submitted by Donna - 2 years ago
A: Hi Donna, thanks for reaching out about Bose Ultra Open-Ear True Wireless Bluetooth Open Earbuds
The earbud sits in the ear cavity and loops around the cartilege of your ear. This design is less than ideal for utilization alongside hearing aids.

A: The Ultra Open Earbuds are uniquely designed to attach to a part of the ear that doesn't interfere with most glasses, hats or piercings. Therefore, you're welcome to give it a try. If your hearing aids do touch the product, that’s no problem as long as the earbuds remain comfortable and secure.

Great purchase
I love it and am so glad I made this purchase. The surround sound is just perfect and great for the noise control. It feels a little awkward on my ear though, I'm continuously checking to see if it's fallen off; but it's quite snug

poor design; had to return them
I had to return them because the microphone is covered by the ear - poor design. I tried moving them every possible way to make them work better. Also, they are very easily knocked off your ear. It would be very easy to lose one.
1 reply from Customer Support team - 16 days ago
Thank you for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear that the microphone performance and fit did not meet your expectations. The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds use two microphones in each earbud, and call quality can be affected if the microphones are obstructed or if the earbuds are not positioned correctly. We understand you've already tried adjusting them, and we appreciate you taking the time to do so. We also value your comments regarding the fit and security of the earbuds.

Finally the one pairs better than Bose 21
I love using the old Bose QC21, the lined earphones. I bought several pairs and still keeping one as the spare. Bose Ultra Open finally beats it. The new pairs have superior sound stage and really comfortable to wear. I had so many pairs of headphones, earphones, this one is my favorite. I even wear them on the plane.

Warranty issues from day 1 and connectivity issues
From day one, this showed up as having an expired warranty from Bose. I called Bose to fix it and the said it was something they couldn’t do on their end. Additionally, like others have reported, my pair also had issues connecting to my iPhone, even with the Bose app. It would repeatedly connect and then lose its connection. I do not have that issues with other wireless earbuds…. Frustrating, considering the price, so these were returned.

Great earbuds. Light on the ears, solid sound. You can still hear your environment. They’re not supposed to go into your ears like AirPods. Not sure why some reviews knock these down because they don’t do the things they’re not designed (nor advertised) to do.

So surprised that
Never thought I would like or even have an interest in open ear earbuds, I was all about noise, cancellation. However, I am so incredibly pleased with my open ultra earbuds that I’m sorry I did not get some sooner. Comfort, clarity, and versatility. And of course, Bose quality that is unmatched.

sort of ok not really
They work ok. Sound is not full and my ears are normal size. If i really press and direct the sound its great but just cuffed on the ear it is not so robust. Cuff feels great but the sound just doesn’t get to the ear they way i thought it would. It does what they say and you can hear stuff around you while listening to music when you are walking or doing light stuff but i went biking and did a faster pace for 20 miles and had to have the volume all the way up and it was pretty quiet actually. I am probably going to return because it just doesn’t seem to be worth the hype. I bought the 3 year warranty too so Not cheap. Not my favorite BOSE product and I have many.

Great Product For Many... Just Not Me
The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds deliver exactly the sound quality you would expect from Bose, with deep lows and crisp, clear upper notes. They are also surprisingly comfortable, offering excellent weight distribution and just the right amount of pressure to remain secure without feeling restrictive. Unfortunately, while many customers may find them comfortable enough for all-day use, they may not be a good fit for people with larger ears. There simply is not enough material between the speaker and the portion that wraps around the back of the ear. As a result, the speaker may not sit deeply enough in the ear to produce the best possible sound, which noticeably affects volume and overall audio quality. The wireless charging case works great, but I wish wireless charging were included with the standard case rather than requiring a separate purchase. Overall, these are thoughtfully designed earbuds with impressive sound and comfort, but the fit did not work well for my ears. I will be sticking with the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, which provide a much richer sound and a better overall fit for me.
