Better than I expected. The sound is fantastic, bass is way better than I expected (House Music is my preferred music at the gym), able to be aware of my surroundings and still enjoy my music, and the call is okay. I must admit the open earbuds are so light I sometimes have to check if there are still there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love them! So easy to put on. I usually wear over the ear headphones because the in ear headphones are too big for my ears. These are a great alternative for those of us that can't wear the in ear buds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these about a month or so ago and have been using them on runs, weightlifting and even just walking my dog. They're great so far, they don't move when I do my workouts. (Which involve a lot of snappy movements that would dislodge my normal earbuds). I also really like that I can still hear the world around me. Very nice when walking my dog when I'm trying to pay attention for cars. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants nice earbuds with good sound that won't fall out during a workout, and that want to be able to hear what's going on around them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchase these a couple of weeks ago and have been using them during my workouts. I sweat a lot and they have been perfect! They do not fall off and the sound is great. I worried that I would be able to hear the noise in the gym but I do not and no one hears me. They are so light and comfortable I would not know I had them on if I did not hear the music. They also connect to my Peloton Bike without a problem. I will be giving a pair to my husband for Christmas!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these like 2 months ago and they are amazing. I have 2 piercings in my ears, so it's hard to put headphones on them. But with these, it's, I don't feel them, they're amazing, and they feel great sitting in my ear

I was never genetically gifted to comfortably wear any pair of buds. I've tried so many of them over the years, and they all either hurt my ears or fall out while I'm active. These open earbuds are a game-changer! They're incredibly comfortable – I forget they're even there. Plus, they stay in place no matter what I'm doing, from running to weightlifting. The sound quality is fantastic, though call quality could use a bit of improvement (definitely not a deal breaker). Hands down the best earbuds I've owned!

This is the best open ear set on the market! I wear them for everything, errands, hiking, running. You can hear your music flawlessly and it's great to be able to hear everything thats happening around you - if a neighbour says good morning, you don't miss that and the sound quality is fantastic! I do not have to turn up the volume to max, the sound delivery is incredible. Set up was easy and they are very comfortable.

Let me start by saying that the sound is absolutely phenomenal and Bose level considering these are open earbuds, something that I didn't know was possible. I'm really “really” blown away by the sound quality and almost perplexed as to how Bose has made these open earbuds work. Great great job by Bose! These earbuds doesn't have noise cancellation feature but has different modes as per need and they work really well. My favorite mode is definitely immersive mode which makes you really hone in and listen to tiniest of sound effects as possible. Also when you move your head from left to right, the sound gets focused on that part of your head where you're turning. Saying this, you could use these at gym if you wanna be aware of your surroundings and listen to anything but I would not use these for a phone call at a busier place. I mean you can but all the different sounds are gonna infiltrate your ears since there open earbuds. But at the same time, these are absolutely great if you wear them around the house listen to music or watch something whilst wanting to be aware of your surroundings. I have used them in the night so that I can be aware of my dog barking if she has to go out or they could be a great fit if you have kids as well. The only con for me with these earbuds is that I don't like the feeling of a pinching feeling around my earlobes. I'm a simple man who doesn't wear earrings and have sensitive earlobes so wearing them for prolonged amount of time can really be too much for me and that is the only reason why I'm giving them a 4/5 stars. These wouldn't be my first choice to buy or wear for long periods of time unlike other Bose earphones/headphones but I still cherish them cuz they're a Bose product. Bose is the brand I have trusted for last 20 years of my life and I only buy and will always buy Bose products since I have been fascinated with them since my teen years.

As someone with neck issues and a smaller frame, I've always struggled with headphones—AirPod Pros, for example, can even be uncomfortable and heavy. I hesitated before buying these Bose Open Earbuds, and to be honest, I wasn't thrilled when I first tried them. They felt awkward at first, but after some adjustment, I haven't used any other headphones since. I used to be a big fan of noise-canceling headphones, but as I've gotten older, I need to stay alert to things like kitchen timers, doorbells, incoming emails, and quick conversations around the home. These Bose earbuds solve the constant problem of having to touch or remove my headphones to stay aware of my surroundings. Unlike AirPods, which I found frustrating to pause and still hard to hear through, these don't block my ear canals, and they never fall out. The battery life on the Bose is also incredible—I've rarely had to charge the case. Honestly, I should've tried these sooner. They feel like listening to speakers only I can hear, and I can easily wear them even during long conversations while my media or audio is paused. They are also quite stylish, and I rarely feel the need to remove them; they are seriously so comfortable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a replacement for my quietcomfort ear buds, I was skeptical because it wasn't noise canceling but I was surprised how immersive the music and sound is with the ultra open ear buds. Highly recommend to listen for yourself.
