These are the best headphones I have ever used
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The most comfortable headphones I have ever used. I keep them on for hours so I can listen to the music on my iPad and and answer my cellphone at the same time.one of the nice features about these headphones you can do some stuff around the house and answer the cell phone with a push of a button. The sound quality is incredible. I happen to like music played in the club with lots of bass and high notes too. Hear the drums resonate.

wireless is worth it
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was afraid the sound quality wouldn't be as good with the bluetooth connection, but it is awesome. It's also awesome being able to walk around and get phone calls/ Totally worth it.

Great Sounding, Comfortable Headphones
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, I am loving these headphones and the convenience of having a set of quality, wireless headphones. Sound quality, as you would expect from Bose, is great and they are really comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. I do wish battery life was a bit longer, but an audio cable is included and can be connected while the Bluetooth module is charging. (Sound quality is also slightly better with the cable versus the Bluetooth, but that is true of any Bluetooth device.) I also like that the headphones can be connected two devices at once. So, if I'm watching a movie on my Mac and my phone rings, the audio will pause on the Mac and I can answer the phone and communicate via the mic that is built into the Bluetooth module.

Bose AE2 wireless .. Love it!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered these during Cyber Monday after reading all the positive reviews and I must say that I was not disappointed. I own a couple of other Bose products and this one is as solid as the other two. These headphones are good when you are not in a noisy environment ( no noise cancelling ) perfect for listening to music or movies on mobile devices/ laptops. Battery life is also decent ( around 6 hrs) but not as good as the newer model. I got this product at 60% less than the newer model on cyber Monday and for that price it's a no brainier.. Great buy!!

What do we expect from Bose? Quality & excellence
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great headphones and at a great price. There is nothing about these headphones that will let you down.....they could be a little louder but then again maybe thats a health factor and Bose thought about that too. I was able to connect to all my bluetooth devices with no issues. I was able to connect to multiple devices and take calls too! People actually told me they could hear me better than when I was on the phone without the headphones. I really enjoy my headphones and Im sure you will too. Bose makes a wonderful product...all of them.

Glad I went with Bose
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These phones sound just as good as my QC-15s. I plan to use them at the gym and at work. Hope they hold up. I thought about purchasing one of the competing products, but I went with Bose, because of the company's reputation, and I'm not disappointed. I was able to purchase spare ear cushions and a new inline mic cord for my QC-15s two years after I bought them. The other manufacturers abandon their products six months after they introduce them to the market. You get what you pay for.

Good but...
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a bad set of head phones. Sounds is clear as one would expect from Bose. However, the max volume is way too low. And bass is almost non-existent in these. Sound quality could be improved. Bought a pair of Beats studio wireless and compared both of them over a few days. Ended up returning the bose and kept the Beats. Too mild for the price.

Excellent build quality!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I picked these up not long ago and the sound quality of these headphones is amazing! It's what you would expect from Bose. I personally hate wires so the Bluetooth feature is what sold me on these. I also find the controls on the headphones are so easy to use! Forget Dre Beats and all that marketing hype, you can't go wrong with Bose.

BOSE vs Beats
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can't comment on the durability yet but i chose BOSE over beats, 1) better fit around my head, covers my whole ear. 2)better sound quality, BOSE, what can you ask for 3)clear with making calls 4) better noise cancelling qualities, I hope it lasts, i really like it i will buy the extra warranty tomorrow.

These are terrific headphones
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I finally broke down and bought new Bose AE2w headphones - I've owned two other Bose headphones - AE2 an IE2 - previously and loved the sound, so I sucked it up and paid the outrageously high price to go wireless with the AE2w. The AE2w has the same luxurious feel that I enjoyed with my wired over the ear AE2 headphones. Unlike other over the ear headsets, I can wear the AE2w for hours with no problem. I love the feel of these headphones. Truly, your ears feel like they’re being pampered. Construction of the headphones is very durable and easy to adjust. Clearly top quality. The real test was the sound, of course. I loved the sound of the AE2 . . . unlike any other brand of headphones I’ve tried, the Bose AE2 had the warm lower range and full bass that you get with high quality speakers. Other headphones lack the depth and warmth in the bass range and instead have a “middy” sound. So I knew the AE2 had the sound quality I wanted. My concern was that the wireless AE2w wouldn’t have the same quality. I tested the AE2w with Manheim Steamroller’s Carol of the Bells. The first 60 seconds of that song are the perfect test for highs, lows, sound separation, and clarity. The AE2w performed extremely well, just as good as the AE2. I thought the high end of the spectrum was a bit muffled, but a quick adjustment of the EQ cleaned that right up. My only other beef with the sound was volume – even when the headphones and the Ipod both are maxed in volume the music isn’t that loud. It’s loud enough for me but metal heads and volume junkies may not be satisfied. I ran a wide range of music through the AE2w, from classical to rock to country to male/female vocalists, and they all sounded wonderful. I detected no loss of quality from what I enjoyed from the AE2. The sound was unaffected as I moved away from the Ipod, even going from second to first floors and to the other side of the house. It wasn’t until I got all the way across the house that the sound began to cut off. .I was completely happy with the range of these headphones. Setup for the headphones was easy, in spite of the tiny print instructions in seven thousand different languages. Synching the headphones and Ipod went off seamlessly. I’ve run the headphones for over six hours and they still are going off the same charge. Every aspect of the setup and operation works beautifully. For this price I would have liked to get noise cancelling as well as wireless capabilities. I didn’t like the price tag so I tested a bunch of other headphones at Best Buy. I really wanted to find something else. Ultimately, out of frustration I even tried headphones that were priced the same – or even more – than the AE2w. Nothing that I tested matched the sound I get from the AE2w. I’m frustrated to have to spend $250 on headphones to get the sound I want with wireless capabilities, but I’m truly impressed with the quality of the AE2w. If you’re willing to spend that much on headphones, I think you’ll be really happy with these.

"Better Than Beats."
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just today I returned my wireless BEATS Headphones for BOSE AE2 Wireless. And once again Bose has proven itself to be a far superior product. Besides the fact they were ($20 Bucks less) they are 100 times more comfortable and the sound is the truest I've heard from a wirless set to date. I have eclectic musical taste, and ALL sounds good in my new Headset. Thanks BOSE for listening...

Remarkable headphones
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just bought these after reviewing several brands. My opinion, you can't beat Bose. I have a Lifestyle V25 surround system and a Series II surround for different rooms and I love them both. I knew these AE2W bluetooth headphones would be as great as all of my other Bose products and I have not been disappointed. I have to use the audio cable with my HP desktop since it doesn't have bluetooth but it's no problem. The music quality (highs and lows) are superb. The quality is equally awesome using the bluetooth capabilities with my iPad and iPhone. My daughter uses her Beats headphones and I've compared them to my AE2W's and I highly prefer and recommend Bose. I only wish they had the Noise canceling feature.

great headphones
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphone ive ever heard. Im a big fan of bose products. The sound and clearity is about average. An they are very comfortable to wear for long period of time. Also for them not being noise canceling headphones they block out backround noise very well.

Great headphone for noobs
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ok so these were my first headphone ever, let me say I was highly disappointed with these headphones. The sound quality was average at best. I did not like these at all. The volume was super low and did a bad job at canceling noise. The blutooth feature was the only nice thing i can say about it. I ended up returning these for my 250$. If you're new to sound get these but i feel there are better headphones are lower prices then this. Not worth it in my opinion Sorry.

Best Bluetooth Headphones I've used
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just purchased these headphones 3 days ago, and I have to admit I am extremely impressed. I wear glasses, and have usually been limited to in-ear headphones when wanting to go wireless and remain comfortable. Having grown tired of in-ear buds falling out all the time, I decided to try these. I was amazed at how comfortable they are with glasses, and overall how easy it was to get them set up. I connected with both my iPad Mini and HTC One, and the transitions between the two for both music, video, and phone calls have been seemless with the multipoint technology. I also love how the headphones can be used with an included cable while the bluetooth module is charging. I havent tried it yet, but I have a feeling the removable bluetooth module can be connected to larger speakers with an Aux input for wireless listening at home. The sound quality is great, but don't expect the same bass "punch" as in-ear headphones. Overall, I would recommend these to anyone looking to cut the cord and go wireless with around-ear headphones.

Comfortable headset with great sound
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great set of headphones. Pairing is easy and I am able to pair it to my iPad and iPhone at the same time. The headphones fit all the way over the ears so it does block out some sound but they are not noise canceling. Sound is really awesome for being bluetooth. Sometimes when watching videos on my iPad, the sound is not synchronized with the video. I think this is more a bluetooth issue and not the headphones. I just switch off the headphone and back on and everything is good. I have taken phone calls while wearing these and everyone that I talked to said i sounded fine. They did not know I was using bluetooth headphones. They are a little pricey but, hey, it's Bose. You are getting a quality product.

AMAZING
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love Bose products. Rarely disapointed. I had purchased the new QC25 headphones. Those were disappointing ! Sound quality was weak and the cable would disconnect too easily, very annoying ! These however, TOP NOTCH ! Love wireless connection, and the sound quality is impressive ! Crisp highs, clean mids, warm well ballanced bass. Buy these !!! Don't let the price push you away, you'll love em
