Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought these headphones after listening to them in the store. Although I have the Bose 700 which I love, I wanted to see what the immersive sound is all about. First off the sound quality is a bit improved for my tastes over the Bose 700, but on the plus side too, the immersion feature is a really neat feature. In my opinion it is certainly not necessary, but pretty neat. They have the unique still mode where the sound is in front of you and as you move your head, it stay in one spot for some seconds, then the motion mode the sound stays in front of you no matter how you move your head. In immersion, it really spaces out the sound, feeling like you're in a room or so with all of the singers and instruments while when immersion is off, the 3 dimensions of sound disappears. I'm not sure they are worth the price, but I still bought them and to me are not worth returning. It's a keeper. It depends on how much you want to spend for this feature.

I narrowed my choice between bose, sony, and airpod max. I tested the noise cancellation in store and funny enough it was a busy day in the store and there was a really loud alarm going off. The bose headphones performed the best (couldn't try the airport max headphones as there was no display) and from a price point they were cheaper than the airpodmax and I read several website reviews that said sony and bose had better sound quality. I really like the case provided and the ease of use. I mostly have apple products but these still working on it great in spite of not being fully integrated like beats or airpods. Bose also has a great warranty on their products and I've had really good experience even when the product breaks or needs repairs.

Amazing! I have used the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones for a couple of months for work calls and for gaming and they are just incredible. Excellent noise cancellation and top quality audio. They pause when removing them from your ears, even just moving them slightly off your ears to listen to someone talking to you. They seemlessly connect to multiple devices with very little trouble. I have had other headphones that are constantly needing to reconnect when using multiple devices. These have had almost no troubles at all handing off from my phone to the computer.

Very comfortable, excellent audio, great noise cancellation.

I had the Sony XM5s for over a year and decided to splurge and give these a try. And I an very glad I did. In almost all categories that I value, these are just better. ANC and Transparency modes, fit and comfort, and portability are all clearly better IMO. Sound quality is really comparable - but the Bose "Immersive" mode make these really shine - making me want to listen to these all the time now. My Sonys have not been on my head since I purchased the Bose Ultras. I also have the Bose 700 headphones and these are a definite step up in almost every area. Bose's App and list of features are not on par with Sony - but again, in those areas that I most value, Bose Ultras are the winner.

Sound quality and battery life are fantastic! Glad I did my research between brands!

Bose knows how to do comfort. The ultra headphones and the ultra earbuds are quite amazing. The Bose QC ultra headphones are quite comfortable with a very warm and engaging soundstage. Have the WH1000 XM5s to compare to. The X-M5s look awful and the headband sucks. There's just no other word for the sonys. The headband just sucks! Plus they look cheap. The Bose QC ultra headphones look like quality. You will get your money's worth. What's really important is call quality and soundstage for listening to whatever music there is you're into. These will not disappoint.

Absolutely fantastic headphones. Noise cancellation is wonderful. ear cups are comfortable, even for bigger ears.

I bought this as a gift for my husband, and he loves them. He says the sound quality is great, they’re comfortable, and easy to store.

I use these when mowing on the tractor, gardening, housework and kitchen prep when I don’t want to hear the television. I listen to Audible books and the noise cancelling is excellent. However, I can still be “in the moment” and hear the dog or cat at the door or other important signals. If the phone rings, I can take the call or decline without removing the headphones. They are comfortable and adjustable and often safer than using AirPods. Great buy!

I love the noise cancellation on these headphones. They are comfortable to wear for an extended period of time. They also connect to my television.

First set of Bose headphones. I mostly use them for running during the winter. The fit is great, offering adjustability to get the perfect fit. The different sound modes are great too, with ambient allowing me to hear my surroundings and ANC blocking everything other than the loudest vehicles, but even then, I can barely hear them. So far they do not have any issues like a buzzing sound, which I’ve had with other headphones I’ve used for working out. The ear pads aren’t interchangeable, but are holding up well so far. And the audio quality is top tier.

Excellent NC. I cannot really tell the difference from airpods Max or Sony XM3, but I was able to wear them for 8 hours with no ear burning or issue so comfort wins here. I got them open box for $200 less (white smoke version) and they looked like new and have full warranty

Returned the Apple AirPods Max for these. They’re much better! So light, far superior noise cancellation, richer bass, and more. Fantastic headphones!

Excelente sound and noise canceling system. Very convenient and comfortable. I wish Bose could consider to make around the ear pieces. That will be fantastic.

I bpught these for my fence she absolutely loves them they pair to our tv and other devices perfectly and feell great its a great product.

10/10 sound, it cancels so many surrounding sounds. light weight, loved the black sleek color.

They are amazing headsets. Light weight, great sound, great noise cancelation. Why a 4 rating? This applies to all headsets in this class ... they are too expensive.

This is my 3rd pair of Bose noise cancelling headphones, and the best yet. My favorite new feature is that it pauses music automatically when I take them off to talk to coworkers. Also does a great job of connecting to computer and phone at the same time, so if music is playing on computer it will pause when my phone rings. Best noise cancelling I have experienced.

Solid headset for use at work with MS Teams. I’ve had so many problems with other headsets. Sound quality and battery life are exceptional. Bose has never let me down in 25+ years.
