We investigate the optimality of the entropic uncertainty relation proven by Maassen and Uffink and its generalisation to side information from Berta et al for observables, for which the lower bound attains its maximal value. Here, we call an uncertainty relation optimal if the lower bound can be attained for any value of either of the corresponding uncertainties. We show that the uncertainty relation with side information cannot be optimised. In the case of the Maassen-Uffink uncertainty relation, we disprove a conjecture by Englert et al and provide a characterisation of those states that parametrise the optimal lower bound. This leads to a new conjecture.
