Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love love love the bose noise cancelling headphones. Sleek design and long battery life. Really blocks out the noise, and is great for playing music. Greatest purchase I have made in college thus far!

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.

So glad I purchased these. I love Bose products and this is no exception. Great quality, very comfortable. Noise cancellation is amazing. Bought on sale however paying full price woulda been worth these!! So easy to set up and the battery life is outstanding

Just jumped ship from Airpods Pros. These are way more comfortable, way better quality, WAY BETTER BATTERY LIFE. I enjoy using them for downtime. I personally wouldn't use them to workout, and I have a smaller head (haha) so they slip a bit, but it doesn't bother me much.

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!!

Pros very solid sound quality its flat so good for all types of music app is flushed out alot of bad reviews about app not working but its been a few years now that these has been out and had 0 problems its nice being able to control how much nc you have sound quality doesnt get affected until you go above 7 on nc all other headphones with nc will take a sound quality hit with nc on now for the cons if you have larger ears like mine your ears may touch the cups it will get uncomfortable after 3 hours but everyone else in my family that has normal sized ears could wear them all day and last con is they dont support the highest res Bluetooth but then again majority of my content i concume dont use the highest res i personally perfer the sound of these over the sony and ultras but if your a bass head youll probaly want sony or ultras the bass is solid but not hitting super hard i have bass headphones when i want to jam out to edm

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.

Excellent! The shipping to my house made it simple as I had to order these from home. Bose never fails, these have been perfect in every sense. Amazing sound, comfortable feel, and solid battery life to last a while on vacations!

I've always been a fan of Bose headphones, and my old wireless ones were starting to wear down after years of heavy use, so I decided to upgrade. The price is a bit steep but these headphones are premium. I purchased them before traveling, and was hoping for comfort and good noise cancelling, and I got my wish. As soon as I was able to get a good fit, it was easy to forget I was even wearing them. The circumaural ear cups fit nicely and the cushioning is very soft. I didn't feel any of the pressure around my ears that I've felt on other models. Battery life is stellar. I rarely have to charge these headphones and can go about my day without worrying about a dead battery. The noise cancelling is quite good, but not jaw-dropping. I don't mind having a bit of background noise, so it's not a huge issue for me, but someone who enjoys absolute silence may want to test them before they buy. The software for the Bose headphones is pretty great. The headphones can connect to multiple devices at the same time, so I can play a game on my tablet and listen to music on my phone if I so desire. Sound options are easy to adjust in-app as well. Overall I am happy with these headphones and don't have any major gripes.

Got them right before my long haul trip across to the other end of the world, was the best decision I have ever made. Helped me relax cutting out plane’s noise completely. Battery life is amazing... easily 16-18 hours per charge. What surprised me the most was its ability to cut out noise while I am taking my calls. No one complained of noise or my audibility even when I was in crowded places like airport etc. Its a must buy if you are looking for good call and music noise cancelling abilities. Not to forget they are very comfortable to wear for hours at a stretch.

I work in an office and take public transit nearly daily so when i say i need something to tune out the world i really do mean it. These headphones are insanely comfortably and effective at soing that! They look fantastic and they dont hurt my head after 6 straight hours of wear. Yes 6. I cannot stand my officemates most days and all i want to do is watch netflix in peace while i do my mindless work. This makes that possible! I didnt want to believe my partner (howdy) about how good the headphones were, tbh was gonna go for a different brand (sony ones caught my eye sorry got those too to “product test”) but ultimately in the RIGEROUS testing (literally just wearing them) the Bose 700’s blew all competition out of the water and hknestly stops me from hearing stupid shish my coworkers say which ultimately stops me from making a snarky comment. Its a win win for all. Get the headphones

Exactly as they promised! Different options for noise cancellation, very easy to navigate, and extremely comfortable for long use. The battery is fantastic, lasting a lot longer than expected, especially after turning them on and off a lot. I am extremely happy with this purchase!

Very Comfortable, great sound and noise cancelling. Excellent build quality and great fit, though if you have an unusually small head they may shift around when leaning forward or back or with rapid head movements. The Bose music app apparently needs to be updated for Android 13, and I have not been able to add these phones to the Bose Music app on my Pixel 6 running Android 13. Despite this the headset can be easily paired through Android's Settings app. I really like that 8 devices can be paired to these headphones, and they will use the first 2 active devices the headset finds after powering them on. Noise cacellation level can be adjusted, and temporarily pausing the noise cancelling and currently playing audio with the press of the left-side button is quite convenient. The touch controls work well and call quality is excellent on both sides of a call, as ambient noise is reduced rather well by the headset.

These headphones have been a true gift, and I bought them myself. I spend a lot of my day being social and outgoing, but when I get home I like to stay to myself and not socialize that much. The noise cancelling feature of these headphones allows me to feel by myself even if I am surrounded by people, and if someone is trying to talk to me I am able to adjust the noise cancelling effect to accommodate the situation. The sound quality is great as well, music is crisp and when I listen to a podcast or am on a call it sounds as if I am in a soundproofed studio. The battery life on the headphones is good, lasting a few hours between charges and it charges rather quick as well. The connection process is easy, and the Bose app works in addition to the headphones rather than being an annoying extra app on your phone. Overall, the headphones make for an intimate listening experience and are perfect for someone who wants to block out the world and be immersed in the listening endeavors and I cannot recommend it enough.

I purchased these headphones in order to be ready for a long flight. The 700s worked like a charm. The noise cancellation performed really well in reducing the noise during my 4 hour flight. It was light weight and very comfortable. The long battery life took away the stress of running out of power. Of course the most important feature of the headphones is that they sounded fantastic! I went through my eclectic playlists and found the sound reproduction to be great on all types of audio profiles (rock, R&B, dance and EDM).

Love my Bose headphones. Blue tooth connect works well. Sound and volume control are great. Battery life is great as well.

An upgrade from Bose QC35 with touch control and a sleaker look. Battery life is a good 20hrs which is plenty for me. The best feature is how clear when using voice call. Great for people who spend a lot of time on the phone. Noise Cancelation is also good plus you can control how much outside noise you want to hear. It’s very comfortable on the head but do get a little warm in hot weather. The app is a little unreliable and need to be fix since I’ve had a hard time connecting to the unit. .Overall a great headphones.

Look amazing, feel great, and the sound is exactly what you would expect from Bose. The sound cancelling is great, easy to sync up to multiple devices and manage with the app. Would buy again. As a matter of fact, this is my 4th set. (1 for my dad, 1 for a friend, 1 prior pair that went through the wash, then this one)
