A new pair of earbuds can make a major difference in your daily life. Whether walking to work, getting good sweat on at the gym or relaxing with some new music or classic hits, having great audio can make a big difference. That's why we're highlighting these Bose Ultra Open earbuds as part of October's Prime Day sales. The two-day event might not have begun yet but Amazon has jumped the gun by dropping the price of these earbuds from $299 to $249.
Only on the market since February, this is now the lowest price we've seen. Alongside their immersive audio quality, they feature a 48-hour battery life, IPX4 water resistance, multipoint Bluetooth and flexible joint and hook for comfortable wearing.

"The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have one of the most unique and unusual designs of any earbuds I've seen over the last several years," CNET tech expert David Carnoy wrote in his review. "They literally clip onto the side of your ears and feature an open design with micro speakers that fire sound into your ears while still being able to hear what's happening around you.
He added: "At $299, they're overpriced, but otherwise there's a lot to like about them, including a surprisingly comfortable, secure fit and very good sound quality for open buds." So thanks to this $50 discount, one of the only criticisms found in our hands-on has been solved. Just make sure to grab a pair before the offer expires or stock runs out.
