[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are definitely something different. Instead of sitting in or over your ears, they kinda wrap around them, resting just outside your ear canal. The idea? Great sound while still letting you hear what's going on around you. Perfect for running, biking, or just walking around without feeling cut off from the world.

On my second set as the first one had issues. Bose replaced promptly so no issue there. Why I give a 3 is for a few reasons. Battery life is terrible. Max 4 to 5 hours when listening to music so not very long. Sound quality is pretty good but volume level is very low. Overall is a good set of ear buds if you hate the in ear version like me so with the money as they do a ok job for my needs but hopefully future version have better battery life and sound quality.

We absolutely LOVE these. We have purchase 4 pair over the past 6 months...for ourselves and two for gifts. The sound is great (always w Bose) but the clip on allows us to work in the yard, house, etc without the fear of losing one or both ear pieces (like we did w other types).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these as a gift for my wife who used a different brand of earbuds fthat kept falling out of her ears. She is tickled pink with them, she said it sounds like she is at a concert when she uses them.

After so many tries and failed attempts to find headphones, I finally let my husband pick a pair out for me. I had mentioned that I wanted to try Bose and he selected the Quiet Comfort earbuds. It has been a month since I received them and I am in music heaven. They are the absolute best. I only wish I would have purchased them sooner. To anyone out there that has been struggling with other brands, please save yourself the heartache and get a set of Bose. Btw...they arrived so quickly, I was amazed.

I purchased these earbuds drawn by their sleek and modern design, which is indeed quite attractive. However, the user experience has been incredibly frustrating. It's nearly impossible to hold a clear conversation, join a meeting, or record a voice message without issues. The microphone quality is poor, and the noise cancellation doesn’t make up for the overall lackluster performance on calls. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of buying them without doing much research… and to make matters worse, I bought not just one but two pairs. Honestly, this product is nowhere near the quality standard one expects from a brand like BOSE. If I could, I would definitely return them. I wouldn’t recommend it

I have been using these for the last few months, mainly for audiobooks and some music. I purchased these because I need open air headphones and these are far and away the best I have ever used. Battery life has been great. Connection has been solid. My only star reduction is that I need them to be a little louder on occasion. Small nitpick.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought Bose open earbuds for one reason. I needed to be able to listen to music, tv and be able to exercise and still be able to hear the environment around me. These open earbuds solve that issue. The sound is incredible considering the buds aren’t in your ear canal. They fit comfortably and securely on your ear. I could not be happier.

Used it for almost 3 weeks. Excellent sounds like all Bose products and super easy to use. Very comfortable on the ears. The only down side, they are open earbuds; ergo, only suitable for low surrounding noise (gym, jogging, etc.). Used it on my weekly bike rides and on rough road surfaces or high speed (above 15 mph) cannot hear anything other the road noise or wind blowing.

After a few weeks, the earbuds are uncomfortable and I have to take them off for a few hours. The sound is so low I can barely hear the music. I used the app to help raise the volume, but it’s still too low to hear much. So far, I’m not happy with these open ear buds.
