[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great open earbuds! I can wear them at work and still hear everything else. Sometimes I forget I have them in because I can't feel that I have them in.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought a refurbished pair about a month ago before traveling abroad. They take a minute to get used to but are very comfortable for long-time wear and allow you to stay attuned to the environment around you. I find that often only one headphone will connect and I have to reset the other one by putting it back in the case and taking it out which is annoying for a product at this price point (even refurbished). I don’t have a great sense yet about how much other people can hear what I’m listening to so I’m always aware of that and, until I can get some feedback/testing in with people I know, I find that a bit of a detractor. I’ve also tried to take calls with them and always have to switch to my phone because of complaints about my audio. So these headphones are great for a very specific purpose—comfortable long-term wear when you don’t want to appear “plugged in” and remain aware of the environment around us. They do not match performance for taking calls, noise cancellation, or peak audio quality and that’s because that’s not how they’re designed. They won’t be my main headphones, but I will use them often for those very specific purposes.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these about a month ago. I enjoy the open ear aspect for work related activities, as well as running errands or just being out and about in public. The microphone on these are okay, most cannot hear me on the phone. They do disconnect randomly but frequently from my phone. I wish the charger case had an option to see how much battery was left.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I brought my Bose earbuds two weeks ago and I love them. They fit well and does not fall off when I’m jogging.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these a couple months ago and LOVE them! They stay in my ears on a run and the sound is amazing. I only use them when im running outside and havent had to charge the charging case yet so the battery life is great. They are pricey but I think they are well worth it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall Rating: 5/5
Sound Quality: 5/5 The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds redefine what we expect from open-ear audio devices. The bass is surprisingly robust for an open design, providing a punch that you feel without muddying the clarity of mid and high frequencies. The immersive audio technology creates a soundstage that's both expansive and intimate, allowing you to enjoy every nuance of your music or podcast. It's like having a private concert, where you don't need to isolate yourself from the world to enjoy stellar sound.
Comfort and Fit: 5/5 I've worn these earbuds for over a month now, from morning workouts to late-night work sessions, and they've never once felt uncomfortable. The design cleverly hugs the ear, providing stability without the need for invasive ear tips. This means no pressure points, no discomfort, even after hours of use. Switching between one ear or both is seamless, extending my listening time throughout the day.
Battery Life: 5/5 Battery life is phenomenal. I can easily get through the primary part of my day on a single charge, and when I need to, switching to mono mode gives me even more flexibility. The case is compact yet sturdy, ensuring I'm always powered up without needing to carry around extra weight.
Functionality: 5/5 The controls are intuitive, with physical buttons that respond well to touch during all types of activities. The earbuds maintain a solid Bluetooth connection, and I've experienced zero dropouts, even in environments with potential interference. The IPX4 rating is a nice touch, ensuring they're up for any workout or unexpected rain.
Conclusion: If you're looking for earbuds that let you stay engaged with your surroundings while delivering top-tier audio, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are unparalleled. They've become an indispensable part of my daily routine, enhancing every aspect of my day with their comfort, sound, and functionality. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep their ears open to the world without sacrificing audio quality.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are absolutely my fav earbuds. I previously had the other “fruit” brand, and I just couldn’t stand how easily there would hang up or disconnect. I don’t Have that issue with these. I love using it to edit on my phone, listen to music and even talk on the phone. No one ever complains of not being able to hear be during a call. I design is so nice and discreet! Loveeee !
