Amazing sound but pricy.
I’ve had this earbuds for a few weeks and I love them. I love the way they sound and the way they fit. Usually I like to use AirPods since it’s easier to connect to my other Apple products but they always seem to slip out when I use them. There’s no issues with this ones slipping out since they have different size wing tips. They are comfortable to wear even for hours. They are pretty easy to control since you can control your music without taking your phone out with the touch functions on the earbuds. There’s a few things that I don’t like. Sometimes when I’m laying down and I lay one my side with my earbud on they change the songs or lower/raise volume, so I would say they are really sensitive. But that can be avoided so not a deal breaker. Another thing I don’t like is that it’s kinda hard to take them out of the case itself. Also the battery life isn’t as good as I would like it to be but it still last around 5 hours(using immersive audio). Other than that I would 100% recommend them even if they’re a bit pricy.

Truly best of breed!
These are really good earbuds! I got both these and the Sony WF-1000XM5, and as a BB total member, had some time to make the decision between the two. Went on 4 flights and compared overall performance between the two options, and the Bose came on top on almost everything besides one feature, at least for my individual needs (i travel a lot and mostly use the earbuds in flights): 1. Active Noise Cancellation: The Bose are way better in the ANC feature than the Sony, especially in flight, but even overall in a noisy environment, with high volume conversations in the background, The Sony were good, but in my opinion not even remotely close to the Bose. 2. Comfort in the ear: I liked the Bose ear feeling more, they're not as big inside the ear and the ANC makes it that they don't have to be pushed all the way in the ear to function at a high level. the Sony has this foam like material that expands in the ear, which on the positive adds some more blockage to the noise, but on the negative after a while you start feeling in in your ear. 3. Sound quality: I think the Bose are a better sound overall, both on phone calls and on music. Watched several TV shows and a Movie with both, and the sound coming from the Bose was more crisp and rich but the sound from the Sony was more bass and deep, so i guess it's a matter of individual preference. 4. App: having both apps, i can definitely say they both suck, but the Bose app sucks a bit less. I had some connectivity issues with the Sony on both my Samsung S24 Ultra and my Lenovo Laptop - maybe it was a local problem with the pair i had, but the BT kept disconnecting from the earbuds perspective once every couple of hours. No connectivity issues with the Bose. The only definitive advantage i found with the Sony earbuds was the microphone. the mic on the Sony is way better when having a phone call when compared to the Bose. the Bose have this echo resonance in the background but the Sony sounds good and clean. Verified with several calls to people and getting their feedback on how they heard the conversation from their perspective. Overall, these are great, and for my individual needs the Bose were just a bit better than the Sony ones (higher need for ANC during flights and emphasis on sound quality).

Great sound and noise reduction. Controls quirky.
My first pair was the Quiet Comfort II but had to return them for the rubber surround coming off. These are the improved version of that model. Sound is excellent with enough bass to thump. Pairing with my Samsung S24 Ultra surprisingly simple. The included ear foam and surrounds gives you a lot of fir options too. The only thing to get used to are the controls. A touch, doulble touch, slide, etc. can be confusing. Watch YouTube videos will help a lot. They are not cheap but quality isn't cheap. Try them out for yourself. Enjoy!
