Open-ear headphones are becoming more and more popular, and if you’re after one, this pair of earbuds from Bose is one of the best we’ve tested.

Currently. Amazon has slashed the price of the Bose Ultra Open Bluetooth earbuds, taking $50 off the $299 RRP to make them $249.

That 17% discount represents excellent value for money, and all the various color options are part of the deal – so you can pick your chosen hue, including black, lilac and blue.

Bose’s Ultra Open earbuds are finally down to a tempting price

As with these Amazon deals, there’s no way of telling how long this price drop will last for, so we’d advise acting quickly if you want to bag yourself a bargain.

The Ultra Open Earbuds were awarded 4/5 alongside a coveted Recommended badge when we reviewed them, and we found them to be an impressive entry the wearable audio space.

They’re very comfortable to wear, sliding onto the ear like a ear-ring, allowing sounds to ear pass through you can be aware of your surroundings. You can adjust the fit how you like by sliding it up and down to find the best comfort zone.

The audio is pretty good by open-earbud standards. Clear and detailed, and much louder than previous earbuds we tested. It still suffers from the same issues as others with a limited sense of bass and the audio being overwhelmed when in loud environments. The call quality is the best we’ve sampled either.

But battery life is solid, so they can last for several hours on the go before a recharge is needed.

We did feel the Ultra Open Earbuds were expensive for the asking price, but with this welcome $50 saving, you get them for a more attractive price.
