[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this at the last minute as a Christmas gift for my husband. It actually shipped to me within a week. He absolutely loved it. The sound quality is great, but the best feature he went on and on about was the noise cancelling feature. Great Buy!

I like these a lot, the noise cancelling is really good especially on airplanes. Not very heavy bass though. They also do tend to slip off my head and are not as secure as I would like. they are comfortable for sleep, but if you directly lay on your side then it might not be. I do like that they are water resistant so they would be good for the gym or if it starts sprinkling outside. they are very light wait and don't like stupid when I wear them too so that's cool. After having them for a year they still work good, but i find that if they are connected to other devices at the same time you are listening then they the audio tends to trip up. overall good!

I like the Headphones for the noise canceling factor that way I don't have to hear my husband's TV. But both ear cushions ear pieces ripped apart. I literally have them safety pinned together. Which is uncomfortable. I contacted Bose and they said that they have replacement cushions for $34.00 and I have to pay for them 😒. For the costs of the Headphones $300.00 they shouldn't of came apart like that I don't think.

I bought these after traveling with friends who had them. We were all in a row in front of a baby with a piercing screech. My friends showed me how these can help you keep your sanity, and your hearing! I also use them around the house, and even at night. They're great!

I've owned the Q25, Q35, and now the Q45. I love them all. The Q25 were wired but made life as easily distracted and overwhelmed introvert with ADHD fantastic. When the wireless Q35 came out a year or so later I couldn't justify spending the money when the ones I had were fine. Let's just say I was more than a little excited when I got those 35's as a gift. I loved them and carried them everywhere. Eventually I had to replace the ear pads because they were so well loved, but that was a cheap and easy fix that made them feel brand new. I wasn't planning to get the Q45 - again simply because my 35s were/are so great. Then, a sad and terrible thing happened… I thought I lost them. Not just my headphones but my entire bag including laptop, headphones, etc. I made it a few days before realizing that I could not live or function without these darn magical headphones, so I ordered the 45's. My bag with all missing items turned up a week later but now having 2 pairs - no regrets! I love the status update you get when turning them on. I love the easy to use functions. And my gosh I love the active noise cancelling. I do notice a difference between the 35 and 45, there is definitely an improv with the newer ones. I frequently turn these on and wear them around the office or my house without even listening to anything, but just to eliminate the constant background and white noise, conversations I can't help but overhear and can't stay out of. I also wear them at night with sleep sounds or music to drown out my partners loud snoring. It goes without saying that the audio quality is superb. My first day with these new babies, I jumped and turned around because the song I was listening to had a whisper in it, and I thought that someone was behind me. Coworkers have yelled my name across the office and I have been peacefully oblivious to it. Im not a fan of being yelled at to be beckoned so it's helped create some boundaries for others.

Bought this for my daughter at college. She wanted something that she could get great sound without bothering others around her. The noise canceling keeps outside sound out and inside sound in. I begged her to let me try and easily hooked the Bluetooth to my phone. I listened to an old Grateful Dead concert and it was like I was sitting in the front row. Quality was awesome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pro's = Excellent noise canceling and comfort and the 5.1 Bluetooth is awesome. My other set of NC headphones is the QC35 I've used 6hrs daily since 2016 and they still work great however the 4.1 Bluetooth didn't reach 20ft. but now with the QC45 I can leave my phone/tablet and walk-around my entire home end to end, this is a huge upgrade just the Bluetooth upgrade. The comfort is unbelievable you can wear all day and not get hot or sore ears, big thing is while wearing the headphones and ear pads make know squeaking or squishing sounds. I've tried other headphones like the Sony XM4 and touch sensitive controls seem like it will be a good idea but in actual use it is NOT, thankfully Bose continue to use the physical buttons with the QC models they are well placed, small and intuitive. Cons - A couple things a wish Bose would improve in the QC45 is better sound and don't give me "battery low" warning with 10 percent battery remaining, with 10% battery the QC45 still has around 2hrs left however the battery low warning every 2 minutes this is frustrating. This results instead of the 24hrs listening time I have to charge at 22hrs (10%) you can't endure the low battery warning every 2minutes while listening. Please release a update to change this and if possible whe need a little less treble and more bass, maybe a firmware update or update the app with an equalizer. Over still the best NC headphones you can buy and hope a couple issues can get worked out via software and firmware updates.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only owned these since Christmas and they are already the best headphones I've ever owned. Quiet mode does a very good job of blocking out outside noise, but what really impresses me is aware mode. It sometimes feels like the headphones aren't even there. And the battery life is awesome. It drains so slowly.

As soon as these were announced, I knew I had to have them. I've been using Bose QuietComfort headphones since the QC15, and they've always been the best. These are no exception. Ultra comfortable with a fantastic sound signature, especially with the ability to use the EQ to suit the kind of music you're listening to at the time. The comfort is second to none, and I can wear them for hours at a time and almost forget they are there, and the smoke white color is a nice contrast to all the black electronics I use on a daily basis. These have the best ANC yet for flying, working in a server room, or just dealing with loud HVAC in the office. To say I'm in love with these, would be an understatement. Couple all of those features with the ability to pair them with my Bose sound bar if I want to watch TV without disturbing anyone else, and these are absolute winners.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The ANC is tremendous on these especially when you're on a plane. I like that you can touch the button and activate both tiers of it it. Aware and Quiet mode. Very comfy on the ears also. Sound is amazing with music.!
