These headphones are the best noise cancelling ones I've had. Much better than the apple AirPods max because the bose are lighter and more comfortable. I always trust bose when it comes to speakers and headphones and have yet to be disappointed. They're perfect for studying helping cut out background noise.

Overall product is well built, it's biggest advantage against competitors like Sony xm6 is it's simply more comfortable. On top of having a bit more appealing designs. Compared to the previous generation not much a difference only added mode in the app.

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen) takes everything great about the QC line and turns it up a notch. The CustomTune and Immersive Audio modes create a true 3D soundstage that feels natural, not gimmicky. Active noise cancellation is still industry-leading, but now transitions more smoothly with adjustable aware levels.
The Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity is rock-solid , instant pairing and multipoint support work flawlessly between my phone and laptop. Battery life averages around 24 hours per charge, and a quick 15-minute top-up gives several hours of playback. The touch and physical control combo is intuitive, and the redesign feels lighter yet sturdier.
For audiophiles and everyday listeners alike, the QC Ultra 2nd Gen delivers a premium experience with class-leading comfort and sound accuracy. Bose once again sets the bar for wireless noise-cancelling headphones.

I've tried all major brands of the higher-end headphones. I've concluded Bose beats all! The Bose app is easy to use and helpful. I had a 6 hr trainride and these performed beautifully for Classical music and an audio book. They're also comfortable for long wear.

Love these headphones. Replaced an original set of wired bose qc headphones with these and I'm very happy with them. Sound quality is phenomenal. Charge could last a bit better, but if vibing out with vibe tunes, this is what you need.

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.
Hey there! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, we truly appreciate your honest feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the sound quality, but we're sorry to learn about the frustration you've had with the microphone performance and voice prompts.
The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) are designed to deliver world-class noise cancellation and immersive audio, personalized through CustomTune technology to match the unique shape of your ears. That said, microphone performance can be affected by several factors, especially in challenging environments like windy conditions.

Great headphone with great sound. Nothing else beats it in my opinion. It’ll be money worth spending. Don’t hesitate just buy it and dive deep into the irresistible bose sound

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.

Great sound - like the cinema mode. I wish they had something like the Sony xm6 where you could cup the phone and hear conversations without taking them off or hear that you or someone is speaking and adjust the ANC.

Overall sound quality is good as always. They improved slightly but not fan of this glossy part that looks like it is going to scratch well. I have owned every pair of Bose QC series and they improve ANC quiet bit. No issue with this auto off feature one person complained. You can adjust EQ so no need to worry about with Demo version at the store.. everyone says XM5 is better but sony is very heavy on bass but not clear on high.. this is just good all around.

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.

I purchased these, and the Sony WH-1000XM6 to compare. I ended up sticking with the Bose since they are by far the more comfortable pair. XM6 wins in overall sound quality, noise cancelation, and active pass trough. That's not to say that the Bose doesnt do those things well, I just think the sony does them better. Same with the comfortability, sony is not bad, but Bose were just THAT much better.

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.

Just purchased them so i have not had much time to play around with them. So far they sound very good, like the prior model. They connect much faster to my laptop, unlike the prior model. I have noticed that when you are on a call if you speak too loud your voice will sound distorted, speak at a normal volume and it’s perfectly fine. Will be back with a more in-depth review once i have used them for a longer period.
