Customer Ratings & Reviews

I travel very often and these are the best noise cancelling headphone I have ever had. I have previously owned various versions of the Quiet Comfort line, Beats Studio and Bang & Olufsen. These are lighter on my head than the B&O and I find them to be more comfortable than my QC35. After trying all the others, I keep coming back to Bose for their combination of noise cancellation (superior to the B&O) and sound quality. I would highly recommend these.

These headphones are likely worth it if you make a lot of call with them in busy environments. Other than the microphone they lack any significant advantages over competitors and are overall a downgrade from the QC-35 Sound: Sound is a little better than the QC-35. They sound a little more full than the QC's, but still don't sound very detailed. I don't mind the bose sound signature and once bose releases an EQ they might be as good as the competition that is already out. ANC: I didn't notice any sounds that the QC-35's failed to block out blocked out by these headphones. Maybe in some situations these have superior ANC, but so far I haven't found them. Sony's wh-1000 xm3 is has noticeably better ANC in public places still. Comfort: A fairly large downgrade from the QC-35. headband is less padded, clamp force is stronger, and ear-cushions and smaller. They still aren't uncomfortable headphones, but Bose lost the biggest advantage they had over competitors Design: The new design looks great laying on a table, but it's functionality is bad. The big metal headband is cumbersome. It's uncomfortable leaning up against anything or lying down with it on, and it looks a little ridiculous when it's actually on your head. Battery life: worse than other usb-c competitors User interface: Buttons are in annoying locations and require too little pressure to activate, so they'll be getting pressed randomly all the time putting them on and taking them off. The touch controls work well for me. App: I can get it to connect to the headphones by turning airplane mode on and off every single time I want to use it, but that's unacceptable for a $400 product. Note despite all my criticisms I still gave these four stars. They're still good headphones, but the only noticable advantages these have over the QC-35 are the mic and the usb-c charging. The other improvements are so small I don't even know if they weren't just placebo effect of enjoying a new product. The changes to the controls, the functionality of the design, and the comfort are all big downgrades. Add into that app problems and it's a really disappointing product for being the new most expensive in class product, and following up a product as good as the QC-35.

The inside of the headband of the headphones is smooth and super soft, making for a very positive listening experience when using long-term. The ear cushions are amazingly comfortable, and the length of the headband is very easy to adjust. The rock/alternative music has an amazing mix quality. It appears that there is almost a programmed ability or sensitivity for the headphones to decipher when the bass is the primary focus, as the mix changes to accentuate that layer of sound. The most interesting part, to me, is that I have been able to recognize more of the lyrics on some of the pop and rap songs that I used to test the headphones. The noise cancelling really excels when listening to music with very fast lyrics. The words are so much crisper and clearer. The only downside is that there is a small button (noise cancellation) on the left ear muff that seems fairly easy to hit. I think the location of this button could be reconsidered for the next model. Overall, these headphones are an amazing product. The attractiveness of the product matches the quality in the noise cancelling and the increase in the quality of music listening.

These Bose Noise Cancelling 700 headphones are amazing. They have a padded head band that is very soft on your head. Feels like memory foam! The ear pads are the same, super soft and conforming to your ear. This headphone is smart! You touch the right ear pad on the outer shell to control the sound, change the songs, and to tell you how much battery life is remaining. You can even take calls from these! As far as noise canceling these have been the best I’ve used. The outside noise is minimal and the clarity of music and sound is phenomenal. The nice thing is, if the battery dies it has an auxiliary cable you can directly connect and listen to music or movies. These hook up via Bluetooth which is easy to use. They have a nice hard case to store them as well. Another great feature is that the headphones are fully adjustable for smaller or larger heads. These are really nice headphones and I would recommend them!

Great noise cancellation, great fit until you sweat at the gym, they slide off lol other than that super comfortable, even if you wear glasses like me. Listening to podcasts sound quality is good but when listening to music these are fantastic!!! Battery life is awesome, used these on a flight to Philadelphia and it lasted the entire 6hrs because the Battery Life is 20hrs or something like that. Great purchase :)

I work on a tug boat, so a huge Cat engine running 24/7. That thing when were underway is Beyond loud, you cant hear each other shout. Our cabins are adjacent and similarly just as loud. Sleeping in these headphones with the noise cancelling on 100%, the engine becomes a small hum, it's seriously impressive! I could wear then quite easily each night, and it took a rather unpleasant night with earplug into a pretty dang decent one. They're decently comfortable, though the band could be a little tighter, so if you don't have a larger head, you may need a headband -for sleeping-, regular use there wouldn't be any issue. Sound is decent, I have some Sennheiser earbuds, though they're not quite that level, they're Bose, they're good! Biggest gripe, like many others, you can't turn off those dang touch controls. And it gets real annoying.... just a software update would fix it but there hasn't been one. Even with masking tape, duct tape and electrical tape layered one on top of the other it still senses the slightest of touch. It's annoying. But overall, a solid choice for a worker, aeroplane rider, anyone around loud engines or machinery. Probably a little less so for anyone who is around quick sharp high noises, they can miss some frequencies, but will still dampen most sounds. I would happily recommend, but Bose need to add a touch disabler for a full 5 stars.

This is 5th pair of Bose headphones. This is my 3rd pair of their wireless products. The things I like most are the light weight, no ear fatigue after long listening sessions, they work as a headset and of course amazing sound. They continue to up their game when it comes to high fidelity. I highly recommend these over less expensive and more expensive competitive product. They have a unique slide on feature that will probably be copied by other manufacturer's. The Amazon Alexa connection is a nice add-on but I'd still buy these without that feature.

So, I've now tried sennheiser momentum, bose 700, B&O PX7 and Sony 1000x3. Purchased them all from Bestbuy within the last 6 weeks. Bose comfortable fit, nice controls, great NC and good, balanced sound. Sennheiser has great build quality, great sound and poor NC. B&O are heavy, well build, fair noise cancelling and best sound quality of the bunch, fair controls. Sony has best fit, equal NC to Bose, great controls and great sound (B&O slightly wider platform) I would choose Bose if NC was most important. B&O if sound quality was most important. I choose Sony because they scored (in my opinion) equal to the best in every test area. They are as quiet as Bose and sound as good as the B&O. I would still recommend the Bose 700 because they are excellent in all respects and if you like em, buy em.

#Bose #reviewclub #freetoreview #sponsered #ad I received my noise cancellation head phones from Bose!! I'm so exstatic, I absolutely adore Bose.. Bose represents sound.. Bose is well known for the high quality, super clear sound. I have had the pleasure of hearing Bose surround sound and that was amazing.. I felt as though I was sitting front row to the Fleetwood Mac concert I was watching. The sound was so clean and crisp. You can literally hear every note.... The noise cancellation headphones are superb with a clean, clear, crisp sound.. It absolutely takes your music to its fullest potential and makes your movies, YouTube tv expierance and anything with voice over the perfect expierance. It's so surreal!! #Bosenoisecancellationheadphones are the absolute best for clear and clean sound. I definantly reccommend these to anyone.. If you are a music fan like me you need these headphones!! #happyreviewer #Bose #ad #sponsered #Reviewclub #freetoreview! BEST REVIEW EVER.. THANK YOU #BOSE FOR THIS OPPURTUNITY.. THANK YOU REVIEWCLUB FOR THE OPPURTUNITY!!

I upgraded from the QC25’s. These are a little heavier (not by much), but it’s so nice having no wires and the sound quality is just as good, if not better. Only downside is I can’t carry an extra battery in case these die on a long flight, I have to have a USB charging port. But the batteries last 14 hours on a full charge, so just don’t forget to charger them before you go. If I have one gripe, it’s the location of the side buttons. They are exactly where I grab when I move or take off the headphones. I’ve had to relearn where to grab and also avoid the touch controls on the right side. The touch controls make this easier to deal with though, they’re NICE!

Best noise-cancelling headphones on the market! Comfortable, easy to use. Has downloadable phone app for adjusting settings. Pairs easily with devices - I use it both for bluetooth listening to tv across the room and also with just a background white noise app to drown out neighbor's lawn mowing/blowing - works very well. Battery/charging life lasts a long time, auto-turns off when not in use, which further keeps the charge intact for a long time.

Great sound, very comfortable, and light weight makes long periods of listening a pleasure. However, it can be difficult at time to establish Bluetooth connectivity

Traded in my Jabra Elite 85H for the Bose 700. Lightweight and comfortable to wear. Great sound quality for Zoom meetings and phone calls. I mostly use the headphones for phone calls and music in between calls for work. No issues connecting to the app, and so far headphones has stayed connected. Made quite a few phone calls wearing the headphones, and on a Zoom meeting right now. The only downfall between the Bose and Jabra so far is the battery life. Jabra about doubles Bose 700 battery life. Compared to the Jabra 85’s the Bose 700 is lighter and more comfortable to wear for prolonged amounts of time. Additionally, the Bose 700’s do not collapse like the Jabras or other Bose headphones. Not a dealbreaker, however the little things add up.

Honestly these are some of the best headphones I’ve ever bought, well worth the price. The sound quality is excellent, the music comes out clearly and your able to notice small details. The noise cancellation is great too, at max settings you can just put them on and forget about the world around you. The quality of the material is pretty good too, very comfortable and the battery seems to last forever. My only complain would be the power button, since it can be hard to tell when it is off or on with only sound cues.

Bose went back to the drawing board for its latest headphones, and that decision was a success. The 700 has better noise-cancellation thanks to customization, and thankfully, it looks much better than the company's previous models. Touch controls are reliable and the battery life is adequate to keep the music going for as long as you'll need. There's a lot to like here, but for $399, these needed to be perfect to dethrone Sony. That said, Sony needs to nail any future version of the WH-1000X to keep Bose from retaking the crown. The gap isn't as wide as it was a few months ago.

Ended up buying these while I was away on a business trip. The flight on my way out was terrible and I really didn't want to have the same experience on my way back. As soon as I connected to my phone and got setup, I was amazed how well they worked!! It doesn't completely cancel out the engine noise of the plane, but you can't hear any of the other passengers, which is a huge plus!! Battery life is awesome as well; goes and goes for hours. One of the best features is the phone headset function and being able to pause the noise cancellation to have a conversation without removing the headphones. Solid piece of equipment and comfortable! Great for road warriors!!

Industry leading comfort and active noise cancellation. Lacking when it comes to sound quality and loudness. If you prefer to listen to bass heavy music this will not cut it, but you can wear these for hours without any fatigue or heat. Battery life is more than enough for most travels and charges pretty quick. They have held up pretty good for two years and I like the slim carrying case with the magnetic cord compartment.

The noise cancelling is PERFECT for avoiding the overstimulation of wild children and their dumb TV shows while also being able to hear enough to parent. Also the music quality is AMAZING. I'm so happy with them. They are soft and comfy and lightweight and the battery lasts forever.

My first impression for these headphones were that they were quality. I had bought the QC35iis around the same time, but then the 700s went on sale for the same price so I decided to get them as well to compare. Immediately, I could tell the immense difference in build quality, look, and just overall user experience, with the 700s blowing the QC35iis out of the water. Even just the box and the initial set up sounds from turning on the headphones screamed luxury compared to the flimsy box the QCs came in. So if you're buying these headphones because you want to look and feel rich, these are the ones to get. But of course, most people are looking for function over form, so here is my personal comparison between the QC35iis and NC700s after intense daily testing for about a week. COMFORT: I'd have to say that the NC700s were pretty uncomfortable initially, while the QC35iis felt like little clouds on my ears. But after stretching out the NC700s (on the box or something bigger than your head), they became immensely comfortable and you end up forgetting they're on your head. The difference in comfort is only noticeable when comparing them side-by-side. If your only concern is comfort in headphones, I'd say go with the QC35iis, but the difference is really marginal. Winner: QC35iis SOUND: I am not an audiophile so I won't be able to speak in technical terms, but for the average headphone user, both the NC700s and QC35iis perform great. I couldn't really tell much of a difference between the two, but I read somewhere some "highs" came out a bit sharp on the NC700s and I think I noticed it a couple times but overall, not really. Winner: Tie NOISE CANCELLING: Both headphones' noise cancelling features work fantastically! I use it to block out noisy roommates, neighbors, or really loud background noise from industrial fans, air conditioning, streets, and it works wonders. For days I like to sleep in, these headphones really help me knock out. Haven't gotten a chance to try it out on an airplane yet, but I'm excited to be able to hear my music/podcasts over the loud droning. The noise cancelling features were really the selling point of the NC700s for me over the QC35iis. With the 700s you have the ability to adjust the noise cancelling to specific levels, and most impressively, there's a transparency mode which uses the headphone's mics to actively transmit outside noise so it sounds like you're not wearing headphones at all. One qualm I had with the QC35iis was that I didn't like having to take off the headphones to hear people and it was kinda weird to not be able to hear my own voice when talking, so transparency mode was a game-changer. It's also a nice feature when walking outside or when you're in a situation where you need to be more alert of your surroundings. Winner: NC700s CONNECTIVITY: I believe NC700s are using the newer Bluetooth 5.0, so I did notice the NC700s kept connection for further distances than the QC35iis, but there was not a huge difference (maybe like an extra foot or two). The QC35iis honestly had a lot of connectivity issues with my MacBook Pro, with it not being able to switch between FaceTime and other applications without me having to manually disconnect and reconnect it. The switching between my phone and laptop was not very seamless, and overall the process was very buggy, which was annoying considering these headphones cost $300. The NC700s on the other hand had a much more seamless experience. I never had an issue after hanging up FaceTime calls or with switching between applications. The switch between devices was a lot easier too. Of course, there are some drops from time to time still, but usually fixable. One thing to keep in mind is that you need internet to connect headphones to devices via the Bose Music app, so if you need to reset your headphones when you don't have connection (like on an airplane), you may be out of luck. It seems to be a rare occurrence and I haven't run into it yet. Unfortunately, Bose wireless headphones connectivity just isn't quite there yet, especially with the Apple ecosystem. Winner: NC700s CONTROLS: The touch controls on the NC700s work very well, but they take some getting used to. After you get acquainted with them, I personally would say I prefer them over the physical buttons on the QC35iis. It's quick and easy to tap or swipe and it definitely feels more modern. The tactile buttons on the NC700s feel nice and are very responsive, but as many other reviewers have mentioned, they are placed poorly, making it extremely easy to accidentally press them. After a couple days you get used to it though and learn to place your hands, so I haven't accidentally pressed the buttons in a while. Winner: Tie (depends on preference) PORTABILITY: QC35iis fold up, and the NC700s don't. That makes it a bit annoying, as the NC700s end up taking a larger footprint, and I don't feel that comfortable throwing them into my backpack without placing them in the case. Overall, I haven't found it to be that much of an issue though. Winner: QC35iis CALL QUALITY: This is honestly where the NC700s outshine every other headphone I've tried. As someone who takes a lot of calls, the experience with the NC700s makes the extra cost completely worth it. When using the microphone with the QC35iis there is a constant static noise that no longer exists with the NC700s! In addition, using transparency mode while on a phone call makes the entire experience a lot more comfortable as you can hear your own voice and it gets rid of any annoying sidetone. In a noisy room, the NC700s pick up my voice perfectly, and the people on the other side say they can barely ever hear any background noise. When I'm not talking, they said my microphone is dead silent. In comparison, when my roommates were in the room while I was on a call with the QC35iis, the person on the other end claimed they could hear them louder than me. Winner: NC700s (by a landslide) Overall: QC35iis beat out NC700s in terms of comfort (marginally, both are very comfy) and portability. The NC700s come with a handful of new handy features, insanely good call quality, and an overall more premium feel and seamless experience. In my opinion, The QC35iis are probably a better value if you don't need to take phone calls, but the NC700s are definitely an upgrade, and if they're on sale they are 100% worth it.

Between these and the Beats Studio3 Noise Cancelling headphones, the Bose is hands down worth the extra $60. 17 hours of listening and talk time. Great for the gym, working from home, cooking or cleaning the house. Three levels of noise cancellation, easy Bluetooth connectivity, fits small heads.
