The Best Ever

These are the best earbuds I've ever owned. I've used wired earbuds, and Bose Sport Earbuds, and the Quiet Comfort Ultra Earbuds put all of them to shame. The noise cancelling is so good that I actually need to switch to "aware" mode while riding my bicycle near traffic. The microphone is incredible as well. Even in a stiff breeze, my phones voice to text picks up the words. The sound quality is everything you would expect from a Bose product and then some. It is amazing to me that Bose is able to create such amazing sound in such a tiny package. The only downside is the charging case. It's really difficult to get the earbuds out of the case.

Fitness, work, silence, immersive music, meetings

I have been wearing the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds throughout the day for nearly all of my audio needs. During cardio and strength workouts, the earbuds stay put and never feel like they might fall out. They block out noise when I am concentrating for work, writing, reading, and meditation, and they eliminate audio distractions when meeting online.
They allow me to move around the house while listening to music, podcasts, and audio books, and I like that when I remove a single earbud to hear something in my environment, the other earbud automatically shifts to Aware mode, allowing both ears to hear better. Putting the earbud back in restores the noise cancellation with no added effort.
Finally, the Immersive Audio feature adds a richness and depth to music, especially with tracks that place instruments in different stereo locations.

Get these for Added Performance and Focus!

The Pros:
I train with weights and run along with everyday house chores. I share that because when working out, running, or just mowing the lawn, you can FEEL the music. I ran in Aware Mode and could hear cyclist coming up. I mowed the lawn in Immersive Mode and the music was just so enveloping with the feeing of getting lost in the moment. It made mowing the lawn feel like I’m just dancing and the mower is my partner! Also working out in the gym is my favorite because with the equalizer in App along with Immersive Audio then you have this feeling of being in focused zone. It’s an Added Bonus to feel the music. The noise cancelling is amazing but the overall best part is the comfort coupled with the sound. You can wear these for a long run and not feel like your inner ears hurt. Each of the pieces for ear fit have combinations that you can find your fit. It’s more than select 1 of 3 sizes. Get these to loose yourself in the music because of sound and comfort! You can truly FEEL it!

The Cons:
The case itself is not wireless charging. There is an option to buy an additional protective case that will provide wireless charging. In my opinion, it should just come with the purchase.

The Future of In Ear Earbuds is Now!!!

I am absolutely thrilled with Bose's new offering of in ear earbuds. I've been wearing them everyday for two straight weeks. When I want to tune out the world and become one with my music... these are my go to earbuds. The noise cancelling is phenomenal and I love the way you can switch the control offerings to either ear. I've had no complaints when talking during phone calls and I'm able to hear my counterparts clearly. I work in the communications field and it can get quite loud at times. These earbuds help me block out the distractions and help me focus on the task at hand. These QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds match my drip (i.e. style) and are absolutely awesome!!!

The earbuds come with three size pieces to keep them in your ears, amazing sound and noise cancellation! I have always been an Apple product girl, these earbuds blow my airpods out of the water! The quality of a Bose product is unmatched! I love the option to have quiet, aware, immersion. The App is easy and cool to use! You cannot top these earbuds they are the best on the market!

Great Upgrade

I have the original 1st gen Bose QuietComfort Earbuds and was very happy with them. Overall great sound coupled with high quality noise cancelling. I honestly didn't think much could be improved. That said, the Ultras are definitely a nice upgrade. There appears to be even a higher level of quality with the noise cancelling coupled with an added feature of sound "immersion". I experimented with these settings on a recent trip and was not let down. I was on a short flight with a small infant in the seat behind me, The baby was a little fussy as they often are during air travel. I slipped in my Ultras and choose the "Immersion" setting and all the noise faded away and my music flowed ever so nicely with no interruptions from outside sounds. It also seems that there is an upgrade to the Bluetooth connectivity. I have always noticed a slight glitch in this area where there is, for lack of better words, hiccups when connected to my phone and often times they wouldn't pair. I have had the Ultras for over a week now and have not had one Bluetooth issue. Overall, I am very happy with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds.

Can't Live Without Them
on September 23, 2023
Posted by: Deon
Bose customer since 2004. I love the light weight and sleek design of these ear buds. They don't slide or fall out of my ears. Comfortable enough to wear all day and I even slept half the night in them. The listening options are second to none! I listen to Country and Rap most of the time but I enjoy listening to Gospel in Immersive Mode the most. The newly designed Charging/Carrying Case fits better in my front pocket and doesn't come out like the first edition. I absolutely love these ear buds...I just wish they came in bright colors.

Excellent sound, great for Zoom calls!

Noise cancellation: I was skeptical that these noise cancelling earbuds would be effective being that they are so small and dont cover the ear. I was pleasantly surprised when i found out that these rival in performance my over ear noise cancelling headphones. You do have to ensure you have the right size earplug attachement to get a good seal to the ear. The QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds come with three different sized eartips and bands. Make sure you try them all to find the best fit. The Music App comes with a feature that lets you test how good is the Earbud Seal to your ear.
Comfort: I had to switch to large eartips to get a good seal. I also have been wearing them for long Zoom conferences and phone calls and are very comfortable. They don't hurt after a while of wearing.
Volume: I found that volume for streaming music is quite good and available at loud levels. However, when making calls, I tend to have to raise the volume to hear better.

Phone calls and Zoom calls: some coworkers told me I sound clearer than on my previous Microsoft PC Mic.
Immersive (3D features): these are amazing and work when listening to music of movies. It's a really nice to hear the effects of music run through this mode. It somehow makes sounds come through virtually every direction, including above. Quit nice a feature and these amazingly small earbuds do a very good job.
Battery: I always put my EarBuds back in the case which recharges them. So I have not run the battery down yet.
Overall, I recommend the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds. You will be pleased with the Hi Fidelity sound and amazing noise cancellation features all in an very small package. I'm white collar worker so I use this on Zoom calls and personal calls and for listening to music.
