Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got these mainly to use while at work as there is a lot of talking and commotion going on because of the open environment. They have been absolutely great and the ANC has been the best thing about these. I cannot hear the conversation next to me that is happening about 10ft away and I don't have to have the volume too high.

Great sounds quality, but the volume is not high enough. I like to torture my ears :p

True to the sound ,they help me to stay focused on my workouts .

Perfect headphones. Super comfortable and amazing sound quality

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra block noise like a champ, creating your own peaceful oasis. Comfort's great, except for my ears getting a bit toasty after a while. While the tech is top-notch, the controls for power, pairing, and even sleep mode are terrible! Turning them on feels like solving a riddle, Bluetooth pairing can be a tango with frustration, and the sleep mode plays its own game, shutting down mid-audio even while perched snugly on my head. Talk about an unwanted pause button! It triggers way too often when still on my head!) Still, for pure noise canceling, they're unbeatable. For the price though - the controls should be easier to use. Just give us a normal power on/off button!

I use this with a windows machine. Audio quality is good, connectivity is good even with multiplayer real time games, microphone is also good. But they have got the very basic feature wrong which is needed on a daily basis. The ability to quickly turn ON & OFF the device. This makes the headphones trash for me. They have a single button to control power, bluetooth and what-not. For power controls, you need to long press the button and understand what's happening from a tone that plays -- and it's very confusing. I am not sure if it's ON or not and have to try it multiple times on daily basis; like every day. If I place my headphone on the desk, it sneakily goes into some standby state and it is supposed to detect when it's again worn to turn back ON. But this process is ultra slow, it almost never happens and if you manually try to turn it ON, it requires several tries. This is trash on usability front compared to a single simple toggle button. I am sure many people in Bose got promoted building this unnecessary feature but its not good at all. Bose, I would gladily return them to purchase some other headphone if you can take them back as I'm stuck with them.

Great fit over the ear; noise cancelling is superb!

The sound is great and the noise suppression really makes you feel isolated from the ambient noise. Will take some time to get adjusted to the controls and auto systems.

Best headphones I've ever owned. The sound quality is exceptional and the noise canceling in next level. The price is a bit high but well worth it.

Great fit, very comfortable. Sound quality was not what I was expecting from Bose

While wearing the Bose headphones, for the first time flying to Europe I was able to sleep! I love them!

Great sound and comfort! Another awesome product from Bose.

All in all, I didn't have a great experience with these headphones. I owned the old QC 35 and ran them into the ground, so I had high hopes and expectations when I purchased these. Indeed, the noise cancellation is top notch and is only rivaled by Sony and Apple. The passthrough audio is also pretty good, and in my opinion is only second to apple's. However, I had a consistent background hiss on both noise cancellation mode and hear through mode that got very annoying. What ultimately caused me to return them was that once these headphones ran out of battery, they are pretty much useless. Plugging in the included 3.5mm headphone jack does not work unless the headphones have some charge left. I read in a forum somewhere that you had to plug both the USB C, and the headphone jack if you wanted to use them as a regular pair of wired headphones. Save your money and get the old qc 35s or better yet get the Sennheiser momentum 4s, which come with better battery life (up to 60 hours vs up to 24 hours with the QC Ultras), decent noise cancellation and in my opinion better sound quality and can be used as wired headphones with both the included 3.5mm headphone cable, or USB C.

This is my third Bose headset and they are more amazing then the 1st pair was many years ago. Easy connect, the noise cancelling is awesome. Much better than earlier versions which were more noise dampening.

Very comfortable and absolute noise control. Highly recommend

Comfortable wear with a fantastic sojnd quality. The noise cancellation is one of the beat I’ve experienced. They are perfect for everyday and essential for travel. I am going to buh another one for my wife.

Amazing sound quality. I purchased Sonos totally disappointed. Bose is the best ncs and sound quality. Little bass would be beter but not makes me unhappy. Love it.

Definitely a must for work outs! I had the old set and loved them. I definitely needed a new set. Those are lighter and so much more easily to connect to your phone. I would say you would love them.

I have owned the quiet Comfort 35 for the last five years and that was fantastic. Having the opportunity to buy the new ultras is truly amazing when you compare my previous QC 35s to the current technology in noise canceling and sound quality of the Ultras. This is by far the best headphones I’ve ever had.

Very satisfied. The tension on my head and ears seems less than my older wired Bose unit, but the still seal well. I like to wear them when flying.
