[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these for a Christmas present for myself. They are very comfortable and feel like wearing nothing. The microphones are placed on the inside so you have to adjust them sometimes for people to hear you.They also have great sound!

I bought them a couple of weeks ago, but I’m having trouble with my earbud for my right ear sometimes there is static or no sound at all. My earbuds are up to date. So I’m not sure why the one earbud is not working properly. For the amount of money I spent on these earbuds I would think there would be no issues with them.

I have tried all in ear products and could never keep them in till these. They are amazing with great sound and features. You can use different modes depending on what you need, like when someone talks to you they lower so you can hear the person or block out everyone mode. Only complaint when I ran with them in towards the end of my run the were sliding around because of sweating.

I'm visually impaired and use public transport or walk everywhere. I like listening to music and podcasts but using full noise cancelling earbuds even in "abient" or "aware" modes I am still unable to hear what is going on around me. I bought these because I like Bose brand and thought I would try them. They are brilliant!! I hear my media clearly and most importantly there is no intereference to the background noise I rely on, traffic etc. They are very lightweight, phone quality is pretty good, usual Bose quality. The biggest issue I have is that they are so unobtrusive I forget Im wearing them and when I take my sweater off they get knocked off my ears. Which if you read the first sentence makes them hard to find!! Not the earbuds fault though. To be clear they are not noise cancelling, they work in a noisy airport but are not loud enought for use on the plane. If your phone has an eq setting in its app playing around with that can really dial them in for your best sound. I really like them, use them all the time and will probably get a second set when they go on sale.

My wife has a pair of bose earbuds and works from home. I bought the ultra open earbuds to help her hear the open meetings that she usually attends through conference calls. I asked her to try them out and she was excited about the new design. She gave me the quiet comfort earbuds and now she can enjoy her music and meetings at the same time. Thank you for the new product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these to use as my streaming/gaming headphones and they are excellent. I’m able to have an immersive audio experience while still being perfectly aware of my surroundings. Super comfortable too, I recently did a 24 hour marathon stream and wore them the whole night and never felt like they were bothering me.

I am struggling with loving these due to them not staying connected despite having disconnected and reconnected. They are also not working with hey headphone or Siri and I was just hoping to love this pair. I might be returning them. I wish I would’ve spent the extra for the newer version…

Great sound when listening to music however it has randomly disconnected at times. Answering and talking on calls has been the biggest disappointment. When I talk on cellphone, my calls sound static and not clear. It’s frustrating and I have to disconnect and talk with cellphone.

It's so light that you don't notice it at all even when you're wearing it. The sound quality is as expected from Bose. All I can say is that they are amazing, even though they are truly open-ear earphones. I used to use various open-ear earphones because insert-type earphones caused infections inside my ears, but I finally found some good earphones. I can't let go of this anymore.

Had an opportunity to use these buds for over a month now. This is a unique concept, in having an earbud that does not fit into the ear but rests outside of the ear canal. This allows for pass-through of natural sound while playing music/taking phone calls. This is the best "open-ear" earbud on the market. The sound quality is what you'd expect from a Bose product. The sound is "loud;" you don't have to position the bud closer to the ear canal to get a good, clean, crisp sound. The physical buttons make operation much easier and eliminates accidental touches. The flexible ear hook allows for easy on-off of the buds, and you don't have to worry about the bud falling off. The negative: Call quality is not good. Many callers state that it sounds muffled and underwated-like. While I rarely use these for phone calls, I found it difficult to have conversations because of this drawback. This is the perfect option for someone looking to buy earbuds but hates placing them in the ear. There is nothing else on the market that matches these.
