    Seriously disappointing

    Power on/off is really finicky, often powers itself off, and doesn't like to do an initial startup if you get anywhere near a longpress. Connectivity is average. The claim-to-fame "immersion mode", doesn't work really well in the dynamic mode (where it "follows you around"). It's just not that noticable. The Boze app doesn't make enabling this easy. Lastly, the 24hr sleep mode drains the battery like crazy. Can't keep this thing charged for 2 days with 2 hrs use each day Only not rating 1 star because, as usual, the silencing and sound quality are very good. Overall very disappointing when compared with QC earbuds or older headphones models.

    Sound was disappointing and bass was lacking. I returned them and got the Sennheiser Momentum 4. For this price I expect a lot more sound quality. I will admit that the NC is excellent.

    Bose is missing QA department

    I desperately wanted to like these, though they sound exactly like the QC IIs, unless you are into their dynamic audio. Otherwise, it's a gimmic. If you are used to controlling volume on the headset, good luck with the sensor. It seemed I could with one "swipe", turn the volume too low, or one swipe up to blow my eardrums out. I can't even get my head around this obvious failing. Also, I am not sure what is going on with Bose and their apps and bluetooth. I am currently running a couple qc II, am xm4, and airpod pros. These are by far and above the worst app experience, and that's saying something because apple doesn't even have an app for android. Why is it so hard for the headset to connect to the phone, but so easy for it connect to every other device? It constantly thinks something is streaming, when nothing is playing. Which stops the 2nd device from being able to play. I just turned it on/off 5 times, and had to turn off all other bluetooth devices that were setup, just to get it to connect to it's own app on the phone. I could keep typing, but don't really want to be their QA or UI team. Sadly, I will be returning these unless by some miracle they start working as they should.

    Sound is great, but if you are using these with Apple products, you might as well spend the extra $100 to get the Apple headphones. These are not as compatible.

    Upgraded from the previous model and found that the Noise reduction was so much better. With the TV on and people walking by me, they would have to tap me to get me to notice them. And... no more power switch, it turns on and off automatically

    Bose QC Ultra: Premium Price, Poor Performance

    |
    Best Buy Employee
    Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    [Employee of bestbuy] 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.

    These are not as good as the previous model I had bought 2 years ago. The noise cancellation is not the best. I could still hear people even in first class with less people around. I left my 2 year old ones on the plane by accident. Going to try the Apple Headphones.
