You will forget you have them on!

I have been wearing my Ultra Open EarBuds for a few weeks now and I love them. Sound quality is what I expect from Bose products and it did not disappoint. The earbuds are so light in the ears. I forget I have them on at times. They are very attractive and I have received many compliments. I have the white pair. It took a few wears to get used to putting them on since I have long curly hair but well worth it when I got the hang of it.

Unique and light Design -earphones of choice

After little less than 2 weeks of use. I think overall unique design, call quality could use some improvement while talking to others -having them being able to hear you on the other end. Music quality is good would like to see more improvement of options to improve sounds with louder volume and more bass. These headphones are good for any occasion from a casual walk to the store, working out or lounging out at the house.

Good for running and being aware of surroundings

Overall, I’m really impressed with my new Bose earphones. Not only do they look sleek and stylish, but the sound quality is also fantastic. What I love most is their ability to let me listen to my surroundings while enjoying my music, which is perfect for running. They stay securely in place and never feel like they’ll fall out. My only minor gripe is the lack of wireless charging, but it’s a small trade-off for such a great product.

In a League of Their Own

They just are. You may balk at the lack of noise-canceling or the fact that they just “hang” on your ears…
I’m here to tell you— these are amazing. A bit about me. I have tiny ears. I’m a petite woman. Even the smallest AirPods do not fit and give me a massive earache. To add “injury to insult” (yes, that was intentionally backward)… I have piercings. I have inner ear piercings on both sides. This doesn’t exactly set me up for success for earbuds. I had given up on that very idea. I have Bose Quiet Comfort headphones. But they’re not ideal for every situation.
Enter these magical devices that Bose made just for me. They did, right?
I’m a woman. And I'm a mom. These are two roles that typically don’t lend to many noise-cancelling opportunities. If I’m in the other room folding laundry? I WANT to hear if little Jimmy fell off the top bunk for the 3rd time today. What if he broke his arm that time? If I’m jogging the trails? I WANT to hear if a creepy guy is starting to encroach on my space and breathing heavier. Ew.
These are not perfect. I’m not in sales, and I’m not about to sell you on these. There is a learning curve to putting them “on.” Especially if you have piercings, like I do. On my tragus side, there is no issue. I’m still working with my daith— the jury is out. Positioning is tricky to get comfortable on that side. From what I can tell, you cannot wear these with dangly lobe earrings or anything of that nature. But—the beautiful part is that the earbud is not exactly static. These have a ton of flexibility to them. When you get it right, it legitimately feels like you have nothing on your ear. Almost weightless.
Do you have a hearing aid? This is your earbud. I’m really happy you finally have a quality product accessible to you.
They hold a charge for a long time— I haven’t even been able to drain them to tell you just how long. While on the subject of charging, I will tell you that I am both surprised and disappointed that the charger is not wireless. Especially when my husband’s older Bose earbuds are. Dunno what happened there. It’s a small drawback, and I got over it…
The sound quality is what you would expect from Bose…it’s excellent. The immersion mode is cool and something I enjoyed more than I thought I would. The app is great (I already had it from my Comfort Headphones, and it picked up the Ultra Open Earbuds with no problem). Phone calls? Answering calls is not intuitive to me, but that’s a non-Apple curve I’m willing to learn. Zoom calls? All good. No issues thus far.
That’s it for now! If I could rate it a 4.5, I would. Since there's no in-between I rounded up because I love them. See pictures for fit with my jewelry to give you an idea of what it might look like with yours. Cheers!

These headphones are like nothing I’ve tried before. They don’t go into your ear canal nor do they cover your ears. I was hesitant to use earbuds, I wear hearing aids, but when I saw what kind of earbuds these were I was excited to try them out. They work wonderfully with my hearing aids. The charging case charges the earbuds quickly but it would have been nice if the case had wireless charging. They connect wonderfully most of the time to my phone and switch but have many issues connecting to my tv. Overall I am happy with these earbuds

Thanks for your review of the Ultra Open Earbuds! I'm happy that they're working seamlessly for you, and that they charge up nice and quickly.
While the earbuds are primarily designed for connection to mobile devices, it may be possible to connect them to your TV too. This will depend on your TV's Bluetooth specifications. Feel free to contact your local Bose support team, so we can help you look into this: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US

The Headphone Design I Didn't Know I Needed
on February 12, 2024
Posted by: MeghanB
Gender:Female
Length of ownership:1 month
I've had these headphones for about 2wks now and while at first I really wasn't sure about them, I am now in love with them. The design is so innovative and something I didn't know I had been looking for for a long time. As a graduate student and someone who likes to workout I wear my headphones a lot and I wear them in a variety of settings including studying, walking to class and workouts. I have always had a hard time with headphones fitting in my ears due to the cartilage of each of my ears being two different shapes. One would fit perfect and the other would fall out constantly. These headphones fit perfect. Since they clip around the outside of your ear each headphone can bend how I need. I can go an entire workout and not adjust them once. I also like the design because with my ear piercings I can fit the headphones around them and they don't push the back of my earrings into my head.
Depending on what you're using them for the only con is that they are not noise cancelling. I personally don't mind a little background noise most of the time and I like that I can be more aware of my surroundings when going on walks, but it all depends on your personal preference. Even without the noise canceling the sound is still the high quality Bose sound that got me hooked on their products in the first place.

Finally an earbud for exercising!

Length of ownership:1 week
I have been using the open earbuds for about a week and they are exactly what I've been looking for for many years! I can wear the earbuds while wearing a headband and winter hat and they don't jam into my ears. The way they are designed allows me to hear traffic and other background noise without compromising the sound of my music, podcast, etc. I've found that I have to turn the volume up higher than I normally would because of the background noise, but the sound quality is just as clear with high volume as low volume. Most importantly, I feel that my safety is not compromised as I can hear what's happening in my surroundings while exercising outside.

As an avid music enthusiast and podcast lover, I recently had the pleasure of trying out Bose, Ultra Open Earbuds and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I put them on, I was transported into a world of rich, deep tones and crystal-clear audio.
One of the most remarkable aspects of Ultra Open Earbuds is its ability to make you forget you’re even wearing earbuds. The sound quality is so immersive that it feels like you’re right there in the room with the podcast hosts or front row at your favorite band’s concert. Whether I was listening to my favorite playlist or catching up on the latest episode of my go-to podcast, every sound felt crisp, detailed, and enveloping.
Moreover, the comfort of wearing Ultra Open Earbuds will grow on you. At first you will question the design but the unique fit makes it easy to wear them for extended periods without any discomfort. Whether I was lounging at home or on the go biking, they stayed in place and provided uninterrupted audio opportunities. Plus being able to hear your surroundings while being active makes the Ultra Open Earbuds a safer choice over noise canceling devices.
In conclusion, Bose, Ultra Open Earbuds delivers an audio experience that goes beyond just listening—it immerses you in the sound, making every moment feel like a personal concert or private podcast session. If you’re in the market for earbuds that prioritize both quality and comfort, look no further than Bose Ultra Open Earbuds. Highly recommended for music lovers and exercise enthusiasts alike.
