The connection of the app is unstable, and the 3.5mm headphone jack still requires the device to be powered on. It's unable to completely shut off all noise-canceling or ambient modes, meaning even in relatively quiet environments, you can't achieve the cleanest sound. However, comfort is the sole reason I choose it; it provides good comfort for working or commuting.
Bought these mostly for my PC to deal with noisy neighbors, and they work incredible. The noise cancelling is awesome, and is very comfortable to wear. I sometime wear them up to 12+ hours a day, and I sometimes forget I'm wearing them (like a cloud sitting on top of your head). And of course the sound quality is amazing. Oh phone calls the mic also doesn't pick up any background noise as well (wind, ambient noise etc).
My first pair of Bose headphones and want to reflect on how comfortable they are. I recently used it on 4r flight and the noise cancellation feature is impressive. The sound is exquisite as Bose product promise to be.
I work from home, as does my partner, and we are both on calls for most of the day. I had been using AirPods, but they were causing sores in my ears. No more sores or painful ears!!
These headphones are soft! I wear glasses and they don’t cause the glasses to push into my head!
And these are the only over the ear headphones I’ve found that allow me to hear myself in aware mode-no more sounding like I am in a fishbowl.
So pleased with my purchase. Thank you for making quality headphones.
Overany years this is my third pair of QCs. My first pair lived a very long life with minimal care. After the QC35, I purchased the QC700. Here Bose introduced us with control over the noise cancelling from a 0-10 scale. This was huge for someone like me who likes to crank some tunes while I get some work done at home or the office. They allowed minimalization of ambience, but allowed you to hear someone call out for you at a reasonable volume. However, I was not too happy with the quality of the 700s. After a shorter life than their predecessor, I picked up the QC Ultra last weekend. By far the nicest pair yet. I'm very happy with moving back to the collapsible model with the tougher case. These headphones are remarkably intelligent in the most passive ways. I love being able to just show them away and they go to sleep. Immersion has been a nice step up in interesting quality adjustments. They don't quite get as much respect as a well tuned Dolby ATMOS system. But for headphones, they actually make you forget your wearing them. In addition to the immersive spatial feature, they're incredibly light. Wearable for hours without becoming annoying. Excellent job on the Ultra! Side note - also cool how they can group with my Smart Ultra soundbar. Nice for late night TV. Great product!
