[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started using BOSE product first time is 4 years ago, and never get a problem. For my first impression with the open ear design so I gave it a try, it's open but the sound is really clear and beautiful. The only problem is microphone in call still really hard to catch the voice, especially when I'm outside. I'm always open to BOSE and this is the big step.

I bought these earbuds for the extended battery life and the reviews I saw online, I love Bose products and I'm a loyal customer. I also have the QC II earbuds and I have to say the sound and NC is superior on the QC II, but the fit is better on the new QC earbuds. The QC earbuds still have amazing sound and good NC. A few things I've been having issues with is connectivity, I have issues with the earbuds connecting to my phone or devices at times and the case is not as simple and easy to open. Overall, they are a good pair of earbuds and value for the price.

I have weird shaped ears apparently because all earbuds I have tried have falled out. I had given up on ever having in ear headphones and living with the hair denting over the ear headphones. My husband convinced me to let him buy these for me for Christmas, and boy am I glad he did. These are AWESOME. They sit around the outside of the ear but the sound is incredible, and oh, they do not fall off my ear. I can now run on the treadmill and listen to whatever I want to because these stay put!

Love the sound, whenever I can get them paired properly. There are just too many options for me and I don't have the patience. Having to power and adjust each earbud separately is a real pain. One day only sound from the left ear bud, the next day only from the right. Occasionally I get it right but don't know how. I am contemplating their return, but will give it a little more time.

I have been using the open earbuds for about a week and they are exactly what I've been looking for for many years! I can wear the earbuds while wearing a headband and winter hat and they don't jam into my ears. The way they are designed allows me to hear traffic and other background noise without compromising the sound of my music, podcast, etc. I've found that I have to turn the volume up higher than I normally would because of the background noise, but the sound quality is just as clear with high volume as low volume. Most importantly, I feel that my safety is not compromised as I can hear what's happening in my surroundings while exercising outside.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these. The fit is great and does not move. I can workout in them and never have to adjust. I forget I have them on. The sound quality is great for listening to music and is great for accepting calls.

Purchased these a month ago. Couldn’t wait to use them at my gym, the day they were delivered. Absolutely LOVE them! Once again…Bose has delivered excellent sound quality! You forget you are actually wearing them. The design is amazing. I have really small ear openings, so all earbuds hurt after a while. I replaced my Beats with these, and I will never go back. I wanted something I could wear outside and still be able to hear my surrounding, but also enjoy good sound quality. Bose you are the BEST!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, I have to start by saying I own Bose Speakers and have always enjoyed their sound. So, buying any product from Bose, I know its going to be top quality. I was skeptical about these open earbuds because I dont like the music their are playing at the gym and I thought their music would interfere with my Bose open earbuds. Much to my surprise, I only heard the music I was playing and they sounded excellent. I enjoy my Bose earbuds and I recommend them to music affectionados.

Why I got these headphones: I work in a lab, occasionally work out and walk outside. I do not like having anything in or completely over my ears for that long Pros: Great balanced audio in immersion, can be worn without blocking out the world. Very comfortable and can be worn for a while Cons: Hard to know how to position them right off the bat but once you find a place that works for you, they are great. My optimal position for audio overlapped with an earring I have but thankfully it is healed enough that it can handle the slight pressure. Great use cases (in my opinion): work tasks, running outside, playing ambient calm sounds for stress, most music Less great use case: Playing (really) loud music or audio for when you need to block out the world or your own thoughts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These open earbuds are great for sports—easy to use, stay secure even during HIIT workouts, and provide clear sound. I highly recommend them for cardio, HIIT, running, and more. They offer two different hearing modes, and the immersive audio makes it feel like the singers are right next to me. However, the waterproofing might be a concern. This is my second set; the first one couldn’t connect to my iPhone and overheated while charging. Fortunately, it was covered under warranty, so I received a replacement for free.
