Bose QuietComfort 35 II Wireless Bluetooth Headphones, Noise-Cancelling, with Alexa Voice Control - Black

These headphones have received rave reviews in the past for best in class noise cancelling. I bought these after trying a pair a co-worker has and I did not get that experience. The noise cancelling is almost non-existent - I have a pair of 50$ anc headphones that cancel more sound. On the upside, they are comfortable and compact. Unfortunately I cant justify the cost for those two points alone.

I purchased noise canceling headphones to help dampen distracting noise while working from home. I did not intend to use them for phone calls, and indeed I have not ever tried to do so, so my review does not cover that feature. I tried the Bose QuietComfort 45, the Sony WH-1000XM4, and the Bose QuietComfort 35 II. I kept the QC 35IIs.

Using these mostly while working outdoors doing landscape work. Makes answering calls easy and very clear too.

These really make you appreciate the difference.

Perfect if you also own AirPods. Top of their class. But could be better for working out. Especially if the over ther ear cushion was waterproof. Everything I don’t like about one I love about the other. Not to they are not both excellent in their own right though. Both doing what they do best exceeding well. Together they fulfill all of my headphone needs. The Bose has better sound and superb noise cancellation. I only gave it 4 because it isn’t 100%. But no consumer headphones are. I only have to charge it about once a week. The AirPods are the most portable and convenient to use headphones I’ve ever seen. When you wear them they are practically weightless. And I don’t have to worry about them falling out. Your mileage may very on the fit. Plus being able to hear the outside world is about a plus when you are jogging or skiing. For home, office, airplane, and the like these Bose headphones will not disappoint.

Very comfortable, noise cancelling is excellent. Sound quality is overall good. I personally prefer deep bass on my headphones but this Bose headphones do not deliver on that. My Jaybird X3 have excellent sounds quality, if only Boses headphones had the same or even better sound quality I would 100% recommend.

One of those purchases you think are overpriced until you use them. My roommates are super noisy and these have brought me great peace. So durable and comfortable I dont mind falling asleep with them on. They also charge super quick and last for hours if not days. Oh, they sound great too!

This is a good headphone, but if you are looking for cancelling, tho it is not what your are looking for

Second one , this for my wife

Sound and noise canceling seemed very good. However these were a nightmare to get bluetooth connected properly. My wife wanted them for the computer when working and TV in the evening. Could not get them to seamlessly switch between devices with out having to clear the bluetooth connections and starting over.
