Silent noise cancelation - 'tism friendly

Very comfortable headphones for longtime wear. Great sound as to be expected by Bose. My ears are sensitive to the pressure or buzzing noise cancellation usually causes & these do a great job.

It's the flagship of headphones

I've been a Bose customer for years now and they continue to impress me. They continue to improve the quality, the feel, and the look. I look forward to what they come up with in the future.

Perfect for office, not ideal for gym

I got my headphones about a month ago and I'm loving it. I use it everyday, and the battery life is insane, the audio quality is amazing, and the noise control is out of this world. My only two complains are that the headphones don't really stay on if you're laying back, so if you're doing benchpress, they keep slipping off, and wearing it for workouts, depending how I move my head it triggers the on-head sensor and it pauses my music while I'm still wearing it. Considering how much I wear these headphones and those are the only issues I have with it, those being very niche and unique, I consider these very much worth investment.

Lovely

The product is excellent, perfect in many ways. However, sometimes the headphone's audio doesn't pause after the right side audio port is removed. It isn't constant so I'm ok with it.

Pretty Good

I like it. Occasionally,when I'm walking around the house with the headset on, it starts to think I'm taking them out and on and pauses the audio. But other than that, it's great.

Extremely Disappointed

I loved my old Bose headphones purchased in 2022, my kid needed headphones so I gave those to him and purchased the upgraded version solely for the noise cancellation, but the noise cancellation is horrible! I tried them at the gym first on "quiet mode" and then "workout mode," but neither one worked. I could hear the gym music playing in the background while I had my music on. The only way I was able to tune out the gym noise was by raising the volume to the highest level. I shouldn't have to do that. I have AirPods that tunes out outside noise soon as I put them on, but I wanted to switch up things a bit by trying these. I am so disappointed.

Replacing my aging Bose SoundLink around ears

Bought the Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 to replace my aging Bose SoundLink around ear wireless headphones and I couldn't be more happy with my purchase. The noise canceling is fantastic and the sound is very good to my ears. I don't regret shelling money on these headphones.

I bought this a few months ago and the experience so far has been great but there really somethings that need to be changed, sometimes the headphones make a squeaking sound you move your head even a little bit, also you cant turn off or change the audio feedback given by the headphones everytime you turn it off or on and a new device is connected and the bose app equalizer is not very useful

Good, not great

The headphones are fine. I haven't used over the head headset like this in a long time, I am usually an earbuds person. But since I work remotely and I am on the phone and on Teams all day everyday, the earbuds started irritating my ears and I wanted to get something more comfortable for all day use. These are definitely more comfortable, and the battery life is pretty incredible. I've had these headphone for like a month now and I use them all day, and I think I've charged them maybe 3 or 4 times. The audio is good, clear, and sounds very nice. I will say, however, there are definitely some drawbacks. 1. For example, if I have multiple devices paired to the headphones, there is no functionality on the actual headphone to switch between devices. The only way to switch between connected devices is by opening the app, navigating to "Source," and selecting the device you want to use. So, if you don't have your device directly on you, you can't switch between connected devices. The only thing you can do directly from the headset is up/down the volume, long-touch the volume sensor to hear the battery level, and switch between "modes." But that's not helpful when I am connected to both my computer and my phone. 2. Also, the Noise Canceling is subpar. and the Wind Noise Reduction is almost nonexistent. The Noise Canceling itself is not terrible. But it's 2026, so I was shocked when I switched from earbuds to the headset. But with respect to the Wind Noise Reduction, there is almost no ability for these headphone to cancel wind noise. You definitely hear the wind loudly when any amount of wind is blowing past your headphone. If you sit in front of a fan, or if you want to use these on the beach or anywhere with a breeze, be prepared to hear a lot of wind noise. Even with the "Wind Noise" toggle, it doesn't sufficiently cancel any of the wind noise. If you are just sitting inside listening to music or at your computer, they are good headphones. 3. For phone calls, or Teams calls, I have been told that my voice on calls sounds a muffled, but I can't directly speak to that because I have not heard my own voice on a call yet. But I have been told by multiple people that it sounds like I am talking into a pillow. I've had the QC Ultra Gen 2 Earbuds for about 1 month longer than the headphones, and they were defective! My left earbud would never charge. And then after the 4th week of owning them, the left earbud died completely and there was absolutely nothing I could do to get it to charge. So I had to send it back to Bose to get a replacement, and it is taking foreverrrrrrr. They told me 8 to 14 business days I would have it back after sending it to them. But they pay for the cheapest shipping, and it took over a week to reach them. Now, it's been nearly 2 weeks since they received my earbuds and I *still* haven't had any update about when I will receive my earbuds back. And honestly, as good as the earbuds are, I must say that I do not like the touch functionality. For example, it snowed alot this winter and so I was outside shoveling. When I put a hat on my head, the earbuds think I am touching the sensor, and so it continuously cycles through all the functions!! So I had to fold my hat above my ears if I wanted to use the headphones while shoveling snow. I am a little disappointed with Bose. I used to see Bose as the gold standard in audio products. I used to have a 5.1 surround sound home theater system and I loved it. But, now, in my new home, I am shopping around for home audio, because sadly, Bose seems to be losing its luster...

Bose Second Gen Headphone

As I am riding the bus, and the bus rides over different obstacle in the road, the right speaker starts to making a thumping noise for every times it hit something. But this pair is better than the orginal.

VERY good EXCEPT?

I bought this 10 days ago or so and the immediate immersive audio is insane and the noise cancellation amazing the only thing I've found wrong is a slight ringing noise with the nc but I have them to someone and they couldn't hear it anyways they are extremely comfortable and another problem could be sweating as I found only resting at home my ears still ended up a bit sweaty another feature I love is you can rest them (shown in the photo) and they will disconnect Bluetooth in 3-5 seconds and turn of in 10 minutes a cool feature the headphones also have a very easy app where you can choose modes and add extra shortcuts for the buttons another reason why this isn't 5 stars is that the volume slider on the headphones should be a dial as it isn't very precise. fabulous product nevertheless!

Bose headphones

In compassion to my Sony headphone, I can see a slight difference in the sound. I also feel that the headphones looks greater better. I have a case for it and it can be used where I needed the most like airplane computer my bedroom TV and so far so I'm looking at it is being a great product so far.

Comfortable and good sound but buggy

Very comfortable and good sound. But frequent problems with no sound after connecting. I tried restarting it many times, disconnecting it on the other device, and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

Love them!! ?? A gym bro/girlie necessity!

I absolutely love these headphones! ?????? I got them for Christmas and they are actually want I wanted! They are so perfect for the gym since I can either lock in with the "Immersion" (or "Cinema") mode or be a little more aware of my surroundings, without having to remove my headphones with the "Aware" mode! I love that there is a user friendly app to adjust the settings of my headphones and I can even name them on the app as well! Such a small but adorable touch to really personalize them! (And the color is fire!! ????)

My Experience

I bought this product a few weeks ago and I've had a really great experience. It is really quiet and mutes most low frequency sounds. It kinda struggles quieting super loud noises but that's to be expected for most headphones. As I've said really mutes all other noises. I like the foam, it's soft and doesn't burn immediately and really comfortable to use. I wish the top part could be replaced after usage because mine already has really visible dents, but it's really good material. One feature I wish they implemented was that they would add transparency mode when the headphones detect speech or a conversation, would be really nice, also more eq options and active transparency features for any new modes I add. Would recommend!

I bought this product a couple months ago, great audio quality but lacks in the volume department. if they were a little louder with more eq options they would be a perfect day to day selection for headphones

Nice sound, not durable?

I purchased these headphones just over a year ago and was initially impressed by the sound. I didn't end up using them that often as I found them to be hot and not breathable. After a year of light use (maybe a dozen times), the ear pads were wearing out and Bose refused to replace them. I continue to reach for my earbuds as they are more comfortable and durable.

Amazing sound and dual connection function

By SonicDaemon69

As you would expect, the sound quality is second to none. Headphones are extremely comfortable to wear for long periods of time. My favourite feature, however, is the dual connection feature. I can have them connected to my iPhone and my works laptop and the headphones switch between if a call comes in on Teams. Awesome feature!
