I thought the earbuds I purchased were innovative and of the highest quality. I only buy Bose and have for a very long time. I have problems with earbuds in my ear canal and love the clip ons. Great Idea as usual.
Excellent sound and stay on well. I love the immersive option for music. I typically listen to audio books or podcasts in the regular stereo mode. Overall comfort is very good as it does not press too hard on the ears. I like to wear these around the house and when I walk outside so I can hear my surrounding some. I have not tried a phone call. I prefer my noise canceling ear buds for calls to block out any outside noise.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds every day during my workouts, especially for my daily 100-floor stairmaster challenge. They stay secure, deliver excellent sound quality, and are comfortable for the entire session. I also appreciate how they keep me aware of my surroundings in the gym. These are the best earbuds I’ve found for an intense, everyday workout routine.
I bought these a couple weeks ago and they are the best buds I have owned. I have bought many buds even the older Bose. These don’t hurt you can’t even feel them in your ears
For the first time, I have all my requirements/needs met in a pair of ear buds. They are comfortable to wear, they do not fall out of my ears, they do not get stuck in my ears obstructing my surrounding necessary noise, they will not adversely affect my hearing, the recharging case is awesome, and I can have conversation with music playing and hear all of the conversation with the music easily channeled out as background noise until the conversation is over. It's like talking on my favorite elevator ride or something!
Also, I am a cyclist. There is nothing like having music on the road and at the same time being able to hear my surroundings (passing cyclists, motor vehicles, emergency vehicles, etc.).
Bose has always led the audio industry in my opinion, and it is products like this that will always keep them ahead of the pack. It is worth the extra money as an investment in my entertainment and my life. Well worth it!!!
On the positive side, the sound quality is great, and I love that I can hear everything going on around me, especially when running outside but also when my wife wants to talk to me. It also works well with both my Windows 10 computer, my phones, and my Apple iPod and iPad. Unlike the Bose Flex, the volume controls on the ear phones actually work. They are a real improvement over all the ear phones I have been using, both from Bose and Apple. On the negative side, the guidance in the BOSE app is not clear and simple, took me forever to even find it. And the directions given in the support emails do not reflect what I see in the app. And managing the sound between different sources is not easy
