I got these earbuds a month ago, they sound great and are very easy to use.
When I unboxed them and took the ear buds out of the case, the left ear piece was missing its stability band, and no Medium stability band was present in the box. the kit just has a small and large.
Had to switch out the ear bands and tip to use a size that does not fit as well :( Would have give 5 stars if medium band for just 1 ear tip (pre-installed) was not missing.Spoiled the experience.

The sound quality is great. The fit, once I figured out which piece fit my ears is great. If you're looking for noise cancelling ear buds, these are the buds for you. I'm still getting used to the touch controls, but overall I wouldn't hesitate to buy these again.
To be fair, I can use these a LOT during a day, as I use music as a way to keep my focus during tasks requiring prolonged concentration. Sound quality, as expected from Bose, is top-notch. Ear fit and stability is excellent (I also wear them during exercise). My only recommendation is that, if you wear them as much as I do, switch them into "Aware" mode (Noise cancelling off) unless you really need it on. This seems to significantly prolong battery life between charges.
Good ANC and sound quality but the overall experiences are kinda terrible. It always has this hissing sound as a result of ANC. It is so difficult to switch the connection once it is connected. No multipoint connection. Average battery life. It a pretty average headphone.

Hi there, I’m pleased to hear you’re enjoying the sound and noise-cancellation ability of the earbuds! We reached out to you with a message directly to help with the problem you state. To re-iterate, you shouldn’t be hearing a hissing noise when using the earbuds. There may be a noise floor, but this shouldn’t be noticeable. Please try a product reset as shown at https://bose.life/3EvfWDD, and let us know how things go by reaching back out or contacting us at https://bose.life/38Q1vZs. Thanks, Sam - Customer Support
The fit is not perfect, but that’s what you get from in ear buds. Tried all the suggestions… ANR can’t keep up with loud airplanes- there’s a crackling noise between the two every couple minutes and sometimes the two buds get out of sync (one echos the other). Have to put them both away, turn off and on my phone Bluetooth. I may return and get the Apple AirPods Pro.

I have several Bose products and I've always been impressed with the sound quality. The same pertains to this product. However, for some reason they are very uncomfortable in my ears. I submitted a request for a refund a few weeks ago and have yet to receive the package to send them back.
