I've been using these earbuds for a few weeks now, and I am loving them so far. The fit is great, they don't feel heavy, and they stay snug and secure during long, fast walks. I primarily use them for walking our dog (usually for about an hour), for listening to audiobooks at night, and to listen to music while shutting out the household noise when I'm writing. They are fantastic for all these scenarios. They have been extremely comfortable during long writing sessions. When walking my dog, I use the Outdoor mode, and I can always hear when there's a car coming up behind me. Battery life has been impressive. I've never needed to stop and charge them in my daily use.
I received the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds as part of a Sneak Preview. I have several Bose products including the previous generation of their earbuds. I use these earbuds for work and entertainment. The Ultras are even better than the previous version with the Immersive Audio. The two Immersive Audio Settings - Still and Motion are really cool to use and really expand the audio experience. The sound quality is great and the earbuds easily connect to a variety of devices. We even tried the earbuds out with our Bose Smart Soundbar to see how they would work for watching TV late at night. With the Immersive Audio Still setting, the sound from the Ultras really pops and make watching TV really fun. The Ultras work great for MS Teams or Zoom meetings and the microphone works perfectly with these sorts of meetings. These ear buds fit great, are very comfortable to wear for extended periods of time and are simple to use and control. The earbuds work great while being active. I wear them hitting golf balls at the driving range to generate some quiet space for my practice. Last but not least the Quiet mode is spot on and really can remove noises and other sounds from disturbing the user. Very impressed with these Ultra earbuds and am so happy to have them.
I have been using my Bose earbuds almost daily for several weeks and I still cannot get over how nice they are and how practical they have been. Firstly, I work in a lab, and I have genuinely stopped noticing over the years that my workplace is SO loud. There are dozens of fans and motors within earshot anywhere I might be working. These earbuds brought such unexpected, blissful, near total quiet. It genuinely feels like a luxury to be able to focus so well. I enjoy the silence so much, I often don’t even play anything, but when I do, the sound is very clean and immersive. I don’t have to keep turning it up because they tune out the noise I am surrounded with, unless I put them in the “Aware” mode - not my favorite, but it’s good to have the option.
I also like going to the gym and I like that QC Ultra feel very secure in my ears when I move. My husband instantly fell in love with my pair, so I guess that means I know what I am getting him for Christmas this year.
I needed a set of earbuds that would be comfortable and most importantly have top-notch noise cancellation -- these earbuds do all that and so much more! I'm a remote employee so I spend a lot of time taking meetings from airport lounges (or even around my noisy family) and I was amazed at the clarity of the calls, and how well background noise was eliminated so I could focus. These earbuds have the excellent sound quality I'd expect from Bose, are also great for music, audio books, and podcasts, and are comfortable whether I'm sitting at home or even out on a run. The immersive audio feature makes me feel like I am truly surrounded by the music I'm listening to, and I like that the Bose app makes it easy to adjust sound settings for whatever I need that day.
These are incredible. I’ve tried multiple different high end wireless earbuds through the years and these are light years ahead of everything else I’ve tried. The noise canceling capability shocked me. The first time I used them I was cutting my grass on a large commercial mower. They allowed me to keep the volume at a level that was not damaging to my ears because they cancelled out the noise of the mower. They fit great and of course you get that unmatched Bose sound. Get a pair. You will not regret the purchase.
First of all, I have the older model of earbuds and those had fantastic sound. I was honored to be chosen to receive and review the Ulta Buds. There are no words to describe the richness of the sound of these earbuds. The immersice audio feature is EPIC!. Having the music move with your head provides a level of audio enjoyment that's beyond compare. My only little gripe is I was sent the white color and I prefer black but beggars can't be choosers. If you're on the fence about these earbuds don't be. Try them. You'll love them.
The Bose Ultra Comfort headphones offer an exceptional audio experience that's a game-changer for both stationary and on-the-go music lovers. These headphones have truly redefined how I enjoy my music, whether I'm sitting down or moving around.
The standout feature here is undoubtedly the immersive audio options. The sound quality is outstanding, with crystal-clear highs and deep, resonating lows. The noise cancellation is nothing short of magic; I am transported into a music realm that's pure bliss, especially for a mom like me who values those moments of musical escapism during my 'me time.'
However, it's important to mention one drawback that I personally encountered—the motion sickness during the initial period of use. It was a bit disorienting, especially when I was moving around. Fortunately, this sensation gradually subsided as I became more accustomed to the headphones. It's a small hiccup compared to the overall audio experience they provide.
In conclusion, the Bose Ultra Comfort headphones are a revelation for any music lover. There is no going back to any other headphones!
I got a chance to do a beta test, so far they have been the best headphones, little sensitive to the touch and I had trouble working the volume, probably because of my fat fingers lol. After putting in the right size ear buds for them, it fit perfectly and as far ear fatigue, it took hours before I really felt them in my ear
