Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very good noise cancellation and sound quality. Fits well. Good battery life.

The sound quality for Bose is legendary, but the Active Noise Cancellation on Bose is superior to anything on the market. I love that these paid perfectly with any pc, tablet, iPad and Android phones. With iPhones (which I have) you definitely have to be prepared to spend a couple minutes throughout the first week playing with settings and learning to tweak it just right for your own needs and use. Doesn't have a great lost feature like the iPhone pro's but if you listen to a lot of music, videos, the battery life is significantly better than the Apple. For regular phone calls it's going to depend on if you are someone with the buds always in or if you take them out and put them in the case. Personally I am the latter and feel like I charge my Bose case once every 4 days and never have the buds die during a 8-10 hour work day even if they are in all day. With Apple, I can push toward a 10-12 hour day sometimes but I find the case is dead every other day. Both are great options, but if you're someone who is in super noisy environments when talking on the phone, I will caution you, Apple naturally adjusts, Bose you have to play with the settings the first call or two. If this isn't an issue with you, I recommend these to anyone who wants seamless connectivity with the most devices, especially pc laptops. They are amazing on Zoom calls in coffee shops, airports, busy offices etc. Also very durable.

Great sound quality, glitchy software. This sounds great when it works, excellent noise cancellation and I love the new immersion mode. Very stylish looking with good battery life although th case feels a bit flimsy. My biggest issue is the software, it keeps loosing the connection in the middle of whatever im doing and i have to disc & reconnect the Bluetooth. Happens at least 1-2 per day. Yes all my software is up to date and yes the device is next to me. I also had an older version of these and same thing. I haven't had this issue with other wireless earbuds.

My number one concern is always the fit. If they don’t stay in my ears then the audio quality doesn’t matter. The ultras have lots of options to help you get the right fit. I swapped out the tips for some memory foam tips and the fit is solid. Number two is the sound quality. It is excellent! Custom tuning with the Bose app makes it even better. Much better high end than my other high end earbuds. Highly recommended!

I've always wondered what Bose earbuds were like. Now I know. The sound is so clear! The mids/highs are not as up front as the Sony in quiet mode. However, once I enabled the immersion mode, I was amazed. These have rich Bass and I like that the volume is set higher than others. About 1/4 volume level is roughly equivalent to 1/2 volume level on the Sony XM5 and Jabra Elite 10 in my experience. Noise cancelation is scary. On a few occasions it seemed like I had people magically appear behind me. I didn't even hear them coming. IMO they are right there with the Air Pods. My biggest gripe is connection issues. On occation I've had one or both earbuds not connect when taking them out of the case. I just put them back for a few seconds and take them out again and all is good. The big one though is connecting with the app. I don't know if it's the buds or the app but it really sucks!!! Connecting or not connecting is literally 50/50. Hopefully Bose can fix this with firmware update or at least put out a more refined product for the next version.

I like that they are more comfortable to wear and the battery lasts longer in between charging. I liked previous charging case better which allowed charging in the case instead of having to plug the case in to charge. Overall a great product and noise cancellation is great.

Let me start by saying that I really wanted to love the Bose Earbuds. The promise of premium sound quality and a comfortable fit drew me in, but unfortunately, my experience with them has been marred by some significant issues. The most frustrating issue I've encountered is the erratic behavior of the earbuds. Every ten minutes or so, without warning, the sound mode seems to switch from quiet to aware, and then back again in a fraction of a second. This might not sound like a big deal, but let me tell you, it's incredibly disruptive. It momentarily blocks ambient sounds, then returns to normal, causing a jarring effect that throws off the balance in my ears. It's like being on a rollercoaster ride every time I'm trying to enjoy my music or a podcast. What's even more frustrating is that this isn't an isolated incident. This is my second pair of Bose Earbuds, both of which have experienced the same issue. And it's not a problem specific to one device either—I've tried using them with two different phones, an iPad, and a Dell laptop, and the issue persists across all of them. It's incredibly disappointing to spend a significant amount of money on a product only to encounter the same problem repeatedly. Another major issue I've encountered is with call functionality. Here's the kicker: after the call ends, the earbuds decide it's time to disconnect and reconnect, causing an unnecessary interruption. This disruptive behavior means that every time I finish a call, I have to endure the unpleasant experience of the earbuds disconnecting and then reconnecting, disrupting any subsequent activity. Additionally, there are occasions when they disconnect randomly for no apparent reason, requiring me to put them back in the case to regain connection. This inconsistency is simply unacceptable, particularly for a product in this price range Now, don't get me wrong—the fit of the Bose Earbuds is perfect, and when they're working properly, the sound quality is impressive. But these glitches and defects have made me regret making such an expensive purchase. It's a shame because I had high hopes for these earbuds, but unfortunately, they've fallen far short of my expectations. In conclusion, while the Bose Earbuds have the potential to deliver a top-notch audio experience, the recurring issues I've encountered have left me feeling disappointed and frustrated. Unless Bose addresses these issues in future iterations, I can't in good conscience recommend these earbuds to others. Buyer beware.

Probably the best in ear earbuds, sound quality is amazing. Noise isolation is incredible and battery life is great. These earbuds are small enough to sleep with and there’s very comfortable to wear. They come with 3 different sizes for your ears.

Purchased these for work. The sound is amazing and the noise cancelation works flawlessly. Comfortable in the ear and comes with multiple ear bud rubbers to adjust to your ear. Not as slim lined as others but better quality for sure

They have a good fit. Not cluncky in the ear. Noise canceling is too knotch. Controls are easy enough to use. App works well will an e.q. loved my power beats that died and these are just as good sound wise. Better than Sony and power beats 2 all day long.

Great sound and seals you of from the rest of the world when they are in your ears! Easy to connect to phone - great plug & play! Lasted for multiple long plays. Experienced a ew dropped connectivity issues but reconnected quickly. Purchased on Black Friday for a great deal.

I've always been a Bose fan, and these earbuds do not disappoint!! In the past, I have had issues with the fit not really working for me, but these earbuds came with different tip options and I found a combination that works for me. The sound is rich, and the noise cancelling is tremendous. I absolutely recommend these!!

Awesome sound, and comfort quality! Cant go wrong! Plus the color on these i love! The battery is really good too. Highly recommend these!!!

I upgraded from my old over-ear BOSE and BEATS headphones to these in-ear earbuds, and I’m really impressed. The noise-canceling feature is outstanding. I can mow my lawn on my tractor—a notoriously loud environment—and still enjoy music or a podcast with almost no interference from the mower’s noise. Plus, earbuds have a distinct advantage over over-ear headphones: they don’t flatten your hair. While it might not matter at home, if you’re on a plane and heading straight to a business meeting, you won’t have to worry about that telltale headband arc. Definitely something to consider! Furthermore, the battery life is great. I don't find myself having to constantly charge these things and if I do its rather quickly bc of the usb-c.

Simply stellar! Extremely comfortable. All three modes are versatile and productive. I am a sound brand snob and this Bose product holds up to their name! Highly recommend.

Top of the line sound quality, but has connectivity issues with Apple. The connectivity issues was enough of a deal breaker for the price for me to return them.

I purchased the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds in April 2024, and overall I’m very happy with the product. The sound quality is excellent—rich bass, clear mids, and immersive audio, especially with noise cancellation turned on. Bose continues to deliver what it’s known for: premium sound and comfort. I’ve used several Bose products over the years, and the build quality and audio performance here are consistent with that reputation. So far, I’ve had no hardware or reliability issues. The earbuds are comfortable for long listening sessions, and the noise cancellation works extremely well in both indoor and outdoor environments. What Could Be Improved The main area for improvement is connectivity, especially when using multiple devices. Seamless switching between devices like: Windows desktop Windows laptop Apple iPad Pixel phone Pixel Watch is not as smooth as it could be. While multi-point exists, switching still sometimes requires manual intervention or reconnecting, which breaks the otherwise premium experience. Overall If sound quality and noise cancellation are your top priorities, these earbuds are an excellent choice. With improved cross-platform, seamless device switching, they would be close to perfect. Highly recommended, with minor connectivity improvements needed to make them truly best-in-class.

These are so incredibly comfortable. I have very sensitive ears and ive tried so many different earbuds, and these are by far the most comfortable. They are also very secure and come with 9 dofferent ways to adjust the fit so its perfect for you! Of course the sounds is also incredible and the bose app is actually amazing and well designed offering way more customization than airpods. going to be buying a couple pairs as gifts for sure, everyone should have these!

I absolutely love Bose and they did not miss with these earbuds. I didn’t give them 5 stars because the transition of connectivity from my iPhone to the earbuds are not as seamless as my old AirPod Pros were. However, the sound quality is far superior to any earphones that I’ve ever had. It truly sounds like I’m in a movie theater while listening to my music or books. Thank you Bose for continuously meeting and exceeding my expectations.

Love the amount of things you can do from the headphones themselves!! Turn volume up/down, toggle between quiet/aware/immersion, skip song, answer calls etc etc etc!! The noise canceling is amazing and they don’t need to be charged often either. Would definitely repurchase and they’re better than AirPods!
