    The quality of the sound is very good but it's kinda tight and after a while you could feel it.

    On and off feature is unreliable unlike the sony xm5 im on my 3rd pair of sonys only because my dog chews on it. Sound quality is great but not good for the gym compared to the xm5 and battery life is a joke for its weight. Charge time is the same as charging a phone which is another bad thing. If i were to rate the top 3 headphones itd be xm5, qc ultra, apple

      Thanks for your review! While I'm happy to hear that you like the audio performance of the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones, I'm sorry to hear you're not happy with some of their other aspects. These headphones are not primarily designed for gym use; some of our in-ear solutions are better suited to this. To ensure that your Bluetooth/Power button and battery are working as they should be, we'd suggest contacting your local support team, who will help you. Warm regards, Fiona M. - Bose Customer Support bose

      Hello Rich, thanks for your review.

      I am glad to hear you are enjoying the great sound of the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones.

      If you aren't getting as much bass as you would like I would suggest using the Bose Music app allows you to use the Headphones Equalizer to adjust the bass level to your preference.

      If you run into any issues, please reach out to support and we’ll be happy to help!

    Was back and forth between these and the Sony XM5s for a few weeks, and while the Sonys are fantastic headphones, Bose just reigns supreme. Beautiful carrying case included as well

    Bose QC Ultra: Premium Price, Poor Performance

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After seven months with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones including countless domestic flights and multiple international trips I can confidently say I regret buying these. I came from the Sony WH-1000XM2, and honestly, I should’ve stuck with my seven-year-old Sony's or waited for the WH-1000XM6. The QC Ultra is nothing but an expensive disappointment. Battery Life? Embarrassing. These headphones somehow burn through battery even when you turn them off. I can flip the power switch via the Bluetooth button, see the LED die, set them down, and still wake up to a dead battery the next morning. On travel days, it’s infuriating. My XM2s never did this not once. ANC? Horrible for Movement. Any movement such as walking, chewing, turning your head, shifting in your seat causes this awful popping, thudding, or pressure shift. It completely shatters immersion. It’s so distracting that I’ve stopped using them for anything other than sitting perfectly still on a plane. Call Quality? Straight-Up Bad. Bose advertises “crystal-clear calls,” but the real-world performance is downright miserable. During a recent FaceTime call with my daughter, I was constantly being asked to repeat myself or worse, she couldn’t hear me at all. For something this expensive, that’s unacceptable. Background noise leaks in, voices cut out, and the microphones struggle with even the lightest breeze. Using these for calls feels like a downgrade from AirPods, speakerphone, or literally anything else. Connectivity? Finicky at Best. Random Bluetooth dropouts, audio desync when switching between devices, and the annoying tendency to auto-pair to the wrong device the moment you turn them on. Switching between phone, iPad, and laptop feels like playing roulette. Spatial Audio? More Gimmick Than Innovation. The head-tracking features are disorienting, inconsistent, and drain battery even faster. Most people turn it off immediately, and I don’t blame them it adds nothing but annoyance. And No, I’m Not a Sony Fanboy. I just want a premium product to work like a premium product. These do not. Every flight reminds me how badly I wish I’d waited for the Sony WH-1000XM6 instead of taking a chance on Bose’s hype machine. Never again. These will be my first and last Bose headphone purchase. Don’t waste your money, I should have waited for Sony's or bought anything else.

      Hi Stephen, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us, we truly appreciate it. Your input is valuable and helps us identify areas where we can improve.
      The QuietComfort Ultra Headphones are designed with advanced features such as spatial audio, adaptive noise cancellation, and multi-device connectivity. However, we understand these can feel different compared to traditional models, and issues like battery drain, ANC sensitivity to movement, and call quality are not experiences we want you to have.
      To help, we recommend:
      Checking for firmware updates in the Bose Music app, as these often resolve battery and connectivity concerns.
      Resetting Bluetooth connections to improve pairing stability across multiple devices.
      Adjusting ANC settings in the app, which can reduce the pressure effect during movement.
      We want you to enjoy the reliable performance and comfort Bose is known for, and we’ll continue to support you in getting the best experience possible.
