Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bose really out did themselves this time! Here’s my rankings: audio quality: 10/10, noise cancelling: 10/10, battery life: 10/10, durability: 9/10, setup: 9/10, connectivity: 9.5/10, user friendly: 9.5/10, appearance: 9.5/10. If you’re worried about the sound quality, don’t be. Bose does it best and the new immersive mode is something you have never truly experienced before! Again, worth every penny!

Coming from the second gen QC45, these are a great upgrade. The battery life is significantly improved! I used to have to rechard my 45's daily to every to every other day. Once I got the Ultra 2's, the battery life it shipped with, 80%, lasted me four days! They are comfortable on my big head and the sound quality had improved quite a bit. The noise cancelling is significantly better and no weird pressure feeling! These were expensive, but worth the money. Another positive is I can be connected to my PC and Phone at the same time and I don't get the crackling I used to get with my old ones when connected to two sources.

Bose QuietComfort Headphones are great quality, comfortable, and have a great battery. I can go weeks without charging them and they quickly charge! These are my second pair of QuietComfort Headphones and they are amazing. The sound and noise cancellation are great, the different sound modes help you get immersed in the sound.

Amazing headphones, I go about 3 days sometimes 5 without having to charge them so the battery life is really good with aware mode constantly on. The ear pads are very soft and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and the bass is by far the best I've ever tried in headphones.

The sound quality is impeccable; these headphones are extremely comfortable, both on the head and on the ears. The battery life is robust and long-lasting. I proudly recommend this product to anyone looking for a state-of-the-art pair of headphones.

Excellent purchase. Great fit and sound quality. They are lightweight love the color. Long lasting charge.

A lightweight, comfortable headphone with great mid range and active noise cancellation that rivals other premium headphones. The 2nd gen ultra comfort truly is an upgrade compared to the 1st gen in terms of battery, software and better balanced mid range sound. In terms of comfort, it is the same, if not more softer to wear compared to the previous gen. Highly recommend this product if you wear glasses, as the clamp downs aren’t tight like the Sony XM06 or other brands.

Excellent noise suppression. I can't believe how good my Spotify and Podcasts sound. Will be a MAJOR improvement on my international plane flights this year. The ear pieces fit comfortably over my ears and are extremely comfortable. Love the upgraded battery life.

Main reason I purchased these headphones was because of noise cancellation. They are fantastic so far and the battery life is great I’ve used them for about 3-4 hrs a day and haven’t needed to recharge in 3 days and still have 70% battery life left. They are lightweight compared to other brands and very easy to use. Very happy with this purchase and would recommend.

The Bose headset looks sleek and stylish, and the sound quality is excellent. What really stands out is the noise cancellation—it works incredibly well and makes a huge difference, especially in busy or loud environments. Overall, it’s comfortable, great-sounding, and well worth it.

Overall: The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are a strong contender for anyone looking for top-tier active noise cancellation and comfortable, immersive listening. They’re a great option for frequent travelers or folks who want to drown out office noise. These are definitely geared toward people who don’t mind spending a bit more to enjoy a premium audio experience. They’re not ideal for gym use, though, since they don’t have a rating for sweat or water resistance. They also lack wireless charging, which a lot of other headphones include at this price point. Sound Quality: The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 delivers crisp, detailed audio with deep bass and clean highs. The sound signature is classic Bose: warm and balanced with a boosted low end, making them great for music, movies, or just about anything else. While a little flatter than some other headphones, you’re not going to get studio-reference sound here. USB-C lossless audio is a standout feature, offering higher fidelity than standard Bluetooth codecs. These are best paired with a streaming service that supports lossless audio, since compressed tracks won’t really show off what this headset can do. That said, the in-app EQ is super basic, and there’s no way to deeply customize the sound profile. For most users, Bose’s tuning will be more than fine, but those who like to tweak every frequency might be left wanting more. Active Noise Cancellation: This is where Bose blows most other headphones out of the water. The ANC is incredibly effective, easily muting road noise, office chatter, and of course, plane engines. Bose’s CustomTune tech adapts ANC to your ears every time you wear them, and it works brilliantly. If ANC is your top priority, these won’t disappoint. I promise. Other Sound Features: Along with ANC, you get a BeAware mode, which lets sound in so you can hear your surroundings if needed. The amount of noise cancellation is also adjustable, which is a nice touch. Immersive mode is another cool feature. Geared more toward movie content than music, it lets the sound follow your head movements. It’s basically 3D audio that shifts with your position. There are two modes: one for sitting and one for standing. Give them a shot. I found it pretty cool, but since I mostly listen to music, I kept it off for the most part. Bose also includes a new Cinema mode, which blends immersive audio with noise cancellation to really pull you into whatever you’re watching. It’s a fun feature for video content, and I recommend trying it out. Just keep in mind it drains the battery a bit faster. Connectivity: The headphones support Bluetooth 5.4, USB-C audio, and a 2.5mm analog cable. I had no issues pairing them with my iPhone. Plenty of audio codecs are supported, including SBC, AAC, and aptX, plus the lossless version of aptX. Long story short, these are going to sound great on basically any device you pair them with. And if you want the ultimate sound quality, you can always wire them in via USB-C for lossless audio. Comfort: The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are comfortable, but not quite as comfortable as some of the previous Bose models I’ve owned. Maybe they’re still breaking in, but I’m hoping they get a bit more forgiving over time. I have a large head, and the clamping force feels a little strong right now. I also have to extend them to the largest setting to fit properly, but that’s true for most headphones I own. Battery Life: Battery life is good, but not great. You’ll get 30 hours with ANC off and 24 hours with ANC on. That’s more than enough for long flights or workdays, but it falls short compared to some other comparable headphones. There’s also an auto-shutoff feature that’s worked flawlessly whenever I take them off, and a low-power mode that helps preserve battery when not in use. Sadly, wireless charging isn’t supported, but USB-C fast charging is included. Design: The design is classy and modern, with polished metal accents and a dark black finish. The build is mostly plastic with some metal, which keeps the weight down without feeling cheap. The included faux-leather carrying case is a nice touch and stores the headphones securely. Pros: Industry-leading ANC Crisp Bose sound Quality build USB-C lossless audio Classy and modern design Comes with carrying case and cables Cons: Expensive Limited EQ customization No wireless charging No IP rating for water or sweat resistance

I love always Bose for the voice quality and always been a big fan of Bose. This headphone is simply amazing and everything I wanted from head phone, this one has it. So comfortable and light weight I can wear them all day long. Thanks Best Buy to have all the great products across different brands. Awesome headphones. Love them so very much.

I may have a biased review because I've been a fan of BOSE for a very long time. Once again, Bose delivered with the QC Ultra 2. Sound quality is excellent, fit and comfort are great, noise cancelling is excellent. Battery life has been excellent so far and I have no issues. I'm very happy with my purchase.

My choices really fought between the Bose QC Ultra 2nd Gen and the Sennheiser HDB 630. Since my application was mostly taking meetings, having that mic super clear was of higher priority for me. But man, the audio quality is great, and as its name suggests, they are really comfortable. The Noise cancellation is so good, it feels weird, it sometimes gets quieter than a quiet room. You need to experience it to know what I am talking about.

Love everything about them, sound comfort and the battery life.

I am so happy and thrilled that I bought the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra. Very light weight and so comfortable to wear that’s A+. I’ve been using the AirPods Pro for years which I had to replace couple of times and very heavy on ear which I wasn’t pleased at all. I would recommend the Bose headphones.

Sound quality is excellent and very comfortable. The batter life last me for a long time without charging. I love the headphones and will buy as a gift for a family member too!

Amazing comfort, class-leading noise cancellation, and rich, balanced sound. Spatial audio makes movies and music feel more immersive without sounding fake. Battery life is solid and you can wear these for hours with zero fatigue. If you want premium ANC headphones that simply deliver — these are worth every dollar.

Nice headphones works great for canceling noise besides working as headphones. Soft, compact, comfortable, great sound. Perfect for shutting out the outside world or listening to music without disturbing others. Works great with my I-phone & iPad too. I love the color. Battery lasts a long time & its easy to recharge.

These headphones are amazing! They are extremely comfortable, the noise cancellation is amazing and the sound is very good. I am not someone who is overly picky about what the audio sounds like, so I will admit that I am easily pleased there. If you are someone who wants a bit more depth to the music, you may want a different set of headphones, but I think these are perfect for a casual listener just looking to block out the noise. I can wear these for hours and have never had any discomfort.
