Bose’s sleek Ultra Open Earbuds do things a little differently from most true wireless earbuds – because they don’t go inside your ear. Instead, they hook around the outside, so they’re comfortable and you’ll still be able to hear the world around you. Thanks to this Black Friday deal there’s never been a better time to buy a pair.

The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds wrap around the outside of your ear, as opposed to being pushed in like most of the best earbuds. Because of that, they also allow sounds from your environment through. If you're not a fan of active noise-cancelling, these won't cut you off from the outside world.

When T3 reviewed them, comfort was an overriding positive of these earbuds. They are super-lightweight and their wrap-around design doesn’t clasp your ear – so you can wear them literally all day and not get any aches at all.

Given the style, you can’t expect to be transported into your own world of music, but these aren’t designed for that. They use Bose's OpenAudio Acoustic di-pole proprietary technology to direct the sound into your ear, but there’s still plenty of room for external noise to get in. What that will allow you to do is listen to music but also be able to speak or listen to the people around you without having to pause the song.

A great alternative to uncomfortable in-ear headphones, you can buy the Bose Ultra Open in two sleek and stylish colours: Black or White Smoke. Whichever you choose, this deal being the most affordable to date makes it a star buy. So if Bose's alternative earbuds sound up your street, now is certainly the time to buy a pair.
