Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, Bluetooth Wireless Open Ear Headphones, Black

Bought a few weeks ago on a bit of a whim. Always had a fondness of Bose products, mainly because of their sound, ergonomics & longevity. I feel even though premium, they offer fantastic value for money. I also have a set of QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds II - so these felt excessive, but I use earphones most days & I felt these serve a very different purpose. These don't have the sound quality of the Earbuds (I had one first gen & the second are a huge step up in terms of design & audio performance), but they are a very good functional alternative. How the sound engineers have managed to get them to sound like they do is beyond me. I use these for short train journeys, commuting, days when the office is busy, jobs around the house & dog walks & then my Earbuds for longer train journeys, the gym & when I don't need to hear my ambient surroundings. My top tip is follow the fitting carefully & then the important bit - move downwards so the speaker is as close to the ear canal as possible. They do feel like they'll fall out - it is very odd, but so far they haven't come out at all - including on a quick 6 mile run. Was wanting to hate these but ended up loving them! Unfortunately feel like I need to finish the collection now with the new Ultra Headphones II!:)

Fantastic the way the attach to the outer portion of your ear! Makes it easy to put on and remove! They're so light you don't realize they're attached to your ear at all! The sound is a little weaker from its location on the ear, so i slide them all the way down the ear lobe! I love how I can hear people while they're attached, but, still hear a phone call or music! To me this is all about safety hearing someone coming up behind me while on a walk, or run!

After using this for a nonth, though I find the sound quality excellent for all kinds of music, I find these lack the ability to carry my voice in a call. I have tried all suggestions including the 45 degree one to no avail. Wish Bose releases a new firmware to rectify this otherwise excellent comfortable earphones

I was given these earbuds as a 60th birthday gift. On my first outing using them, one slipped off my ear without my knowledge, never to be seen again. Hence, my review is both positive and negative. I like the buds but they simply aren't secure enough. I then needed to buy another pair at full retail price, as Bose will not replace one. I think this is unacceptable and a bit greedy on the part of the Company.

I've had the product for three days. the left ear bud continues to sound scratchy, it's unpairing randomly and volume function isn't working. I'm hoping this was just a bad one in the bunch so to say. I'll be returning these and swapping for another pair.

I must have weird shaped ears, but these did nothing but fall off, sound quality was terrible. This is the first Bose product I’ve been disappointed in, I definitely wouldn’t recommend them, especially for the price.

They don't fit in the ear at all. It only hangs on the ear. The music cant be heard unless I put them full blast. The sound is terrible. Bose drop the ball on these I paid 199.99 plus tax. It should have been 1.99 instead do better bose these are crap don't buy these. I'm returning them the first chance I get.

I just bought these Bose Ultra Open airbuds on January 23rd and loved them! It is June 1st and one earbud is not working. Bose stated there is no warranty, my product was out of date, but they were happy to exchange them for $40 off the new upgraded price. Shame on them.

Great Fit, But No One Can Hear Me I am highly disappointed with this product. I gave it 1 star because the main reason I bought these earbuds does not work.While they fit perfectly in my ear, they are useless for phone calls. I can hear the other person perfectly clear, but they cannot hear me at all. To have a conversation, I am forced to either shout at the top of my lungs or turn off Bluetooth completely and switch to my phone's speaker.Looking through the other reviews, I see that I am not the only person experiencing this exact issue. This is clearly a widespread defect with the microphone. The manufacturer needs to fix this design flaw immediately. I do not recommend buying these if you need to make phone calls.

These things are the cheapest most expensive crap. You can barely hear anything. They sound like $5 headphones. From the $5 dollar store. Wow. Crazy. Heck naw. Bose ain't like it used to be. At all. I've tried your new headphones and they are not good. Thanks. No.
