Customer Ratings & Reviews

**Review for Bose Over-Ear Headphones** I recently upgraded to the ultra-quiet Bose Over-Ear headphones, and I couldn't be happier with my decision! From the moment I put them on, I knew I had made the right choice. They are incredibly comfortable—so much so that I often forget I'm wearing them. The design is perfect for long listening sessions without any discomfort. I initially purchased the basic model that was $100 cheaper, but after trying these premium headphones, I quickly returned the basics. The immersive listening experience is truly remarkable! The sound quality is incredible, with crisp highs and deep lows that make every song feel alive. One of my favorite features is the adjustable settings. I can switch to "Aware" mode to stay alert to my surroundings or crank it up to block out everything for complete focus. This versatility makes them perfect for any environment, whether I'm working, traveling, or just relaxing at home. Overall, the upgrade was absolutely worth it, and I highly recommend these headphones to anyone looking for a top-notch audio experience. Bose has truly delivered with these, and I can’t imagine going back to anything else!

They offer outstanding noise isolation performance, effectively blocking out ambient noise, which is beneficial for commuting or office environments. The sound quality is clear and sensitive, with a punchy bass and excellent instrumental staging. Users have noted that the headphones are comfortable for extended wear, though some mention that the design isn’t as luxurious as some competitors.

The Bose headphones are absolutely amazing! The sound quality is top-notch, with deep bass and crystal-clear audio that makes music, calls, and videos a pleasure. The noise-canceling feature is incredibly effective, perfect for blocking out distractions in busy environments. They’re also super comfortable to wear, even for long periods, and the battery life is excellent. While they might be a bit pricey, the quality and performance are well worth it.

Bose QC ultra is very comfortable and has pretty good NC -better airpods Pro 1 and senheiser momentums. I faced a lot of QC issues and had to return them twice .I could hear a clicky sound when i moved my head and music wasnt playing. Sound is good , but senheiser momentums are better. Immersive mode is a hit or miss depends on the track.On some songs it completely changes the sound stage. Battery life has been poor for me. Sometimes it will go from 80 to 20 in just standby which is weird. Touch slider control for volume is a pain to use and very flimsy.

Very comfy, I can see how ppl say it’s not “loud enough” but these are perfect, their never uncomfortable loud just like the perfect amount to me. Their really comfy and don’t hurt my head after using them for so long. I have a pretty big head and ear lol but they fit comfortably. The noise cancellation is the best and what I love the most. Helps a lot when getting overstimulated by sounds in public. If u want really painfully loud headphones these are not for u, if u want to escape the sounds from the world and listen to music for hours without getting a headace these are for you. Very portable and looks very good. Had them for under 2 months I still use them regular and daily

I have to say, after a weekend of use with different media; music and movies, these are wonderful headphones. Bose finally has integrated immersive sound (basically, dolby atmos) and the results are awstounding. The help of noise cancellation puts you in the music. The quality of construction is superb as usual. But, my favorite is how light they are on my head. This is something Bose has mastered. All and all, an A + for sound quality, construction and design.

These are hands down the best headphones I’ve ever owned. The sound is rich, clear, and incredibly immersive with the spatial audio—it feels like I’m in the middle of the music. Noise cancelling is next-level; it completely blocks out the world. They’re also super comfortable, even for long listening sessions, and the battery lasts all day. Calls are crystal clear too. If you want premium sound and comfort, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra is worth every cent.

I love these headphones! They are lightweight & comfortable on my ears. I don’t feel like they are causing strain on my head & neck like other headphones. I love the case & protection it offers. The noice cancelling feature is superb!

Great noise cancellation, perfect for the gym. very comfortable as well. i wore it on a 10 hour flight and i did not experience any headache or discomfort at all. battery life is also amazing. i charge my headphones maybe every 1.5 to 2 weeks of consistent wear.

As a music producer with a keen ear for sound quality, I carefully considered several factors before purchasing the Bose QC Ultra headphones. While the AirPods Pro Max have a strong reputation, I found them to be somewhat cumbersome. Similarly, after testing two different Beats models, I was disappointed by their lack of innovation despite being recent releases. I initially bought the standard Bose QuietComfort headphones but decided to upgrade to the Ultras, and the additional $100 was well worth it. The noise-canceling capabilities of the QC Ultra are unmatched, and the app integration with my iPhone is seamless. The option to connect to multiple devices simultaneously is a standout feature. There is a slight learning curve, as with any high-quality headphones, but after a week of use, they become second nature. I also appreciate the prompt, same-day delivery from Best Buy, which has proven to be a reliable and preferred shopping experience over other platforms. Having used the Bose QC Ultra headphones for about a month, I’ve had zero issues. The battery life is impressive, lasting several days on a single charge. The ‘Immersion Mode’ effectively blocks out external noise without compromising sound quality, and the ability to customize noise-canceling settings for different modes is a fantastic feature. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase.

Bose never disappoints. Every product that Bose manufactures is always better than the next one. The Bose overhead noise cancelling headphones ultra quiet are no exception. The sound,the great fit over the ears, the battery life combine to make this headset probably the best in this price range. Another important feature is that the Bose Headset fits absolutely perfectly in its carrying case.

I've been using Bose headphones for almost 20 years, and these QuietComfort Ultras really live up to the name. The sound is as amazing as ever—maybe even better than what I remember from older models. I use them every day, and they've been super reliable. They're light, super comfortable, and the color is just perfect. Honestly, these headphones are part of my daily routine now. Looking forward to another 20 years with Bose.

I’ve been using the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones for a while now, and the experience has been a mixed bag. On the positive side, the sound quality is outstanding. It sounds rich, balanced, and detailed across all ranges. The noise canceling is some of the best I’ve ever experienced, blocking out everything from office chatter to plane engines. Comfort is also top-notch. I can wear them for hours without any fatigue or head pain. Unfortunately, the microphone is a major letdown. Total trash. On calls and video meetings, people constantly tell me I sound muffled or hard to hear, and the mic also seems to pick up every bit of background noise. Compared to my older QC35 II, the mic performance is significantly worse, which is disappointing for a premium product at this price point. Overall, while the headphones excel in listening experience and comfort, the poor microphone quality is a dealbreaker for me. If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t buy the QC Ultras.

not bad, good sound good battery, uses usb c so nice

Mixed feelings! I currently own these, the quiet comfort and I started with the QC 35’s. I never owned the 45’s. These are certainly superior in comfort and in noise cancellation. As always audio sounds amazing and they’re comfortable for all day wear. Calls sound amazing as well, sound and feature wise these are above the Quiet Comfort headphones. BUT my one gripe is that these are harder to turn off, I I do miss the actual on and off switch with the regular Quiet Comforts, I feel like those battery lasted forever. These Ultras feel like it last less time because they’re harder to turn off and sometimes I won’t do it correctly, I had to change the auto off settings to be stricter. Final thoughts is I miss my simple switch that the regular Quiet Comforts do have, these are sleaker and sound better but they are almost twice as much during specials. I love my Bose tho

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones represent the absolute zenith of what over-ear wireless headphones can achieve. The legendary noise cancellation is in a class of its own, creating an almost surreal pocket of silence that effortlessly erases the hum of airplanes, the clamor of city streets, and the distractions of a busy office. This allows you to focus completely on the music, which is delivered with stunning clarity, rich detail, and the deep, balanced bass Bose is known for. The new Immersive Audio feature is a revelation, adding a subtle but breathtaking sense of spatial depth and width to your music, making it feel like you're in the room with the artists without ever sounding gimmicky or unnatural. Beyond the stellar audio performance, these headphones are masterclasses in comfort and design. The plush, cloud-like ear cups and perfectly distributed weight make them disappear on your head for hours of uninterrupted listening. The intuitive touch controls and seamless multipoint Bluetooth connectivity make switching between devices effortless. The battery life is more than sufficient for all-day use, and the sleek black design exudes understated premium quality. For travelers, commuters, and audiophiles who demand the best in both silence and sound, the QuietComfort Ultra is an uncompromising and worthy investment.

I’m autistic with ahdh. For a while i’ve been using the apple air pods as my form of noise cancellation, but to wear long term for the duration of the day, they just weren’t comfortable enough. I did a lot of research ahead of time, being this would be my first purchase of real headphones and not just earbuds. To say i’m floored by their comfortable, the level of noise cancellation and the sound quality when I do have music going, is an understatement. If you’re also stuck deciding between similiar price range products as I was, I can happily say I have not been more thrilled about a purchase in a very long time. You will absolutely not be disappointed.

In 2024, we all know Bose for delivering top-notch audio experiences, but let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the Bose QC Ultra headphones. First off, a bit of a letdown – no passthrough audio when using a cable. You've got to make sure the battery is juiced up and the headphones are turned on to catch those beats when connected with a 3.5mm cable, even if you are using a DAC. Now, speaking of cables, you might want to invest in a longer one. The included cable is pretty short, even for in-flight use. The physical buttons are a nice touch, but there's a minor hiccup – a 4 to 5 second delay from pressing the power button to hearing the chime when turning them on and other unreliable results when pressing the buttons, so you got to get used to it. Connectivity is smooth if you stick to one device, but the multipoint feature is a bit wobbly. It tends to auto-pause music or disconnect randomly. AND, you have to manually switch devices using the button (a bit of a bummer). Let's talk noise-canceling – it's downright impressive. However, calls are a different story. The self-voice feature is a letdown, and the automatic turn-off when not in use is hit or miss. Don't be shocked to find your headphones drained if you forget to manually power them down. A quick note on Aptx – it supports Aptx Adaptive, not Aptx, Aptx LL, or Aptx HD. Also, Snapdragon Sound is cool, but only a handful of devices support it, making it more of a "future-proof" feature for a future that hasn't quite arrived. Now, onto comfort – they're cozy to wear. I appreciate the design; it's not too big or small. However, those flat hinges might play a little pinchy with your ears, fingers, or neck occasionally, and it's worth noting that they tend to collect fingerprints (see photo). Why am I airing out these grievances but keeping them? Well, I'm hopeful that some of these quirks will get sorted with firmware updates. Plus, let's be real – they sound fantastic, and the noise-canceling is the cream of the crop. BUT, if you're not too fussed about immersive audio and "snapdragon sound" (which can be a bit gimmicky), a previous model might suit you just fine (and be nicer with your pockets).

They feel very nice and have the best audio i've experiences in a set of headphones. The bass is probably the best feature

Great comfort, great sound, great battery life. Very nice for travel/gaming/watching a movie next to a sleeping wife.
