After years of using in-ear headphones, the fit of these took some getting used to but giving them a try has been so worth it. I've worn them out on a few runs and am thrilled to report that they stay put and deliver quality sound, while the open ear design allows for greater awareness of what's happening around me. They're my new go-to for any outdoor activity.

I'm genuinely thrilled with my new Bose Open Ear buds. They comfortably grip the ear, making it possible to engage in a variety of activities like running, jumping, sleeping, or even headbanging without them falling off. Yes, I've tested all of these actions, and you can see the proof in my video. What sets these earbuds apart is their ability to let you stay connected to the world around you. They don’t isolate you like other headphones might; instead, they keep you aware and in tune with your surroundings. Bose has ingeniously integrated a technology that offers an immersive sound experience, akin to being in a 3D setting, yet without shutting out external noises. This feature is a game-changer for people like me who need to be alert to their environment. Whether you're a parent listening out for your children, someone in an office waiting for calls or questions, or anyone who relies on hearing ambient sounds for orientation, mobility, or safety—like navigating city streets—these earbuds excel. They even allow you to stay connected to your phone or enjoy your favorite TV show without missing a beat. Wearing them feels almost like wearing nothing at all. I've worn them to sleep on multiple occasions, and unlike other earbuds, they don't cause discomfort or press into the ears. The sound quality is exceptional, ensuring privacy unless someone is very close to you, and even then, only at maximum volume. I wholeheartedly recommend these earbuds.

Honestly, I have waited for years for the perfect open earbuds from any manufacturer, and these were 150% worth the wait! My ears are extremely difficult to fit so in-ear buds are not an option. These are comfortable, allow atmospheric noise so I can walk comfortably with my dogs and still hear what's going on around me, and the sound quality is 100% Bose. I'm convinced there are no better open earbuds out there.

I watched a few You Tube videos and I was impressed with the unique design. I experienced some annoying ear fatigue with my Google earbuds and I thought I'd try the Bose Earbuds are supposed to eliminate this problem. Boy did they succeed! These are buy far the best earbuds I've ever owned! The sound quality is amazing and they stay very secure on the ear. These buds are worth every single penny!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a runner and the Bose Ultra Open earbuds are a perfect choice for me because they are comfortable, stay in place, and I can hear the traffic around me. My use of them have evolved into taking them to the office with me also. I would definitely purchase them again.

I have had these ear buds about 3 weeks now and they are my favorite already. I have worked out with them, mowed the lawn, done chores around the house and used them to listen to music at work. Other earbuds feel like they are slipping out when I work out and get sweaty, these earbuds are comfortable, have an amazing battery life and the noise canceling means I don’t have to turn the volume up completely making the battery last even longer. My first choice is usually headphones when listening to music but I think I have found my new favorite listening device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got them for Christmas and I just love them. I asked for them for a few reasons. First of all the sound. Bose has always been the speakers we look for. The quality is top notch. And for these earbuds, they don't fall off when I am at work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like using the earbuds at work because I can be hearing music and if someone is speaking to me I can still hear them. The call quality could be better but its not too bad. The fit is comfortable and the buttons are easy to use.

The headphones themselves are amazing! I love them! They are so light weight and comfortable! I keep them charged at all times so I don’t have to go without. The silicon case on the other hand is a complete waste of 24.00. It doesn’t stay on the top half of the box and it’s the type that just collects dust and hair. I regret wasting the money. I saw they have cloth ones for other headphones I wish that was what was a available for the Ultra Open Earbuds.

I bought this 2 weeks ago and I have tried to use it many a times. It works great for listening music/videos with the immersion on& off mode. My biggest problem is phone calls are not going well. People are telling me that the sound is not clear to them. So, it’s disappointing and I want to return it.
