I received these earbuds about a month ago and after charging them once was able to easily pair with my phone. Initially, there was some hissing while the music was playing which was resolved by swapping to the smaller earbud tips. The noise canceling in these buds is impeccable. I used them on a flight and they cancelled the external noise better than the over the ear Bose headphones. I actually used both during the fight to compare. The battery life is very long as I have only charged the case once and have used them during my walk breaks, workouts and flights. Paying with the Peloton bike was very easy as well and the sound is so crisp and clear and the same goes for phone calls. The sound is just amazing. The buds are very sensitive, however and one slight touch will pause the music which can be a little annoying if you have to adjust them in your ear. The volume controls are easy to use and I love the fact that I can change the sound of the music to add more bass, etc. The case small enough to fit into my belt bag but doesn’t have a strap or any type of attachment that would make it easier to attach to anything to carry them. Perhaps Bose will develop a carrying case for them. Overall, I am pretty pleased with these earbuds.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Quiet Comforts replaced another brand of earbuds that kept falling out of my ears. The QC's with the little wings stay in place. So, the QC's fit better, feel better and sound better. My only gripes are not with the earbuds, but with the phone app. The app tells you the charge level of the earbuds, but not the charging/carry case. It would also be nice to be able to make more than one custom EQ setting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These devices are excellent in terms of sound and ANC as well as being a comfortable fit. However, the sensors that recognize when the buds are in your ear are at best faulty. A lot of time you are putting the sensor on and one of the ears does not recognize the bud so the sound is only coming from one ear. Imagine if you are on the go, and you are not able to put these buds back into the charging case for a reset, it completely breaks the use case of these earbuds.

I went from the Sony wf1000xm4 series earbuds to these Bose QuiteComfort. These Bose are a good bit better than the xm4 series. Note that I did really like the Sony earbuds, and I suspect the new xm5 series where they resolved some customer complaints will still make them a great pair of buds. I just wanted a change to see the difference in the brands. The good - noise cancelling is fantastic! I just flew from Atlanta to Vegas roundtrip and with music playing I could not even hear the loud plane noises. Mowing the grass, also great, I can still hear the mower just a bit but I don't have to blast the music to drown it out like I did with the Sony. The medium size ear pieces fit perfectly for me, again also a better snug fit and more comfortable than the Sony. Sound quality is what you would expect from Bose, amazing. The app that is used with this model is really good, I like the ability to set the equalizer for the sound. The bad, but not really that bad - like most have mentioned, the carrying case is a bit large and bulky but does not bother me. I don't care they stick out of my ear, also something that does not bother me. So far, that's about it, I do really like them!. Last thought, for the price compared to the quite comfort ultra, you can't go wrong. I imagine the ultra are a bit better but I doubt I would be able to tell the difference. In addition, sorry Sony, but these are cheaper than the newer xm5 model. Overall, excellent earbuds!

The product is just stellar, with it being basically half the cost of airpods pros, these earbuds can be tuned to perfection to meet your audio needs, personally I use these more than my airpods now and ive not gone back. Best pick up for kids going into college who need a budget option for audio quality and ANC

I bought these a week ago and I live them. Sound is amazing, they are comfortable, look great. I used to have bose, but they got destroyed by my kitten. I tried over 10 other earbuds, including beats, jbl, samsung, Sony. All got returned either due to the sound, lack of noise cancelation or mega discomfort when wearing them. Bose is winning by all means.

I enjoy using these earbuds. They have a good noise canceling feature that is better than other earbuds I have tried--and the amount of noise cancellation is adjustable, which is nice. I normally don't like earbuds like these because they don't fit my ear well and tend to fall out easily, but I wore these for several hours walking through airports and on planes while traveling recently and they stayed in my ear well. By the end of the day, my ears were a bit sore, but I don't typically wear earbuds for that long normally. The only reason I gave 4/5 stars is that the touch feature is VERY sensitive. My first few days of wearing them, I would brush them accidentally when fixing my hair or adjusting an earring and it would pause my music. I've since gotten used to the sensitivity, but it does take some time. I would recommend these headphones for someone that wants amazing noise cancellation earbuds instead of over-ear headphones.

When I returned full time back to the office for work I found it difficult to hold conference calls in my cubicle with all the back ground noise. My Bose quiet comfort headphones are noise canceling, but I needed a boost so in May 2024 I purchased the Bose quit comfort ulta earbuds. I love them they cancel out all background noise and fit good. I only found one problem… battery life. I found myself relying so much on them at work I needed another pair. When I saw the new design and affordable price point I was sold. Had to have them and I’m glad I did!!! I absolutely love the new Bose quit comfort earbuds. They are not my back up pair they are actually my main pair and the comfort ulta earbuds are my back up pair. I can’t get over how comfortable the new quit comfort earbuds are. I wear them the full charge of 8.5 hours a day. The fit makes the sound quality and noise canceling amazing. The case is well done with 2.5 in extra charges. From voice control or tap control these buds are so user friendly. If one happens to fall out the sound immediately stops alerting you.Don’t get me wrong that’s earbuds are great for the office, but they are definitely not all about business!! Music sounds the most amazing coming through these earbuds. The bass and sound quality can’t be beat. The case is wire or wireless charging capacities. I really have nothing negative to say at this price point and Bose is a name you can trust.

I bought these recently because I needed a way to listen to music and podcasts without disturbing others. They really fit nicely and can hold a charge for quite a long time. I should mention that I have been a Bose customer since the mid-70's and have multiple versions of speakere systems, both hard wired and bluetooth. The sound wuality has and always will be excellent.

I bought these a month ago. The sound is amazing,noise canceling - amazing, love the color ( lilac ) but they do not stay in my ears.!!Even though I switched to the smallest ear bud they keep slipping out of my ears...if I so much as smile they fall out. what would you recommend for petite ears ??
