I have used numerous different brands of around the ear noise reduction headphones but the sound quality and other features do not compare to Bose for me! I have worked in medical transcription for 35+ years and need good quality headphones with exceptional clarity and Bose provides just that. Nice long cords, adjustable head size and comfort on the ears as I use them 10+ hours every day! Love them!

I really enjoy these headphones! I use them to practice electric guitar and they are wonderful for minimizing sound when people are sleeping or busy in my household. They don't sit very tight so if you shake your head alot listening to music, they might fall off. They are fantastic for listening on the go and are easy to adjust for your comfort and fit. I would recommend them to anyone who's looking for a great quality sound, noise canceling, and comfortable headphones. The price matches the quality of bose products. For guitarists- headphones do not come with adapter for an amp. It would require and $3 adapter purchase.

The true sound range is the nicer headphones available. Passive Noise cancellation and very very comfortable to use for prolonged use.

I think with something like headphones, it's important to make clear where you're coming from as a user. I am not an audiophile. I have never spent more than thirty bucks on a pair of headphones and usually just listen to streaming talk radio on my phone with cheapola earbuds that I got at the discount store. My purpose in getting these headphones was to help me concentrate on work by isolating me from outside noise and letting me listen to non-distracting music/radio/whatever to help me focus at the computer. I did research and narrowed my search down to Bose SoundTrue (within a reasonable price range, had what I was looking for), either the around-the-ear or on-ear... with the in store try-on being the deciding factor, as I wear glasses and comfort around the ears was extremely important.
That background in place--I am really and truly glad I invested in these headphones. Not only do they meet my purpose in helping me concentrate, but I have actually started to appreciate music again. Obviously, the quality of anything you listen to will be dependent not just on the headphones or speakers you're using, but the quality of the medium, type/size of music file, hardware, etc. But going back through my music library has been an absolute joy. Not only did I buy new headphones, but I feel like I also now have a whole new music collection to (re)discover as if I'd never really heard it before. Having a high quality pair of headphones has rekindled a love of music that I haven't had in a really long time.
So far, the best experiences I've had listening with these have been to instrumental works, but some of the pop music I had has also turned out to be more interesting than I thought it was, now that I can hear the additional layers.
While these have no electronic "noise cancellation" feature, I found that the around-the-ear nature of these very comfortable headphones do a great job of blocking out noise and letting you concentrate on what you're listening to.
Rather than continue gushing... I'll just leave it at this. I'm glad I made this investment. I'm truly enjoying listening to music with these headphones (and I have used them for phone calls too--works great). They were pricey compared to what I've spent on audio before, but for me, it turned out to be well worth it. If you are an audiophile with a habit of listening to your music on superior equipment... well, I have no experience with that, so it's hard for me to say comparatively how you would feel about these. But for me--I love them!

These are by far the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. With my previous pair of over-ear headphones, after about 45 minutes of use the rim of my ears would start to hurt. However, these headphones are incredibly light and have great padding, so I can wear them all day, even with my glasses on.
I've had better sounding headphones, but they were much less comfortable and more expensive. For me, the added comfort from these is well worth a small drop in sound quality.
The headphones have been very durable so far. I keep them in the case when not in use. I have the white/blue model and there has been some slight discoloration of the white plastic in one area, but it's not very noticeable. This usually happens eventually to anything made out of white plastic anyway.
While the fact that the headphone cable disconnects from the headphones is nice, it's worth noting that this end of the cable has a proprietary plug that's slightly thinner than the standard 3.5mm headphone jack on the other end. This isn't too big a deal as long as you don't mind using the cable that comes with the headphones, and as long as you remember which end to plug into the headphones (it's the end that's closest to the volume controls). Unless it breaks, I can't imagine wanting to replace the cable anyway--the wire itself is very thin, and the plug is as well--just enough so to fit through the small hole around the headphone jack on my iPhone case.

We purchased these speakers for our son who is doing online school this year. They do a great job canceling background noise, even though they aren't the $100 more noise canceling model. The audio quality is excellent. They are very light weight, and seemingly durable.
I was never a fan of Bose speakers, I honestly thought they were an overpriced gimmick, but I am starting to think differently especially with these headphones. Compared to the competition, I believe these are the best sound for the price, and not just a fancy letter on each ear piece.

First over-the-ear headphone purchase, and I couldn't be happier. There are so many options in the $75-$100 price range, but why settle for mediocrity when you can spend $150 and get a pair of Bose? Super comfortable, lightweight and they sound great. Wireless would be great, which is what I thought I wanted, but I'm sure I'd forget to charge before a long flight. Nice to plug in and watch a movie too. Seriously, I love these headphones.

A:The SoundTrue Around-Ear headphones include an inline microphone and remote controls and are compatible with any device for audio playback. The microphone will work with a majority of smartphones, including the Samsung Galaxy though the volume controls are compatible only with certain Apple devices (such as iPhone). Thank you for your question.
A:I've found them to be very effective with noise reduction. This was a major consideration with my purchase of headphones vs. any other portable headset device. This particular style of Bose headphones are exceptionally comfortable, too.
A:What they mean is that the wireless headphones connect to the phone via Bluetooth typically and send the music wirelessly through bluetooth.
Many wireless headphones can still work with a standard 3.5mm audio plug to save battery.
A:Warranty is great, I had problems with my headphones & went back to BB & explain that I have problesm s, & without a question they replaced them right away.
