Not for everybody

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these for Christmas and I have learned to really enjoy them. It does take some time to figure out the best ear position and it’s definitely not good if you enjoy the speaker in your ear loudly

Needs a second generation.

Desperately needs iteration, but the idea is good. The case is very bad. Flimsy lid that feels way to cheap for this price point. The earbuds are comfortable, but need another pass for perfection. Sound quality is very good. Feels like you're listening to music from the room around you. Refine these and drop the price and they will be a bit.

Not Impressed

I brought this product last year and I’m not impressed by it. I know it’s better because it’s not inside my ear. Nevertheless, on the subway, bus, and/or in public in general I can hear everything and the volume is at max. The older version with the noise cancellation sounds much better and worth the price.

Amazing sound and comfort. Not practical for work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When paired to my phone and used to listen to music, they sound amazing. And if that's all you're going to use them for, you may really enjoy them. They are super comfortable and don't interrupt what's going on in the environment one is in. I bought them to replace an aging wireless headset that I use for work, however; and they weren't a good choice for that purpose. The first issue I have trying to use these the way I intended is lack of ability to mute the microphone without interacting with the device they are connected to. I really wanted to be able to move around the house while in a meeting without devices strapped to me and I simply cannot do that with these. The other problem I run into is the battery life. They last about 4 hours on a full charge. The documentation says longer, but the right earbud that is doing the processing for the connection uses more power and its battery dies well before the left. In this state you can still listen with the left for the full 5 hours or so, it's not a good experience, and you lose the ability to interact with your device with the right earbud out of commission. So, while these earbuds are amazingly comfortable, enough to put on and wear all day; I actually forget that I have them on, they don't work all day. I wish I had done more research before buying as it's hard to justify the extra cost of these versus something that has the functionality I need.

Almost Perfect

I bought these ear buds 3 weeks ago and am absolutely thrilled with them EXCEPT for the lack of battery capacity. I can only get about 4-5 hours of use before they need charging. Doing chores around the house these ear buds are amazing as you can hear your music AND hear conversations or whatever is going on around you. If it weren't for the battery life I would give these buds 5 Stars! They are BOSE quality!

New Open Earbuds Contender

Pros: Comfortable to wear all day Battery life appears optimal; quick charge Excellent audio quality Uncompromised audio from surroundings Ease of use to wear Option/ability to wear 1 earbud Switching devices is fast and simple Build quality Cons: Occasional bluetooth disconnection on Android Auto-pause media once 1 earbud removed is absent Ability to increase/decrease volume using one earbud Ability to have program multiple shortcuts per earbud The Bose Open Earbuds Ultra came in a compact box that's perfect for it’s size and footprint. Setup was simple using the Bose Music app. Attaching the earbuds to your ears with proper fit takes some getting used to and instructions with pictures/videos definitely helped. Build quality of the earbuds appears premium as time will tell if flexibility remains strong enough to clasp around ears. I’m using the earbuds with an Android phone and an iPhone. I had some initial issues getting the Bose Music app to connect to the earbuds on Android, but after force-closing the app it connected successfully. I have been using the earbuds while working from home and mostly around the house while doing chores or relaxing. I've even shared one earbud with my wife, and we listened to a playlist while preparing to host a party. Call quality has been excellent when I've used while running errands. Aside from an occasional bluetooth disconnection, I can wear the buds all day without ear fatigue. I get around 6 hours out of the buds in immersive mode before the battery fully depletes, but the case charges the buds really fast. Sound quality has been excellent while still having the ability to hear my surroundings. I own a pair of bone conducting earphones for this benefit, but one of the major compromises is audio quality. Most of the ANC earbuds from known major competitors also have capabilities to let in noise from your surroundings but some prefer not to jam earbuds into your ear canal or wear headphones over your ears. There are pros and cons for both devices, and I think these open earbuds offer an excellent option for those people.

Quality on this pair not that great

People say they can't hear me that good and it sounds like I'm under water talking and they're constantly asking me to repeat myself, come on BOSE I'm about to return them it's defeating my purpose of buying them. I went with these cause I needed noise canceling

Great sound!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got these a week ago. So far I love them. The sound has great quality which is what I expect for a Bose product. I have put the buds in the wrong way but other than that, they are great. I am unsure how long they will stay intact since the piece that goes behind the ear seems it may ware. I will provide an update a few months in.

Great features!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it for the purpose of working out and traveling. I'm always on the go, and I really like this product since I can hear my surroundings, and it clips to my ear. Very versatile, and I won't lose it, and the other products hurt my ear. Inside this one is very convenient and comfortable, and I keep losing earbuds. When I saw that this one was clipped on, I knew I had to have it. And the sound was amazing, and I'm very happy with my purchase.
