Love the headphones just a little upset that after I purchased them for five days later they went down $50. It would be amazing if I can get a reimbursement or a gift certificate from Bose. Other than that these headphones are amazing I switched over from beats, I love these headphones.
The process of turning on the headphone it’s over complicated ! The long press hold the on button and the different sounds and make it actually similar sometimes, Annette is not on! I’m not sure if it’s on or off despite that sound it plays when you press the small ON button ! Sometimes frustrating .
Great sound and comfort! The new features of how they turn off when removed and turn on when you put them in is super cool. They are definitely an upgrade from my last pair that are six years old.
Headphones are a bit pricey. They do have some awesome features and the look is great. The only thing I did not like was the volume is very low. I have the volume at max and still seems low. It could have use more volume !!!
Sound cancellation is very good and at least modestly better than the Bose over ear headsets I bought in 2015 and 2016 (I believe Bose Quiet Comfort 25), which are starting to wear out - so I am glad that I purchased the Ultra. But I find I need to recharge the devise every day, since otherwise the internal battery runs down. I try to turn it off, but the internal battery still runs down. The prior Bose product (Bose Quiet Comfort 25?) used one AAA battery, and thus I could solve the problem of the battery running down by carrying a spare AAA battery. I am concerned about whether, with the need to recharge literally every day, the battery life of the Ultra will steadily worsen. I would prefer a headphone set that used AAA batteries that can be replaced. Also the Quiet Comfort 25 was a bit snugger in its fit; when I do certain exercises, the Ultra comes off my ears.
