My new favorite headphones for the gym!

I have been looking for the perfect headphones for the gym for a long time and my search may finally be over! I do a few hours of intense exercise (CrossFit, running) just about everyday and until now I haven’t found the right headphones yet. Other products fall out easily, have terrible sound or are just too uncomfortable to wear for extended periods. First the fit, it takes a few minutes to get them into the right place on my ear. Part of that problem is that my off hand is clumsy. However once I had them in place they stayed there. I ran with them, lifted weights and did movements such and burpees and they didn’t fall out even once! Very impressive. The sound was awesome. Plenty of bass but I’d say the sound is pretty well balanced. With the open ear design I worried I would be hearing my music AND the gyms music but that turnout to not be an issue unless I was right under the gyms speakers. One of my favorite features of these headphones were the buttons. They feel solid and work well. I have some headphones that are controlled by tapping the sides and it’s super annoying to be lifting overhead and accidentally stopping your music or changing the volume. Physical buttons for the win! I was able to wear the ear buds for hours with no problems with comfort. Some miscellaneous thoughts. I was able to run about 100 meters from my phone and still maintain connection with my earbuds! Awesome! Call quality was very clear! And lastly this might be TMI but I have an ear that produces lots of earwax! It has wrecked in ear buds in the past. That is not an issue with the Ultra Ear buds because they don’t go into the ear canal that deep. So if you have ear wax issues these are perfect! My biggest con is the charging case lid, the hinge seems a little fragile. Maybe the silicone case will help with that? I’ll find out once it arrives. I am beyond happy with these earbuds and it’s nice to have finally found a product that fits all my needs while exercising !

Comfortable, great fit, and good sound.

I have been using these for the past few weeks most days and love them so far, oy earbuds i have ever said that about. So far I would say they have great comfort and stay in place! I have often found myself forgetting im wearing them if not actively listening to something and havent had them fall off at all when exercising. It does take some time to get used to wearing them as recommended but mainly to find the right position for the best sound, i do wish the band was slightly larger or adjustable so that it would be just ever so slightly louder and clearer at times. They definitely have good range I'm able to walk around my house with my phone sittingon the charger with no issues. The sound is amazing in quiet places, but loud environmentscan be tricky. The immersion modes are fun, still was great for watching show though I used motion a lot while walking around with them in stores or at home. It's a subtle sound adjustment but very enjoyable. As i said before ut does have trouble with louder noises ie vacuuming was not as enjoyable as music was drowned out though still able to hear it. I tried out the auto volume adjust but it didn’t seem to do much in this situation and was subtle overall. The app seemed to work well with them, it made it easy to add new devices, you can also do it via shortcuts but I never tried it that way. There is an option in shortcuts to change devices which was nice a bit slow but faster than going to app. Though the shortcuts did reset on me a couple of times which I noticed when trying to change devices. Battery life seemed good, no issues with it running low aside from the time I left them out overnight on purpose. Otherwise they stayed charged just from dropping them in the case, though definitely wish the case was set up for wireless charging on it. Overall I think these are excellent earbuds and definitely see myself using them more than any in-ear earbuds I have used in the past.

Great sound and desing , but with great defects

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound is great, the design is cool, is good that you don't have to plug them in directly in your ears. Unfortunately, they stared acting strange, the earbuds may discharge randomly, then one of them stop working, just after 2 months I've bought them. But the warranty worked perfectly , they send me a new pair in exchange

Innovative ear buds

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bose, you’ve absolutely outdone yourselves with these earbuds! When I first got them, they felt a little unfamiliar, but now? It’s like they were custom-made for me. The comfort level is unreal—I genuinely forget I’m even wearing them! The ability to hear the outside world while still enjoying crystal-clear audio is nothing short of genius. The mic quality is top-notch—calls are crystal clear, and everyone can hear me perfectly, even in noisy environments. Battery life? Absolutely impressive! They last for hours on end, and I never have to worry about constantly charging them. These earbuds have completely changed the way I experience sound and communication, and I can’t imagine going back. Truly a masterpiece. Well done, Bose!

Decent open earbud experience

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Audio is nice for open ear-style earbud. Comfort is very nice. However, microphone during calls is absolutely horrible. You can have a conversation with them, but I've noticed that most times there's a lot of repeating what I said that doesn't happen with other earbuds.

Very comfortable.

I have really small ears and have always had issues with ear buds. I really like the fit and comfort of these, they stay in place. That being said, I’m really disappointed in the voice quality when I answer calls. I guess I’ll only use them to listen to music. 😫

Very sorely disappointed

I bought this a month ago and am entirely unhappy with the sound quality, specifically with phone calls. The sound quality is good for music etc, but with phone calls it’s basically unusable..bad and distant sound and an intolerable echo. I spent a lot of time with Bose support without resolution..they offered a replacement set and were very clear, if the replacement set was unsatisfactory it would be unreplaceable and non refundable…all the wrong answers.

Love them!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love them! I bought these several months ago and have really enjoyed using them. The vibrant blue colour I chose makes for stylish accessory. The sound is better than good as is usual with Bose; and I don’t feel claustrophobic using these earbuds. I have had them on for an online meeting, while carrying on conversations with others without problem. Taking one star off as the sound can be low, and the sweet spot in the ear has to be found time and again by moving the earbuds around a little bit; would’ve been half a star if that were an option. I’ve bought half a dozen pairs for my colleagues in my law firm!
