Game changer for out of ear headphones. Music is so clear while being able to hear all surroundings which is important to me because of all six of my kids that need my attention
I love these earbuds but they are not perfect. I have had issues with the right earbud de sync from the left it also loses battery faster than the left one. The charging port on the base broke after only having them a week. Even after all that they are super comfortable and sound great! My only other gripe is they are too expensive.
More cons than pros, but I needed an open ear option and this fits the bill. Call quality is not great, volume is not the best and they are not compatible with iPhone voice notifications. But they are open ear.
I recently purchased the Bose Ultra Earbuds, expecting premium sound and quality given Bose’s reputation, but unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the overall experience.In addition to the other drawbacks, I encountered significant connectivity issues with the Bose Ultra Earbuds. Pairing them with my devices was inconsistent, with frequent dropouts and interruptions during playback. Even after following all troubleshooting steps, the connection would often lag or disconnect entirely, particularly in busy environments with multiple Bluetooth signals.
I am overall happy with these earbuds, but there are a couple of small issues I’ve noticed. In-ear earbuds always hurt my ears, and I don’t want to wear over-ear headphones at work because I don’t want them to impede my hearing of my surroundings. So these are perfect for that! However, a couple of times, one or the other bud has difficulty connecting. And when pausing and playing media, the buds lag at different speeds, so one will start playing and then the other, and it’s jarring.
I love the sound when I’m listening to music or watching a show in my phone. The issue is when I’m taking a call, my callers say the sound is horrible. I’ve even been told I’m echoing or sound like I’m under water.
I got these as a gift back in May 2024. Before these I had AirPods. To compare, I love how these don’t go inside my ears. I was expecting the sound quality to be more being they are Bose. But for me, they fell short. I feel my old AirPods that were only a few months old before getting these, had much better sound quality. I just didn’t like how my AirPods went inside my ears and would always fall out even after purchasing different ear tips. Overall these are good, I just expected better sound.
