Customer Ratings & Reviews

Ive had these Quiet Comfort buds for about 2 weeks now. I love them! Amazing ANC, comfortable, doesnt fall out and volume is loud enough! Some people have mentioned connection issues. Ive had it happen once where i had to place them back in case to get them to pair. 1 time I can live with! I work construction and so far they havent fallen out and battery lasts almost an entire workday! I also purchased the Sony wf 1000xm5 buds at the same time as the QC’s and after using both extensively the win goes to Bose QC. Im returning the Sony’s. Dont get me wrong, the Sony wf 1000xm5 are amazing buds. Packed with tons of features and audio is amazing, but they just wont sit right in my ears, so not only does this affect comfort, it affects ANC. So far no regrets with the Bose! If there’s an issue, we’ll see how Bose customer service is.

I’m really impressed with these earbuds! The sound quality is crystal clear, with strong bass and balanced tones that make music and calls enjoyable. They fit comfortably and stay in place, even when I’m moving around, which is a big plus. The battery life lasts a long time, and the charging case makes it super convenient to keep them powered up on the go. Pairing was quick and easy, and the connection is stable without any dropouts. Overall, these earbuds are stylish, practical, and deliver excellent value for the price. Highly recommend!

Amazing sound quality and incredible noise cancelling. Super comfortable to wear for hours, and the fit is perfect. Calls are clear, battery lasts long, and the case charges fast. Best earbuds I’ve ever owned!

I want to like these. They sound pretty good (not QC Ultra or Airpods Pro good, but better than anything from Anker at least), the ANC is close-to-Ultra great, and they're so comfortable that I can sleep on them all night. However, I have several problems with connectivity and battery life. The buds would disconnect completely after about an hour of use. They simply go dead and you have to long-press them to turn them back on. Also, the battery life doesn't last as long as advertised. After one of those post-hour disconnections, I checked the charge level on the buds, and they were down to 70%. This is with volume at 10%, ANC on, flat EQ, baseline settings. Maybe I got a faulty unit. I want to like these buds, but they need to work out the bugs.

The Bose QuietComfort True Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds are simply phenomenal. The comfort is unmatched—I can wear them for hours without any irritation. The sound quality is beautifully balanced: deep, punchy bass with crisp highs and smooth mids that bring music, podcasts, and calls to life. The noise cancelling is incredible. It creates a calm, focused space no matter where I am—perfect for commuting or studying. Call quality is excellent, and my voice comes through clearly even in crowded places. With great battery life and a sleek design, these feel like a true premium experience. Bose nailed it.

These Bose earbuds are incredible! The sound quality is crystal clear with deep bass and perfect balance. Noise cancellation works amazingly well, even in loud places. They fit comfortably and stay secure, even during workouts. Battery life is solid, and the quick charge feature is super convenient. Definitely worth the price — Bose never disappoints!

Great sound quality, noise cancelling works really well, holds a long charge. Only problem is the touch controls can be pretty finicky, the buds will pause over nothing and disconnect pretty frequently

I am still learning them but so far, they have been great. The sound is seriously like no other. When both are in, they give a true "Surround Sound" feeling. Download the apps so you can customize them to your liking which was also an added plus. And the comfort. Although very comfortable, the comfort is average. They do not fall out when working out honestly that's about it. I was very underwhelmed with the packinging. I was expecting a sleek blacked out box with a raised "Bose". It is far from that. The case. Very lightweight which is both beneficial and problematic. Pro: Easy to carry and takes up minimal space. Con: If you drop the case, your pods are rolling everywhere. I don't know if it's the magnet but overall, the case gives flimsy. Lastly, the fact that I cannot track my pods is crazy.

The Bose QuietComfort Gen 2 has successfully addressed several issues found in its predecessor, the QC Ultra, making it a standout in the premium earbuds market. Here's a breakdown of the key improvements and overall performance: 1. Enhanced Multi-Point Connectivity One of the most significant upgrades is the 100% improvement in multi-point connectivity. The QC Gen 2 finally fixes the persistent pairing issues between laptops and cell phones that plagued previous models like the QC Ultra. Now, switching between devices is seamless, making it a much more user-friendly experience. Additionally, the inclusion of a wireless charging option is a convenient and modern touch. 2. Top-Tier Noise Cancelling When it comes to noise cancellation, the QC Gen 2 is near the level of its top-tier sibling, the QC Ultra. It effectively cancels out both low and high-end noise, making it ideal for various environments. Whether you’re on a busy street or in a quiet room, the noise cancellation delivers impressive results. 3. Improved Audio Quality The audio quality has also seen noticeable improvements. Each instrument is now clearly distinguishable, giving users a richer listening experience. Whether you're a music enthusiast or just looking for clear, detailed sound during calls, the QC Gen 2 delivers on both fronts. 4. Superior Microphone Performance Another major enhancement is the new microphone, which performs much better during calls in noisy environments. It picks up voices clearly while minimizing background noise, making it ideal for business professionals or anyone who frequently takes calls on the go. 5. Price and Design Trade-offs One minor downside is the bulky case, which feels a bit cheap. However, given the $180 price tag, it’s understandable that Bose may have cut costs in certain areas. For the overall performance and features packed into the earbuds, this trade-off is reasonable. Conclusion Overall, the Bose QuietComfort Gen 2 earbuds are a fantastic choice, especially when compared to competitors like the iPhone Earbuds Gen 4, Sony Linbucks S, or Jabra 10 Elite. Despite the slightly cheap-feeling case, the improvements in connectivity, noise cancellation, audio quality, and microphone performance make these earbuds an excellent value for the price. Highly recommended!

What can I say? It's a Bose. The battery life excellent. Sound awesome. Very comfortable for hours and it won't fall off. All pros and no cons. Be sure to try out all eartips because there's only one that is perfect for your ears.

Bose CQ earbuds fit really good and doesn't fallout during my physically active day at work. Long battery life to get me thru the day before needing a recharge. Charge case is a bit large for my liking but maybe its cause of the battery size it has in it. Able to charge earbuds about 3 times. Sound is amazing! Customizing the sound to my liking is so easy to do. Button function took me awhile to understand and get used to, but after awhile it was pretty simple. For the price of these earbuds, you cant go wrong.

Let me preface this by saying I am an audiophile and love music. These are the best Bluetooth earbuds I've heard for under 300$. The noise cancelling is on par with other earbuds around this price. What separates these from the others is the true sound they have. It's not muddy. At all volumes its a pure sound. Would recommend to anyone. The only knock on the star is the fact that the case feels on the cheaper side compared to others at this price point. That is a fair trade off for the quality in sound. Battery life is great. Comfort is next level. If you feel they hurt at first, just stick with it a couple days and you will get used to them. They have an extra rubber that really helps hold them in and keep the sounds on point.

I’ve been using Bose earbuds for a while, and overall, they’ve lived up to their reputation. The sound quality is rich and well-balanced, with deep bass and clear highs—perfect for both music and calls. Noise cancellation is excellent, blocking out most background chatter and even city traffic. The fit is comfortable for long use, though they feel a bit bulky compared to some competitors. Battery life is decent, but not the longest in the market. The case is sturdy but slightly larger than I’d prefer. Overall, they’re premium earbuds that shine in audio performance and comfort, but portability could be better.

Like the sound quality. The battery has good battery life, stay in ear well and don't get ear fatigue.

They're great ear buds with great battery but for me it lands the depth and crispy sound I'm looking for. Its silent mode is dope and they fit well I would recommend this for someone that need a good pair of ear buds thats not super expensive so yeah give these a shot

My earbuds fit well and the charge lasts for as long as I need. I am content with them, The noise canceling I think is reasonable for earbuds. If I wanted more noise canceling over the ear would be what I would buy next. I use them outside walking and inside the gym.

“Great earbuds with clear sound, strong bass, good noise cancellation, and long battery life. Comfortable fit and easy controls make them perfect for daily use.”

Love the sound and the fit. The case is cute and charge last a long time.

These just replaced my Sony XM5 earbuds mainly for the secure and comfortable fit and not having to deal with the foam ear tips. Pros: sound, comfort, secure fit, wireless charging, price, very effective noise cancelling, promise of spacial audio. Cons: Strong wind noise seems to be prevalent on Boise earbuds including these which keeps me from using these for biking, etc. I would think Bose would have wind noise figured out by now since they are king of noise cancellation for the most part. Battery life does not seem to be as good as listed even at less than half volume. And the left earbud proximity sensor can be finicky with certain ears like mine if not placed a certain way. Making sure to place the back of the left earbud upward instead of downward seems to fix the issue. This is probably how they are intended to sit in the ear and probably not an issue for many but other reviewers have had the same issue.
