I love and hate these! I love that I don't get SWAMP EAR since they have an open design. I love the way they last all day and are completely comfortable. I love that I can listen to my book, radio or music while going about my daily chores or shopping without being disconnected from those around me. I HATE their interface with phone calls, they are terrible with iPhones. I hate the fact that they don't read out texts like my PowerBeats Pro, which I love, except that they are in the ear. I bought two pair (me and my nephew) and we are still deciding whether or not to keep them.

I bought these a few weeks ago, I love them! They are pretty easy to control and they have great sound.
*The only thing I could think of that would make them even better would be to put a small strip of padding on the
Inside of the buds that would wrap around the ear to pad between the ear and the portion of the Earbud that
Grips the ear. It gets a bit sore after while because you don’t want to take them off.

Light weight & good for music!

I have been using the open earbuds for few weeks now. These are really great for a active lifestyle, running, hiking or in the gym. I have used them while shopping and in the malls. I really like it how they stay in place and are light weight so the ears do not feel fatigued. Also while listening to music one can hear around the surroundings, which is helpful. The bass/volume on the music is good but not at the same level as Bose's in ear buds that I also use. I would think this is expected, because the speakers are clipped outside the ears and one would hear the music accordingly ( instead of the ear phones inside the ear ). The only con, for which I am unable to rate this higher is the call quality. Even with cranking up the volume all the way cannot hear what the other person is saying! For anyone using ear buds often for calls it would be a challenge. Maybe I have not found the right setting or maybe there may be some future firmware update to hopefully improve this.

After reading many reviews and thinking about buying these for a couple weeks, I finally made a purchase and I LOVE them! I listen to mostly podcasts when walking and it’s like being in the studio during the podcast. The immersion setting is absolutely amazing, you barely know they are on your ears, and connect quickly. If you’re on the fence, they are 💯 worth it!

I bought these as a Christmas present for myself. They are so comfortable and lightweight. I tend to just wear one at a time because of my job. I was wearing one and wore it all day without realizing it. I got home later that evening and that's when I realized I still had it on. The sound quality is amazing.

I love these headphones. I suffer from migraines so I cannot use the ones that go into your ears because it creates too much pressure in my head. These headphones have great sound and they work well for regular calls and even my work video meetings. I am very happy with this purchase.

Great Earbuds, but Not Ideal for Noisy Environment
4 out of 5 rating
BigRed812 . 9 days ago
These open-ear Bose earbuds fit securely, are comfortable for long wear, and excel in quiet environments like the workplace, allowing seamless multitasking. However, their open design makes them less suitable for loud settings, where audio can be hard to hear. As expected from Bose, sound quality and adaptive features remain top-notch.

I bought this and almost immediately noticed a problem with the left earbud, latency issues and bass issues, and had to return them and I’m in the process of getting a new pair with the warranty.
