The Bose around ear Bluetooth set sounded great for a Bluetooth headset! They were very comfortable and not using wires was awesome! Everything was clear, the sound was accurate. I might have preferred just a touch more bass though. I chose these over Beats based on reviews of comfort.
I used them on a flight for a couple of movies. Had iPad volumes maxed or one click under max the whole time. Could still hear the jet engine. I didn't get the QC25 because it's wired only. Rumors of Apple dropping aux jack support on next iPhone made me not want to invest $300 in phones that need to plug in. Although there will most like be an adapter.
In the end, I returned these for a few reasons. I wasn't crazy about the look of the blue. The all black qc25 looks way better to me. But that's minor to many people. The other reason is the lack of noise cancelling. I knew it when I purchased, but hopes the around ear design would block more jet engine sound.
I'll probably buy the next version of these headphones once I know what Apple does with the aux jack and if Bose makes a noise cancelling Bluetooth model with better styling.
Purely on comfort and sound tho 5/5.

I bought these headphones for my girlfriend because she commutes via metra to the city every day. That's about 3 hours round trip and her over the ear SOL headphones were starting to hurt after extended use. After extensive research we finally decided on the Bose wireless over the ear headphones. They're ubelievably comfortable and the sound is phenomenal, dare I say unmatched. The battery life is great and last her a few days without having to recharge and if in a pinch only recharges them for half an hour and she has a surprising amount of battery life. We have no complaints what so ever. If we were forced to find a flaw it would be that the case may be to bulky but that is a non issue. You cannot go wrong with these headphones.

Can't expect anything less from Bose. They made a perfect product and I bought it at an awesome deal on Best buy. I would like to talk about few of the concerns people posted regarding this product over other models.
1. Noise Isolation: it's not noise cancelling but it removes almost all of the surrounding noise. I used it in flight and all you can hear is a mild high pitch engine noise. It gets completely removed once the volume is above average levels. I feel the mild environmental noise is good to keep you aware while walking or sitting with other people.
2. Battery: hands down one of the best battery life. Easily lasts for 10hrs and I charge once every 3 days. Gets to full charge in 2 to 3 hrs.
3. Sound quality: Excellent vocal and instrumental performance. Bass is lesser than other products such as Beats. But buy it if you are not listening to hip-hop/ deep bass songs all the time.
4. Value for money: easily the best value for money available if you are not so concerned about noise cancellation ( which I feel is kind of useless in most cases).

Switched from Beats. Not as much base but the overall sound quality is very good. Purchased mainly for air travel, made the right choice! These are lighter than the Beats but way more comfortable. No complaints.

Con: has a proprietary smaller headphone jack on the headphones, so not every aux cable will fit.
Pros: Lightweight, comfortable padding, long battery, amazing sound quality.
I mostly use this for playing games (witcher 3, skyrim, etc) and they are great.
Clarity is good at higher volumes as well. Bass leaves a little to be desired in the very low end, but is crystal clear.
The battery life is also pretty good. I can get almost 7-10 hours of use out of them with on and off music/audiobooks and the occasional phone call throughout the day.

Really comfortable headphones. Even after wearing them for over 2 hrs still very comfortable. Outstanding crisp clean sound. Wireless feature excellent with no dropouts. A bit pricey but very happy I purchased. Tried Sony first but returned them within 2 days.

These wireless headphones hit the spot. I did a lot of research prior to buying these and I am very glad that I went with the Bose. I read a couple of negative reviews online about them dropping connection or having weak volume, buy I can say I haven't had either of those problems. For the last 2 months I have used them at the gym and at home. Every time you turn them on they tell you what percent battery life is left. Makes it great for judging when to plug them in. My jaybird wireless headphones just say low battery and then die 10 minutes later. The sound on these things are incredible. Couldn't wish for clearer and cleaner sounding music. I use them with a Droid turbo for my music. Any time my phone rings the music stops and the headphones tell you who is calling. It has great phone chat clarity. They also work very well on my Mac book air. I use them to watch movies or Skype and they haven't let me down. All in all I highly recommend these. Worth the price.

I'm very hard of hearing, not deaf but after shouting to me, you might think so. Knowing that, I've tried just about every set of headphones out there... starting from way back. I'm retired now so way back equates to many, many headsets. Noice cancelling is good, but if I can't hear that background noice anyway... so comfort and ability to hear are my priority. These headsets make me feel almost like a normal hearing person, I hear just about everything I'm listening to. Wireless is amazing and comfort of wear has spoiled me. They charge up quickly and easily and even if the battery is on the lower side, quality of sound is not compromised. We've always loved Bose, now we have yet another reason to love them even more. Bose simply cannot be beat for their quality of sound, and coming from a near deaf person... ! Now if only technology would catch up and let the TV Sound come through the Bose Sound Bar and be heard through the headphones. Presently only the TV Sound will reach these headsets and isn't designed to be used with the sound bar... very very disappointing, but certainly not the headsets or sound bars fault. I have every confidence that eventually this technology will exist and when it does, I'll be the first in line to pick it up! Thank you Bose, for yet another incredible product. Comfortable, amazing sound and incredible quality. Well worth every cent!

My son asked for these. Said they were the best sound ever. I can confirm that. Wireless lets you move. Love that they wrap around the ears (they don't sit on them). And they are incredibly light.

These sound great, are lightweight and are very comfortable. In addition, they sound good for calls, which was imperative for me as I wanted to use these for work calls as well. While not noise cancelling, they actually do a pretty decent job of minimizing outside ambient noise which is a plus.
My one "gripe" if I have one with these is that the cord that comes with the headphones for non-powered support does not come with a microphone. Thus, when/if you plug the wire in to a source, it is purely audio only. Small issue, mainly b/c I also wanted to directly connect this to my Playstation controller.

I purchased the Bose headphones without reading any reviews which I never do and I am glad I did. Pairing is a breeze, I have them currently paired to an ipad, and laptop. They sound great, the bass is not to overwhelming and the tones seem in line with a pair of wired headphones. They are light and comfortable to wear for long periods of time and mine are averaging 13 to 14 hours before needing to be charged. The controls are simple to use and seem to be built much better then some I have had in the past. The case is lightweight and more then adequate. This review is based on listening to all genres of music and audio books which really sound great.

This is a great set of headphones, I bought them for my wife's bday, great battery life, good sound but maximum volume is not that high, they are light and feel perfect on head and ears. Will recommend to anyone looking for a new pair. It comes with its own case, usb and aux cables. The mic works flawless, you can be walking down the street and the voice would sound perfect and the noise of the cars won't be a problem.

Incredible sound quality and clarity, Bose certainly lives up to their reputation when it comes to audio sound. Best part is bluetooth connectivity can be controlled via BOSE iphone app. I think it can store up to 8 bluetooth devices(iphone, ipad, laptop etc) & easy to switch. Extremely comfortable, lightweight, Bluetooth connects quickly. Only improvement required is USB charging port. This makes it somewhat inconvenient-especially when traveling. Overall I'm very happy with the product & highly recommend it.

Comfortable Headphones with Quality Sound

I purchased these headphones with the intent of using them for my online classes this semester, seeing as my roommate and I would have overlapping zoom classes so I could not just play audio out loud.
Bose is well recognized for its sound quality, and the SoundLink headphones lived up to the same status. While they are not as punchy as some high-end headphones I've tried on here and there, they deliver crisp and clear audio.
Additionally, the headphones are mostly made of plastic as well as some sort of soft plush or felt. The headphones have not broken at all, but the build quality feels cheap. I believe this is where most of the split between high-end premium headphones and this set lies.
On the other hand, I use these headphones for sometimes 4-5 hours straight and they do not hurt my ears. The sound is well balanced as well, so it does not rattle your brain. Personally, this is what sold the headphones for me.
The SoundLink headphones come with three buttons to adjust volume and pause music. The Bluetooth is easy to set up, especially with NFC, and I have never had connection issues (but there is a small lag in playing audio with Bluetooth). The battery life is extensive and does not run out on me after a day's use.
The price is not cheap, but the SoundLink headphones sure do provide comfortable wear for long days. The sound quality is good, but not as good as it could be. The headphones feel cheap, but if you want something transportable and simple to use, these are the headphones for you.

Bose, as always, is top quality for sound. Even without going for the extra noise cancelling version, this set of headphones is excellent at a reasonable price. Both indoor and outdoor ambient noise is drowned out to a notable degree with the thick, sound muffling over-the-ear cups that are spacious and comfortable. And lightweight enough not to weigh on the ears or head with 8 hours of continuous wearing.

I have owned many other Bluetooth Headphones and these Bose sound good. They have a nice balanced sound with clear mids and highs. The bass is punchy and not overpowering. If you love the bass that shakes your head these are not for you. They are not the loudest set of headphones and they do not have noise reduction. If you like a nice balanced sound to use in a not so noisy environment these are a good buy.

This product is the most comfortable headphones I ever had. They are very clear sounding, but not too much bass. I have a pair of audio technica m50 that also sound great. They are a little different but in the same quality range. The bose are more expensive, but they are wireless. Sometimes you forget you even have them on. I think there are better sounding headphone out there that are in the same prize range, but the bose are really good and are not underwhelming.
