abunda_amazon_reviews I now have purchased, two of these Bose QuietComfort 25, and they are the best ever headphones for noise canceling.......while they worked! (I rarely write reviews for anything). I travel 2-4 times a week on a plane, and I never hear the engine or baby noise. Both pairs died at 12 months, at about the time of the warranty expiration date. The planned obsolescence for failure, in my opinion, to stop at exactly 12 months, is unfortunate. The warranty is not applicable here, unless bought directly through Bose and not Amazon (found that out the hard way of emails). I love Bose, but the gauge of wire used for the internal connection (too thin or loosely soldered), or the planned obsolescence from Bose, is insufficient to last for anyone, that actually uses the headphones on a regular basis. BTW: I own JBL, Sennheiser, Phiaton headphones, as well. Bose, when working are the best noise canceling of the 4 headphones I own....but will not last!!! Please Bose, fix this engineering or accounting problem, for these potentially great headphones. Thank you.

It just broke, all of a sudden. I've always taken good care of this earphones, and always put them in the case when not in use, and I even have a small wire organizer to tidy up the cable (surprisingly they didn't provide one for you). It's been working fine, until recently, 2 months out of my warranty, the left ear cup completely went silent. I tried many ways, and I couldn't resurrect it at all. This is completely on me that I just bought a $300 earphone that only lasted little more than 2 years. $150 PER YEAR for this crap. If you read through the reviews, you'll notice a pattern here. Lots of people are complaining that one of the ear cups falls silent after a year or two. DON'T BUY THIS. It's too broken. Shame on Bose.;;Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;DON'T BUY. BREAKS OFTEN.;;Michael Li;;;When I first used these headphones I was thrilled. They were very comfortable and the noise cancelling was the absolute best. I was very happy and looking forward to the next flight about a month later. My wife had a set from another manufacturer but these were so superior I was going to buy her a pair as well. When I put them on for the second flight however, the on-off switch was intermittent and the right earphone was dead. I changed to a new battery and tried a different set of phones to see if the connection was at fault. Unfortunately after trying everything I had to conclude that it was my brand new $300.00 headphones that were at fault. They were always kept in their (very nice) case and never banged around or abused. I might have thought this pair was just a "lemon" but too many others have run into these sorts of hardware problems. This is not an acceptable failure rate for a $300.00 pair of earphones from a company with Bose's reputation. I would not buy them again and would advise that if you choose to do so, you might get lucky but you should be aware that it is a crap shoot.;;Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2016;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Not up to Bose standards.;;Terrance V. Lindoerfer;;;When I received the product it was amazing, sounded just as I expected. Within a couple months the left side of the headphones started giving trouble and eventually stopped working. When I contacted Bose they sent me a replacement but within a month the same problem occurred. When I contacted them and informed them about the issue they said that there was nothing they could do. I am very disappointed by the quality assurance and their customer service. I will not recommend anyone buy this product or any of their others.;;Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2016;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;When I received the product it was amazing, sounded just as I expected;;Nicole Mitchell;;;Just like the numerous other people out there, I had one side of my Bose QC25 headphones go out. I was lucky I guess that they lasted for about 2 years. From what I've read in these reviews and on Google searches, most people have them fail long before that. I handled them very carefully, always stored them in the case, and only used them on long flights a couple of times a year. So I guess I spent $300+ for maybe 6 to 8 uses. Sigh. Not a great return on my investment! The saddest part is that my backup pair are some Bose QC 3's that have been going strong since 2009! Obviously Bose is cutting some corners these days because the quality is dropping fast. I was going to replace these QC25's with a new QC35 model, but looks like those have the same problem with one ear going out. I will have to try Sony or Sennheiser instead, I guess. I have multiple Bose products and used to trust them as the gold standard, but I don't think I will ever buy Bose again.;;Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;DO NOT BUY! They are great headphones...if you only have ONE EAR!;;T. Beck;;;After several months, the noise cancelling aspect started fading in and out when turned on. Very disappointing as this was the reason I bought these and believed the "as new" description for the pair I bought. Also, even when working the noise cancelling is not consistently high quality. Good for air conditioning noise but not so great for planes for example. Rather disappointing given the price. And in talking to repair person was told that it wasn't worth the price of fixing and I should just buy another pair.;;Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;Started not to work after 6 months...;;K. Hemphill;;;There is a defect. In 2 out of 3 pairs I own, the right speaker died. This is a very common problem, if you do a google search you will see it.;;Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2017;;1.0 out of 5 stars;;There is a defect.

I can tell you that these wired Bose headphones provide a better quality sound than any of my friends’ Bluetooth Bose headphones, which was one of the reasons I purchased this model; sound matters. The deep bass is noticeably better. I also didn’t want to have one more device in my house that needed a charge every few days. What I didn’t expect, however, was that the little AAA battery needed in the headphones for noise canceling would die as often as it does. After two weeks of ownership, I am now on my 3rd battery. Part of this is due to me falling asleep with the headphones while the noise cancelling switch was turned on. If you are religious about turning off the noise canceling whenever you aren’t using it, the battery will last a little longer than mine. I wish the noise canceling function would automatically turn off after 1 hour of no audio being played through the headphones.;;Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2018;;4.0 out of 5 stars;;Can Burn Through AAA Batteries;;GreenB
