I have had the worst experience with these headphones the connection sucks, this is my 4th pair and still having issues with people hearing me, they either breaking up during conversations or I sound muffled like I'm far away talking making it difficult for them to understand me. I love the style but the connection is horrible for phone calls I will not be looking to invest in another pair of bose

Hi Ritaboo! We're really glad to hear you love the style of our product thank you for sharing that! We're sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced, and we'd love the chance to make it right. To help out, we've put together a couple of troubleshooting guides that will resolve the concerns:
I expected them to be heard very well. In fact, they have a good sound, but when it came to making a call, I didn't hear the other person very well. It's hard for me to hear.
The Bose headphones I just returned couldn't compare to the open ear earbuds. Just a little awkward to clasp onto ear. The immersive sound is phenomenal!
I have a teenager, and while this should be self-explanatory, let me explain. She hasn’t taken off her headphones for more than a few minutes in over four years. I was so frustrated at constantly having to text her whenever she was needed, and the in-ear headphones caused a lot of stubborn earwax build-up that we had to deal with.
So I got her the Bose Open Ear headphones—and just like before, they haven’t come off. But this time, at least she can hear her surroundings. She’s still able to enjoy her music and podcasts, but now she can respond when someone calls her, hear me without shouting, and even stay aware of what’s happening around her.
As a parent, that’s a huge relief. No more isolation, no more ear problems—just a happy teenager who still gets her constant soundtrack, and a parent who doesn’t feel ignored.
Because of this, I got a second pair for myself. I had the previous in ear Bose and it never quite fit right. These solve that issue for me and I am overall extremely satisfied.
I had already purchased the Quiet Comfort earbuds and loved them. Saw the open version and thought I'd try them. They are my new favorite earbuds!! Love your products!!!
Constantly disconnect randomly , battery dies fast. For 300 it s bad quality
