[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I finally bought the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds after a few months of thinking about it. I have small ears so earbuds that fit are really hard to find. I've been using them daily at work and at home. I've taken them on a 2-week trip in South America and they worked perfectly. I love them so much I bought a pair for my mom. They last a long time in between charges and they fit very comfortably (I sometimes forget I have them on). Also, I value the fact that I can still be aware of my surroundings when I use them. The only cons I found for me specifically are related to the fact that they can sometimes slide out if my ears at the gym and that they can heat up a little depending on the temperature (both ambient temperature and my own body temperature).

All my co-workers ask me if it was worth the money? It seems too expensive. Every time i say “worth every penny”. The sound unlike any of the other headphones I’ve purchased. Along with the app and all of the adjustments available, I continue to stand behind the Bose name.

This is a very good ear buds from Bose. Another product that’s worth considering. I have a Bose earphones and headphones both have noice canceling features and I love it except that when they are nit go in the ears compared to the Ear Buds. The sound qualify is definitely better and the immersive features is superior.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me just start w saying that I'm a Bose guy 100% I've bought many pairs of bose earbuds & speakers and I think they're the BEST! The open air buds are great however I cut grass in a park and these buds are not for outside work w noisy machinery. That was my fault but I'm glad I have them. The only thing that I wish is that they could be a bit louder. But overall they're great!

I absolutely love these. They allow me to hear my surroundings, as long as I don’t turn the volume up too much. Because they do not sit inside your ears, they are extremely comfortable. No pain or sweaty ears like regular earbuds. I would highly recommend them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really excited to try these earbuds. The problem is that they didn't adjust to my ears. It ended up being too far away. That made it such that I could not hear people on my phone clearly. Sad because I really wanted to like these.

I have worn the new open earbuds for about a month now. I loved them so much I suggested my wife try them on. She loved them too! We both are now enjoying the comfort and sound these tiny ear pieces provide us. Thank you Bose for coming up with something so useful.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I believe the Bose quiet quietcomfort earbuds is totally what the doctor orders for a peaceful of mind while sitting in your comfort zone enjoying the true noise canceling in earbuds with inner peace that truly makes your world.

From a value perspective, these buds are great. The ANC is the number one reason I got them, and while they're not QC Ultra great, it's close enough that it blocks out what I need blocked out. The next great thing about them is the battery. I can indeed get 8+ hours of quiet listening in ANC mode. Most impressive. I don't think any product in this form factor has this level of endurance. The listening experience is a distant third, and it's good enough. I listen mostly to podcasts and soft music, and these buds deliver. The bad news, and it's a big one for me because this is a primary use case for me. I'd been using QC30s for many years because they're comfortable in bed and last over 10 hours with ANC on. I was hoping these buds would replace the QC30s. They can, but they have a serious flaw: these buds turn off when you're idle for about 15 minutes. I take a nap and go to sleep on buds due to being in a noisy environment. Even if I'm connected to my device and listening to music, they will just cut out and turn off after 15 minutes. This is such a deal breaker. I know it can be easily fixed because the notification message that disables this auto-off function is baked into the software, but is somehow unavailable in the lackluster app that comes with the buds. Very disappointing. I'm hoping Bose fixes this issue soon, because these would indeed be 5-star buds without this issue. If napping or sleeping with these buds is not your use case, these buds will not disappoint. If you do need buds for napping or sleeping, avoid these until Bose fixes it.

Bought these recently and am completely happy with them. They’re perfect for my purposes, working in the garden, around the house, etc. They’re very comfortable; after a few minute wearing them, I don’t even know I’ve got them on. Sound is very good, music and voices come through very clearly and outside sounds are still audible.
