When I first tried Bose’s Ultra Open Earbuds (7/10, WIRED Recommends), they had some connection issues and a price that felt out of touch for earbuds that always let the world in. Bose has since fixed the connection troubles, and I’ve fallen for these buds. I still think their price is high, but damn if they’re not fabulously convenient. They’ve become my go-to buds for everything from chores around the house to hikes, dog walks, and anytime I want to feel connected. Their unique design fits securely and comfortably, and their sound is better than anything else in the open-ear genre. There’s not a ton of bass, and you’ve got to swap them out for tasks that need noise-canceling, like vacuuming, mowing the lawn, or simply checking out. But if you’ve got the cash for buds that always keep you in the know, these are my favorites.
