“Do not buy the earbuds, I just recently bought it and experiencing connectivity issues which makes it almost unusable. Also, the sound cuts off randomly which is annoying”
“the noise cancellation was awesome for the ads and crowd noise (obviously, I took them out when the movie started). Today I wore them to the gym, and I could only hear my music.”
“I just bought a pair of Qc buds gen 2 and want to say its ANC is better but Sony has a better sound with DESS extreme, better means more studio, audiophile level sound while Bose is more immersive and Beats by dre like.”
“If I'm wearing my Qc2 earbuds and playing a podcast within a few metres of the tv/speaker, I can make out the sound reasonably clearly.”
“The Bose QC earbuds are great for reducing the dull roar down to a tolerable level, and if you have music playing at around 20%, you can barely hear anything else.”
“The 2nd pair i bought ($350 EA=$700 spent) just broke...as did the 1st. BOTH were less than 1YR of use...the collar the silicone ear fit attaches to snapped off with silicone fit (again)...BRUTAL”
“The only gripe I have compared to the 1st Gen is that tapping the buds to use the controls sounds so loud. It's quite annoying and almost impossible to do in a feather-touch way that doesn't sound loud. Other than that, they're great.”
“I’m very disappointed on the noise cancellation because when I put the earbuds right next to the vacuum cleaner, I’m still hearing the vacuum cleaner just a tiny bit”
“I have 2 pairs of the gen 2. Zero complaints. They both paid immediately to my android phone as well as my iPad. They sound great. ANC on airplanes is exceptional. Voice quality on calls is very good.”
“I have both and when I go to restaurants I use my earbuds. I can never hear my server talking to me, so I tell them I can't hear anything with them in.”
“they work really will at cancelling the noise but they have fallen out my ear or ears on more than one occasion”
“I had mine for repair 3 times within 2 months. Eventually, the deal was reversed. It was simply the worst thing bad. The only positive was that their noise cancellation is great. Everything else is crap.”
“my Bose QC Ultra in ear too) have better full spectrum ANC because they block sound more thoroughly by fully blocking the ear canal.”
“its noise cancelling aint even that great, and you need to manually connect to it whenever you switch to different devices even though its registered”
“the quiet comfort is very good at blocking out background "noise" but not necessarily conversations or voices”
“They are comfortable for longtime use, sound just a tiny bit better, crisper than AirPods Pro 3, and they stay in your ears great for the gym. The noise cancellation is great! My reoccurring issue with the Bose QC are the random disconnects from iPhone.”
“I had this crawling sound on my first day of using them. Now, couple of days later, it's not anymore, but I suspect, it's gonna return at some point.”
“Do the Quietcomfort 2nd gen for the isolation but Airpods 3 for the transparency. Best in class for those respective areas.”
“I was vacuuming while talking to someone on the phone and not only could I hear them, they could not hear the vacuum”
“The white noise seems to be lower, and 2. I did not hear the mosquito sound that my light blue ones had.”
“Gen 2 connectivity is terrible on my Galaxy S25 and also Galaxy A35. take a long time to connect rarely auto connect often get sound on only one earbud sometimes disconnect on their own despite high battery charge”
“They are great buds, and I have enjoyed them. But they are massive, and they have a stupid case.”
“The ANC is incredibly good. Total peace, you have to experience it for yourself. Clear purchase recommendation!”
“Yes there is a faint hiss..my hearing its... well even if you set the ANC to lowest level it seems it is on, you can't turn it off completely.”
