The sound is excellent I wish the part that goes in the ear was a little longer. But I love them.

Simply the best

I've been using the Ultra Open Earbuds for about 5 months now. These are game changers. All my previous earbuds are now obsolete and unused.
The sound quality is amazing, even at super low volumes in a quiet place the music is full, rich and detailed.
Somehow things sound as if they're happening in your surroundings rather than in your ears. But at the same time, familiar music will sound just like you remember it, only better and with with more detail.
I also love how clean the buds remain, even after hours of continual use, just wipe with a dry tissue and they're fine.
The battery life is excellent and if they do get low on power they charge very quickly in the case.
The fit is both very secure and very comfortable, which is an engineering acheivement.
These are also great for your personal safety and the safety of your ears, since you can hear what's going on around you and if you're wearing them properly, I don't think they could go loud enough to damage your hearing.
The only people these wouldn't be good for are those who like to listen to their music at extremely loud volumes or those who need noise isolation.
Yes these are expensive but I use them for hours every day so for me they are well worth the cost.
The fit does take some getting used to if you're accustomed to putting buds in your ear canal. These just clip on the outer portion of your ear like jewlery.
Also be aware that when you first put them on - they will sound louder if you push them down towards your ear canal. But don't be misled by that - down at your ear canal is not where they're meant to be. Accept the lower volume from where they want to sit naturally and simply turn up the volume if you need to. You'll soon realize how great they sound from higher up where they're designed to be.

I’m not a fan of them at all, I own just about all Bose head sets and others products of Bose, I’m a long time customer. These ear plug have excellent sound however, it’s difficult to wear in my left ear, it’s discomforting in my left ear, it’s very discomforting, I gave them to my daughter who’s paying me installments! lol!

Less than a month old and I am not very impressed with the sound quality. It is not loud enough even if the volume is turned up. I am a car audio enthusiast and I know what good sound is. I wish they could make a software update to allow us to crank up the volume a bit more, as we can always turn it down when its too loud. Also it skips a beat once in a while which is very annoying.

Decent open earbuds, some quirks to account for

Great product, a little soft on the sound but expected because it is an open earbud. I think my Quite Comfort 2 sounds better, but hey, this works because it does not fall off my ears when moving around or exercising.
Minor thing to point out, for those with large ear lobs, the hook is not long enough to completely grasp it. It's still secured, but not as comfortable.

Does have some quirk on connecting to my phone sometimes - sometimes it doesn't connect, sometimes it loses connection. I turned off the voice prompt to see if it helps with that. Let's see. Turning off voice prompt does help with Quiet Comfort 2 earbuds for me. Wish Bose has fixed that already.

Lifelike sound that blends w/ the world around you

Incredible sound. I walk around downtown with them in immersive mode, and it seems like the entire city street is filled with music, even though it's just a few grams of gear hanging off each ear lobe. Sound quality is exceptional. They last all morning, at least 6 hours for me. I'd love for them to last longer, but with present battery technology, I'm sure that would double or more their weight. As is, you can completely forget that you are wearing them.
