[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great earbuds and a must if you’re into active running. With the ability to be aware of your surroundings while still immersed in the sound is something not a lot of companies can deliver on but Bose did. Initially I had some issues with the right earbud where it would not turn on but was later resolved. Overall I would grab another pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these about a year ago, and they still look great & work great. They are easy to pair with my phone, laptop, iPad & AirFly! I love the different levels of noise canceling, too! They are a must on any trip I take. Always reliable, and never run out of juice!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound quality is superior to any other earbuds I've ever tried. there are probably two things you can do to improve this. One is just generally update the app it's not user-friendly. It's not easy to scroll through options. The other is to create more variability in size of ear tips. I also have the ultra and they are excellent as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned a lot of audio gear over the years, and I can honestly say Bose just raised the bar again. The Ultra headset is on another level. The noise cancellation isn’t just good—it’s almost disorienting in the best way. The first time I turned it on, the world just disappeared. Flights, coffee shops, even noisy environments at home—it all fades out and you’re left with pure, immersive sound. The audio quality is incredibly balanced with deep, controlled bass and crystal-clear highs. You can tell this was engineered, not just tuned. What really surprised me, though, are the Open Earbuds. I didn’t expect to use them as much as I do—but now they’re my go-to. Being able to stay aware of your surroundings while still getting great sound is a game changer. Whether I’m walking, working, or just moving around the house, they fit seamlessly into my day. Comfortable, secure, and way more immersive than I expected from an open design. Between the two, Bose nailed both ends of the spectrum: complete isolation when you want it, and effortless awareness when you need it. If you’re on the fence—don’t be. This is the kind of upgrade you notice immediately and appreciate more every day. - Bill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to buy these earbuds and I’m glad I did. I really like the awareness mode when I’m out running in the early morning when it’s still dark out. Easy to clean and dry out after a workout, awesome sound as well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had the ultra open ear buds for over a year now and they are awesome for being able to jam out or listen to a book and still be present and alert to your surroundings. Wish I would’ve purchased sooner!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had these earbuds for a little over a year, and they unfortunately started to malfunction. However, the Bose team has been incredible at responding quickly and assisting with support. The earbuds themselves fit great and are very comfortable, even during long periods of use. The sound quality is excellent, with clear audio and well-balanced bass. The noise cancellation is outstanding and really helps block out background noise in busy environments. Overall, I would still recommend them despite the issue I experienced.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are perfect for runners since it never falls out of your ears like the AirPods will during lots of movement. You’re also still able to be aware of your surrounds. I also have a tragus ear piercing and this is the only earbud that won’t mess with it. The downside is you’re not able to track it if one goes missing. I lost one after the half marathon and had to purchase another pair.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these a month ago and not one day I have left them behind. I don't leave my house with out them.I wear these every day, at work at home at the gym. They are by far one of my best purchases I have ever done. Bose never fails always have been top notch I highly recommend these, their clarity their performance their bass their lows and highs. Try them out

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my Ultra Open Earbuds! They fit snugly and are very comfortable - sometimes I forget they are on. They stay secure when I go for a run as well. The sound is good, especially considering they are not for noise cancelling. Definitely glad I purchased them!
