I bought this last month for my husband. His BOSE headphones that he has had for a number of were falling apart from use so an upgrade was needed. He loves these new ones! He loves them being wireless (last set wasn’t) and these are noise canceling so they’re doubly nice. I can see him wearing these ones out, too. We love our BOSE!
This is my second pair of both headphones. I bought my first pair over 14 years ago. Interestingly, they still had good sound but the muffs were going beyond repair so I decided to try the new QC headphones. The new headphones are another world of sound! They come with so many features but the best I'm finding is the noise cancelation feature. That is not to say the sound is not awesome.
Replacing model 35's first bought before covid. Very pleased by sound and durability. Used daily for teams based online work in noisey office environment. Clean block of background noise. More durable than the Sony's that broke in 2 months. My beard is Italian, so I replaced ear pads 3 times in 6 years. So when I finally stepped on my 6 year old 35s, I replaced with latest. Great on a plane, office or quiet night. We'll worth the price a 2nd time.
This is my third pair of QuietComfort headphones. I didn't need a new pair, but they came in Lilac so I had to get them to match my luggage. These are actually better than the pair that I purchased two years ago. I was blown away at the clarity. All my audio equipment is Bose, so I am not unfamiliar with the sound quality, but these are so comfortable and amazing, that my next trip to Europe is going to be a quiet dream.
