I upgraded from the QC35’s and these are some great headphones. The noise cancellation works very well. I recently travelled with these through the airport and the flight and I barely heard a thing. High quality bass and treble levels. Call quality and pretty good too. The person on the other line can hear you quite well to much as a whisper. The EQ settings need a bit of work, and you don’t really need the other modes like walk, focus, and quiet. All you need is Aware mode and Immersion mode. But overall great headphones.

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.

Sound quality is extremely nice, wish it was more louder but for sure good enough. Had some connection issues though a week later, It was saying it was connected but no sound was coming through and it kept trying to connect to app but wouldnt. Had to double click Bluetooth an hold it for a long time, was very annoying but doesnt happen too often. Gonna replace this pair because of that. Noise cancelling is very good but could be a little better I feel like anyways (I understand they are ear muffs though and I do mow lawns so... still I barely hear the mowers). The battery life is god tier, literally all day I be playing music without it dieing on me very impressive. In love with these for sure!!

Exceptional audio, ANC, comfort, microphone clarity, and build quality. Out of the box, great experience on iOS, Android, Mac, and Nintendo Switch. Works with BOSE USB Link for superior/simpler performance on Windows. Works well with AptX dongles for wireless performance on PS5. Bose Music app is minimal but overall effective. ‘Smart’ buttons and functions are a bit clumsy. The ‘immersive’ audio is a tedious gimmick that I never use. Battery life could be better. If you’re loyal to Bose, these are a worthy revision. As always, price-to-performance doesn’t stack up against Sennheiser or Sony. Built-in Microphone doesn’t work when wired; included aux cable doesn’t have inline mic.

I have tried a few noise canceling earphones and headphones, but Bose is just on a different level when it comes to it. The sound quality and noise canceling is absolutely superb! There are no other choices when it comes to listening to your genre of music and actually hearing all the instruments that are being played. Now the noise canceling is on a different level, they are no competition when it comes to Bose noise canceling. Try it out and you will be amazed!

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

Best headphones I’ve ever owned. Bass is wild for a headset! Also the way the voices move around to sound like they are above you was freaky. 100% dedicated to this brand for any future headphones.

My honest opinion is that I think these are overrated and overpriced. The most annoying thing to me is that it has to be powered on if you plan to use the 3.5mm wired connection. So if the battery dies on this thing which it likely will because the battery life ain’t wonderful then you can’t even use the standard wired connection because you’ll hear nothing through the headphones, ugh. I have a portable retro game that has headphone jack and I can’t use my Bose headphones if the battery dies, that really sucks. As for sound quality, it’s alright. Comfort is also good, not great. Although it can be connected to multiple devices via Bluetooth, it doesn’t switch seamlessly from one device to another like Apple AirPods or the Sony Mark 4. Another annoyance is that there is a delay when you power on the headphones which sometimes has me wondering if I pressed the right button. One area that I think it really shines is with the ANC. You can really block out your environment with these headphones and that’s the only really great thing about it. I had Sony Mark 4 before but the hinges were no good and broke with mild usage within 1-1/2 to 2 years. I should have enrolled in or taken an extended warranty on the Sony headphones . I love the Sony headphones plus the app too which was loaded with useful features and very intuitive. These Bose headphones have me missing my Sony Mark 4. I really hope Sony fixes the problem with those flimsy hinges. Anyhow, I don’t like wasting money so I’ll be sticking with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra until they go bad. Hopefully by then Sony will get its act together with those horrible cheaply made hinges.
Hi - I'm sorry to hear you're not completely happy with the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones, although you do like their noise-cancelling performance.
It's true that these headphones require power for use with either Bluetooth or the backup cable. The good news is that a quick 15-minute charge will power the headphones for up to 2.5 hours with Immersive Audio off, or up to 2 hours with it on.
As for switching between devices, the headphones allow you to connect to two devices at once. You can then switch between your two preferred devices easily by pausing audio on the first one, and pressing Play on the second.

Absolutely love these headphones! I bought these as a gift/upgrade to myself to replace a pair of dying headphones. I’ve used them now on flights and at work. Sound is excellent and setting the listening mode via the app is very easy. I loved them so much I bought a pair for my wife in white. Highly recommend.

Best headphones I've ever owned. The features are absolutely amazing. I don't work for Best Buy or it's affiliates, nor Bose, but this set of headphones are the game changer. Love the, as I call it, surround 360 follow sound feature. You turn your head and the sound adjusts around you as if you were walking away or closer to a main speaker. Maybe it should be called the live band effect. Awesome.

The sound is amazing. Which expected from Bose. Their ear cushion quality is less than expected. 103 days from the date of purchase and the cushions are separating at the seems. Bose said the cushions are an accessory and not part of the limited warranty....we did call Bose and they are standing behind their product. Just going to be upset when we have to replace them again in 3 months....at the cost of almost $50. To me, crap quality for $450...
Hello, Zach. The cushions for our headphone's are made from a protein leather, which can naturally deteriorate over time with use. This can be accelerated by environmental factors such as heat and humidity.

Headphones Are White Not Silver

The headphones function well and are very comfortable.They connect well to my devices via Bluetooth. My only criticism is the color. They are described as silver and the picture shows quute a bit of silver color. However, white dominates. I think they should be described as white. The carrying case is white. Had I known that white would dominate the color scheme, I would have selected blue or black.
