Customer Ratings & Reviews

Did not like these. In fact, if the left ear is missing forget using these headphones at all. I think the problem is simply the inability to use when the other is not in. That’s weird. They are also huge!

the sound is magnificent and the noise cancellation is magnificent the best of all

Good sound and powerful function, but the quality is a bit unstable.

Before I even removed the earbuds case from its retail box, the quality was apparent. With the texture/finish of the box exterior and the padded interior of the upper box lid, I was impressed before they were even powered on. Connection to my phone was effortless. Open the Earbuds case, go to the Bluetooth menu of your phone and select “pair.” Done. This is my third pair of true wireless earbuds, and I can say without hesitation that these are the best sounding earbuds I have ever used. I’m listening to music I have known all my life (I’m 53) and hearing things for the first time. There’s multiple times over the past few days I’ve asked myself, “That’s always been there?” They sound terrific with any genre of music I have thrown at it. Rock, rap, R&B, pop. Heavy metal to classical. Even audiobooks sound great. For me, the most impressive quality of the sound is how clean the lows are. I’ve bounced back and forth between my previous-favorite earbuds and these Bose QuietComfort Earbuds, and in every instance, the Bose have a more pleasing, full, accurate sound. These earbuds are also capable of being the loudest set I own, but the sound is so clear that they don’t need to be. I don’t know how Bose did it, but even at low volume everything is crystal clear. I can’t say that about any other earbuds I own, wired or wireless. At any volume, it’s really shocking how much more detail and clarity these deliver. Everything sounds … right. If your TV supports it, I highly recommend pairing them with your television. I can enjoy my late-night action flick or video game and not keep the rest of the house up, and the dog doesn’t freak out with explosions and gunshots. I find myself wanting to use a lot of superlatives in this review, but they’re warranted. I have worn/used these earbuds for hours at a time, and while I won’t forget they’re there, they are easily the most comfortable earbuds I’ve used. My other sets have an in-ear design using what I consider to be the “normal” round, soft tips that seal tightly inside the ear canal, and they sound good and stay put, but they can get irritating after a short time using them. The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds have a soft (so soft!) silicone “nozzle” design that seals comfortably against the ear canal (as opposed to in it). The result is excellent isolation from outside sounds and wonderfully clear audio. If I had any complaint, it would be that the proper fit against the ear can initially be a little tricky to achieve. With practice, it’s now almost second nature. The noise cancelling is so appreciated. These don’t drown out the outside world, as has been my experience with other products. While I’m in the office trying to get some work done, I can put the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds on, and the world just goes away. There are 10 selectable levels of noise cancellation. With it set to 0, I can listen to music and still carry on a conversation with someone or hear what is going on around me. I can see this being a necessity, for example, if I’m out for a walk. I wouldn’t want to step off the curb in front of a car or get caught by surprise as someone approaches from behind on a bicycle. As I increase the noise cancellation setting (using either the touch controls of the earbuds or the Bose Music app), the world around me gradually fades to quiet. I’m using them right now without music, windows open, and the sound of my neighbor cutting the grass is all but inaudible. This is awesome! Paired with my phone, I can use the intuitive touch controls to start and stop my music, advance the track, access the phone digital assistant, initiate calls, end calls, and also decline an incoming call. You can also customize some of the functionality from within the Bose Music app. It’s easy to use and very versatile. In phone calls, sound quality is exceptional. I can more clearly hear the person on the other end of the call, and my wife tells me there’s less background noise when I talk to her while wearing these. I almost forgot the case. It’s how you charge your earbuds. It has five LEDs on the front that show you remaining charge and also charge progress if you’re plugged in via the USB C connection. The documentation says that it supports Qi charging mats, so if that’s your preferred charging method, Bose has you covered. I drop my earbuds in there while I’m not using them, and they’re always ready to go. And it’s still going strong off its initial charge! In summary, I love these earbuds. At any volume they sound amazing. The materials and finishes used exude premium quality. I would recommend them, without hesitation, to anyone looking for all-day comfort matched with incredible sound.

The product is amazing. But 14 days of purchase I dropped it and the cover latch broke. I have to use rubber bands to keep the lid closed. Any suggestions of this problem? Please help

Connectivity issues; kept getting interrupted from my other devices that were linked

Not really good with holding a charge. Not that comfortable in the ear.

Absolutely the BEST PAIR. Very comfortable. The sound is incredible. You won’t regret buying these! It’s worth every penny!!!

Lasted a year before the left headphone started blinking / won’t charge. Regularly cleaned ( case and headphones ). No mic ( as far as I can tell they don’t work with calls ). Disappointing for the price, unfortunately.

Perfect brand and price as well the quality nothing can beat Bose product!

Bought on 12/30 everything works perfect no issues. 12/31 right earbud stops working doesn’t connect when put in charging case.

Bose makes the best audio products. For years I've been buying speakers and headphones since the early 90's.

Excellent, I love my bose. I will recommend it to my friends.

I LOVE IT the best bose is the #1 thanks the sound is awesome

I've used Bose products for many years. The sound quality in this price point is unmatched in my opinion. Of course the Active Noise Cancelling is one of the best on the market. Having multiple modes of ANC and pass through was very useful on my recent flights to be able to drown out the sound, but then switch mode when an announcement came on. Back to the sound quality. The highs are very crisp without leaving a ping in your ears. Mids are very present without drowning out the other ranges, and are incredibly dynamic depending on if you're listening to music or a podcast. The bass was a bit lacking at first, however the Bose app and my phone both had EQ options that remedied this easily. The fit out of the box worked well for me with the size 1 earpiece. There are other sizes included to fit every ear and they hold very steadily during long walks and workouts. The charging case has substantially improved over the older models that I've used. After a full case charge, I've been able to charge the earbuds about 10 times to full until having to recharge the case. Overall, I would highly recommend these for anyone that is looking for clear sound and the best ANC for a moderate price.

Bose Quality sucks. Just got these on Dec 11th 2021 and they are dead. I either have to send them to Bose and wait for 3 to 6 weeks or pay another $50 for the 2 yrs extended warranty. They just blink red and white... "Internal Error" they won't reset and won't link. Waste of money... This is like my 3rd set in 12 months.

Personally i expected more quality from a Boss product.

These have to be one of the best EarBuds i have in my collection and i have a nice collection. The Noise Cancellation on these work great. I have to say these are the only EarBuds i have been able to use when mowing the yard and still hear the music clear and without all the mower noise. They are a great fit in the ear not heavy. There are 3 sizes of ear buds that lock in your ear for a great stay in fit. Not having the buttons on the earbuds are nice because with this small size of earbuds the buttons are even smaller. These are touch controlled to pause play skip pick up call and end calls. You can set up to 3 favorite presets for noise cancellation and volume. The Bose App will show you the battery life on each of the buds. These have to be one of the best sounds they have a great deep bass sound great rich sound i will really enjoy the use of these. This night be the last pair i get unless Bose makes another updated pair.

Purchased late Dec. 2021. After 1 week of 1-2 hours use daily: +Fits very well in my ear +Not heavy but I feel them +Really like wings for more secure fit +Active ANC is amazing (haven't used on plane yet) +When putting buds in case it clicks and buds LED light comes on so I know it's charging (PowerBeats Pro has had some misses here) +Not an audiophile but sound seems very good when connected to iPad Pro and Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ +App is okay; ANC level adjustment seems to get varied results but I haven't been in very noisy locations to fully test +Buds announce what device you're connected to and the battery level (have only used at "Full" battery level so unsure of message for lower levels) Cons: -No multipoint connection -Controlling volume via touch takes getting used to; still feels hit or miss and volume changes quite a bit Regular price feels high but did purchase on sale. Call quality seems okay. Seems a bit digital on other end. Haven't used in noisy environment so I don't know how external sounds impact quality. Some complaints about size of case. It would be awkward to carry in pants pocket but I keep in my laptop bag. Also have PowerBeats Pro and that's also a big case so I'm used to it.

Bose - QuietComfort Noise Cancelling Earbuds – True Wireless In-Ear Headphones with Bluetooth Summary: BOSE quality audio ear buds with excellent noise cancellation capability. Pros: * Sound quality. The sound quality is excellent across the spectrum of frequency. The bass is comfortable and definitely "fills the room." I can easily get into a groove. * Excellent fit. I feel like these achieve better sound quality than my former Apple Airpods which always required me maneuvering them deep and tight into my ears. The Bose earbuds just fit - insert and rotate. Done. * Noise cancellation is eerie! It works extremely well! While working and I'm typing away on my computer I sometimes do double-takes. I can feel the keys give way under my fingers, but I don't hear the clickity-clack at all (I have the typomatic sounding keyboard). I didn't think I'd appreciate that, but noise cancellation definitely allows for better immersion. * Battery life is good. I place my accessories on recharge probably more frequently than I should. I've listened in a single session about 4 hours and I've seen that bring the buds down to 40-60% depending on interruption, volume, noise cancellation setting selected, etc. 6 might indeed be real. * Awesome case. I know it looks bulky compared to Apple Airpod case. But its functional, shows clear charging status and capacity, and is Qi inductive charging capable. Mighty fine. I also like that there is a hard clasp to keep case shut. Also, it has a hardwired port for charging - USB C - which is also great. * Microphones work well. I can take calls and hold meetings with these earbuds with no problems. They seem to be clearer (for those on the other end) than my Airpods. Cons: * Size. The size isn't bad, but they feel bulky. Time will tell if it will be a problem. Right now it seems like the removable fittings will keep the earbuds in place securely. * Mobile app. The application works well, but I feel the UI awkward or inconsistent. One bug: you can pair units to several devices. I have my computer and my iPhone. The app shows both. But even though it shows a toggle to disconnect from your phone, once you do that it disconnects... duh! So you can't toggle on the other device. So, you have to disconnect from device A first, and then manually connect device B. Not a big deal, but also not sure why the UI pretends to allow you to switch between devices in the first place. Use: I used these while working (from home), conducting conference calls, and also while playing computer games on-the-down-low. I also have a BOSE Soundlink and my car has BOSE audio as well. I feel like the quality of audio from these products surpasses that of other products I own (such as SONOS Ones). I figured why not check out their earbuds. They definitely let me get into the groove and I am excited to found great replacements for my previous earbuds which seemed to have too many problems holding a charge or inconsistently reporting *accurate* charge or maintaining stereo pairing. I highly recommend these particularly if you're not locked into a particular vendor's ecosystem.
