Great unless you have tinnitus
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive lwys biught the cheap $59 and under headphones. Even with NC you could hear things around you. This was my first pair of high end Bose headphones. The settngs for where the sound was xoming from was interesting, the NC blocked out everything. I couldn’t even hear myslef breathing or typing. That was the first 30 minuets wearung them. I bought them to wear at night while sleeping. I bought a pillow that has a hole in the middle to accommodate them sicne i sleep on my side. At first i tried just the NC and a brown noise, but my tinnitus kept getting louder. So I put a thunderstorm track on and went to bed, and woke up 30 minutes later freaked out from claustrophobia. Not something I have ever experienced before. I kept trying different sounds and even turned off the NC. But apparently unless my brain can hear “me” it freaks out. Intried three nights in a row same each time. I went back to playing the thunderstorm on my hatch clock at almost the highest volume to block out the noises. I work at hime so i dont need these to block peole out. After them sitting in my night stand for a week without being used I decided to put them on when using the leaf blower. Put them on, walk across the room and suddenly felt like I had vertigo. It went away after sitting downa and taking them off. I started researching online if NC can cause claustrophobia or vertigo to see if it is common or if i was foing insane. Turns out there is a small percentage of people that do have this reaction, so its not just me. Something do with the pressure that can build in the ear canal. One oerson said it felt like their fight or flight would kick in when they couldn’t hear their breathing. So they would meditate with them on until they got used to it. I tried but it didnt help. These were just to expensive to dred wearing. They were the most comfortable headphones ive worn and the NC is amazing. But between my tinnitus getting louder with them on and my brain being dramatic i decided to return them.

Confide in the brand
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These Bose headphones are simply amazing, i love the build quality and the effortless connection and customizability in the EQ. I love how i can have two devices connected simultaneously and it will output the audio from the device i want some way some how it just knows 9 out of 10 times. Amazing audio coming from these headphones and yes theyre up there in price but i believe they’re worth it if youre able to get a pair. The bass is nice too, not too much nor too little/soft. Noise cancellation is amazing, i wore these while running an oscillating tool and i could not hear the annoying buzzing sound of plummeting into some wood. Great features and the simplicity goes a long way.

AMAZING - A++++
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The BEST headphones I have experienced. I remember the first generation of the Bose QC headphones. Always have released fantastic products. These headphones are not cheap, once you use them it becomes clear it is worth the price tag. Whether listening to music or playing a PC / Console game, the sounds are simply outstanding. The headset is also VERY comfortable. One thing I was careful about was verifying the weight of the headset prior to getting them. They are lightweight which is fantastic for long sessions and just overall comfort. Inthis price point THE BEST!!!

Not lifechanging, but still nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these as a switch from in-ear to over the ear, and these are super comfortable! Pros: not too heavy, love the color, noise cancellation is nice, comfortable to wear Cons: the mic is not as great as I was hoping, you have to mess with the Bose app when pairing new devices, the head movement sensor will continuously pause your sound if you’re moving around (ie cleaning the house) unless you turn it off… but that means it won’t auto pause if you take the headphones off. Overall, I am happy with the purchase but there are definitely cons to get used to.

Amazing Sound and Noise Cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently got the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones in Lunar Blue, and I’m really impressed. The sound quality is clear with strong bass, and the noise cancellation is excellent—it blocks out almost everything around you. They’re also very comfortable to wear for long periods, and the Lunar Blue color looks great and different from the usual black. Overall, they’re a bit expensive, but the sound, comfort, and noise canceling make them worth it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best headphones ever!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable on my head and the sound is superb! I had to get used to controlling the settings in the Bose app, but I’m comfortable with it now and it’s easy. The various sound modifications and settings are excellent and the headphones fold nicely in the case. Adjustable for head size too.

Happy upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Prior to purchasing these headphones, I owned corded on-the-ear Bose noise cancelling headphones purchased 15+ years ago. The new headphones are very light, offer both corded and wireless connectivity options, have three different operating modes, and they hold their battery charge for the length of my upcoming trip to Australia (~23hours)--quite an improvement over my older headphones.

Excellent Product!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's April, I have suffered through an episode of shingles on my face that has left me with lasting numbness. Ramsey Hunt Syndrome. I have no sensation of feeling in and around my right ear. It has left me with the inability to wear my Pixel Buds Pro. FAST FORWARD: After research I chose to purchase the Bose QC Ultra over ear headphones and they are a God-send. Not only is the sound quality as amazing as advertised but the comfort is beyond belief. They work excellently with my glasses and do not cause me discomfort. I can listen to things again without interfering with others around me. These have been a win-win. I highly recommend even though my situation vastly differs from others. Lastly, the sound quality and noise cancelling is phenomenal. Well worth the price even though they have no water resistance rating.

Thoughts on the QC 45 Ultras
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bose QC Ultra are very comfortable but I have come across some issues after 2-3 weeks. When adjusting the EQ the overall volume always decreases. In fact the volume just isn’t loud enough across the whole device. iTunes on my computer for some reason plays it much louder than when I’m on my phone playing music. Battery life is okay at 24hrs/ 18hr for immersion mode. Wind reduction is very noticeable so that was cool. Still don’t know if all the little upgrades like immersion, auto play, wind reduction, and the new button layout makes the ultras worth the extra $200 compared to the basic qc 45s. Connection has dropped a few times but not very consistently so a quick reconnect and I usually forget about it. Sometimes the auto play feature kicks in and I don’t realize it or it’ll keep playing music even though the headphones are off my head. Tried using it to play video games but if you have multi point connectivity and someone calls you on your phone mid game it’ll switch over to the phone so kinda got a little annoying for me. Overall sound could be better, neutral tone might just not be for me plus the sound limits are too low, battery life is average, and the connectivity isn’t perfect. I will say though movies and anything focusing on vocals are amazing. The bass rumbling in my ears caught me off guard while watching a movie since it doesn’t usually happen when playing music. Don’t know why that is maybe the movie had a better bass medium or the actually bass chord used was more sensitive to vibrations. Also, can’t leave out the amazing noise cancelling. These headphones are the best at ANC (active notice cancelling). So if you’re a student just looking for headphones to study in the library with these will keep you very focused. Others might not like you though if you have the volume too high because there is a bit of sound leakage. Anyways, I would like to try out a different pair of headphones to compare. I hear the Sony XM5s have a nice bass but comfort goes down with them and the main reason I chose the QC 45 Ultras was for comfort. Maybe I’ll give the regular QC 45s a go and save $200 and just lose the little upgrades. The perfect headphone, in this price range, just might not exist.

A quality headphone from Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have an older set of the Qs family quiet, comfort headset, and decided that after 20 years to buy a new one I’m glad I did. This one is really nice as far as the sound extremely comfortable and the battery life is much better than upset that I bought my older son a couple years back, now he wants one of these newer ones. I also have another set of Bose earbuds and I like those two so I’ve tried different products within Apple beats and I seem to find that Bose offers a much better quality of sound.

I use them in the gym, walking, phone calls, PS5 and just relaxing. Sound quality is great and the passthrough so you can hear your surroundings works great. Super comfortable headphones as well. Battery life is insane as well. Feel like I never charge them and they are ready to go

Fantastic Wireless Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The title says it all. These headphones are extremely comfortable, sound amazing, have the best noise cancelling i’ve ever experienced, and a very long battery life. They even automatically tune themselves to the shape of your ear canal. I had the Bose NC 700 headphones before and the QC Ultras are better in every single way.

Good however there are some problems
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are rather comfortable to wear however if you have sensitive hearing you shouldn't buy these While wearing them with noise cancelling there is a noticable pressure gap that will hurt your hearing for a while and make them hard to wear after roughly an hour of use They have good sound quality for watching videos or general use, phone-calls but if you buy these to use them and you game, you should look for different headphones, these are absolutely horrible for gaming and even a 15 dollar headset would be better than these, the sound quality is so horrible while trying to talk to people in a voice chat and listen to a game, it sounds as if you are listening to something underwater, very muddied sound and quiet You also cannot control these without a phone, you need to have a phone and have the app otherwise they are unusuable, there is no windows application for these at all, the user documentation is very poor if nonexistant, the build quality is extremely good, they are nice to the touch and very durable.

Good sound quality.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is the best feature of these headphones. Their connection speed is very quick. They are the most comfortable headphones ive owned. My only critique is their noise cancelling quality. Bose's other noise cancelling headphones are better in that regard. Also i dont care for the button to turn them on instead of a switch like on their other headphones. Overall they are good quality and i recommend them.

Good Product, But Expensive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra headphones are pretty awesome if you're into drowning out the world and just enjoying your tunes. The noise cancelling is top-notch; it's like being in your own little bubble, even when you're in noisy places. The sound quality is super crisp and clear, so whether you're into rock, jazz, or anything else, it all sounds great. Plus, the battery life lasts forever, which is perfect for long trips or just forgetting to charge them for a while. They are pricey, though. But if you're willing to spend the extra cash for some seriously good headphones that block out noise, sound amazing, and won't die on you quickly, these are worth it.
