So far these are the best I've used. These work perfectly of me. Better than in ear buds that cause me comfort issues. Better then other open ear clip on buds as well. Price may be a point of contention but...you get what you pay for.
Will they sound good on the plane... that is the ?

I bought these just about a month ago and I've been really happy with them so far. I mainly use them to listen to podcasts in my office while I work. I am going on a trip in a couple of weeks and am looking forward to seeing how they work on the loud airplane. I have other over the ear headphones and they haven't done so well on the plane but these have excellent sound so I'm feeling like they may work out.
Fun new design, very comfortable, stays on during workouts, sound quality is great however they’re not as loud as quiet comfort due to them being outside the ear canal. Plenty loud enough to hear fine while working out and it’s nice to be able to have a conversation etc while listening to music. Battery lasts significantly longer than previous models.
I have them for about 2 weeks now I think quality of the music is fantastic but there is a very serious issue when you use them as phone calls there is very little option to make a volume up so it's really hard to hear someone talking especially when you in a crowded era. People told me that losing my connection looks like not enough microphones to pick up the voice I think quality is fantastic when you listening to the music doesn't matter but talking on the phone creates a problem. Seems to me like they losing connection easily I hope Bose will send some updates before I will decide to return them to improve volume talking

Thanks for your review. We are glad to hear you love the quality of the Bose Ultra Open earbuds. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are a totally new kind of audio wearable device: premium sound built into a cuff-shaped earbud that doesn’t cover your ear. Proprietary Bose Open Audio technology allows the earbuds to play rich, immersive audio privately even though the speakers on the earbuds. Proper fit is important for product comfort and performance.
