Great earbuds

I've had these about a month. I tried using them at night when I play my sleep stores. They're not bad, if you get them situated right in your ear they don't cause too much discomfort. Where they are really good is when I mow yard. I put them in and "wow".........couldn't hardly hear the mower at all, and my music sounded great. But then again.........it's Bose! :>)

Forget You’re Even Wearing Them

I bought these earbuds hoping for something a bit different—and they exceeded my expectations. The design is innovative, and they're so comfortable I often forget I'm wearing them (until my toddler tries to pull them off). They stay put during exercise and let in just the right amount of ambient sound, which has been great for walking the dog or having conversations without needing to remove them. While call quality in noisy environments isn’t their strong suit, it’s perfectly fine in normal/quiet settings. The sound quality is excellent, and if I ever lost them, I’d buy another pair without hesitation.

Open ear, ear buds

Had them a few weeks. I like how they stretch to stay in place and are comfortable. Don not slid from ear like some other type. The open air allows for conversation when necessary but also limits sound level for the ear since they’re not in the ear canal. Battery life seems good , so far.

Great sound and features

Love these and ability to customize. Music is awesome. However I can only use one at a time, given that even on “aware” mode I feel somewhat isolated. My problem is that my iPhone does not work well with making or answering calls. Great for tunes those. The excellent sound I expect from Bose.

Just so so…

They don’t sound well at all and they certainly don’t get loud enough to compete with surrounding noise! They are fine if you are sitting in a quiet area or office workspace but I don’t have an office job and if I’m in my house I just sitting around I listen to my Bose speakers.

Great

I bought these a month ago and it took me a bit to find the "sweet spot" but once I found it I have been happy ever since. I am extremely hard of hearing and wear hearing aids that are connected to my phone so I cannot use the Earbuds while wearing the hearing aids but other than that I am very happy with my purchase.

Perfect for different needs

I have a teenager, and while this should be self-explanatory, let me explain. She hasn’t taken off her headphones for more than a few minutes in over four years. I was so frustrated at constantly having to text her whenever she was needed, and the in-ear headphones caused a lot of stubborn earwax build-up that we had to deal with. So I got her the Bose Open Ear headphones—and just like before, they haven’t come off. But this time, at least she can hear her surroundings. She’s still able to enjoy her music and podcasts, but now she can respond when someone calls her, hear me without shouting, and even stay aware of what’s happening around her. As a parent, that’s a huge relief. No more isolation, no more ear problems—just a happy teenager who still gets her constant soundtrack, and a parent who doesn’t feel ignored. Because of this, I got a second pair for myself. I had the previous in ear Bose and it never quite fit right. These solve that issue for me and I am overall extremely satisfied.

Good at first but really bad in noisy environments

I bought these 3 weeks ago. At first, I thought they were great. They seemed to be clear sounding and the noise cancellation was great. However, I took them on a long flight and noticed that the noise cancelling did not filter out when airline workers were talking on the PA system. The talking was clear as day, which I was a little annoyed by. I don't know if that is a feature so users can hear airline workers but I could also hear conversations of those talking nearby clearly with the noise cancelling on, which I did not like. Later on in the flight, I also noticed that there was a weird grinding noise in my earbuds that was not present when I took the earbuds out. I intend to return these as the noise cancelling feature was not usable and had annoying side effects that I do not want to tolerate.

If like the wired ear plugs the sound is great

These earbuds are too Big & they hurt my ears! Was hoping to replace my wired Bose, sad to say They Did Not replace them I use they more. Bought two pair years ago and just shared a pair with my husband he said they sound the best he has used. I had called and asked about a smaller ear bud, was told I would get a kit to fix them But ten days and No Kit!! till then NO More Stars

Love them!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently switched from using Beats to trying out Bose cuffs for the first time, and I have to say, I’m really so IMPRESSED. These are definitely the best earbuds I’ve had. It’s a relief not to feel like I’m underwater, and I can wear both earbuds comfortably without any issues. I can wear them all day without issue, having normal conversations when needed. Sometimes I forget I have them in (so comfortable). I genuinely enjoy them and find myself spreading the love to everyone I know. I've even insisted my family/friends try mine to hear for themselves..LOL. If you’re considering a new pair of earbuds cuffs, these are the very BEST...proven 🤗
