QuietComfort Ultra Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones with Spatial Audio, Over-the-Ear Headphones with Mic, Up to 24 Hours of Battery Life, White Smoke 2023

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones deliver a very strong performance in noise cancellation — thanks to their advanced ANC system and 8-microphone setup, they effectively block out ambient noise so you can fully immerse in your music.Sound quality is naturally balanced and clear, supported by Bose’s CustomTune technology which tailors the audio to your ears for a personalized listening experience. The immersive “Immersion” mode really elevates spatial audio: in “Still,” the sound stays fixed in space, while “Motion” makes it feel like it's following you.Comfort-wise, the over-ear design uses soft, plush materials that feel very gentle, even during long walks or flights. The headphones weigh only 0.25 kg, making them lightweight for over-ear ANC.Battery life is pretty solid, with up to 24 hours in Quiet/Aware mode and around 18 hours if you use the immersive spatial audio. They also support a 15-minute quick charge, giving you about 2 hours of playback.On the software side, the Bose app lets you customize EQ, change between modes (Quiet, Aware, Immersion), and define your own audio presets. Plus, Bluetooth Multipoint is a nice touch: you can connect the headphones to two devices at once and switch seamlessly.These are excellent premium noise-cancelling headphones that shine when you want serious sound isolation, comfort, and immersive audio. If you need long battery life as a top priority, there might be better options — but for ANC quality and build comfort, the QC Ultra is hard to beat.

Great headphones as expected. Coming from the QC 35 II there is a noticeable difference in noise cancelling. The cushions might not be as plush and soft as on the QC, but the diameter is bigger so they better fit around my ears.I just wished for a few more buttons to control the headphones as I find it easier than by touching.

Excellent product

Bought my pair of Bose QuietComfort Ultra a year ago. No words how disappointing this purchase has been. The problem is with the codec the device use, to connect via Bluetooth. Most Android phones, Laptops and IOS only connect on normal SBC and AAC codec. That means you pay for a premium sound device and get average sound, which a normal cheap headphone, will give you the exact quality. I had to buy a separate audio codec device, that need to be, plugged into my phone or laptop, just to get the HD sound quality. I regret this purchase.

Sometimes it shows connected but it does not work, need to reconnect. Other than that, it is great product.

The best headphones without a doubt, I've tried more than 5 headsets, but nothing beats BOSE ! Period !

excellent quality

Bose has easily the best over the head ANC headphones in the market. This one is even better than the previous models. Great battery life (lasted me a whole 12h flight of non stop ANC use)

*Please be aware this review is being written from a totally blind person's perspective. *As I’ll be one of the first to review these headphones due to how new they are, I’ll try to go into as much detail as possible. First off, upon opening the box, you are greeted by a simple layout. The box purely contains the case and the manual. The case is more of an oval shape compared to the NC700, which is more of a square. Inside the case you’ll find the headphones, USB C to A charging cable and an audio cable if you want to connect it to a wired source.Opening the case up, the headphones feel very sleek, around the same size as other pairs, but the first thing I noticed was the fact the cushions mould seamlessly with the headphones, creating a complete seal. There is not that tiny gap like on the NC700 and others. What I liked immediately though was the fact the cushions slip into place with the use of six little tabs which simply snap into place. It’s a lot easier, for me at least, than trying to line them up with a tiny crack as with previous designs.When you turn them on, they have to be on both ears to activate, so Bose can use its tuning technology to personalise to the shape of your ears. This has to be done every time you put them on, turning them on with only one earcup in place won’t work.They truly live up to their name of ‘quiet comfort,’ I am wearing them right now as I type this, and you can almost forget you’re wearing headphones, you can hardly feel them, they almost mould to your head. They truly do hug your ears. The most comfortable pair I’ve ever owned. I also like how the Bluetooth and power button is slightly indented, whereas the multi-function button is perfectly smooth. The volume strip is also able to be felt, and I love how you just swipe it with a finger to change the volume, and you can also configure a shortcut to it, in the Bose Music App.Now moving on to connecting them, it’s just the same as with previous Bose headphones. Turn them on, you’ll hear the tone, and then the voice prompt will tell you they are ready to connect. Select your device and away you go. You can also store up to 8 Bluetooth devices in the headphones, which is a nice feature.The noise cancelling is without doubt the best I have heard yet. You can hardly hear anything when it’s on ‘quiet’ mode. You can also adjust the level of ANC you want, plus in aware mode, there are also ‘active sense’ settings, which block out loud noises by briefly turning on ANC, then turn it off again when the sound stops. This is good for if you're in a restaurant and a blender starts up, for example. These also have ‘wind block’ which mutes the microphones for NC while you’re on a call, so you don’t hear the wind against them. The person on the other end will still hear it though.Now the highlight, the immersive audio. I personally think it’s incredible. I’ve heard details in my music I’d never heard before, it gives the song or other content a completely new layer of depth. Bose weren’t kidding about that. I also have the Apple Air pods Max and these knock spots off those for their spacial audio and head tracking. It really does sound like the music is coming from a speaker in front of you, it sounds like the speaker nearest you when you turn your head, whichever way you turn it. I flicked between spacial and stereo, and I tell you what, I’ll never go back. Stereo sounds bland in comparison to this. I will always use spacial now wherever possible. The base is full, as is the treble and mid-range. You don’t miss anything, just like the artist intended. If you’re like me, you won’t go back either!As soon as I heard these were coming out, I just had to get them. It’s my birthday next month and my family said they would pay for them, but I just had to have them now and wow I do not regret it at all, and neither will you! Just one final note, I researched it last night and Bose will be releasing Ultra ear cushion kits for these headphones soon so we can buy replacements, if necessary, mine will probably wear quickly the amount I’m going to use them. I’ll probably use them on my work laptop too. All in all, yes, their pricey, but your ears will thank you, for both the superior comfort and second to none sound at the same time. Worth every penny, happy listening!Edit: (Because I struggled with this too,) if you want to clear the Bluetooth list and start over, press the power and multi-function buttons at the same time for a few seconds while the headphones are on, until the voice says 'bluetooth device list cleared.'

Se você tem interesse e tiver disponibilidade financeira, pode comprar, vale a pena!Esse fone de ouvido é sensacional, sempre quis ter um fone com cancelamento de ruído de ponta, mas também sempre tive receio de me arrepender em razão dos preços. O mais barato dessas linhas de luxo é R$1.700 (1000xm4), então não se trata de uma compra que você faz no sábado a tarde despretensiosamente.Mas o preço é justificado (até certo ponto) pela qualidade em geral do produto, o material e construção são de alta qualidade, até o momento (10 meses) não vejo nenhum desgaste externo; A qualidade do som é muito boa, talvez não tanto para audiófilos, mas para o ouvinte comum é perfeita; A bateria é excelente, durando muito tempo mesmo, inclusive me surpreendendo quando tenho que carregar; Ele vem com uma case que é de extrema qualidade e funcionalidade; Tudo nele vale a pena, mas o que se destaca e, o motivo pelo qual provavelmente você pensa em comprá-lo, é o cancelamento de ruído.O cancelamento de ruído nesse fone beira o inacreditável; Já testei o fone no ônibus, avião, carro, escritório e os resultados sempre me impressionam. Por alto, eu chuto que ele deva cancelar uns 90% dos ruídos. Se você não estiver ouvindo nada (música, etc) provavelmente vai continuar ouvindo algum ruído de fundo, mas em um nível bem inferior. Se colocar uma música em volume baixo, só escutará ela. É realmente incrível o poder do cancelamento de ruído do fone, creio que a tecnologia não deva ir muito além disso.O ponto negativo do cancelamento de ruído é que, quando você desativa ele ou tira o fone, tem que ouvir alguns ruídos/sons que não tinha consciência que existiam (ar-condicionado, etc) rsrsrsrsrs. Muito bom mesmo.O único ponto negativo do fone é o preço, e esse é um mega ponto negativo. O preço é muito alto, foi o que eu disse, é um artigo de luxo e, se você só quer ouvir uma música em paz com algum nível de silêncio, existem outros fones de ouvido que vão cumprir a tarefa por uma faixa de preço muito menor, de R$300-600, como por exemplo o fone da JBL ou os da Anker.Portanto, se tem interesse em cancelamento de ruído de ponta e, não vai comprometer a renda do seu ano (porque esse é o período que você vai passar pagando ele), vale muito a pena! É um fone durável e creio que ainda vai valer cada centavo.

I was looking for a great headphone for use in the office and while working. I extensively looked at the Momentum 4, the Sony WX ...5, the B&W PX7s2 etc. In the end purchased the Bose because of(1) the test results on call quality(2) alleged comfort while wearing(3) the size of the case (smallest of amongst competition)I am sure the alternatives are pretty good too. I can only state that I am supremely happy with these Bose headphones. Sound quality I find excellent. Some reviews criticize its Immersion settings for sound, but I find it spectacular. Battery duration is fine. Charging it perhaps once per week.Another great feature is that I can work on my laptop and phone simultaneously. The headset transitions very smoothly. Really handy.

Best headphones ever!! yes, pricey but totally worth it. I have it had for 7 months now, it has different modes and you can make up your own mode as well. I always use quiet mood, this is what I was looking for, great noise cancelling even when you are not playing anything. works great for studying if you have noise around, also great outside. The sound quality and calls are pretty awesome too. Also, it's super comfy, can wear all day no problem.

bose ses kalitesi ve rahatlık olarak gayet iyi ürünler yapıyor. bu ürünü diğerlerinden pahalı olmasına rağmen tercih edip denemek istedim. ve çok iyi bir premium ürün. kulak çevresinde uzun süre kullanımda ağrı yaşatmıyor. üstteki kordan da baskı yapmadığı için uzun süreli kullanımda ağrı yapmadı hiç. daha önce farklı firmalardan bu türdeki büyük kulaklıklarda bu sorunları yaşamıştım. ama bose'da yaşamaıdm. çok iyi çalışmışlar gerçekten bu ürün için teşekkürler.keşke bazı otomotiv şirketleri de doğru düzgün anlaşmalar yapsalar da ses sitemi olarak bose tercih etseler. bir çok kaliteli firma çalışıyor zaten bose ile aslında, ama mesela ford çalışmıyor bose ile henüz. bence çalışmalılar.
