Best Headphones I’ve Ever Owned
on October 23, 2023
Posted by: Trucker 76

Length of ownership:1 month
The Bose QuietComfort Headphones are the REAL DEAL. These things check all the boxes, from comfort to sound to ANC. The battery life has been exceptional, with play far outlasting any long sessions I’ve had with them on. The immersive audio is an intuitive, interesting feature (just make sure you check the app to ensure the IA is in the correct parameters for your current activity). The only shortcoming I’ve found with these stellar headphones is that I believe that the drivers could be a little larger to get a slightly deeper, bassist range down low. That is literally the only shortfall.
My wife also wanted me to add, for all you out there that face the same issue, that the ANC does WONDERS for canceling out my snoring.

Beyond our time!!! Sounds Voicebox

Like most people, certain events call for certain genres of music. I love R&B-Soul when I’m a date night but I’ll take the Classic Rock/Rap music when I’m tossing the weights around in the gym.
The clarity and feedback that I receive in sound from these headphones are astoundingly good. I literally feel like I’m in my own world once I put these on and go into immersion mode. The music is trapped within my ears and with still/motion mode, I can dictate whether the sound travel to the pace of my movements.
Going from Aware mode to Quiet mode is like turning any and all distractions off. Not a peep, even from the loud train that zooms by my apartment complex on the daily.
The sleekness, aluminum design, comfort, is all a bonus to the Ultra’s performance. I love the bold black and white creamed colors and I only expect Bose to release more colors in the near future. Aesthetics give it a nice blend of both the Quiet Comfort and Bose 700 headphones.
I am extremely impressed with the stability and comfort as I go through high intensity, functional based exercises. For any athlete looking to perform their absolute best without worrying of their headphones falling off or the ear cusps moving around, I guarantee that problem is officially solved. I can take a sledgehammer to a tire, jump on 50 in vertical boxes, do high intensity agility runs, all without disrupting any bit of sound.
Overall, if perfection had an image in the dictionary, i am almost sure these would be the main image!

Best headphones yet!

This is my first pair of new Bose headphones since I purchased my Bose noise cancelling headphones roughly 6 years ago. The difference in the audio experience and the noise cancelling features is hands down the best yet! The fit and feel of the headphones are very comfortable, lightweight, and fit the contour of my head very nicely. Aesthetically, the headphones look top-notch and very well put together. Battery life is more than I would ever need in any given go, but I have yet to run into any performance or charging issues. Pairing the headphones with the Bose app was seamless, and the product demonstration/tutorial was fantastic. I fly a lot for work and for anyone wanting to tune out the white noise of air travel and have a truly immersive audio experience, look no further than the Bose QuietComfort Ultra.

Bose never disappoints. Awesome new features!

I’ve been using the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra Headphones for two weeks now, and I’m impressed with the new features. The Bose Immersive Audio technology is impressive, and I love the motion feature that follows my head movements. The active noise cancellation is top-notch, and it works like magic during my train commute. The battery life is phenomenal, and I can wear the headphones all day without feeling any fatigue thanks to the superb cushion. The only downside is that it’s a little pricey, but I think it’s worth the money given the awesome ANC and great Immersive Technology.

The Upgrade You Deserve

As an engineer, I'm thoroughly impressed by the Bose Ultra Headphones. Their sleek, premium design and advanced technology make them a significant upgrade from previous Bose headphones. The headphones' aesthetic appeal is matched by their performance, justifying the price tag. Having owned both the QC 35 and 45 models, I can attest to the exponential growth in capabilities that the Ultras represent. The noise cancellation feature is a masterstroke, creating an immersive, soundproof experience that outshines any predecessor. This feature works exceptionally well in noisy offices and windy outdoor conditions, providing a focused work environment and maintaining superior performance. The sound quality is exceptional, with a perfect balance between heavy bass, midrange, and treble, delivering a rich, immersive soundstage that is a significant step up from earlier models. The Ultras truly showcase the evolution and innovation of Bose's headphone technology, making them a worthy investment.
The Bose Ultra Headphones, with their superior performance and comfort, have now become my go-to daily audio gear. Their exceptional sound quality and noise cancellation features make them a perfect companion for both my professional and personal life, offering an unmatched auditory experience. Be it attending a conference call, immersing myself in music, or catching up on my favorite podcasts, these headphones consistently deliver top-notch performance. One aspect I've particularly come to enjoy is the intense vibrations they are capable of, adding a whole new dimension to my listening experience. They have indeed revolutionized my daily interaction with sound.

Comfortable✔ Bass✔ Perfect Noise Cancelation✔

Um.. WOW!
I can't begin to explain how comfortable these are yet they're perfectly blocking out all the outside sound. Yet, they have an environment aware mode so you can hear those around you. Yet, there's a mode that combines both together so you can hear outside noises but only if it's extra loud and needs your attention. All while having amazing sound quality. Whilst being light and breathable.
Bose QuietComfort DOES IT AGAIN. Kudos Bose, I am impressed. Coming from someone who has used your 2 other main competition headphones as well.
The hard and protective, yet thin carrying case opens to reveal the neatly folded up and tiny looking headphones. The pouches on the front side of the case holding a 3.5mm to 2.5mm aux cable that can optionally plug into compatible devices, as well as a USB-C charging cable.
You unfold the headphones and pull them onto your head, the headband intelligently stretching out to make a perfect fit over-the-ears. Wait, what's that now? They automatically turned on because it's been less than 24 hours since you last wore them? no way. Wait, what.. they connected automatically too and now you can't the vacuum cleaner that was on just a second ago? (I literally just experienced this that's why I'm including it in the review LOL) - the sound is GONE. I hear it miles away. Wow.
Now my music begins, a simple tap of one of the buttons on the right ear cup begins where I left off. I could of course choose to whip out my phone and start a custom playlist on my favorite app. Even the Bose app itself will sync to what I'm listening to.
The Immersion modes really kick up the music up a notch. Now it doesn't feel like I'm wearing headphones and listening to music at my desk - no, now it feels like I'm IN the dance club scene during which this song was played at in the movie (If you get my meaning). They're just so immersive and not clamping a storm on my head compared to the other competition that this is Beating while I enjoy some music and throw away my half eaten Apple. Get it?

Great sound and comfort!

I have been using these headphones for the past two weeks, mostly for conference calls, and am very happy with the quality of sound and wear comfort:
- The battery life is also very good, only needs charging once a week or so for an average of 4 hours daily use. - Bluetooth connection is quick and intuitive.
- Immersive audio is a really nice feature to get lost in music.
I am also using Bose Quiet Comfort 45, and really enjoy the slide functionality for On/Off switch and size adjustment - to me, they are more practical and quick to use. Those are the only two things I would change in Ultra headphones to make them not just Excellent, but the Absolute Best!

Undeniably Bose sound & perfect fit

The sound quality is everything and more that you'd expect from Bose. Top notch. Noise cancelling is great as well. The headphones fit extremely well and are comfortable to wear for many hours at a time.
Setup within the Bose app was quick and painless and the EQ and noise cancellation customization options are a nice touch.
My only issues came up when having more than one device paired to a macbook / iphone. Generally I just had to disable bluetooth and re-enable to get things working again. A small annoyance but something I hope is fixed with a future firmware update.
