Ordered these open ear buds - hoping that the features (and fit) would work for me. They are exactly what I wanted! I walk 20 miles a week and ride mountain bikes 2 or 3 days a week. I wanted a product that allowed me to listen to music, but still able to clearly hear what’s around me. I also get tired of earbuds jammed into my ear canal - sometimes making my ears sore, not to mention the damage from listening to punk rock too loud. These open buds shoot the sound to your ear canal with surprising clarity. Jazz / classical / rock / podcasts all sound great. No - they’re not noise cancelling, and the sounds isn’t as great as my Bose QC’s, but they’re perfect for what I wanted. Great product - highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m impressed with these earbuds simply from the point of view of proof of concept. The sound quality is pretty good, but it’s simply not loud enough even if you crank the volume all the way up, you just don’t get the same feeling of being surrounded by sound as you do with for example my Bose quiet comfort headphones. That being said they’re cool looking they work as described but the price point being so high coupled with the fact that they can’t deliver the same sound quality as over the ear headphones, makes it a no go for me.

I’ve only had my earbuds for a few weeks but I will admit I love using them! I wanted a good set that wouldn’t hurt my ears and because this pair simply wraps around my ears instead of going inside, they are pain free. They were easy to pair with my phone and the sound quality is excellent. I like that I can switch listening modes from sitting, to walking, to outdoors, etc. The only ding I will give them is I am not able to control the volume on them. It worked the first day but everyday after I’ve had to set the volume on my iPhone. I even removed the Bose app from my phone and started all over but that didn’t work. So if I’m outside or doing whatever, I can’t increase or decrease the volume unless I have my phone with me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the earbuds since the new year. The sound is really good. Wish there was a little more volume. Being open is good for driving and being around other people. I always used closed buds before and always loved the sound but these are right up there. Battery lasts me about 6 hours. Charge back to 100% very quick in the case. Then back to my music. I even take calls then just go back to music. So far so good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my earbud for Christmas and I’ve been using it every day. I use it at work all day long and I use it when I go for my walk and rollerblading. Now I’m looking at one of the Bose headphone for meditation and traveling I need a quiet surround sound.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly I regretted turning down the quiet comfort for the ultra open. I have to turn the volume up to 100%100 communication is still very poor. I forced to put my controller on speaker phone. It’s very irritating. In addition, I missed the tosh future as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I been using it for a week now. Its the most comfortable headphones I ever had. wearing them until they get down to 10%. Which last closed to 6hrs then I put on the other ear. So it last me alday. I like the physical touch. My suggestion is that touch should be the same on both sides commanding voice recognition not just on the left side. The volume can a little Improve especially for phone calls. Other than that I recommend this headphones.

Good sound but only works if you don’t have a lot of noise around you. I have found that if I am on a loud environment like a restaurant I can barely understand what is coming out of the ear pods. I ended buying the regular ones for that kind of use and leaving this for inside the house use, too expensive for what I am able to use them.

Definitely not up to Bose standards. It’s a good concept but poorly done. These need to be adjustable. They don’t fit my ear well and the sound doesn’t get into my ear. The plus is they stay in place. The con is the sound quality and volume are not good. Wore them on a plane yesterday and could not hear music at all over plane noise. Cannot recommend them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sound is great IF the buds fit your ear, if not others hear it louder than you. I have thick cartilage and a deep drop into my ear. I've tried everything, they do NOT fit my ear. These aren't like buds so there is no adjustability, they sit where they sit. They work for you or they don't. Luckily I have some Quiet Comforts and they are incredible. But if you have anything but a dainty ear structure, I would definitely try them on first. I was so looking forward to them but alas too many helmets and wrestling in my early years.
