Battery life is great! Along with the noise canceling, sound is also great. If you like full ear covered headphones these are awesome, but wouldn't use them at the gym or for a run. Would recommend other ear buds for that.

Pretty comfortable but a little on the heavy side that caused them to move with a head tilt. I didn’t hear much of a difference between ANC on or off, so that was a little disappointing but better than too much outside noise. The app was fairly easy to use especially to familiarize yourself with the controls.

If you’re considering a great quality sound, these are it. Noise cancelling is great for working out uninterrupted in the gym. Great for travel. Highly recommend.

Really comfortable and great sound. I have the Bose Key Lime buds and they both are my favs. The noise cancelling of the headphones is exceptional.

The sound quality and noise cancellation are top notch - in the class. There are audiophile-quality headphones that will sound better, but the noise cancellation will not be as robust. For my son, that was a top consideration and these hit that mark better than anyone else. Coupled with a solid Black Friday price, this was an awesome pickup.

Fails to cancel noise

I bought these headphones for their noise canceling properties, so that's what I'm going to focus on.
Headphones cancel noise in two ways: Active and Passive. Active cancels it by playing sound waves to counter the sounds around you. It only works with consistent noises like a plane engine or an ac unit. Passive works by physically blocking the noise, it's similar to blocking noise with your fingers.
This headset is advertised as having both types and fails at both of them.
Best Buy doesn’t have a "specification" for passive noise canceling(PNC), but it does have one for "sound isolating" which is the closest to PNC that I could find.
For the active noise canceling, on its strongest setting, it dampens consistent noises, but that's all. It doesn't cancel them out, they are still quite loud. My best example is a vacuum, despite the fact it is a consistent sound, and what the active noise canceling is made for, I still hear the vacuum quite loudly. Even from six feet away, I can hear an average power fan. It fails at canceling noise.
As for the sound isolating, it doesn't isolate sound. Wearing the headphones doesn't even dampen noise from close up, unwinding the cord of a vacuum is the same level of volume while wearing the headphones or not wearing them. Dogs barking more than two rooms away is muffled by maybe 20% while wearing them.
This level of noise canceling is something I'd expect from 100 dollar, poor quality headphones. Not headphones worth $300 or "$429 competitor's price."
Calling this "sound isolating" is negligent at best and willfully ignorant or malicious at worst, I expected better from Best Buy.
Don't waste your money, I'm planning on refunding at my first opportunity.
Hi Tristan, thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones feature advanced spatial audio and world-class noise cancellation, including Quiet Mode for full isolation, Aware Mode to hear surroundings (with ActiveSense to dampen sudden loud spikes), and Immersion Mode for spatial audio with full cancellation.
We appreciate you pointing out the differences between “sound isolating” and passive noise canceling, and we’ll make sure your comments are passed along to our product team. Your perspective helps us understand where improvements are needed. We’re sorry to hear that the noise canceling performance hasn’t met your expectations. Since active and passive noise canceling can vary depending on the environment and fit, you may find it helpful to adjust the noise cancellation levels through the Bose Music App.

Purchased the Bose headphones for my frequent cross country business trips. I can dream with these on. I can sleep on my red eyes in comfort without the distractions of coughing or the occasional baby vocal displeasures. More comfortable than the other brand I own. Worth the price.

Better value for money than apple airpods max. Sound quality is great. It puts a bit more pressure on ears than you would like from an expensive headset, if that is criteria for someone they should try out all in a store before buying. Its manageable for me though. Other than that i love the physical controls it has which make life easier.

I've been a Bose customer for over fifteen years now. I have never been disappointed with any of their products. Perfect headphone for use around the house or while on a walk.
