I bought these ear phones and I have to always reconnect the Bluetooth every time I receive a call or when I swap ear phones . Sometimes I’m listening to music and the earphones are out of sync. It does fit well on my ear on the right side like that earphone has a manufacturer defect

Can they be better, yes, they can and probably with just a firmware update. With Android based phones they seem to work better than with the obvious alternative, at which point you have problems with volume, mainly because Bluetooth doesn’t have full control of the phone’s volume function, you need to keep your eye on your phone, and press volume up to be able to hear regular phone calls, otherwise, sometimes it can be hard to hear the person talking to you. They work perfectly fine for listening to your favorite tunes, so there’s that. Bose needs to work on the firmware under which the headphones are operating currently.

Love these! The option of Quiet, Off, or Aware for outside noise is awesome. Still working on getting used to the voice activated controls, but that's a nice additional option to have as well. Battery life is excellent and the Bluetooth connection is awesome! As always, the Bose sound is the best!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love everything about my new Bose open ear. The color is wonderful. The sound is wonderful the fit the fact that you don’t even know that you are wearing them. They blend in with everything I love them..

I love mine as far as listening to music and podcasts and other things. As others stated, bass response is better than most earbuds but doesn't "thump" like a quality set of in-ear buds or over ear cans can. That said, I really enjoy the experience. It truly is like putting a soundtrack to your life. What I don't understand or love is that they are not compatible with FIND MY app and don't seem to have any way of tracking them. I literally bought these about two weeks ago, and lost them for about a week. I was going nuts and accusing people (in my head) of stealing them. The box said MADE FOR IPHONE which made me think they would be tracked with the FIND MY app. They are not. If you get these, be SUPER careful about where you leave them because you can't track them. If, by chance, I'm wrong about the tracking, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I'd love to be wrong about this!!!!

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 purchased the open ear buds about 4 months ago and use them daily. They are great to use when exercising at the gym, are comfortable and do not fall off the ears like conventional ear buds. Great sound, easy to use, a quality product, that I highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As far as open earbuds go, these are simply the best on the market right now. The sound is what you'd expect from Bose as is the comfort and fit. Battery life is great, though not the best on the market for standby time. I have a pair of open earbuds that can stay in the case for almost a year without ever recharging them, or the case. The price is a bit high, which is why I removed one star.

Big fan of these. I’ve been using Shokz for a few years. The open fit was ok….but the battery life was short and finding the function tap spot was annoying. Not surprised they upgraded that to a button. The Bose has slightly less sound quality but this is due to the orientation of the speaker compared to the Open Fit. The Bose battery is far better. The immersive sound is way cool. The way they wear is top of class. The fit is super comfy and they hold firm. The Bose seems to incur more signal interference…but not enough to be a bother. Overall, I love them. Can’t wait to see how they improve!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Bose Ultra Open Earbuds! They are beyond comfortable. I have tried so many and they all proved to be painful to use, until now. Sometimes I forget there on and it feels like my own personal theme music being played. They help me to have a happy, upbeat day when I get to enjoy some of my favorite playlists. I don't have to turn them off to hear if anyone is speaking to me, or if I need to respond to a conversation around me. I am very happy with them!
