I have owned the Bose QC earbuds before these and they are not longer holding a steady charge so I purchased these. I am beyond disappointed. I thought I would just buy the newer version of the earbuds, but these have too many silicone tips/surround options and even given that, these still are terrible! The noise cancelling is NOWHERE near my last pair. And, I have tried every combination of tips/surrounds and none of them give me the comfort or noise cancelling of my previous pair. Also, these things are WAY too tiny. I am at a loss because I need a new set of earbuds. Guess I will be looking at Sony. I love Bose and I own the QC35s as well as my current QC buds that are on the blink. I love(d) both, but these are a such a huge disappointment. Let me know when you make earbuds again that live up to my Bose expectations.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These earbuds are the way to go! Allowing you to be mindful of what's going on around you and not dealing with the unit directly into your ear, these earbuds are the best. Probably the best thing is that these earbuds STAY ON. No matter what activity you are doing, they do not fall off. I workout Crossfit style and they don't fall off.

[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’ve owned probably close to 40 different Bluetooth headphones/earbuds throughout the years, but this one definitely is in the top 3. The ear lobe placement is actually extremely comfortable, although it took a little while for me to get used to it. These earbuds get fairly loud but because they’re not located in your ear canal, it’s actually perfect. I do a lot of public running and exercising and need to be able to hear my surroundings. This unit allows me to enjoy my music and still be aware of everything around me. The battery life is good leaving me with zero complaints and the Bluetooth connection is extremely strong and I connected easily 30 feet away from my phone. I realize this design is a little different for some people, but if you keep an open mind, I promise it will surprise you. Definitely the wave of the future because I’ve never liked earbuds that go in the ear canal as it quickly starts to hurt me. Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these a couple weeks ago and they're amazing, obviously they aren't for noise cancelation which is perfect for me. oise canceling earbuds constantly cause me to be hyper aware and stressed because i cant hear anything. However, these allow me to go anywhere and be listening to music (WITHOUT anyone else hearing it) and still be fully aware of my surroundings. They also don't make my ears itchy like in-ear earbuds do. Because they are bone-conduction, the earbuds sound amazing and you can hear sounds that you may not have heard in songs you normally listen to without them. They also somewhat dampen other noises, which can allow me to focus more on noises that i want to focus on. I absolutely love these earbuds and think any bose product i have used thus far are FULLY worth the money if you know what you're looking for.

I bought the Ultra Open Earbuds less than a month ago, I believe I have found an earbud that will keep up with my lifestyle, it easy to keep up with and doesn't fall out of my ear. it keeps me able to listen to the music and still hear whats going on around me without me loosing my concentration of what I am doing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are like having a high end stereo in your head the sound is incredible and they are so comfortable that I forget that I have them in, I also like the fact that you can still hear what is going on around you. It is like a dream come true for an old fogey like me!!!

The reason I bought these earbuds was to go on long walks in the busy city and these worked amazingly I can hear all my surroundings and my music at the same time this is a game changer and the sound quality is great for something that’s not too close to your ear
