First Impressions: Bose Ultra Open Earbuds

 

An introduction to Bose's fashionable wearable earbuds

Bose’s take on the new wearable audio category looks promising, with its comfortable design and premium features in Immersive Audio technology and aptX Adaptive audio support. They come with a premium price though, making them one of the more expensive...

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds review: open relationship

 

Bose's Ultra Open Earbuds don't go into your ears and always allow ambient sound in – but are they good full-time earbuds?

So comfortable you'll forget you're wearing them ; Good enough sound (when in suitable isolation) ; Great control app with EQ and Immersive Audio

Sound inevitably lacks punch of true in/on/over-ears ; Can't always hear surroundings clearly ; Battery life isn't great

There's no doubt that the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are the best in their category (that being earbuds that don't actually go into your ears and always let environmental sound pass through). However, despite comfort that's so beautifully judged that...

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 review: fantastic noise cancellation and sound

 

The master of ANC is back on top

Smaller, more comfortable design ; Best-in-class noise cancellation ; Beautiful sound

Call quality could be better ; No support for high-def wireless codecs ; No wireless charging

The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 have put the master of noise-cancellation tech back on top, taking the competition right to Sony. Not only has Bose managed to implement its redesign well, the company has improved on the noise cancellation of its...

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review: among the best true wireless you can buy

 

A little on the bulbous side but the sound and slick controls more than make up for it

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review

 

Great sound, powerful noise cancellation – but can Bose's new true wireless earphones tip Sony off its perch?

Best-in-class ANC Rich, clear sound Secure, comfortable fit Wireless charging

Lacks on-board volume control Bulky charging case Case could offer more charge

It’s Bose’s second attempt at a set of true wireless headphones, and the QuietComfort Earbuds are leaps and bounds better than the older SoundSport Free. Not only is the design a lot better, the noise cancellation is exemplary. Sound quality is also...

Bose's new Open Ultra earbuds are the fashion and function success I can't stop wearing

 

They may not be part of Bose's QuietComfort lineup, but my ears don't want any other buds. Think transparency mode -- but better.

Look more like a fashion accessory ; Comfortable ; Design makes for a more aware listening experience ; Case is pocketable

Battery life could be longer ; Pricey ; Sound could be slightly refined

Bose's new Open Ultra earbuds feature a unique open ear-cuff design without sacrificing Bose's premium sound features like Immersive Audio and top-tier clarity. They wear comfortably, come in a sleek charging case, and stay stable on the ear even when...

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review: The in-ear noise-cancelling king

 

Bose's top-end in-ears offer super sound and great noise-cancelling (ANC) technology. This could be the best in-ear option on the market right now.

Great noise-cancelling ; Fantastic sound quality ; Fit is secure and comfortable for long periods ; Wireless charging case an added bonus

Design is quite chunky ; Case could offer more charge

These 'buds keep ambient noise at bay, while the comfort is supreme for a pair of in-ears. Add that to sound that'll make all your favourite songs sound amazing, and it's hard to think of a more complete pair of true wireless in-ears in terms pure...

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds review: hooked on you

 

Clear sound meets comfort; the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds do open fit better than just about any rival I've tried

As subtle as open fit earphones get ; Expansive, impactful sound ; Very comfortable fit

Very expensive ; Battery life could be better ; Narrower appeal than regular earphones

The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds fly straight to the top of the emerging ‘open fit’ class, with subtle styling and great sound. Just try not to wince at the price.

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review

 

The sound of silence

Noise-cancelling as good as you’d expect from Bose ; 11 levels of ANC in the app ; Good seal ; Bassy but balanced listen

Touch controls initially confusing, and no volume slider ; Case is enormous

The new champ of ANC wireless earbuds
