Love my Baby Blue.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased ultra open earbuds about three weeks ago. Now I will not leave my home without my baby Bose. Love it. Thinking about getting the second so I will not be without it when one is recharging.
I love Bose and their warranty !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely LOVE my open ear buds. Foolishly I lost one at the gym, kept checking to see if it was turned in, but sadly, no. Was going to see if I could order just one to replace, but that wasn't an option. Fortunately I had inquired about it through my warranty, sent it in with the prepaid label and boom, 10 days later I was rockin at the gym with a new pair! Thank you Bose, that's just one of the reasons I will never use a different brand, sorry, but you're stuck with me!!!!!!!
Your mileage may vary based on your ears.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These buds sound really good, but they end up hurting my ears after about an hour of wearing them. It's probably just my ears, but wanted to pass that along to others. I really think the shape of your ears is going to make or break your experience. The bass is surprisingly good for open ear buds. I do wish the part that is in your ear, so to speak was a little bit longer so it made it a little closer to my ear canal. I know the main draw for these is to be able to hear the outside world while wearing them, but when I push them just a touch closer to my ear canal they really do sound better and fuller. Again, probably just my ears but worth noting. All in all, I do like them and will continue to use them when I need to be aware of my surroundings.
Overall nice but a little annoying to use
I really like these earbuds because they sound so nice and I love that they have good noise cancellation, and the battery life is genuinely insane. I've had these for 3 MONTHS and they've been sitting at 90-100% at all times. I actually never charge these earbuds for more than five minutes at a time and they've been full battery since I got them in February. This is SO AMAZING and I love this about these earbuds so much. They are just so finicky and very, VERY annoying at times. I'll be using both earbuds and one of them will randomly turn off and not reconnect until I put both back in the charging case. They'll disconnect for no reason and won't connect with my phone at all until I plug the case into a charger. Why so specific? I have no idea! But the funniest thing? This only stopped happening so frequently once I uninstalled the app! (Which is an entirely different app made only for this specific product, because the other app that supports the other headphones and earbuds apparently can't support these earbuds?) For whatever reason having the app on your phone makes the earbuds disconnect whenever they feel like it. Genuinely this is the weirdest thing I've experienced with technology. Sometimes I still have connection issues but since I've uninstalled the app it's only once in a while there's an issue compared to every single day. My biggest issue is the fact that you cannot turn of the sensors that detect when the earbuds in your ear, so if you happen to want to put one back it just turns your music off entirely and you have to manually reopen your app to turn it back on. Apparently a different model of the Quiet Comfort earbuds have a setting to toggle it off, these ones just don't. This is SO annoying that I genuinely want to return these headphones at times because of it. You can put tape over the sensors, I guess, but I shouldn't have to put ugly tape on my earbuds so they function the way I want them to. If there was a button to toggle the senors off in the app I'd be happy, but apparently that's too difficult? Please don't get me wrong I use these earbuds everyday because I genuinely do like them and I spent my money on them, but I wish I knew how frustrating they would be before I bought them because I might have looked for other options. TLDR: if you don't enjoy technology that is finicky and annoying to operate or you just get frustrated easily, DO NOT GET THESE! Don't do it, you will not enjoy them. If you can look past minor connection issues and don't mind not having access to the app (it makes the earbuds turn off and disconnect randomly) I would definitely recommend these earbuds! The battery life on mine is crazy and they sound amazing
Fabulous features
Purchased these AirPods as I wanted something soft in my ears rather than the hard ones from Apple that feel extremely uncomfortable after wearing them for any length of time. I'm extremely happy with these Quiet Comfort EarBuds and impressed with their sound cancelling feature. I used them this week for a long distance interstate travel - they were perfect.
Amazing sound while being aware of surroundings!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love these earbuds so much for listening while walking my dog or jogging on my own. The open concept allows me to listen to all of my surroundings which was important to me for safety whether on sidewalks or on nature trails. They are very comfortable and stay much cleaner than in the ear inserts that can get coated in ear wax or push wax deeper into your ear (I say that as an Audiologist that works in hearing health)! Overall, I am thrilled with these headphones!
Awesome earbuds.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These earbuds are just what I needed. Appreciate that they do not have to be inserted into my ear. They are very comfortable on my ear whether I'm working out in the gym, talking on the phone, or just listening to music.
Poor Headphone quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've gone through three sets of these headphones. Bose will honor the warranty, but they send remanufactured replacements, and those seem to last about half as long as the originals. They initially refused to warranty my most recent pair because it was outside the original purchase timeframe. Fortunately, I had just bought a soundbar with a money-back guarantee. I told them that if they weren't going to honor the warranty on my headphones, I would return the soundbar. That changed their mind, and they agreed to replace my headphones. If I could give them zero stars I would. It's unfortunate the sound quality is great. The battery and case quality is trash.
Very practical
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these a few weeks ago and would say that I really like them! As someone whose ears are pretty sensitive and often hurt with in-ear earbuds, these ultra open earbuds are a great alternative and pain-free! I appreciate how the earbud is not directly inside of my ear. I commute everyday to college, so these are amazing to stay aware of my surroundings, but I do think that it gets hard to hear from them in noisy environments like public transportation. Despite that, I do prefer them to noise cancelling earbuds and would definitely recommend them! They also never fall out, and I often sleep with them forgetting that they are on.
Very good, not great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I traded these in for my 2 yr old QC earbuds. While the sound is excellent, especially the immersion feature, I have a couple of issues with them. First, they don't fit quite as well as the QC's, even with the adjustable inserts. Also, they're very sensitive to touch. If I try to adjust them while listening, it will sense this as a tap. I've had to disable that feature. Overall, very good product and I would get them again.
