I purchased the new open ear buds three weeks ago and have mixed feelings. The Pro’s: They are extremely comfortable. Sorry, that is it. The Con’s: They connect to one device at a time. They have poor Bass. They not loud at all. They are just enough to listen and hear clearly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been looking for a decent pair to replace an old corded Bluetooth pair I use for chores. I didn’t want earbuds that basically blocked the ear channel but still provided good sound. These work great. I was really hoping BOSE had a good set as I have the sound bar for my TV and that one has proceeded excellent service.

I got the earbuds close to a month ago and I am so disappointed. The first earbuds to have the noise control feature for 8 hours! That means that they can be used to sleep. And yet, they have the initial voice prompt that can't be turn off. If they move a little there is that prompt again that wakes me up time after time. What a shame. So awesome but I have to return them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these! The sound is great! I can wear them for a long time and they still feel comfortable. I fell asleep with them for a few hours…oops…no pain when I woke up. I could have worn them longer.

I have had these for about a week so far. Over all I like them. Good sound and fit nice. The only trouble I am having is with phone calls. Sometimes people can't seem to hear me, or I sound far away. Still trying to figure it out yet. I guess I need to start asking the people that I am talking to, what they sound like on their end. I love them other wise. The Immersive audio setting does cut the battery life down to about 4 hours. I haven't really had the time to play with all the settings and options yet, but so far so good. I am giving a 4 star for now untill I play with the phone calls a little more.

On the positive side, the sound quality is great, and I love that I can hear everything going on around me, especially when running outside but also when my wife wants to talk to me. It also works well with both my Windows 10 computer, my phones, and my Apple iPod and iPad. Unlike the Bose Flex, the volume controls on the ear phones actually work. They are a real improvement over all the ear phones I have been using, both from Bose and Apple. On the negative side, the guidance in the BOSE app is not clear and simple, took me forever to even find it. And the directions given in the support emails do not reflect what I see in the app. And managing the sound between different sources is not easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a real hard time wearing in the ear buds. These are so comfy, stay in place with movement and have great unbelievable sound. I like being able to hear some surroundings with open bud concept. Best investment ever. Great choice of colors too. Love them!!❤️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Never have I ever LOVED listening this much. Especially being a little hard of hearing... this sends all the notes (or dialogue) right into my senses. These Earlobebobs become invisible to feel, but Profoundly an AURAL DELIGHT lasting all through the day on the '1' charge. Only need 1 at a time and the evening listening time is all set with the other earlobebob. I had 2 different pair of A earpieces and they never stayed in place and would fall out at the drop of a hat. And, you know your ears do produce ear wax and all. Yuck.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this two months ago. Love how it stays on my ear. Makes working out and doing chores a lot more enjoyable. I use my headphones daily and every day it just gets better and better, the audio from the headphones are amazing and crystal clear!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am an owner of Beat Pro earbuds, Bose Quiet Ultra II earbuds and just currently purchased the Bose Open earbuds. The initial price scared me off open earbuds but took the plunge when they went on sale. I am appreciative of the sale price, however, since putting the open earbuds into service I am convinced they are worth $299.00. I no longer have to worry about earbuds falling out at the gym and no longer the worrisome intruding in my ear. Plus, the sound is fantastic and enough bass for me, who listen to House Music while working out. I am blown away by the sound (immersion) and still aware of what is going around me. For example, when I first wore them to the gym, though truly enjoying my music, I heard a young ask her gym partner what kind of earbuds was I wearing? He answered my saying those are “Bose” - tops in earbuds. Enough said.
