AirPods and their many doppelgängers aren't for everyone. If you're not a fan of the design or fit and want to try something a bit different, the Bose Ultra Open's unique design might be right up your alley — and they're currently on sale for 30% off.

As of May 9, the Bose Ultra Open earbuds in the Diamond 60th Anniversary Edition colorway are on sale for just $209 at Amazon. That's $90 off their usual cost and just $10 away from their best price on record.

The Ultra Open earbuds keep you in touch with your surroundings while you listen to music, audiobooks, or podcasts. Each earbud loops around the edge of your ear like an earring cuff, rather than going inside your ear canal. The open design (hence the name) makes them a particularly good option for runners, cyclists, or commuters looking to stay aware and alert.

Mashable's reviewer RJ Andersen writes, "Though we were skeptical at first, these buds are extremely comfortable and score top marks for battery life, spatial audio, and sound quality."

The buds clock in at over seven hours of play time and the included charging case offers another 2.5 full charges. Our reviewer found the battery life to be crazy good and right on the money with what Bose claimed.

If you're not into the AirPods-style earbuds and want to try something a little different, the Bose Ultra Open are in a category of their own. Plus, they're $90 cheaper than usual, so why not give them a shot?
