These have the best sound of any headphone I've ever had. Way better than my QC earbuds!! The noise cancellation is second to none. Pricy but highly recommend.

New purchase and quite pleased!

I just recently purchased the Quiet Comfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen), and I must say I'm very pleased with the quality of sound, and the noise cancelling is so good, that I can hardly believe when I take them off how much sound doesn't penetrate while listenting to anything. Yes they are costly, but not quite as expensive as the higher end models by audio specialists out there in the professional fields of listening hardware. I have yet to actually try all the features, but I am looking forward to the discoveries of what else these headphones possess as listening choices.

Perfection awaits
on November 6, 2025

While there was a day delay in shipping when I got them I couldn't be happier. Obviously they set the standard for noise canceling but as a owner of Gen 1, and even beats flagship headphones these are the definition of head of the class. I always have cinema mode on because I can't get enough of it. And what other reviews fail to mention is they have a more powerful sound then last Gen. And I can go to sleep with them on in peace with comfort and they are light enough to not give me neck issues. And if you wear glasses fear not. They are perfect for everyone. Definition of perfect headphones 🎧

Great improvement over the first generation

much more stable than other Bluetooth headphones that I've had.
I would like to see more physical buttons there's overlaps and functionality, which makes it a bit confusing to learn

I absolutely love these headphones, wear them while I deer hunt. Gave my wife my AirPods, definitely worth the purchase.

Touch Controls?

The touch controls do not work on my unit. Otherwise, they're perfect. Noise canceling is second to none. I could also use a bit more base myself but the clarity is exquisite. I'll be returning for a new unit where the touch controls actually work, especially for the price!

Great sound quality! Noise cancelling is OK.

I would say that the headphones have great sound quality! Some NPR podcasts I've listened to almost felt like they were talking into my ear! The Immersion Mode is neat, too! It's almost like you could actually feel the sound coming into your ears. Listening to ASMR videos makes for a very tingly experience! Also sometimes I'd forget I was even in the same room the sound was so good. I would say that going outside for walks while on Immersion Mode, however, is a little discombobulating, at least for me. Some podcasts sounded a bit off on Immersion Mode. I think maybe movies and sports I had a better experience while on Immersion. I thought that the nose cancellation was good, and I think could be better tuning out people/kids shouting (e.g. at a park). I could still hear people while on Quiet Mode. Not that you'd want to completely be unaware of your surroundings, I think the noise filtering could be better in that regard while trying to study, or just need a mental break. I also thought that the switching between devices on Bluetooth was OK, however sometimes while watching shows on my Google TV, the sound would cut out if I got a notification or any sound played on my phone. Then I'd have to exit out of the app to get the sound back. Then I'd have to disconnect my phone from my headphones because that gets annoying fast! I would say all in all they've got some great sound, are comfortable to wear, and they've got some decent noise cancellation, albeit could be a bit better tuning out some noises.
