Customer Ratings & Reviews

These have to be one of the best, if not the best, noise canceling earbuds out there! I commute via the loud local transit system daily and I absolutely cannot do that commute without these. Active noise canceling works extremely well and blocks out 99% of the screeching train ride. Then there's the "Aware" mode when you need to hear your surroundings. The battery life is really great, the earbuds are extremely comfortable and stay in place with a great fit. I'm not audiophile, but the audio quality is great in my experience, even though it's Bluetooth. Speaking of Bluetooth there are rarely any hiccups or oddities in that front. I've used Sony and Google earbuds and both would have stutters and connection issues, but those are non existent with these Bose earbuds! 5/5

The Bose QCU 2nd gen are an awesome pair of bluetooth buds. I've had so many different brands of wireless buds and have liked most of them, but I've only loved a few, and these are in that few group. The Bose QCU is their premium buds set for a reason and when you hear your favorite music or videos through them you'll fall in love with them too. Off the bat its Bose so you're getting their premium sound quality and drivers. This is amplified with customized audio tuning to your hearing specifications and spatial immersive audio for a 360° surround sound experience. The sound quality is just so good and only comparable to another set I loved, the Sony XM5. The strongest feature is the noise canceling, its the best I've experienced so far, I mean I've tried Samsung, Sennheiser, Beats, Jabra, Sony, and the Bose QCU 2nd generation are the absolute best when it comes to noise canceling. Once activated I couldn't hear anything, which was excellent for when I wanted to lock in and focus while listening to my music. Connecting is easy and all your customization settings are handled through the new Bose app. In box is a USB-c charge cable and different size fitment buds. The set is rated IPX4 so its good for light rain sweat protection. I never had the 1st generation of the QCU so I can't say how much they've improved over a gen but I can say they are the same dimensions and Bose offers a silicon protection case, but you can also use 1st gen cases as well. Overall, I absolutely love the Bose QCU 2nd gen wireless set and I absolutely recommend them if you want the best music listening experience.

Bose mever disappoints me. And these earbuds are no exception. Souns quality is superb, extremely comfortable, you don't notice them in your ear like other ear buds. Nor do they fall out easily.

The Bose Ultra QuietComfort Earbuds are without a doubt the best investment I've made in personal audio. These "beauties" are absolutely packed with the best sound quality, robust bass, crystal-clear call quality, and what I consider to be top-tier Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). Truly, they were worth every single penny. ​Performance and Features ​The ANC alone makes these indispensable, especially during travel—they've become a conversation starter on every flight, with the person sitting next to me often asking about them. ​Beyond the noise-cancelling, the Immersive Audio or Cinema features are game-changers. They genuinely transport you to a different dimension of sound, making music and movies feel incredibly spacious and dynamic. ​The Small Trade-Off ​My only wish is that the battery life could last longer than six hours. However, Bose has mitigated this well: a quick 20-minute charge provides an additional two hours of power, perfectly covering my full eight-hour workday. ​If you are looking to treat yourself to the best earbuds on the market right now, I highly recommend the Bose Ultra QuietComfort Earbuds.

I purchased these for my Samsung s24 ultra and they did not work. I returned the first pair got a 2nd and did the same thing. I had the 1st gen and absolutely loved them but the gen 2 wouldn’t connect to the Samsung. With me using headphones for 8-10 hours a day I knew that I had to figure something out because they were the only earbuds that fit good and sounded good with Amazon noise canceling. I discovered they worked perfectly fine on apple devices so I went out and switched to iPhone the next day and they work perfect. As a Samsung guy I will say it was worth the switch to have them work as they should but it also kinda sucked that I had to in the first place.

I had a pair of the first gen Bose Quiet Comfort II earbuds and I was happy with them, good bass, good sound cancellation, and good sound overall. I use them mostly for music, rarely phone conversations. Unfortunately one of them got dropped and stepped on while visiting a relative over the Christmas holiday. It was damaged beyond repair. Best Buy had the newest version, the Ultra 2nd gen buds, on sale and I had some rewards to use so I bit the bullet and splurged on a gift for myself. I’m glad I did. This latest version has much better sound cancellation and other features that surpass the previous version. One of those features is far better connectivity, particularly when switching between my iPad and my iPhone. I also have a pair of the latest Apple AirPods Pro. They’re good too, but without a doubt, these Bose QC Ultra earbuds blow the AirPods away. Much better bass and noise cancellation. So, if you’re looking for high performance earbuds, the Bose Ultra earbuds are much better than the previous version and the Apple AirPods Pro, by far. Expensive, yes. But worth every dollar if you appreciate good quality sound.

Fits well in ear, superior sound quality, great battery life, does everything I need it to and more

These are comfortable and seem fit in ear very well. The sound quality is fantastic! The noise canceling is the best I’ve ever used in an earbud and have owned several “higher end” brands. The only “downsides” I’ve experienced are the app to connect to the buds can be finicky and these do not charge wirelessly. If the app was more seamless and there was wireless charging, it would have been 5 stars.

If you have long hair the touch in them is sensitive so it can pause the music along with if you like wearing a hoodie when working out. I use a hat to fix that issue or else it will be pausing all the time. The sound and quality is great and definitely noise canceling. Easy to connect. Battery is great.

Excellent sound quality and great intuitive controls. I've never heard music in this way before, and I couldn't recommend these earbuds any more highly. The battery life on these earbuds is fantastic too. I can go days without recharging thanks to the power bank of the case they come in. My ears aren't in pain when I have them in for a few hours, unlike a few competitors. Overall, the best earbuds I've ever owned.

Audio quality, battery life, comfort, ease of use, all a 10 out of 10. Love the noise cancellation as well.

They come partially charged. As soon as I put them in my ear for the 1st time, they went into a noise canceling phase. It was the best noise/ambient sound canceling I've ever experienced. The sound and bass are great, crisp, and powerful. There is an equalizer in app to adjust what you want. The fit is great, they stay in my ears during jumping rope and anything else I've been doing with them in. The touch controls work great! Tap the buds to pause, and slide finger up and down to turn volume up and down. The only disappointment is the battery life isn’t as long as I'd like. They last a while just not as long as I'd like. I've had the Status 3NC buds and those have the best battery life Ive ever come across.

Thought the ear buds will be too big for my ears. It fits just right. I shook my head side to side, back and forth and the buds didn’t fall out. I like that it can connect to multiple devices. The anc are great on filtering out background sound. I’m happy with my purchase

Probably would give 5 stars, but one super minor issue, on startup a little computer lady mumbles some model number or something in your ear each time, which is annoying. Not very serious though. Sound quaility is good, but noise cancellation is great for ear buds. You cannot hear someone talking in a normal voice behind you. If you have other bose products, sound quality is similar, they sound good at all ranges from lows to highs but not amazing in any. Better bass than mose earbuds. If you put them on correctly by rotating them into your ear they fit suprisingly comfortably with no ear fatigue after an hour of wearing. If you are looking for good sound quality and great noise cancelation in an earbud, these are great for the price!

I purchased the XM1000XM6 Earbuds and the ANC on those were next level. I ended up returning those and purchased the Bose QC2 based upon the call quality. The fit is perfect it wont fall out of your ears and the bass is impressive.

I recently purchased this Bose Earbuds from Best Buy, and I’m very satisfied with the quality and performance. The sound is clear on both calls and meetings, and the microphone picks up my voice very well without background noise. It’s also very comfortable to Ears for long hours while working from home or attending virtual meetings.

I purchased these to replace my aging Sony WF1000XM3 ear buds which were no longer holding a charge. I'm impressed the sound quality and noise cancelling which are both far better than my old pair. The bass especially is impressive for a pair of earbuds. The fit is comfortable and and I have no issues wearing them for 3-4 hours on flights or while working. The immersive audio modes are also impressive, but I prefer to just use the standard listening mode. Voice quality for calls seems similar to my old pair. The They probably don't compete with a headset, but for the form factor these are the best buds I've ever used.

Outstanding sound, as usual, with Bose. This is the third pair of Ultra Earbuds I've owned. The first two were first gen, and the most current pair are second gen. They're built to last as I'm brutal on them in the gym. The only issue I have with Gen 2 is they've made some structural design changes making them slightly less secure when wearing them -- especially in active scenarios. I still highly recommend them, but prefer the fit of Gen 1.

I love these so much better than the first gen. They stay securely in my ears. I'm a bass head so Bose work well. The bass is deep, which makes me really happy. The clarity is amazing. The app leaves a bit to be desired because it can be unstable, with the earbuds not connecting as they should.

These headphones have been extremely comfortable and the sound quality have been amazing. The fit is perfect for my ears
