    really really BAD static on airplane take off. So uncomfortable it hurts the ears... other than that they were great. I happen to fly a lot so this missed the mark, considering the price point.

    Love these overall but after having read reviews, disappointed they’re a little too big. Chose them because they were recommended for smaller heads. I need to research ways to mitigate this-hoping I’ll figure out something.

      Hello, It's awesome to hear that you feel these sound excellent. These headphones should have a battery life of upto 22 hours, so it is unusual to hear you don't feel you got enough charge.
      We understand you have returned them, however, if you decide to purchase again you can find guidance here to ensure you get the best battery life possible bose.life/3RtiKb6

    Great headphones. Even better when purchased on sale. Use them to watch movies and listen to music. Good sound quality and noise cancelling. Very easy to connect to my phone and PC. The mobile app is not necessary to use the headphones, although the rudimentary EQ functionality is only available through the app.

    Do yourself a favor and buy the Sony XM4s

    If you are going to spend this much money on headphones, get the XM4s. The app is 1000x better and you can adjust the sound settings to your liking and their sound potential is infinitely better than the QC45s...... Will be returning these as soon as possible. (Only) Pros: comfortable and easy to use... (Many) Cons: they sound terrible... typical Bose headphone sound - adequate highs, over pronounced "clear" midrange and absolutely no bass (embarrassingly little bass). If you have an Android, you can use the built in equalizer to make them sound slightly better, but if you have an iPhone you are pretty much stuck with the terrible out-of-box sound and whatever preset sound settings Apple provides. I question whether or not the Bose engineers even listened to these before they finished production. Wasn't expecting a whole lot considering it's Bose, but wanted to give them another chance and they dropped the ball in a big way... The app is pointless. If they would add an equalizer I'd be able to understand why it would be (very) necessary to use the app, but since there is no equalizer, there is no point to the app. All the app does is tell you the battery life and allows you to toggle between noise canceling modes (only modes are on and off...). That's it. That's all the app does. All of this can be done on the actual headphones. There is no auto-pause when you take the headphones off, no speak-to-chat function, no notification alerts or anything of the sort. All of which the Sony XM4s have (along with infinitely better sound, I cannot stress that enough) at the same price point. In conclusion, if you just want people to know you spend too much money on name brand headphones and don't care if they sound terrible, these headphones are for you. BOSE - Better Off (with) Something Else - has never rung more true.
