If the call quality is "super" important to you, get the Shokz OpenDots ONE.
Community Reviews
Bose Ultra Open Earbuds stand out for open ear listening with strong sound, a secure clip on fit, and enough comfort for workouts, runs, chores, and hearing your surroundings. The light design stays put during movement, and the updated firmware helps the microphone enough for basic calls in some settings. The main knocks are call quality complaints on some units, awkward on bud controls, and fit that can feel too tight or odd for long wear. Open box condition and fake unit concerns also come up, so this is best when sound and awareness matter more than call use.
Runners and gym-goers who want earbuds that stay put during movement, because they do not pop out and can remain stable even during shaking or head-banging.
People working from home or doing chores who want light earbuds they can forget about, because the open-ear design stays comfortable around the house.
Listeners who want to hear traffic or coworkers while playing audio, because the open-ear design keeps surroundings audible.
People with sensitive ear canals or eczema who cannot tolerate in-ear buds, because nothing touches the inside of the ear.
People who need reliable phone calls, because the microphone can be unusable and may leave the other person unable to hear you.
Listeners who want all-day comfort, because the ear-hook fit can become annoying and may need readjusting during long wear.
People who want simple on-bud controls, because volume and other functions are hard to adjust from the earbuds themselves.

This is my review on the Shokz.
"Have these and the first gen. Love them. The 2nd Gen has a great upgrade with the touch button. Battery life is great, sound is amazing, mic sounds clear according to the people I talk to. Charge is very fast and gives you hours with a 5 minute charge if you need to extend the conversation. They are light and can barely notice them on. They are open so you are aware of your surroundings. Case is magnetic so they align quick and no guessing. They connect to Bluetooth very fast, almost pair before you take it out of the case and on one ear.
I also have the Bose open ear type that wrap around your ear and the these beat the Bose almost in every category. Same with any airpods, I have 1st, 2nd Gen air pods and the pros and Shokz beat them all.
I have to say these are probably the best wireless bud type on the market by far. Don't know what they will do with a 3rd gen and how they will top it. In the open ear category these are Alpha, no one beats them.
Great price for used, would jump on these without hesitation."
So altho the Bose are great, the Shokz are vast superior. Hope this helps.
I got 2x new pair for $300 total awhile back off ebay.

What doesn't work on the fake ones is that it won't connect to the Bose app. The buttons do different things, the lights are different and the magnet/hinge is much weaker on the fakes. They do show up with the same name in Bluetooth settings as the real pair. I bought my real ones directly from Bose and returned them, despite the fact that I don't like returning things, in general. The biggest problem with the fake ones as they are way too tight. The flexible silicone is stronger despite being the same size as the fake pair. They are very uncomfortable to wear that tightly. The fake ones stay in my ear no problem whatsoever without being nearly as tight. They do sound better, but I only wear them as background music when I'm working so audio quality isn't my priority. I hope Bose releases a bigger one or something with looser silicone similar to the fake ones.
I would caution that these might be returns of fake units, so make sure you can connect to the Bose app. I would imagine that a lot of the reviews about the bad microphone quality are people who didn't even know they had fake units because mine were fine.
One other difference was that I had to peel one of those strips to open the original pair. The fake ones come with a very similar looking sleeve and packaging but they came shrink wrapped. Open box originals should have the leftover from that peel strip, it's like perforated thin cardboard.
