[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these, about a month ago, have mixed feelings about them. They are very comfortable. Talking on phone, using earbuds, person I am talking to, always say having problems, understanding and hearing what I am saying.

I've been using these Bose Ultra Open Earbuds now for about two weeks. I must say, when I ordered them I was skeptical because I work in a factory and thought the lack of noise cancelling would be an issue. I love the design and fit of the wrap around earbuds instead of the typical in ear earbuds which seem to give me ear infections because I wear them so much. Listening to music in the factory is perfect even without noise cancelling, I can hear everything around me and turn the music down just enough to hear it in the background. The adaptive volume works great, meaning as you go in and out of higher background noise areas the volume automatically adjusts. The only drawback to these earbuds is that if you listen to a lot of podcasts, the higher volume background noise can wash out the spoken voice, but not so with music. Overall I am very happy with these earbuds! I would highly recommend them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have this for about a month and I can tell you what a game changer it has been i always had an ear bud on and before with the AirPods Pro I could not heard anything around me but with this Bose ones I have still listen to what is playing and anything happening around me too

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my ultra open earbuds now for about a month. I use them every day and I absolutely find them to be the most comfortable and stable earbuds I’ve ever owned. I’ve inadvertently walked into the shower twice because they are so comfortable you forget you’re wearing them. No problems and the sound is everything you would expect from Bose.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The appearance design is eye-catching, and the overall wearing experience is also very comfortable. The headphones are equipped with Bose's latest OpenAudio open audio technology, continuing Bose's classic immersive audio effects, allowing open headphones to also have a full sense of "immersion".

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had many pairs of bose headphones, the open ear buds have been great! I've had tubes in my ear due to pressure and the open earbuds have been completely worth the money, not having to put buds in my sensitive ears, but still have the sound quality i've grown to expect from bose while living in hot humid florida i really cant complain, plenty of airflow obviously with the superior sound i've since bought a pair for my wife to enjoy too! if you can afford them, and are looking for buds i cant recommend them enough.

Best headphones ever!! I forget they are in sometimes because they are so comfortable. The sound quality is wonderful too. Now, I do wish the phone option was better because people sometimes say I sound muffled. Hopefully they will fix that with the next version which I’ll for sure buy again!!

I have small ears with one of them particularly unfit for earbuds. These are the only earbuds that stays on my ears. (I haven't tried on "clip" design other than these though.) I still feel angle of speakers isn't quiet optimal but the sound quality is great and you can carry on conversation with others with these on. Surprisingly open design doesn't spill sound much and you can't hear anything standing next to the person wearing these. I wish price was better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally found a solution to : * earbuds constantly falling out of my small ears * not being able to listen to my kid while watching a movie on a plane * not being able to enjoy a movie on a plane because I had to pull out my noise cancelling headphones to hear what my kid is saying :)

I fell in love with the Open Earbuds on day one. They immediately solved two of my complaints with other earbuds: 1) Comfortability for long periods. I don’t find most earbuds comfortable for hours of wear but I forget that I have on. Comfortable but secure. I have done hot yoga and spin classes with absolutely no problems, adjusting, or discomfort. 2) Block out other noise I need/want to hear. I can be listening to music at the office and still hear when someone calls my name or walking my dog yet hear a car approaching from behind. No longer do you have to do the one earbud thing so you can have one ear open. These two issues are solved without compromising the sound quality. Now, these are not for everyone or every application. You want to mow your lawn while listening to a podcast – these are not for you. You want to cancel the sound of your annoying coworker slurping their hot coffee – not the best for that either unless you turn up the volume on your music. But if you want to have a comfortable, quality sound while still being able to hear the instructor at your workout class – this is what you have been waiting for!
