    Good Product

    Price that I purchased the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds was great. After using them for a few weeks, the reception on the phone is not as loud as I thought and people on the other end of the call say it sounds like I am in a box talking. Speaker sound is very good.

At a glance

The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are premium open-ear true wireless earbuds made for people who want music without blocking the world around them. They suit commuting, walking, and all-day wear thanks to their lightweight cuff-like fit, immersive audio, and easy multipoint pairing. Their main limitation is noise isolation, which is naturally lower than sealed in-ear earbuds in loud environments.

What it’s great for

  • Commuting
  • Walking
  • All-day listening
  • Casual workouts
  • Multitasking
  • Outdoor use

Where it works best

  • City streets
  • Public transport
  • Office
  • Home
  • Campus
  • Outdoor walks

Who it’s for

  • Daily commuter
  • Office worker
  • Outdoor walker
  • Fitness casual
  • Safety-conscious listener
  • Premium audio buyer

Things to consider

Because of the open-ear design, they do not block outside noise like sealed earbuds, so they are less ideal for very noisy flights, gyms, or trains.

Commuter suitability score

8/10 - strong for commuters who want awareness of traffic and announcements, but less effective for blocking loud transport noise.

Workout fit

Good for walking, light runs, and casual training; IPX4 rating helps with sweat and light splashes.

Noise isolation effectiveness

3/10 - open-ear design prioritises awareness over passive noise blocking.

All-day comfort rating

9/10 - cuff-like open-ear design is built for extended wear without the sealed feel of in-ear tips.

Multi-device switching ease

9/10 - Bluetooth multipoint makes it easy to stay connected to two devices simultaneously.

Key benefits

  • Open-ear design: lets you hear your surroundings while listening, which suits commuting and everyday awareness.
  • Cuff-like fit: sits differently from traditional in-ear buds for comfortable wear across long listening sessions.
  • Immersive Audio: creates a more spacious, engaging sound for music, podcasts, and video.
  • Private sound delivery: helps keep audio focused on the listener while maintaining an open-ear feel.
  • Battery life: up to 7 hours of play time supports most workdays, commutes, and daily routines.
  • Bluetooth multipoint: connects to two devices at once for easier switching between phone and laptop.
  • Button controls: provides simple, reliable playback control without relying only on touch input.
  • IPX4 water resistance: handles sweat and light splashes for everyday wear and casual exercise.

Q: Do these Bose earbuds block train and plane noise?

A: No. Bose Ultra Open Earbuds use an open-ear design and do not have noise cancelling, so outside sound stays more audible. They suit listeners who want awareness of announcements or traffic, not strong isolation on loud trips.

Q: Do they sit inside your ear canal like regular earbuds?

A: No. Bose Ultra Open Earbuds use a cuff-like open-ear fit rather than a sealed tip that sits deep in the ear canal. That design feels less closed off, but it also lets in more surrounding noise than sealed earbuds.

Q: Can Bose Ultra Open Earbuds connect to a phone and laptop?

A: Yes. Bose Ultra Open Earbuds support Bluetooth multipoint, so they can stay connected to two devices at once, such as a phone and laptop. That makes switching easier during work, but a third device would need to be paired separately.

Q: Are they good for work calls as well as music?

A: Yes. Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have built-in microphones for hands-free calls as well as music and podcasts. They suit everyday calling, but the open-ear design does not shield your ears from surrounding noise in busy places.

Q: Will the open-ear fit stay secure for light exercise?

A: Yes. Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have a secure enough fit for walking, light runs and casual training, and the IPX4 rating covers sweat and light splashes. They are not positioned as a dedicated sports model for heavier-impact training.

Q: How quickly do the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds recharge?

A: Bose Ultra Open Earbuds take 1 hour to recharge. That is practical for a quick top-up between commutes or work sessions, but a full day away from the case may still need charging depending on how long you listen.
