I have purchased about 7 of the Ultra Open Earbuds. I am a fan. As a runner and hiker, I like the "open" concept for safety reasons. I have never liked things sticking out of my ears, like the AirPods. The design is a plus, plus. The earbuds have never fallen out while I am running, riding my bike or working out. I do wish 2 things: 1-that you do not have to use both ear buds at the same time. If you use only 1, you cannot close the case; 2 - the sound is better if you can somehow "tighten" the fit.

They sound great. I really want to love them. But I am struggling with the fit. They don't seem to want to stay in my ears. Particularly the left side. They were bigger than I expected them to be but that wouldnt bother me if I could find the right fit.

I am thoroughly impressed with these earbuds and have purchased my second pair to keep at a separate location for convenient use when my primary pair is unavailable. I have also gifted a pair to my wife for Christmas. One of the standout features is the excellent transparency mode, which allows me to enjoy music while remaining fully aware of my surroundings. Highly recommended.

These contain all the quality and depth of sound I:be come to expect from Bose. I've tried multiple earbuds (wired and wireless and I continually had problems with keeping them in place if I as much as took a deep breath. These ultra earbuds stay in place with any activity I have taken on in the 2 months I've had them. I have had a couple of occasions where I had turned off the my music on my phone and didn't realize the earbuds were still on until someone asked me what I was listening to. They're so light and intrusive that I still had them on. As always, great job Bose!!

I never would have spent this much on earbuds, but the sale price and the open style was something I was looking for. The sound quality is excellent, and they are very comfortable. My main concern is that the silicone piece, that wraps around your ear, is going to break after repetitive use. If this was to happen, and I have seen it happen before on other products of the same material, how do you replace it? My husband has the full headphones, and he has had to replace the earpieces twice due to the material cracking and disintegrating. I'm not even sure if you could purchase a replacement piece and for the cost of this, I in no way consider them disposable. They also seem to disconnect from my phone, and I keep having to delete them and then pair them again. I have rebooted by phone. Also, when I use them and then use them again later, all the settings have returned to the original factory settings. This is not after pairing them again. I like them very much, I just don't want to buy another pair a year or two down the road.

I've had these for a few weeks and the connectivity is so bad. Charging case dead but buds have life? Won't connect. Taken out of ears for a bit and put back in? Won't connect unless put back in the case first. Trying to connect real quick before answering a call? Nope. Trying to connect while already on a call? Also no, have to hang up, connect and then call back. Sound quality is good enough and noise cancelling is good enough but the function of day to day use is very poor.

I really love the fit of the Bose quite comfort earbuds. Other brands hurt my ears, these do not. Amazing noise cancelling. The only downside is that you have to get used to how sensitive they are to touch. Any slight touch will command them, like turning on and off.

I didn’t think OPEN EARBUDS would have such wonderful sound; but owning 5 BOSE products;one o which is the Radio/Cassette/CD player which as you can guess’ we’ve had for MANY YEARS and still use regularly. YES these are WONDERFUL with sound as good as any other earbuds; with the extra of being safer outdoors keeping you also aware of what’s golng on around you.

These are the earbuds I’ve been waiting for! I hate ill-fitting earbuds and have plenty in a drawer somewhere. Sound is excellent and I don’t have to worry able them falling out of my ear. I enjoy them so much that I bought a pair as a gift and another for my travel bag.

I've had Bose earbuds for several yrs and very happy but needed replacement. This new Bose earbuds were good if I could connect. Trying to connect to my phone was very very frustrating and couldn't tolerate the technical issues and finally had to return. Very disappointed with Bose!!
