[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!

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.) I bought the QC45 in the Moon Stone colour to see how it looks in person. I like it, but I don't know if it will look good in the long term (that's just based on my lifestyle and all that). It looks simple but well built, with straightforward app use. I wish it had the Music Share option (like the QC35s). I use it with my wife whenever we travel together. The sound quality is good IMHO. I have no audiophile expertise, so it's definitely going to vary from person to person. The comfort is still pretty good. I don't feel any fatigue, even after wearing my pair for hours. The on/off switch does feel more satisfying to use on this pair (the QC35 ones with the dot looks better). The USB-C charging is welcomed. I wish I could use my USB-C to Lightning cable I have, so as to listen to music with NC on. That would be dope! The control buttons look ok; the QC35 control buttons look more premium (with the three dots). The stamping of the Bose logo, instead of how it was on the QC35, is debatable, I wish they kept the Bose logo from the QC35, but they changed it. I wish they had kept the alcantara headband, but they've changed it. I think bald people would have appreciated it if you had kept the alcantara headband . As for phone calls on this, let's just say the caller can hear EVERYTHING happening in your environment pretty loudly, including wind noise, if you are outside. It is not for random/telemarketing offices phone calls at all. Your caller can hear people talking in your vicinity, you taking notes on paper, etc. That's not good for business. You need a quiet room for your caller to benefit from your environment (basically, no NC for them) Bose, if you ever read this, might I suggest you make the Midnight Blue QC45 have the design cues of the predecessor (dots on buttons, alcantara headband, Music Share in the app) improve the additions (USB-C's functionality for audio), as well as keep the newbies (USB C, clean looks, etc). Thank you for the updates and it is appreciated.

I am a legal transcriptionist and have always used earbuds. I saw a review of the QuietComfort 45 headphones and decided to give them a try, even though I had doubts that I would hear as well through them. Boy, was I wrong! They are totally noise cancelling and I can hear the spoken word very clearly. As far as comfort, I wear them for 10+ hours every day with no problem. The name says it all - quiet and comfortable. The quality of the product and of the sound they deliver are excellent.

Great headphones for watching TV and not bothering anyone else with louder volume.

Excellent noice-cancelling headset.

Comfortable and great sound

I used these noise canceling earphones on my last flight to Miami. They are a game changer when it comes to having a comfortable flight.

Excellent, I love it, well under value, couldn't let it slip this time; thanks Bose, go such a high quality product. 👍

These are wonderful. They are comfortable and cancel noise, especially great on airplanes blocking all engine noise.
