Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones With Bass

Have 2 other Bose Noise-Cancelling headphones over the years and I always felt somewhat disappointed in the quality of the noise cancelling, but figured this is what it is. Now I know differently. These Sony headphones literally shut down nearly all the noise where I can't hear anyone talking to me and priced reasonably, unlike the Bose or Apple headphones.

Ive had several other noise cancelling headphones by Bose (QC35 II) and Beats (Studio Wireless) and I always hailed Bose as king of Noise Cancelling headphones. Now the only thing that Bose has over Sony is the durability of the headphones, my Bose headphones I could pretty much bend however I wanted and they wouldn't break. The Sony's are a bit more stiff, but the material is still premium! I originally went with Bose because of their comfort though, I like to wear my headphones for an extended period of time and the old Sony's (XM1 and XM2) got uncomfortable after a few hours. With the new design however, I can see myself wearing these all day! What does Sony have to offer that's better than Bose? - Noise cancelling (much better) - Sound quality - Battery life - Customization through app - Accessories (better quality auxiliary charger cords, as well as a good airplane adapter!!) - USB-C Charger!!! (as a MacBook Pro owner this was a must, I hated micro-usb so much) - Comfort? (I'm still testing this out but ill update in a few weeks if its better or on-par with the Bose QuietComfort 35 ii)

This is my first pair of new Bose headphones since I purchased my Bose noise cancelling headphones roughly 6 years ago. The difference in the audio experience and the noise cancelling features is hands down the best yet! The fit and feel of the headphones are very comfortable, lightweight, and fit the contour of my head very nicely. Aesthetically, the headphones look top-notch and very well put together. Battery life is more than I would ever need in any given go, but I have yet to run into any performance or charging issues. Pairing the headphones with the Bose app was seamless, and the product demonstration/tutorial was fantastic. I fly a lot for work and for anyone wanting to tune out the white noise of air travel and have a truly immersive audio experience, look no further than the Bose QuietComfort Ultra.

My Bose Quiet Comfort Headphones arrived a couple of weeks ago and they have quickly become one of the things I look most forward to after a long work day. Forget Calgon… my QuietComfort Ultra’s take me away! I didn’t think it was possible to improve upon the sound quality I’ve come to love with my Bose products… but it seems Bose is “winning” with the release of their new headphones. Set up was easy… after charging the headphones,, it only took a couple of minutes…if that. I first had to download the Bose App to my device and then added the headphones to my account. I can control all the features from the App and the primary ones directly on the headphones. I set my preferable modes on the product and can easily make changes as necessary. My favorite setting…complete immersion. This setting uses the highest noise cancelling level and plays immersive audio in the motion setting. Definitely next level quality sound. I’m able to easily answer calls as they come in as well. The call clarity on my end is perfect… cancelling outside noise distractions of passing emergency vehicles with blaring sirens… and of course the occasional barking dog. I have to take time to locate the speaker in that callers say I’ve sounded muffled at times. It’s possible something is partially covering the speaker …. Maybe it’s my hair, but I’ll figure it out as I continue exploring the features of my new headphones. With that, noise cancelling sound immersion is what I need at the end of a long day. I can unwind to the musicality of contemporary jazz… that sounds like I’m live in studio. Try them for yourself… you won’t be disappointed.

I went into B&H looking for a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. The floor attendant told me that it would be mostly a toss-up between Sony and Bose for top-of-the-line equipment. I eventually settled on Sony because I was more interested in listening to natural voice than to bass and musical effects. So far so good. I am happy with the performance, which kept my ears protected during the 9-hour flight home.

At first I thought these didn't fit well enough on my QC35 Bose headphones and would impact noise cancelling quality, but after a couple of days they settled in nicely. My QC35s are a few years old and I already had to replace the original vinyl ear padding once, so I was looking for some extra protection so I wouldn't have to do it again. These fit the bill and are very comfortable against my ears.

Those are the best noise cancelling headphones on the market right now i have the Bose QC35 but Sony did an better much better job

I am a long time Bose noise cancelling headphone customer. This is my third pair of Bose noise cancelling headphones, my first pair was back in 1990 when my job required a lot of air travel. I am now retired from corporate life but my wife and I own a small online business. I run laser engravers as part of that business and the cooling and exhaust fans create about 70dB of background noise which can cause hearing loss with repeated exposure. In my case, this exposure is 3-4 hours per day so noise cancelling is a must. These headphones are amazing. I can enjoy listening to music, podcasts and more while I work and the fan noise is all but eliminated. I also use them with my Bose Smart Soundbar 600 when I want to watch a movie or sports game on TV while my wife is running sewing or embroidery machines in the open area next to our family room. On-headphone controls are easy and the Bose Music iOS app can be used to adjust equalization. Did I mention answering phone calls, easy with a single button click. I know this review may sound like I am a Bose "schill" but I am just a very satisfied customer over 3 decades of using and listening to Bose products.

I have owned other noise cancelling headphones before, including Bose and a previous version of Sonys WH series. These are by far the best I have experienced, in terms of how much silence they can produce as soon as you put them on.  In addition, the power consumption is very impressive. Over the last few days, I have used them for a few hours (at least 4-5) and the power remained at approximately 80% according to the companion app and the headphone itself. How efficiently these headphones use power is a big factor for me during longer trips. Lastly, they are very well made, are the perfect weight (not too light and flimsy, and not too bulky and heavy). And given they are not your traditional black color, have a more premium look and feel. If you are spending around $350 for a set of noise-cancelling headphones, Id definitely recommend these!

I have own several Bose noise cancelling headphones as well as Beats wireless as well. I was curious and listened to it at store and was impressed by the sound and the noise cancelling!!! I took this on a flight last weekend and it worked great. Give it a listen!
