Our Verdict

Mojawa Run Plus

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds

For most people, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are better than the Mojawa Run Plus. They're completely different designs, though, with the Bose being open-fitting by clipping on to your ears and using dynamic drivers to reproduce your audio. They provide better fidelity audio with a more useful app. They also work better on people of different head sizes and those who wear glasses. However, if you're a swimmer, the IP68 rating on the Mojawa will suit you better, as will the onboard MP3 file storage, because you can't take the Bose into a pool and use them. The bone conduction technology can fit differently on everyone, so it's a matter of personal preference as to which style you like more.
