped to look around, trying to figure out where the music I was hearing was coming from. I felt so dumb and amazed at the same time. I also love them more because I can use them at work with permission from management. This is a HUGE deal because earbuds are not allowed at all at our manufacturing plant for obvious safety reasons. Once I proved how clear I can hear my surrounding I was given the OK to keep using them at work. The only thing I wish I was able to do is turn the volume up or down with the earpiece. If it's an option I am unaware of it but that would make these the perfect earbuds for myself and so many others I know.

I was skeptical when I first purchased these earbuds but now I am a huge fan. They give me the best of both worlds: the sound that I expect from Bose and the ability to hear what’s going on around me. I wear them all day in the office. Very comfortable as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m loving these Bose ultra open buds! This is actually my second pair! One is black but loved the blue color so much I had to have them! Both sound great as Bose always does and easy to control via the app. Plus the charging case is easy to tuck in a bag or purse. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these as a gift for my wife who used a different brand of earbuds fthat kept falling out of her ears. She is tickled pink with them, she said it sounds like she is at a concert when she uses them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable to wear, secure in place. Great sound while still keeping outside awareness. My wife does NOT like earbuds or anything in her ear, and she now wears these almost all the time. We've had a bit of trouble with the volume control shortcuts, keep switching modes instead of adjusting volume. Not sure if it's actually tricky or I'm just not timing it right.

I purchased these because I don’t like traditional ear buds that are lodged in the ear canal. Typical Bose sound with rich base and clarity of sound. Perfect for physical activity, the stay securely in place. I am able to interact with the world around me and hold conversations in the open air mode. Full immersion a simple touch of the ear bud transitions to full immersion for a complete Bose sound experience. Easy placement and removal. Very comfortable, when I am not playing music I have forgotten that I even had them on.

I love them! Several months ago I purchased the QuietComfort Earbuds, they were the most comfortable to date but, when out and about I could only wear one earbud at a time due to the effective noise cancelling. I did not want to buy a second pair so soon, but with the 90 day trial I gave it a try. I can now take my morning walk and listen to a book or podcast and still hear the birds sing. Bonus, I love it that they sit outside the ear canal, so much more comfortable. I don't usually write reviews but am so happy with the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, that I wanted to share the good news,

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these 6 months ago for my wife because in the ear buds were not comfortable for her. She loves these and raves about them so I tried them. GAME CHANGER. Wow, the Open Ear buds are comfortable. The sound great. You can hear what is going on around you when you need to be aware of your surroundings. Love these, they are amazing. .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only been using these for a couple of weeks but I’m a fan. I was honestly skeptical about how they would stay on and the way they would feel during a run. I’m the type of person who can’t do AirPods and like my headphones to feel secure. These stay in place really well. I enjoyed not having buds in my ears for my longer runs and these give me the ability to hear what is going on around me. If they are turned up loud enough you can drown out the outside sound as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently bought the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds and am impressed by their style and comfort—they're a perfect fit. However, I do wish the volume could go a bit higher to enhance the listening experience further.
