Ms Bluetooth Headset

I have only had the Bose Ultra Headphones for a week. But I have had the opportunity to test them in a variety of situations: At home listening to music, using them for work on MS teams meetings, phone calls, and watching movies on my tablet; Commuting to work on a train and then walking to the office building in downtown Chicago; In an open work environment taking MS teams meetings and listening to music. In every situation, they have exceeded my expectations. I have used profiles for Quiet, Immersive, and Aware. Here is where I feel each performs its best: - I prefer “Quiet” mode when I am on phone calls and for some types of music. - “Immersive” works well for most music but is really awesome when watching a movie. - The “Aware” mode worked as expected when I wanted to hear people around me or when I was walking on the street in Chicago. I was curious what I could hear on the street and it was pretty much everything like passing cars, people talking, and animals. These are the areas I have liked and disliked so far in my time using them. Pros: - Best noise canceling headphones I have ever used. The train and office really sold me on how well these cancel the world around you. - Great for listening to music and watching movies. - Extremely comfortable even when wearing for multiple hours. - They are mostly plastic but they look and feel premium to me. - The case that comes with them is molded to support the headphones which is a first for Bose that I am aware of. Cons: - I have experienced a few software issues related to Bluetooth connections. I was able to work around these either via the Bose Music app or powering the device off and on. - The highest price for a Bose headset yet. While I hope a software update will resolve the few issues I noted they do not change my opinion of the headset. I would very much recommend this to my friends and family. If you are looking for a headset and can afford it, this is the one to buy. Just go get it and enjoy!

this works to connect my PC with bluetooth headset

Use MS drivers not those provided and this will be a great bluetooth adapter. The software provided is fraught with many problems. Do not load their software. It won't work properly and be limited in speed. Their tech support does not help any either if you have software difficulties. Use their SW at your own risk.

I use this Bluetooth headset for everyday use and workouts. Very comfortable and flexible to take everywhere with you.

Best bluetooth headset that I have had so far. I've gone through two sony headsets in the past few months and these are by far the best I've come across.

Bought the headset about a month ago, needed a replacement for my JBL Quantum 200's. Overall the product is top tier, the sound quality is crisp, clean, and (often times) very loud. Pros: - Long battery life (while wireless), in my experience it gets a solid 30-32 hours whilst connected to the included dongle, and right around 43 hours with Bluetooth only. The headset can be connected via Bluetooth AND the dongle at the same time. Note; I do have the RGB function disabled on my headset, which extends the battery life by a *ton*. - Good range on the wireless connection, both Bluetooth and dongle. - Capability to be wired with USB-C (console), or 3.5mm jack going into a headphone/mic splitter (PC) - Amazing mic quality *while connect via wires*. Honestly the mic's balance and quality is on par with some dedicated desk/boom mic's that I've had in the past. - Very comfy fit, I can easily wear them for 5-6 hours straight with no issues. Very little wiggle on my head, even when vigorously shaking or bobbing my head. - Active noise cancelling is so good that it's almost disorienting. Being able to hear most of the environment around you just vanish really is a harrowing and alien experience after never having used it before. The noise cancelling is togglable from a button on the left earphone. There is also a Talk through function, for when you need to hear everything around you or carry on a conversation. - Audio has next to zero delay whilst wireless. I've played quite a few CS:GO and Valorant games, relying almost entirely upon audio cues/footsteps. Not once did I notice any delay that ever affected gameplay. Con(s): - Uhm... Mic quality whilst wireless decreases substantially? Less of a con, more of a side effect to ANY wireless connection. Over all; If I could give this headset a 6/5 stars, I would. It really is one of the most versatile pieces of tech that I own.

The two things that I appreciate the most are, 1. 3xcellent sound quality and, 2. It's refreshing for my ears to be able to breathe while talking on a Bluetooth headset.

Love the reception and my surroundings keeps me very aware what's going on around me. Totally a upgrade from my other Bluetooth headset

This is not my first but is the first I bought with the charging case. If you buy the headset and charging case separate you don’t get the Bluetooth dongle which is another $50. If you buy it as a package, you get the charger, headset and Bluetooth dongle for less than you would pay for it individually. A good deal and a great headset.

I owned an open ear headset about 10 years ago. I didn't have Bluetooth available in my car so I used them whenever I was driving. I could listen to the music in the car and still have my ears open to whatever was going on if I received a phone call. I used my first ones until they eventually wore out. It's great to be back with this open ear Bluetooth device. They're much lighter than the original one I had and they sound great.
