    Amazing pair of headphones. We upgraded from the gen 1's due to wear and tear and these have exceeded all expectations. Little pricey, but worth it.

    Annoying auto off feature

    Preface: I LOVE Bose sound quality and have been using their headphones for over 10 years, however, the QC Ultra Gen2 headphones have the same issue as Gen1: Bose expects you to just take them off your head and let them auto disconnect from your devices, but this auto disconnect doesn't consistently work. Many times the headphones stay connected and audio plays through the headphones even when they aren't on your ears. Very annoying. Like the Gen1, I returned the Gen2 and say with my Sony MX5 until Bose changes this behavior.

      Hey Jobey, we're delighted to hear that you're a long-time Bose fan, and love the sound quality of the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen)! The headset has two features which you will find helpful and address your feature request.

      The headphones will indeed disconnect from your devices after 3 seconds when they are removed from your head, and with the earcups laid flat or when they are stored in the case. If they are removed from your head and left in any other orientation, they will disconnect from your devices after 10 minutes. The headphones will immediately reconnect when you place the headphones back on your head.

      If you'd instead like to just pause audio when you're on the go, on-head detection in the headphones are enabled to pause and resume audio when simply lifting or placing back the right ear cushion. If you'd like any further product set-up help, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We'd be happy to help make sure you're getting the most from all the features of the headset!

    Great sound and comfort but not sure why the price tag is that high. The spatial audio isnt really that big a deal, but these are great headphones for the sound and comfort.
