Stunning sound and noise cancellation. Must have!!

I absolutely love my QC Ultra earbuds! I'm an audiophile that listens to multiple musical genres, and with the QC Ultra earbuds my ears are always left in musical bliss! It's almost as if hearing your favorite music for the first time all over again. I'm still hearing notes and times I never heard in music before. Stunning sound is so life-like, with crystal clear, distortion free tones, lows, mids , and highs, at any volume level. Use the Immersive Audio feature to dive into the middle of the music, as well as put you into the middle of your favorite movie. The noise cancellation of the QC Ultras is unparalleled all while utilizing preset modes and fully customizable modes. The modes are adjustable from almost complete pass through to almost complete isolation as if you were sealed in an auditory chamber. The QC Ultras have great fitment in my ears right out of the case! Very comfortable as I really don't even feel them. Plus they come with 3 different size ear tips and ear bands so any size ears can be accommodated. Battery life is impeccable as I'm getting a full 10 hours of use at work, only storing them in the case while on my breaks, and battery life still hasn't dropped below 60%. Phone calls are crystal clear. Great list of features with all controls being accessible from either earbud. Touch controls are very sensitive, which can be a drawback at times. I did have loss of touch controls twice, at which point I just placed the QC Ultras back into the charging case, then back into my ears. Problem solved! I would like to see a more secure charging case, maybe with a locking lid. Overall the QC Ultra earbuds are by far the best version Bose has released! Absolutely a must have for audiophiles and movie lovers alike! Thank you Bose!!!

Incredible sound quality beyond compare!

I must admit, if you're going to invest in earbuds, the quality of the sound is EVERYTHING! Prior to my QC Ultra Earbuds, I was using a cheaper pair in which the sound was very muffled and for lack of better words, cheap. People I would speak to could never hear me because all they could hear was the wind and any background noise, which was so annoying. With these Ultra Earbuds, people's voices sound so crisp. I've asked people I've spoken to if they can hear me ok and each person's response was, "I can hear you perfectly clear', which was such an awesome relief especially since I use these earbuds for work! When listening to music, you feel like your listening to a band live at an arena and I'm a big concertgoer so this is huge! One thing I really love is the noise-cancelling capability. I'm a frequent flyer and somehow always end up sitting next to a crying baby on my flights. On a recent trip, there was a crying baby sitting in the row directly in front of me and the noise cancellation really drowned out the crying and screaming. I was so content and was able to relax in peace and quiet for the entire 3 hour trip! The only thing that I need to figure out is the right size of the earbud rubber casing. The right side is perfect but the left earbud tends to keep falling out of my ear so I will need to do some mix matching with the provided size options to find out which size suits my left ear best so that it stays put. Also, the case itself is great but I must admit, I liked the flatter horizontal case that came with my old Bose QC earbuds from a little while back only because I feel like it was easier to place them back in the case. Maybe it's just a matter of getting used to but I always seem to have trouble figuring out which way I need to insert them back in. However, these are small things that really don't measure up to the amazing quality of sound I'm experiencing and I'm sure I'll figure out how to correct these minor issues soon enough! Overall, amazing earbuds worth every penny!

Second to none Noise Canceling!!!

I got the New Bose Quiet Confort Ultra Earbuds and I'm so Amazed with it !!!
I jog every morning around where I live wearing my headphones, the neighborhood is still under construction, as soon as I switch to quiet mode it is incredible the level the isolation I get, everything turns like I'm in a middle of nowhere alone, with an absolutely silent which allow me to listen music without listening all the noise coming from the constructions trucks and machines around me...
I'm also a musician and I like to be able to listen a clear singers’ voice from the music, but additionally, I truly like to listen the musicians' instrumental performance from the band. In general, all the available audio modes on these earbuds allow me to listen those details, however, Immersive Audio get me a step beyond that, to the point to make me feel I'm in one of the best concert halls in the world, providing every single sound detail of the instruments played in the song and making me enjoy to fullest the songs I'm listening.
Bose QC Ultra delivers immaculate balanced voicing and instrumental sounds..
These Earbuds are Absolutely Unbelievable, I Love them!!!

Immersive Feature!!

I absolutely love these! The best thing about them is that they are comfortable to wear and the new immersive feature truly helps you to get into the music. I was hearing music in a whole new way. I mean there were instruments coming through that I had not heard before! I use these when I take walks and when I am at my office desk. I use them in two different capacities and they fill both seamlessly. If I didn't have these, my office job would be mundane. I can not rock out at my desk and its a party for one! The only con that I could identify was they are so sensitive. I would bump my ear when moving my hair and it was the lightest touch and the music would pause. This did not take me out of the experience though! Get these earbuds!!

Bose QC Ultra: Your Sound Oasis

Alrighty, folks, today we're diving deep into the world of the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra earbuds. Buckle up because I'm about to take you on a journey through all the nitty-gritty details that make these earbuds stand out from the crowd.
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC): First things first, let's talk about the superstar feature - Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). I put these earbuds through some serious noise tests, including jet engine-level roars. The result? These bad boys blocked out an astonishing 65.2 decibels of outside noise. We're talking real-world scenarios, like flights and noisy spots, and these earbuds handled it with ease. If you've got a thing for peace and quiet, these are your jam.
Wind Noise: Windy days? No problemo. These earbuds are like the Jedi knights of wind noise. They're designed to minimize wind interference, so even if it feels like you're in a wind tunnel, your audio stays crystal clear.
Comfort: Comfort is key, right? Well, Bose gets it. They throw in three different ear tips and three wing tips, so you can make these earbuds your best friends, no matter your ear shape.
Sound Quality: Alright, let's talk tunes. Bose cranks up the audio game with Snapdragon Sound certification and Qualcomm aptX Adaptive tech. The sound? Warm and inviting, with awesome soundstage with Immersion mode.
Battery Life: Was able to make it through my workday at the office with ease, lasting more than the advertised 6hrs.
Phone Calls: These earbuds are phone call champs. With their nifty microphones and have become my go to for all my calls wherever I go.
Customization and Design: You can set up your own modes for running, working out, or just chilling. Plus, the touch controls are a breeze, like swiping up and down for volume with ease.
Durability and Connectivity: These earbuds are tough cookies with an IPX4 rating, so they're all about that sweat-resistant life. Not a worry with my daily workout sessions. They're rocking Bluetooth 5.3 for better connections. They work independently too!

Pros: We're talking about exceptional clarity, an immersion mode that's on point, music that feels like it's reaching new heights, microphones that make you sound crystal clear, bass that's fuller than your Thanksgiving plate, and pairing so quick it'll make your head spin.
Cons: But hey, let's be real. No gadget is perfect. In immersion mode, voices can get a bit muffled, the microphone might pick up some background noise, and switching modes can be a tad slow.
In a nutshell, Bose has cooked up something special with the Quiet Comfort Ultra. They're the kings of ANC, and they'll make your music sound sweeter than ever.

Amazing immersive audio

These earphones are a prime example of continuous innovation on every product release Bose has. It's amazing how something so small provides such incredible cutting-edge spatial audio sound, making everything feel alive with more realism and detail on every audio source.
The new immersive audio is a game changer when watching movies on a plane; it truly feels theatrical, and I forget I'm in the plane as it cancels the jet and unwanted noise inside the cabin.
The noise canceling is great when I need to concentrate in the office and is perfect for running in the evenings. They keep the unwanted noise out, and I can focus on my tasks.

Well crafted, superior sound doesn’t disappoint

I was reluctant to consider using earbuds as I’ve always used over the ear headphones. Needless to say based on my previous experiences with Bose, I decided to give these earbuds a shot. Upon opening the box and seeing the matte black earbud case and holding them in my hand for the first time I was immediately impressed . Quality materials with a sleek design , I was eager to get them in my ear and start listening. Setting them up via the app was seamless and the additional features within the app are something that other products I’ve used don’t have which is great! Pairing complete , WOW, battery notification and a pleasant welcome tone. As I start playing my current playlist Im surprised, the sound quality is better than I’d expected. Bose is synonymous with superior sound quality but these earbuds are beyond that! It’s like hearing my favorite song for the first time. I quickly found myself playing all of my favorite songs and with each song I was blown away by richness and quality of these earbuds . I can’t believe I didn’t try these sooner! Bose never disappoints, go grab you a pair and experience your favorite music like never before!

Can’t workout without them

Bose has really outdone themselves. Wasn’t sure what to expect but these headphones are amazing. Let me start by saying these headphones stay in your ears at the gym. Whether I’m running or lifting these bad boys don’t budge. I own another pair of headphones that constantly fall out and I don’t have that problem at all when I put these on. The headphones tell you the battery percentage of each earbud when you put them in so you don’t need to check the app. Bose app is easy to use and love the fact that I can sync these with my Bose soundbar for nights the wife wants to sleep and I want to actually hear the tv. Once the headphones are in all the outside noise immediately fades to a nothing. The noise cancelling is prob the best I’ve experienced. There’s a feature called immersion mode and the sound is absolutely beautiful and crisp. I use immersion mode during my workouts and it takes them to a new level. I like that I can play around with the bass levels through the bose app. The headphones themselves feel and look top notch and the battery has lasted me several workouts on a single charge. Highly recommend
