I love the ultra open earbuds! I don’t like earbuds that plug into the ear canal, very uncomfortable. The Bose open earbuds don’t plug into the ear canal. So, they are much more comfortable, and I can listen to music for as long as I want without any discomfort. Highly recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the chilled lilac color and it’s amazing how easy it connects to one device to another. It’s comfortable to wear and I’m pleased it’s not in ear and sound clear. Only thing probably steep is the price for them. Also love it stays on ear and doesn’t fall out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had these for a couple of months now but I'm just not wowed. The volume is way to low for me. The fit is great and the idea is solid but being so far from my earhole they make it very hard to hear anything through them. I'm allergic to most silicone pieces that come with buds so I was very excited to see these. My excitement didn't last long. I should have returned them but waited too long.

I bought these because I have sensitive ears and I don’t like standard earbuds going in my ears. While I enjoy that aspect and the sound quality of these earbuds, the microphone quality makes it nearly impossible to use these earbuds for phone calls. As a result, I’ll be returning these earbuds

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchases the Bose Ultra Earbuds because I have a problem wearing earbuds. They make my ears itch and feel “swampy” for lack of a better word. I almost don’t purchase them due to prior reviews but I’m thrilled I did. I can exercise, clean house, basically do any activity and they stay put. The sound is really good but I mainly use them to listen to audiobooks. They are great for music too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these for myself after looking for ear buds that don’t sit in the ear. They always make my ears itch after a while. These are great as they don’t make my ears itch and they stay put. I like how you just press the button to pause and you can participate in conversations. My only issue is they sometimes make my ears itch after hurt is not positioned just right.

I love these earbuds. They sound great and still let me hear the environment around me. In-ear buds block a lot of ambient sounds you may need when someone talks to you or you're outside. Yes, they are different. Yes, they can let ambient sound in, but there are many times during the day when I need to hear what's around me. I wish they were waterproof. The engineering is incredible.

Both my wife and I purchased these earbuds. These are the best earbuds I have used. Excellent on our morning walk with our dogs. We are able to hear our music while being able to hear the dogs and sounds around us. They are so comfortable it is easy to forget you are wearing them. The sound quality is as good as any other earbuds without over-emphasizing the base as some earbuds do. The entire tonal range is well balanced.

I just started using my Bose QuietComfort Earbuds. The sound is amazing and so is the noise blocking. The problems I'm having with it have to do with the fit and the controls. I am using the smallest pieces that come with them, but I still have some trouble getting a good and comfortable fit. I have to choose between comfort and not having it fall out. I also find that the buds are very sensitive to movements in my facial and ear musculature. This means if Im talking or chewing or even moving my head a certain way I may find that it switches modes on me or shuts off. The instructions in the app are not very helpful with this.

I'm genuinely thrilled with my new Bose Open Ear buds. They comfortably grip the ear, making it possible to engage in a variety of activities like running, jumping, sleeping, or even headbanging without them falling off. Yes, I've tested all of these actions, and you can see the proof in my video. What sets these earbuds apart is their ability to let you stay connected to the world around you. They don’t isolate you like other headphones might; instead, they keep you aware and in tune with your surroundings. Bose has ingeniously integrated a technology that offers an immersive sound experience, akin to being in a 3D setting, yet without shutting out external noises. This feature is a game-changer for people like me who need to be alert to their environment. Whether you're a parent listening out for your children, someone in an office waiting for calls or questions, or anyone who relies on hearing ambient sounds for orientation, mobility, or safety—like navigating city streets—these earbuds excel. They even allow you to stay connected to your phone or enjoy your favorite TV show without missing a beat. Wearing them feels almost like wearing nothing at all. I've worn them to sleep on multiple occasions, and unlike other earbuds, they don't cause discomfort or press into the ears. The sound quality is exceptional, ensuring privacy unless someone is very close to you, and even then, only at maximum volume. I wholeheartedly recommend these earbuds.
