sound and comfort excellent, as to be expected from a Bose product. Instructions on set up are terrible, hard to follow, not accurate. QRS code on the box is not helpful at all as it is not specific to the product. And there are simply too many similar but uniquely different products in look and design. Need both apple and android instruction

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, I have to start by saying I own Bose Speakers and have always enjoyed their sound. So, buying any product from Bose, I know its going to be top quality. I was skeptical about these open earbuds because I dont like the music their are playing at the gym and I thought their music would interfere with my Bose open earbuds. Much to my surprise, I only heard the music I was playing and they sounded excellent. I enjoy my Bose earbuds and I recommend them to music affectionados.

I am so happy about the new design and concept of these new earbuds! My ears no longer hurt after wearing this model for multiple hours. Great to use at the office or just out and about, where you can hear your surroundings and enjoy the music. The immersive sound feature is truly revolutionary! Not only does it give depth like a sound system around your head but you can pinpoint and pick up on certain elements of a song that I was not able to before with just regular audio. The design is very innovative and takes a little time to adjust as compared to other earbuds. Once you have the habit of putting the earbuds on your ear instead of in your ear, you won't even notice a difference. Great product to use in the winter during cold times under your hat! Very comfortable and easy to put on as opposed to headphones trying to go over your hood or hat. Personally, I would not use this model for working out seems to fly out at times. The white noise feature (or the static-like sound) is a little stronger when the music is paused (and when connecting it to your device) compared to the other quiet models where you don't notice it as clearly.

I bought these earbuds for the extended battery life and the reviews I saw online, I love Bose products and I'm a loyal customer. I also have the QC II earbuds and I have to say the sound and NC is superior on the QC II, but the fit is better on the new QC earbuds. The QC earbuds still have amazing sound and good NC. A few things I've been having issues with is connectivity, I have issues with the earbuds connecting to my phone or devices at times and the case is not as simple and easy to open. Overall, they are a good pair of earbuds and value for the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second set of earbuds, from Bose. The newest model is the absolute best and I assumed they could not improve from the last model of open earbuds, I bought three years ago. Surprise! They outdid themselves! The sound is stunning! I am a forever fan of Bose.

These are excellent! I bought them because the pods kept falling out of my ears. And they deliver in many ways! So comfortable, the way they gently atttach to your ears, the sound quality and the fact you can hear what’s going on around you. You need to buy these now. Another great Bose product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these as a birthday gift, they're perfect for when I'm at work, I can stream music and podcasts all well still being able to hear my phone and my coworker's, the sound is impeccable, nothing like conventional AirPods, I love them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these on a whim hoping these would finally solve the issue of me listening to my music and my wife thinking I was trying to ignore her but really all I want to do is just listen to music. This allows me to have them on all day if I want (they are extremely comfortable and you will forget they are on) while still allowing me to freely converse with my wife. It's kind of like your music just follows you around all day in the background. They are really cool and I highly recommend them to family people who don't want to shut out those around them or those people who just want to vibe all day while they are working, exercising, you name it. I also haven't had any complaints from people when using them on calls. Overall they are perfect for me and maybe they will be for you too.

The exceptional clarity of these ear buds will quickly clue you in to every lyrical mistake you've been making. I love singing along with music and these have already helped me! The earbuds are lightweight and comfortable even after hours of wear. It took me several different combinations of ear tips and stability bands to find my fit. Once that was settled I was rewarded with noise cancelling that rivals the noise cancelling headphones. I was surprised to find that function perform so well in earbuds. I work in retail management and am fortunate that my company lets us use ear buds as long as our customer service is on point! I was thankful for the aware setting. I kept them in my ears at work and was still dialed in when employees or customers needed me. I found the controls on the earbuds easy to use and there are even more options while using the app. My only warning? Don't use the noise canceling feature when you need to be aware of your surroundings either for engagement or safety. You will NOT hear what's going on!!! I had zero connectivity issues and am in love with the long battery life. I believe the only downside is they may be a bit too large for some individuals depending on personal preference.

I purchased these a month ago. So far so great! I w was going to return them because everyone said that I sounded far away and most of the time could barely hear me. Silly me wasn’t wearing them properly. I had them on too low around the ear lobes so therefore I was taking off my earrings to use them. SMH.
