    Nose ultra In ear buds

    Sound is great but no matter what combination of ear inserts and ear lobe wings they just start coming out after some time. Cleaning with alcohol fixes this but still falls out after more time in the ear. Every few minutes I have to keep adjusting the earbuds in my ear. Otherwise the sound is great, I just wish Bose would adapt the previous model the sounds port free design, after years of owning them I only remember them falling out a few times.

    Amazing earbuds, but deal breaker...

    Amazing earbuds overall. Sound quality and noise cancellation is top notch. The adjustable sound features and various modes are really impressive. However, the touch controls are absolutely maddening. Would not recommend these for physical activity. The slightest touch of your skin or even damp hair, will pause the music and there is no way to adjust the sensitivity. I will unfortunately be returning these, very disappointed.

    Great earpiece. Big fan of Bose. Price can be more reasonable or product can ad features like wireless charging perhaps to compensate for price ad a strong loop on case to prevent dropping or losing of device at minimum. Sound quality is superb, comfortable in ear, easy connectivity and sound deafening absolutely impressive.

    I've had earlier versions of Bose earbuds but these are the best I've used. Sound is tremendous & easy to pair. I use these at the gym in immersion mode & they sound great. Very comfortable as well.

    Great improvement from last version but they are most susceptible to falling off the ear during running. Not to say the last version was great either for that but either way. great sounds and extremely comfortable. never notice i have them on. sometimes its annoying to connect.

    These Bose Ultra QC Earbuds add the spacious sound of a live performance to the already amazing Bose QCII great sound. My Bose QCIi still work fine and I am able to still enjoy them which is something I can’t say for the acclaimed Sony earbuds which I owned, but quickly faded to become unusable. These are not cheap earbuds and they provide a great fit with makes for great bass, add quality, great noise cancellation and great performance all add up to make the Ultra QC Bose earbuds a True Winner!

    Absolutely live these earbuds!! Had airpods for a ling time but wanted better noise cancelation. I work in construction and these block out most of the noise. They also sound super good. I love the way they feel in my ears, very secure fitting. I do a lot of loving around and they have stayed in my ears throughout the whole day.

    Purchased for my husband, who is very picky about his earbuds. He loves them and says they are the best earphones he has ever owned. He listens to rock and alternative and says the voices are clear and the bass is amazing. The noise cancelling works great as well and keeps him from having to turn up the volume so loud. The charge lasts for a few days with a few hours of listening a day. We have been impressed with the Bose experience!

    These quite comfort ultra earbuds are phenomenal for music, with a good low end and some customization within the Bose app. Call quality id average, noise cancellation very good. If you prioritize music over calls, get these, but they are clunky.

    These headphones are great, but not perfect and lacking in surprising places. The sound is great, but only with the immersion turned off. The active noise reduction is great, but Bluetooth connection occasionally unstable. The charging case is good, but there is no information on its charge level (earbuds only). Close it with the buds in it and tgey disconnect. Most surprising though, the case cannot use a wireless charging pad and must be charged via USB-C. The capacitive touch interface is good, but also prone to accidental controls when not intended. That’s all maybe reason to deduct one star, but at $300 list price, I feel it weighs more and results in 2 stars deducted. They are still great headphones, but expensive to let the quirks slide.

    I have jlabs nc headphone pretty good. I have Jbl nc head phones pretty good both for the price $99. I travel a lot so I am on planes all the time and different gyms when I travel. Three weeks in the nc feature is by far the best I have tried or used. They are pretty comfortable ( wish they had ear hanger version ). The sound has been amazing. The battery life could be better. I wish you would of used a single charging station Instead of having a separate cord. I have enough cords when I travel.

      Hello, it is fantastic to hear you feel the noise-cancelling is the best you have ever tried. We always aim for the highest quality products, so it's great to hear that these are comfortable. These can be charged with any USB cable. We recommend being connected to a 5V outlet that can provide more then 2 amps to the earbuds for the best charging experience. You can find guidance here to ensure the best battery life https://bose.life/3QZ6foD
      Thanks

    I love these earbuds. They perfectly fit my ears. They are definitely better than any AirPods (coming from someone who owns 4 different types of AirPods). So many features! Also, amazing for the gym, but if you want to run? Eh. I suggest the Shokz's OPENFIT for running. But these are perfect for the gym with their snug fit.

    Noise cancelling was top tier, but more than I need for everyday use. I feel like they automatically had the noise cancelling turned on as soon as I put them in and I prefer to turn the noise cancelling on myself when I need it. My biggest complaint is that they weren't as comfortable as my old wired QC20 headset or my over the ears. I have small ears so sometimes earbuds can be tricky. Solid pick up for someone that wants really good noise cancelling and doesn't have issues with needing an extra small fit.

    Overtime, body oils build up on them even though you cant see the coat of oils it will fall out of your ear if you inner ears aren’t completely dry. This means if you start sweating even a little bit they fall out making this an expensive boo boo if youre doing some mowing or jogging around anywhere there are drains. Giving them a clean with a bit of ipa fixes this bit only shortly and temporarily. This problem was never present with the previous generation of ear buds. The soundsport free had ear lobe wings to hug the inside of your ear lobes and rarely fall out. A little suggestion for bose, please start putting those wings on your future products. Other than that one problem these ear buds are great. Connectivity is great, the bluetooth range is very good, the sound quality is excellent, and the connectivity with the apps are good.

      Hello Brady,

      In order to get the best comfort and audio experience with the QuietComfort Ultra earbuds, please check our fit guide: https://bose.life/3uWVAlx
      It is also recommended to clean them from any oil or debris using a dry soft cloth, especially if you are using them when you do sport activities.

    Absolutely great. They don’t slip. I use them at gym and while marathon training and rounds of walking golf. The noise canceling is great when I need it, but am able to it. Sound quality is amazing and different atmos settings help in enjoyment of music, podcast, and audiobooks.
