## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really very very good
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 8 March 2024*

When I saw these open earphones, I was intrigued by the idea because my worst gripe about my AirPods is that I have to pause the music or remove the earphone to be able to hear people talking to me.Yes, these are expensive - so I tried a cheap brand, just to see if the concept worked. It did, but the sound quality wasn’t good. So I decided to give these a try, and I’m glad I did. Their performance is light years ahead of others.They’re very easy to put on, the flexible earpiece clips around your earlobe gently and they are comfortable for many hours of use - I’ve worn them all day and night without issues, only removing them to charge them via the case, which is nice & quick. They don’t interfere with my glasses at all, I can put them on and remove them without touching the earphones. And, best of all, they don’t fall off or out of your ear, even if you’re headbanging! I’m mobility impaired so don’t go running but I reckon they’ll be great for runners.Because they’re Bose, you have an expectation of great audio quality… and they don’t disappoint, especially in immersion mode, where the sound is amazing and really does seem to be positioned very slightly in front of you. There are 2 immersion mode settings, one where the positioning changes with your head movements, and one static where it doesn’t. Although the earphones don’t go in your ear like traditional earphones, the OpenAudio technology sounds just as good as if they were, without making the music audible to other people.The sound is fantastic for all kinds of audio and music, I have very eclectic tastes and the only type of music they don’t excel for is bass music where very low frequencies are the norm, but I’ve never come across earphones that are great at this, it’s their size. I have larger over ear headphones and a stereo with a big subwoofer for that type of music! They’re as good for listening to ambient music and soundscapes eg Sigur Ros, electronic music like Ladytron and classical music as they are for listening to the latest rock, pop and dance music. They sound great with Spatial Audio/3D audio too. I also find them great for laying in bed listening to audiobooks, they don’t hurt like other earphones can when you turn on your side and they’re pressed against the pillow.How do they get on in a noisy environment? Great. They have an auto volume function that can increase/decrease the volume based on the sounds around you, and maximum volume is loud - you wouldn’t have them turned up to the top for normal usage, I have them set at less than half volume pretty much all the time.You can control volume, playback, sound mode and even your voice assistant using the buttons on each earpiece, a click, double/triple click or long hold allows several controls to be used with just one button. I found the button to actually be better to use than the touch sensitive stalk controls on other earphones mainly because you don’t accidentally activate it so easily if you adjust the position of the earpiece.If you’re intrigued by these earphones but the price concerns you, give them a try… I realised what a good investment they are once I tried them, and use them far more than I have any other earphones ever, because they’re comfortable, don’t fall out of my ear, the sound quality is amazing and they let me hear as much of my environment as I want/need to. They’ve replaced my over ear headphones as my day to day listening buddies.They’re pricey, but they’re worth it.A definite two thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sound,quality 5*
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 1 May 2026*

Most weird and nice sound experience,need to get use to it,i am ex Samsung galaxy buds 3 pro. user and bose a way better in some ways,they do stay always in and i don't feel them at all,sound quality is very good and loud for open ear buds,comfort and build quality 5*simple controls,good phone app,after update,many improvements.At down side call quality is not great and no noise canceling,for me they suit well,used while mtb,run,gym,no fear you will lose it,so Samsung buds will go for sale.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Massively impressive piece of technology that does a great job
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 5 May 2026*

Amazing earbuds which I used for road race running where headphones and in ear earbuds are not allowed for safety reasonsSound quality incredibleA very nice fit over the outer part of the ear (Prima/Auricle)Very easy and quick to connect to my IPhoneCharging case slim a colour coded (same as earbuds) colour choice niceIn some situations the amount of external noise (which you can hear) can overwhelm the sound from the earbuds and to resolve this I simply turned the volume upI was so impressed I bought a second pair for my daughter.massively impressive, high quality, very easy to use and good looking piece of tech that allows me to listen to music and hear my pacing prompts so I don’t go out too fast too earlyHighly recommend
