Audio gets no better than this. Very comfortable and easy to connect

I bought this for my kid and she loves it because sound so crispy and great quality sounds. Fit really well to your ears and head. Highly recommended for Christmas gift.

Awesome headphones, great sound, great battery, great design, I had the Apple Max 2’s, Bose out performed at every level!

Excellent head one . I have used all the headphones from Bose, this is the best I have ever used . It’s made so light , very flexible and soft in use and best is its sound , immersive , noise cancellation so effective, I slept so easily in the plane . It’s just excellent .

Sounds better than the Bose 700 I have. Better bass. The immersive audio could use an update for better head tracking. I’m sure a new firmware is in the works. I didn’t realize it doesn’t have the touch sensor on the earcup like Bose 700 before getting them. I think they got away from it to make room for bigger battery. Overall satisfied with the purchase.

They are the best headphones that I bought sound great and are very comfortable, they have an app that gives you many functions.

Super quiet and comfortable. They definitely block the noise.

Great set. Could be louder but sound is crisp and clear. When they are on sale they are worth the price. Think it was 100 off. Perfect at that price amazing quality and sound.

TLDR: Best ANC headphones on the market with a few fixable flaws. If you want better sounding headphones, be prepared to open up your wallet and hear a lot more of the outside world. If you’re looking for the best ANC headphones out there, the Bose QC Ultra’s are the way to go. This is my first pair of Bose headphones and I’ve been blown away by their ANC performance. I’m not new to the ANC headphone scene-I previously owned the Sony XM4’s and XM5’s, and the Sennheiser Momentum 3’s and 4’s. The QC Ultra’s surpass all of them when it comes to noise cancellation. The ANC is a little more effective than the Sony’s and considerably better than the Sennheiser’s. These aren’t audiophile headphones but for the average listener, like myself, these sound great. I think the Sennheiser’s sound a little better but it’s not a significant advantage. If you’re looking for “higher quality” sounding headphones, you’re going to have sacrifice ANC performance and spend a decent amount more. I’ve tried a few of the more upscale headphones and they do sound better but the ANC isn’t anywhere close to the QC Ultra’s. The build quality is solidly above average. It’s mostly plastic with synthetic leather but adds a touch of luxury with genuine aluminum accents. Outside of the Momentum 3’s, the QC Ultra’s have the best build quality. They’re light but don’t feel or look cheap. Unlike a lot of other headphones in this segment, these do fold so they come with a smaller case. The case isn’t extremely rigid but feels relatively solid. I wouldn’t be worried about these getting crushed when throwing them in a suitcase or backpack. This shouldn’t really be a pro but, yes, you can manually turn the Ultra’s off. So what’s not too hot? The battery life is mediocre/average. Compared to all of the ANC headphones I’ve owned, they have the worst battery life. I use these daily and have to charge them more frequently than the others. It’s not horrible but when compared to the 60 hour (give or take) battery life of the Momentum 4’s, the mediocrity really stands out. For some reason, Bose decided not to give users the option of turning off ANC. I suspect that having that option would improve battery life significantly. The app is ok but the EQ is pretty basic. You can’t save individual sound profiles and easily switch between them like with the Sony’s or Sennheiser’s. Again, I have no idea why they took that route. If enough people complain, hopefully they’ll update the ANC off and EQ through a software update. The last complaint is mostly cosmetic and seems to be an issue with a lot of other headphones. The finish of the ear cups are fingerprint magnets. It doesn’t matter when you’re jamming at home but who wants to be in public with greasy looking headphones. Overall, I really like the QC Ultra’s and will use them until they fall apart. I wanted the most effective ANC headphones and these fit the bill. They sound great and I love using them every day. They’re far from perfect but do the best job of suppressing all that chitter chatter in the background. If you cam get these on sale, i think they’re one of the best bargains available.

One of the best noise cancelling headphones I have tried. Very immersive sound, love the auto pause when you take them off. Easy to use via Bose app as well. Battery life super long!

So comfortable with incredible sound as expected from Bose!

The product is outstanding and offers excellent comfort, effectively blocking noise. However, it's not significantly superior to the Bose 700, which provides more hands-on options and greater control in noise cancellation. A crucial tip: After installing the Bose app on your phone, remember to disable Bluetooth on your phone. This step is essential to prevent interruptions during computer use, such as when receiving phone calls. If you're in a Zoom meeting, an incoming call can disrupt the session, silencing applications like YouTube or Zoom. You can still take the call, but to ensure uninterrupted listening, it's best to turn off the phone's Bluetooth while using these headphones. Initially, you'll need to use the Bose app to set up the quiet mode and other features before turning off the phone's Bluetooth.

I bought the Bose QC Ultra headphones last month, and I’m really impressed. The sound quality, noise cancellation, and spatial audio are all excellent, and the headphones are very lightweight and comfortable. Connecting to devices is seamless, and the Bose Music app makes everything easy to control.

Un-matched noise cancelling ability. Sound is is top notch, connectivity is also pretty good. Only real drawback is battery life.

I love these headphones, they're comfortable with great sound and a greater buy when they're on sale on Amazon.

Great quality, does everything I need it to. It looks fantastic as well. Easy connection for iphone once you get the hang of it. App is easy to use as well that comes with it. Got it on a sale so it was considerably better value than everything around its price range.

Deep base for me personally are a huge pro. EQ adjustable settings in the app are all you really need. Battery life is reasonable. Connectivity is fine, but it can take some getting used to.

I thought the noise cancelling on my previous pair was impressive, but this one stopped all the crying babies from ruining my flight. The sound is crisp and clean. I even just like to turn them on without music for the peacefulness they create. And that blue is awesome. The only downside is that putting them in the case correctly is not as intuitive as my last pair, but I will figure out what yoga position they have to be in to fit correctly.

Really comfortable, great sounds, isolation is good, and multi device connectivity is perfect.

Super soft. Bulky. Great audio quality as expected. Seamless connectivity
