Features

  • Heart-stopping sound with each play.

    CustomTune technology analyzes your ears and adapts the sound and noise cancelling to their unique shape. The result? World-class noise cancellation and sound tailored to you for more goosebumps and bigger chills every time you press play.

  • World-class noise cancellation.

    When all you want is music, there’s the best noise cancelling of any Bose earbud. And now it’s even better than before. ActiveSense technology automatically smooths spikes in surrounding sound, so even in Aware Mode distractions won’t get in the way.

  • Modes put you in the moment.

    Tune all the way in to totally jam out with the full noise cancellation of Quiet Mode. Or keep on top of your surroundings in Aware Mode for full transparency. There’s also Immersion Mode that blends noise cancelling with Bose Immersive Audio for the realest listening experience.

  • Immersive Audio. Feel the real.

    A must-have for anyone serious about sound, Bose Immersive Audio spatializes what you’re hearing by taking it out of your head and placing beyond your earbuds. It’s like listening from the acoustic sweet spot, where songs sound like the artist intended and movies have theater-like levels of depth and realism.

  • Fit? Check.

    Focus on the beat — not your buds. Choose from nine combinations of eartips and stability bands to find the most secure, snug fit. The soft, umbrella-shaped tips seal off the opening of your ear to reduce outside noises. And stability bands hug the contours of your ears for a fit that won’t quit.

  • Calls count, too.

    Stay in touch while you’re out with the clearest phone calls. Noise-rejecting mics focus on your voice and AI-based background noise suppression filters out your surroundings and wind so you can be heard and hear it all. Take calls with both or a single earbud, whatever works for you.

  • Keep the music playing.

    Play for up to 6 hours in Quiet or Aware Mode (up to 4 hours with Immersive Audio).* Running short on power? The case itself holds up to three additional full charges,** and recharging it is now easier than ever with new wireless capabilities.

  • Hands-free, hassle-free switching.

    Bluetooth multipoint offers seamless, uninterrupted listening. Switch between your phone, your laptop, and other devices with ease — all without missing a moment.

  • Stay connected.

    Advanced Bluetooth connectivity offers a strong, continuous connection within 30 feet of your device.

  • Swipe, tap, touch to get into the music.

    Play or pause music, change the volume, and switch tracks with simple touch controls right on the earbuds themselves. You can even answer calls and cycle through modes, all without ever taking out your phone.

  • Control everything in the Bose app.

    Take personalization to another level in the Bose app. Create a Custom Mode (such as combining Aware Mode and Immersive Audio) or use Adjustable EQ settings to dial in the sound. Control bass, mid-range, and treble levels as you go. The app also lets you check the battery life of your earbuds and case, customize a shortcut, and manage connected devices.

    Great sound quality and fit

    Great overall sound, crisp, clean, good lows, mid, highs with customizable eq. End users report clean crisp phone calls, great noise canceling, also adjustable. Multiple ear pieces and wings tips to fit. These fit my ears great, can wear them all day without getting sore, they stay in place, something I've struggled with other buds but not these. I found no need to look further, the bose are everything I require an need from ear buds. I've recommended these to others who have been pleased.

    Quiet and Comfort without compromise

    My bedroom is on the second floor and is above 2 bathrooms and the laundry room, consequentially I'm constantly hearing an exhaust fan in my room from either of those rooms under me, nothing I tried could drown out that noise without me listening to something extremely loud in my ear. even the standing fan in my room couldn't get loud enough to drown out that noise, but these earbuds finally did the trick, so I can sit in my room in peace with some quiet. They feel real nice too, in the hand and in the ear. you can get a pretty good deal and kinda forget you have them on and sleeping with them isn't much of an issue, but taking them out of the case can be a bit of a hassle. the stay aware mode is actually really good genuinely sounding like you don't have earbuds in even with audio playing. The only Problem is the official stay aware mode doesn't allow spatial audio? I had to make my own mode set the noise cancelation off there to enable spatial audio while being aware of my surroundings. The sound is pretty good, it's very clean and clear audio, it's is kinda weak on he bass tho, thankfully the bose app has an equalizer for the buds, so I upped the bass to +3 and treble to +2 and that did the trick for me, you really don't have to mess with it anymore than that, unlike the cheaper buds. It also has a cinema mode, which I don't really understand what it does, but it is good for TV.

    Great overall.

    Sound quality is awesome with good bass. I wear them at work most of the day and they fit well and stay in place well while working. I've had a few issuses with the two earbuds not syncing correctly but typically putting them back in the case and taking them out again fixes it. The noise canceling is very good but breaks up with some harsh noises such as saws or nailers.

    Earbuds Quality that stands out!

    I was a former Beats Studio+ user and the audio quality is what stands out. The shape of the earbud and changeable silicone attachments make it more suited to the user ear shape. I haven’t had any issue with sound and noise cancellation working so far. The only thing for me that lacks is being able to see the battery percentage since you wouldn’t know when they will shut off.

  • Can theses be used on the shooting range to cx gun shots

    Gun shots will cause the noise canceling to break up and get temporarily static as they are too loud and harsh. You can turn off noise canceling and use them that way but they won't block as much as foam earplugs.

  • Can these be used as hearing aids?

    While I don’t need hearing aids yet my hearing is going to the point I have to be tested yearly. I have been using the quiet comfort ultra 1st gen and now the 2nd gen to help hear better in noisy situation in Aware Mode while at work and in noisy situations. They help me a lot hear every word around me and block out other noises at the same time. I know they are not hearing aids but they help greatly for those going deaf without having hearing aids and greatly cheaper.

  • Can these be used on airplane to watch movies provided by the airline ?

    Yes, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen) headphones can be used on airplanes to watch movies provided by the airline. You can connect them using the included 2.5mm-to-3.5mm audio cable, which is the most reliable option for in-flight entertainment systems. Some airlines also support Bluetooth pairing, but it’s best to check with the airline beforehand.
