These are my second pair of over the ear headphones, I previously owned the Sennheisers HD 250 back in 2006? (Can't remember correctly.) These were extremely comfortable, durable over the ear headphones. They were bulky but they were great and lasted me 6+ years.
First off, the Bose QC 25 are light, extremely comfortable and they seem pretty durable. Upon opening the box everything is well packaged and neat. All the instructions were present and simple to follow and comprehend.
The cups are soft and cushioned in a way that it feels like its floating on your ear. I've been using it at the gym for a over 2 weeks now and it's been great.
The noise cancellation blocks about 90% of ambient noise, especially in a loud gym it works wonders, so I'm sure if you're using this in your everyday routine it'll block out near 100%. The headphones come with one battery so that was a pro also. The detachable cord is the is plus too.
Some things I found I didn't likew were the max volume isn't the loudest to me, I guess I'm partially deaf but I like my music, etc... really loud. I also recommend you "burn in" your headphones. Play it about 100 hours and you'll definitely notice the sound quality is superior to any other products.
The price is steep. These are great headphones don't get me wrong, but the release price of the Bose QC 25's were $300.
Some final thoughts:
Great pair of headphones if this is well within your budget. I highly recommend these!
