My favorite open earbuds!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these open earbuds! I purchased the light blue in early 2025. At first I had to adjust to hearing my music and having the ability to hold a discussion at the same time. But once I realized how often I was wearing them and carrying them with me everywhere. I decided to purchase one for my pocketbook, bedside, and livingroom. So yes, I have 3 open earbuds, quiet comfort earbuds, and the quiet comfort headphones. I guess you would say I'm a little overboard. Bose products are my #1 go to for speakers and headphones. The sandstone color is beautiful just like violet.

Great sound except on phone

Great sound for podcast, books and music. However sound quality for phone calls is poor on the listener end and have to take off to converse. My poly headset works great on the phone why not Bose?

Good Sound

I bought these open earbuds especially for work. We are not allowed to wear anything in the ear canal at work so these are perfect. The sound is just as clear as my in ear earbuds. The only downfall is receiving phone calls. It’s too difficult to hear the caller and they can’t hear me well either. These are NOT for receiving or making phone calls. But for listening to music or radio at work, these are perfect!

I was skeptical about the quality of the sound of these open earbuds. But BOSE truly invented a game changer here. These open earbuds are amazing! Sound quality is phenomenal for the intent of its design.
These are great when I need to be aware of the noise surrounding me. I love them.

Horrible! Stopped connecting after 2 months. I expect a better product from Bose.

Hi Voula, thank you for bringing this to our attention. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have a Bluetooth range of up to 30 feet (9m). Disconnections may occur if you move too far from your device, experience interference (such as Wi‑Fi routers or microwaves), or have outdated firmware. To improve stability, keep devices close, update software, disable battery saver mode, and restart both devices.

This was my second time purchasing these, which essentially summarizes my review. I am a big fan of open ear designs, beginning with Bose's first generation several years ago. If you wear glasses in particular just buy these as there are no conflicts as with ear hooks. You quickly learn how to put them on, it becomes second nature, and it is easy to forget they are on due to light weight and comfortable materials.
Physical buttons are a big advantage, and each has a custom programmable setting.
Volume is very good for most situations, but I do wish there was a way to boost in unusually noisy environments. Audiobooks on an airplane can be heard, but just barely. They are not designed to be noise cancelling obviously, I have over the ear high-end headphones for that. The case design is great, and it gives a sense of power remaining, but I wish it or the app showed the exact percentage of charge. I use mine every day and charge the case once a week or two only. I have never run out of power in the buds. No complaints at all.
Sound quality excellent, microphone good in most situations.
My first set survived several drops with only scuffs on the case, no loss of function. Bose.com purchase experience was excellent as it has been in the past.

These earbuds are a huge upgrade from my previous non-Bose pair, and I’m very happy with this product.
