    In less than a year of ownership and with light use, the audio has started cutting out randomly. I keep it stored in the case when not in use. Premium quality products shouldn't develop issues this quickly.

      Hi there! Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your QuietComfort Headphones. Intermittent audio can happen due to several factors, including wireless interference, distance from the paired device, low battery levels on either device, or outdated software. Physical obstacles such as walls or metal surfaces can also weaken the signal, and in some cases, protective cases or certain devices may interfere with the connection.

      To help you resolve this, here's a troubleshooting guide: http://bose.life/4nh8u3H

      Hi Sheila, I'm sorry to hear that you experienced problems with calls. The fact the caller couldn't hear you may suggest that either something is blocking the microphone port, or your smartphone is incorrectly routing audio. Please check that the call is utilizing the microphone of the headphones during the call and not the smartphone's built-in microphone. If the headphones are selected as the mic source, I suggest unpairing and creating a new connection. Please also try restarting the smartphone.

    Unmatched Noise Cancellation, Great Sound Quality

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bose has delivered an exceptional product once again with the QuietComfort Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-the-Ear headphones. They come with a travel case, a USB C cable, and an audio cable with a built-in microphone. The setup process is incredibly straightforward, and the headphones work seamlessly straight out of the box. They pair easily with multiple devices and offer a multi-device connection for simultaneous use, making them very convenient. The headphones can be used without the app, though the accompanying Bose mobile application enhances the overall user experience and allows firmware updates. The headphones fit extremely well, seal nicely, and are still lightweight enough to allow listening sessions that last hours. They also have well-placed control buttons, although it may take some time to get used to the multi-function button on the right earcup since it controls various commands, but it quickly becomes intuitive. Using the Bose mobile application, you can customize the left button to open a selected app or perform a task. The build quality is superb, with high-quality plastic that feels solid and robust. Connection wise, you’ll find a USB-C plug for charging and a 3.5mm audio jack that allows for a hard-wired connection. The sound quality is crystal clear across all paired devices. Music wise, endless genres of tracks were played, and the headphones maintain Bose’s signature well-balanced, neutral tone. The call quality is truly impressive, with the mic and audio noise cancelling features working efficiently to reduce background noise and ensure your voice is heard clearly, even in noisy environments. The noise cancellation feature offers several sensitivity settings, with two primary modes - Quiet and Aware. Bose continues to lead the pack with their impressive active noise cancelling technology. The EQ settings are basic, but they are enough to offer a personalized audio experience. In summary, the Bose QuietComfort headphones are an excellent choice for those seeking a premium audio experience, requiring noise cancelling and multi-device connectivity. They effectively minimize moderate background noise, maintain a high-quality audio performance, and uphold voice clarity in noisy environments. Their premium price tag is justified by the superior quality they deliver. The Bose QuietComfort Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-the-Ear Headphones are a fantastic investment for anyone needing superior sound quality on the move.

      Hi Diane,

      Thanks for leaving your thoughts on the QuietComfort Headphones! The headphones build on our legacy of active noise cancellation products and the feature is no slouch in this model! Not getting the noise cancelling you expect? The QC Headphones offer custom modes which allow you to adjust the noise cancellation as you see fit!

      The Bose Music app makes pairing incredibly simple, and you can find useful instructions on our support page here: https://bose.life/46qUFa4

      If you need any additional assistance, we're here to help! Feel free to contact us via the details on https://bose.life/3ET4mCs.

      Hey, thanks for sharing your feedback on the Bose QuietComfort Headphones. They’re designed to deliver legendary noise cancellation, the headphones utilize both active and passive noise reduction technologies, with microphones placed inside and outside the earcups to sense and react to sound in real time, while the earcup fit and headband design provide passive reduction. Sorry to hear that hasn’t been your experience. Be sure to check out our helpful support article at https://bose.life/4jsJjui, which may improve your noise cancellation performance.

      For tips on keeping your headphones clean we recommend gently wiping the handle with a dry microfiber cloth after use and storing them in the protective case when not in use. Hope this helps!

    Popping noises after pausing

    Extremely disappointed after 8 years of incredible listening on the QC35ii. There’s a popping/distortion noise whenever you pause music, something with the chip is turning on and then turning off. Makes browsing Twitter or similar platforms where audio plays and pauses very jarring. Noticed it immediately and never had this problem with another pair of headphones.

    BestBuy sold me a used product as new

    I ordered online and picked up. Later in the evening I opened the package and tried to use. Turns out the unit was used. Upon inspecting the original box package it was clear the package had been opened, item placed in it, and then resealed. I was leaving on a 1 month trip out the country the next morning and could not go into the store. Upon returning BestBuy refused to replace the unit because it was beyond 30 days even though I had called the online number to report the problem. I’m fairly certain BeatBuy sold me a stolen headset that someone cleverly “washed” through a BestBuy buy/return.
