![[UPDATED] Bose Ultra Open 6 Months Later! Are They Worth Getting Now?](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/oYyVyV41pqo/mqdefault.jpg)
I suffer with Tinnitus, I bought the Bose as I can then have music, podcasts, books, into my ears without the pain of wearing AirPods all day! They are so comfortable and light, I hardly know they’re there. Over the ear are not an option as I wear glasses and find them a nuisance. I know they’re eye watering expensive, but for me worth every penny!
I have Meniers disease. I have severe tinnitus and loss of hearing in one ear and have to wear an over the-ear hearing aid (signia).
I miss listening to music on earphones/headphones.
The Bose open ear buds are light and comfortable, but the phone call quality is very poor. Also not helping with the hearing aid.
The search for a good headphone which will work with the hearing aid continues. 😢
Will bone conducting headphones help? Any tips?
Not having an over the ear connection made me purchase and now I’m in love with it. Best all day general purchase audio device. Love them
how do you like them stille? I work from home and been looking for something that wont irrtate my ear as much
@@NickleForYourThoughtsthey're good but nice quality sucks for phone calls. Other than price, that's their biggest drawback.
I bought mine a couple days ago. They aren’t meant for loud environments. They are meant for areas where you want to listen to music but hear the environment around you. I love them. I got to the stores or for walks and I can hear good sound quality of music but hear people around me. I have the Bose Ultra Quiet Comfort 2 and I wear them solely for the gym because I want to be immersed in my own world when I’m lifting and working out.
Tried them in store but disappointed me a lot. 1st on the quality and volume of the buds, 2nd on the price they demand ! Which is too much. I bought a 60$ and I saved allot of money as well
OK I'm going to challenge what you're saying because I really like them and "hears" why. They are super lightweight, compact and sound great. As far as the price if I'm able to enjoy them without what I'm about to describe, they're worth it to me. I own the Quiet Comfort II and while they sound awesome they irritate my ears after a short time wearing them. My ears end up itching and then they start weeping. This wetness eventually dries and I get crusty flaking. I know sounds weird but as I've read others have experienced the same issues with in ear earbuds as allergic reaction to the silicon ear piece. If I want the noise cancelling feature I will wear my over the ears headphones.
I too have recently started with the same ear problem. Very unpleasant! It only takes an hour of using my AirPods Pro for it to start, rendering them impossible for me to continue with them. So I will purchase these open earbuds in hope they are a permanent solution to the problem…
Hey, I must thank you for your comment, this is something I wasn't aware about, I didn't purchase earbuds still, and was about to make a purchase next week, taking care of health is most important, and your comment made me appreciate the genuine response of your experience, not a lot is mentioned about these issues by the reviewers they only go to the extent of the product details upon product usage but not the end user experience upon regular usage especially when it is related to health, that's why cheap experiences get peddled to the regular consumers, even while they throw their hard earned money to purchase a quality experience that they think will be offered to them in such price ranges.
I bought them day one, and I like them. Doesn’t get as loud as my Shokz OpenFits, but bass is cleaner. But I mainly bought it because it’s so different
do you prefere the Shokz or the Bose?
I bought mine a couple days ago. They aren’t meant for loud environments or the best sounding OPEN earbuds. They are meant for areas where you want to listen to music but hear the environment around you. I love them. I use them when I go to the store, walks, bike rides and I can hear good sound quality of music but hear people around me. I have the Bose Ultra Quiet Comfort 2 and I wear them solely for the gym because I want to be immersed in my own world when I’m lifting and working out.
Have they fixed the microphones? I bought them when they came out and returned next day. No one could hear me on calls and they picked up a bunch of road noise.
@@jewmajorjNo. Microphone still sucks and it's likely a hardware issue. Sad
Flossy says these are his go to for open ear buds. He is the de facto reviewer as far as I am concerned. I bought these, he didn’t steer me wrong. Spelled out what to and not to expect. These things are both a game changer for comfort and sound is more than acceptable for a product that is not closed earbuds. If not, I will coin a phrase from people who really like them. “You are using them wrong”, lol. The price? Too high then don’t buy them or wait for a price drop. BTW, I will not tell you what my audiophile headphones cost that are dope.
That's quite the condescending talk from someone who can't think for themselves. You sound like you are on a leash. Your input is useless. Allow me to assist you in your intellectual struggle.
You start off sounding like a Flossy NPC. Dude is another human being who can't take criticism, suppresses comments, and let his little fanboys try to one-up on anyone that criticizes him. Yet...you think the world of him like he threw you a Frisbee to catch with your teeth. His opinion is that - an opinion, not a fact, let alone the law of the land.
Let's talk about these earbuds.
They are overpriced for what you get. Bose is just another renowned entity, arrogantly pushing their name and giving you a half-assed and mediocre product that doesn't even include an advertised feature...for $300...and it's slave-minded consumers like you that give them the green light to screw you. You sound like another clueless and simpleminded consumer defending a multi-million/billion/etc. corporation that doesn't even acknowledge your existence. As mentioned in the video, and if you elevated your poor standards and did research, there are plenty of cheaper options that *give you more for less* compared to Bose. The least they could've included was wireless charging, since this is supposed to be a *wireless* headset, and multi-point connectivity for such a premium price.
Alas, all value is lost on a starry-eyed NPC spouting condescending hot air for his favorite content creator and corporation. I can't imagine the delusion you all suffer from if you think you ever contribute anything of value. You're probably the type that thinks that think someone has to throw all of their money at something "awesome" to look cool because this is validation for people like you.
I think you're correct here. I wouldn't be looking to bose for open earbuds. Most people wouldn't do it either when there's a lot of open earbuds that're like half the price and also less than a quarter of it. They're just trying to see what they can get away with.
IMO the only real competitor with a similar wearing style and audio quality (AFA I heard the are at least good) are the Huawei Freeclip, which are 150 Euro cheaper but don't feature aptX Adaptive. I am not sure if aptX Adaptive is valuable enough for most people, but for me it allows me to use these for mobile gaming and also for video watching on PC (Windows in contrast to Android or iOS doesn't have a system wide delay-audo-to-keep-in-sync-with-Windows feature).
Comparison to Sony Linkbuds: I had those and loved them, but they sound WAY worse than the Bose IMO, have like half the battery life, a case with a low battery life (that is horribly slippy to boot), have no higher end codec and stay in ear WAY WAY less secure. IMO paying more to get the Bose instead is well worth it, regardless of codec.
BOSE is been always a good quality, I own tons of BOSE products and never disappointed. it's made for people who can afford it
Continue to do these follow-up videos on products that need it... Great job
I would like to see a comparison with the Huawei Freeclips
Dude I didn't know you had a second channel,.this is amazing!!!
Thanks man!
Bose ultra does ONE thing different…. They will fit almost anyone! And if you wear glasses…. This is a winner. Cost aside they’re the truth!
these look cool as hell while the others look like hearing aids
Hey Keith! That was an eye-opener, Great review, Thank you very much!
I own and use the Shokz OpenFit and have ordered the TOZO Open buds.
Bose can find others to buy their offering. Glad you made this video.
I have to agree. I have the Bose Quietcomfort Ultras and while pricey they replaced some well used over ear headphones. I've looked at the Bose Opens because I do like the open hearing design. Watching helpful videos like yours, I think i'll stick to the Shokz OpenFit at half the price.
Smart move
Bought them and love them. Am worried about the flex strap durability
I have the ultra and lov them. It’s not for everyone/ get over it. 😢
I totally agree..aesthetically I love them but it's too pricey not enough bass that's my opinion
The one thing about these that cant be undersold.....fit and comfort. It does 90% of what the other in ear units do....but there are very comfortable and work very well with running activities and movement.
If you have disconnecting issues try deleting the bose app off your phone. It isn't mandatory to keep it on there. I hope saved the issue with that.
Price is an issue! Especially given certain missing features. With that said these are one of the best products I have ever bought "for me". I have extremely small ears and no in ear buds ever work and I tried them all. The only thing remotely ok was the Beats Powerbeats Pro. I also hate anything over ear because I cannot where a hat and sunglasses. These are the first things I have ever tried that actually work for me. So stoked. I can only hope more features come or the style catches on and competitors release more products.
if it were 199, hell even 250 id be on board. That's if it didn't have a short bat life and no wireless charge. They aren't even comfortable, and that's the whole point.
I think the aero fit pro is a better buy. These are gonna fail. My local bestbuy has about 60 open boxes of these
The ONLY reason the QuietComfort series is selling at all is their industry leading noise isolation. That doesn't apply here, so they have no competitive advantage.
I have the QCII and they're lacking in every category except noise cancellation.
I just got the Huawei Freeclip today, which is about half the price of the Bose version, but has every feature that the Bose lacks, while being a smaller unit with more codecs. There is literally no reason to get the Bose unless you're a slave to the brand.
I am glad to see you have a second channel! I wear hearing aids. Widex Moments to be exact. So all in ear buds are out for me. Seeing that millions of people wear hearing aids and I would imagine a few million people do love good sound... it is possible to wear this type of device and simultaneously wear a hearing aid? Thanks.
I returned it because the volume was lower compared to my Shockz Open fit, and the call quality was horrific. My parents hung up on me in frustration. I live in NYC and all they heard was the noise in the background
I get everything you’re saying but here’s another take. I’m totally blind and open earbuds are very helpful, Without them I have to take my phone out of my pocket every time I want my GPS, it's talking loud enough that it's not private and both hands are used up since I’ve got my cane. Bone conduction is nice but the sound quality just isn’t there for even casual listening, it's fine for speech from my phone and that's about it. I just got the shokz openfit air conduction buds and they’re probably the best I’ve ever had but the sound quality is still meh. I’d pay the premium for even halfway decent sound, I’m not looking for ANC and I think most people in the market for these are smart enough to know it's letting sound in.
I got the quiet comfort last year because I’ve always like their over the ear headphones. I couldn’t stand them. First they were extremely uncomfortable. And secondly, they wouldn’t even work with my iPhone. They would drop the connection randomly. And a lot. Then wouldn’t repair. Sent them back and got AirPods.
Just a thought :
I bought a Bose sound dock when it first came out, like 18 years ago , it uses a 1.5 audio cable . Still sounds great . I bought the Bose speaker sunglasses and ugh, had to return them , terrible sound.
All I'm saying is tha Bose has been to both sides of the quality spectrum .
Agreed young lad. Agreed. Hell, my new Openrock X open ear earbuds are half the price and you're certainly not getting half the sound. Bose. Sigh.
Are you planning to do a review on the soundpeats space headphones. I like to see a review before getting them.
Yep, going up in the main channel at 9am est
I love them. If you want the best sound, don’t Forget to buy the btd600. With this codecs, they are many Times better than my Sholkz. And with eyeglasses, it’s many ways better too. BMW, Mercedez always exist and it’s ok like that. If you dont want to pay, pass and take cheaper.
is that btd600 also good for watching tv?
I didn't hear anyone whinning when Apple revealed the first iPhone at around at $500 - or more - a piece.
Why is the cost of other tech items/devices are an issue? Either folks will buy it or not. With all the gadgets I see day by day, clearly money is no concern.
I'm going to get the BOSE open ultras because I DON'T want my ears plugged up all day. I'll use my Q25 headphones when I wanted to block out the world.
You forgot about Huawei Freeclip , are the ffirst open earbuds!
I want to like the Bose ultra ear buds, but the price and the experience is not what I expected. The design is really good, it allows me to wear my oakleys without getting irritated. The immersive sound feature is great but I keep adjusting them to see if they can get closer to my ear canal to get more sound from them. Overall, it is not worth it. I returned my Bose. Probably going to look at a cheaper priced similarly designed product. I like that type of design and maybe I’ll discover a really good set of ear clip buds from an unknown brand.
Update, I got the Tozo open ear buds and I returned them because they started crackling at only 50% volume. I was listening to Santana when then they started crackling. I bought some cheap ear cuff buds and they do the job. I also got the Shokz open fit and love those for my recreational activities.
Bose are still the best for noise cancelling on the subway for me (over Sony, Jabra etc. I've tried a lot!) if you're not getting that then there's no point having Bose for me
I have the Aero Fit Pro, they simply do not get loud enough. The best sounding open ear style headphones is the Cleer Arc II. They have the best sound and volume of any open style headphone I’ve owned. Bro you hit the nail right head, and I hope Bose is paying close attention to your SERIOUS review. What nerve they have trying to rip off the tech consumer with these high priced headphones👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽
Great effort. Could you compare these with Samsung buds live?
My Sony Linkbuds are all but dead now. The case won't hold a charge and the buds drain QUICKLY. Beyond useless at this point even though I truly loved them. If I bought them again, I would have spent the same $$$ as the Bose. After receiving some gift cards for my birthday, I splashed out $100 or so of my own cash to get the Bose. Not have a dang ear loop is the BEST. I wear glasses as well and no ear loop has even been totally comfortable and dang annoying after a few hours.
I think Bose has a lot of balls to charge what they do, given all that you don't get.
The very nature of open ear earbuds means you don't get ANC. Plus, these don't have wireless charging. Maybe they have good sound, but as open ear earbuds, they're not really meant for audiophiles, anyway. I really feel like companies add LDAC and other high-quality codecs to their open ear earbuds just to be able to say they have them, regardless of the value they bring.
If you want to hear the world around you, there are a lot of earbuds that have ANC *and* transparency modes so that you can hear your environment when you need to. I think the whoel open ear earbud thing is a tech fad that will fade soon when people realize they can get more features for less money from more standard in-ear earbuds.
@BrianHartman:
Perhaps, but some of us have odd shaped ears. I've spent a bit of money for earbuds only to find either I've lost one of them because they just didn't fit well, or they hurt after an hour, or they didn't fit good wearing glasses, etc. I don't think this is a trend - no more a trend of earbuds itself - why should we ALL have the same experience, fit, color, price and functionality? This is the whole reason why there's 100+ types of them. If folks can only afford a pair of earbuds for $35, then OK. If you can afford $300, everyone has to be OK with that too.
The microphone quality is what makes these not worth it
Bose 20 years ago one of the best. now poor quality and extremely overpriced!Bose are going in the wrong direction.
I have the Bose hq 2 and I payed 300 bucks for them I would EASILY pay twice the price for the quality that I got. I think the issue here is that nowadays people like you are so miserable with ur personal life that you find object to take ur anger out! Like a spoiled lil brat! If you think the Bose hq2 has bad quality you are probably going to live the rest of ur life miserable complaining about every little detail 😂😂😂😂 and if ur too broke to even try them then shut up these are NOT a necessity it’s a fun privilege that some of us get to enjoy so stop ur whining
I'd love to see an alternative to these that aren't Huawei, becuase I can't get Huawei in the u.s.
I picked up a pair of clip buds priced at $42 about two months ago and was very dissapointed with the software they were using
Hell yea, Keith. 🦦
I brought them and took them right back I couldn’t hear people talking to me very disappointed in Bose
I agree with you Bose is not the same has they were back in the day and I don’t think open earbuds should be that expensive especially since that Soundcore has open buds that are not that must in price. The only thing from Bose that I like is the Bose qc ultra headphones does are decent but everything ouch they sell is a no for me your better going with another brand yes just like the Bose qc earbuds not the ultra when they first came out they did not have dual connect which not cool
seems like this style is specifically targeting ppl who want open earbuds and cos I really hate all the buds out with rubber in ear and Im willing to pay just for the comfort...or am I
Losing one of those earbuds would definitely hurt 😂 I bought them and tbh not worth it
I agree 100% with Tech too
Please review C30i soundcore
Can't follow your argumentation. You are comparing these with closed earbuds. It's like comparing trees with birds. There is a complete different use case. I'm fully on your side when it comes down to the price. But this is the only argument at the end you have.
Very expensive in my opinion just found your second channel you got my sub nice one 👍
Thank you so much!
is it me, work great listing to whatever , but in coming call very bad
Bose, Brook Stone, Sharper Image, Apple, Sony and so on, make money off of their name. They brag that if you buy from them, you're getting your money's worth. The problem is, their stuff is over-priced. You're spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on stuff you can get for less on places like Amazon. Many cheaper competitors offer the same specs for a lot less than someone like Apple, Bose and Sony who's asking you to spend more.
Several no name brands have been selling these clip on earbud earrings for about two years or so. Bose decided to make their own, but sell theirs for a premium price. I would rather take my chances on the no name brands they sell for one hundred dollars or less rather than spend $300 on one Bose product. No multipoint connection, no wireless recharging, no noise-cancelling and so on doesn't justify $300. Which is why I don't buy Bose. Even if I had the money, the cheaper brands may not have the same quality as Bose or Apple, but I can get more for my money for less the cost of one Bose, Apple or Sony product. But people out there, keep on buying over-priced stuff because it's their favorite brand, and it makes them look special.
Agree with you.
did you review Oladance OWS Pro bro ?
Bose= Mercedez= $$$Price= Mitsubishi Specs
You can get 1More S50 for $89 at the moment
That's a good deal on those
100% a money-grab. Spot-on Keith
💯 I love new innovative tech, particularly quality earbuds. Bose Ultra open ear is an overpriced ‘gimmick’. It’s literally ‘lipstick on a pig’. I expect more from Bose and this will seriously damage their premium reputation.
Have you thought about that they are going insane on spending when it comes to advertising and celebrity sponsorship which is driving that really high price.
I think this was necessary to do when it comes to having to sell a complete new design/idea. With that being said they could dramatically improve the quality with V2 and not need to go that crazy with advertising.
$200 is just for the name "Bose". The $99 is for the buds.
Definitely agree with this
Can you ship those alternate same form factor having great sounding and aptX Adaptive supporting open earbuds for 100 USD to Europe? When will they arrive? Do you have a link in general?
Airpods 3 better ????? i dont like earbuds that go in the ear 🙁🙁🙁🙁
For the price...yes. I do feel like the Bose does sound better
I will say bhaag dk bose to Bose
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
