    These headphones work well with my Apple products. I had to turn off the auto stop feature because it was very sensitive with head movement. The battery life is great.

    I wish the controls on the headphones were easier to use, but the sound and noise canceling are good.

    These live up to the hype for me. I personally very much enjoy the sound stage. Phone call quality is amazingly good. As Flossy Carter would say the noise canceling is God level good!

    Really impressed with this version of Bose. The noise cancelling is vastly improved from the pair I bought several years ago. And the immersive sound is next level. Happy with my purchase.

    Good sound but TERRIBLE microphone!

    Great Sound but incredibly terrible microphones still! The microphones cannot hear you outdoors if you’re trying to text or dictate anything on your phone it literally types the wrong words all the time. If you’re somewhere where it’s windy the noise cancellation doesn’t even work! The wind blows on the microphones and you hear it inside your headset so you cannot hear what you’re listening to! They’ve always had problems with the microphone but I figured the generation 2 was going to be better like everyone said it was going to be. I’m returning these and getting a headset that doesn’t have crap microphones. Their microphones basically have zero noise cancellation of their own. Also when the headset talks to you it sounds like a malfunctioning robot that’s whispering it’s so low you can barely hear it. Especially if it’s a notification of any kind. I’m shocked how bad it is for this amount of money.

    Comfortable cans but lacking software

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    These are probably the most comfortable cans you can get at the moment with the best ANC, best the software/firmware is its pitfall. One thing no reveiwers have mentioned is that while the ANC is at full strength when you first put on the headphones, it gradually decreases or as you would put it auto-ANC. This also happens when you take off the headset and put it back on. If you toggle the different modes within Bose apps, ANC will be back at full strength again, only for it to gradually decline and you can start hearing the noise. This "auto-ANC" feature is definitely one thats not desirable and can't be turned off.
