  • Wonderful!
Color: Triple Black
I am trying to give here the kind of info I would have wanted while shopping. In addition to looking for headphones that meet my audio needs, I am also blind and wanted a good description since I could not see the photos. I have been a Bose user for many years, first wired headphones, then SoundLink,, then bought the QC 35 for my stepdaughter and then the NC700 for myself. I replaced my NC 700 headphones with QuietComfort 45 and I am quite happy. The QC 45 are over-ear headphones (cups that fit over the entire ear). The band goes over your head and the part that touches your head is rubbery in texture, not slick like the NC 700. This is a definite improvement. It retains the noise cancelling ability but the headset won't fly off your head if you move quickly. The controls for the QC45 are all buttons and switches--a huge plus! I won't be accidentally hanging up on people or anything else. Also, blind people hate the touch controls. Thank you, Bose, for bringing back the buttons! The Bose Music app is also much improved! There are no more unlabeled buttons! In the app, the tips are very descriptive and will provide all the help one needs to know which controls do what. If you have owned the old Soundlink model, the controls are exactly the same. These headphones fold just like the old Soundlink model. This is also a major advantage for me over the NC700. I have found the sound quality to be improved over the NC 700. I should say that I have a hearing loss and I may simply prefer this headset to the other. I think the NC 700 may be better at producing base, so keep this in mind if you have a strong preference for particular sound quality. On the other hand it is also possible to change the settings via the EQ in the music app. Some reviews are mentioning a radio-type sound. This happened when I tried to pair with a PC, specifically if I tried connecting to "headset" instead of "headphones". I have paired with my phone through the music app first, then had the music app place the headphones in pairing mode and set my PC to search for devices. I am having no trouble with sound quality. The only thing I personally wish is that these were on-ear headphones. I don't actually like over-ear products but I also don't like earbuds. It's not something to mark them down for, just a personal preference. ... show more

  • Better than Quiet Comfort 35 ii
Color: Triple Black
I was hesistant to purchase the new 45's after reading the reviews. After years of using Quiet Comfort 35 ii's, I can safely say these have better sound quality. No doubt about it, using these back to back with a pair of 35's, these were significantly better. Were they massive better? I would say easily better sound, not massively better sound. With the high's of the 45's you hear more, you here more sound, more crisp highs, and that's where the difference is. Bass was the same between the two headphones, the difference is the highs. The quality of the head phones is a bit better all around too, better buttons, better head cushion, no Bose emblem to damage or rub off. Bluetooth 5.1 way way better than 4.0. I can listen to these headphones from severall rooms away, in comparison, 35's are not reliable from only 15 to 20 feet away. Even if everything with the 35's and 45's were equal (which they are not), the bluetooh 5.1 is massive upgrade over 4.0. Only negative, is using two devices at once, I have some problems with the headphones from transitioning to one device to the next. That's possibly because other devices I am using are not bluetooth 5.1 (but are 4.0). That's really the only negative about these headphones. Easily forgiven, since everything else on these headphones is superior. Also, USB C, much faster charging is nice, easy to connect over mini USB. Noise canceling is way way better. Cannot even hear a person next to you when listening to music at a decent volume level. Bravo Bose, Bravo!!! I was highly skeptical at first, wasn't going to purchase... Glad I did. Highly recommend over 35 ii's, worth the extra money easily. I couldn't even go back to the 35's after using these. ... show more

  • Literally one of my best purchases
Color: Triple Black
I got these because they supposedly had decent noise canceling, and they were light weight. The noise cancelling is pretty good, and you can't really hear much at all if you have music on, but you can still hear everything (just muffled) with no sound playing. Which is ideal for me, and something I really like about this product. They are also not that heavy, and don't give me awful headaches like a lot of headphones do. The sound quality is also GREAT. The only downsides are that the mic is a little quiet, and you won't be able to be heard over the phone on a windy day. And they aren't super tight on my head, so they do fall off easy if you're doing even light jogging. They also connect to your devices pretty quickly, especially if you use the same device over and over. The only problem is when someone decides to borrow them, and then it has to test that connection first the next time you pick them up. Even WORSE if they're in the room because they will constantly connect to that device haha. That being said, I use these at my desk, and to walk to class all the time. The battery lasts ages (although it does take a little while to charge), and they're super comfortable. The case also keeps them nicely packed, and they are much sturdier than they look. I usually just put them around my neck to leave the house, and honestly I have had no problems with that in terms of wear. I've had them for a little over a year now, and I use them just about every day, and they are showing ZERO signs of wear or tear. I would HIGHLY recommend these. ... show more

  • One Month of Use, No Complaints Whatsoever (Will Update in A Year)
Color: Triple Black
I did a lot of research looking into bluetooth headphones; as someone with hearing damage and is very picky about how their headphones rest on their ears, I knew I couldn't settle. I bought various other pairs before trying Bose Quiet Comfort, such as KVIDIO (Not tight to head/sound leaking, bassy sound), Sennheiser 350BT (Pinched my ears, quieter than other sets, could hear myself in calls and couldn't turn off in app), and Soundcore Q35 (Entirely different sound depending on the device and if plugged in, couldn't listen to music and be in voice call at same time without plugging in), all of which had their dilemmas. I really wanted a nice pair of bluetooth headphones for cheap, but in my search I recognized that wasn't possible, so I saved up what I had and thankfully snagged this on discount (bought for $180). The sound is absolutely immersive; my worries about these headphones was that the bass was going to be too heavy, as SONY bluetooth headphones and other sets in this price range are usually very bass heavy. Fortunately, that wasn't the case with Quiet Comfort; it's strong, but it doesn't overpower. The mids and treble sound great too, and I can't say I've had any issues with listening to music, calls with friends, etc, other than those friends having shoddy microphones (No problem though). The fit on this set is also solid; I have noticed in warmer weather that my ears get sweaty, but that's to be expected with any headset that's over-ear. My only note is that I noticed the inside of the headphones have molded to my ear. When I first got them, the meshy material with the L and R was flat, but now it's slightly caved in. I'm not sure if it's impacted anything, because I haven't heard a difference in sound, and they don't feel different. I will keep an eye on it for when I update this review. The controls are simple, a switch on button and three buttons to turn up, down, pause, and skip music (and if on mobile, to use your voice assistant) on the right cuff. On the left, the only button is the noise cancelling (two settings; aware and noise-cancel). I enjoy that this headset has two ports, one for charging, and another to plug them into the device to use instead of bluetooth. However, I will note to anyone that uses these headphones plugged in; when the set is in wired mode, it disables bluetooth, and when still on it sounds incredibly quiet. And, when turned off and plugged in, the EQ and Stereo Sound disable, so using the headphones without them being on is really rough. These doesn't steer me away from using them though, as I mainly use them on and via bluetooth. I mean, to be honest, who uses bluetooth headphones with a wire anyway unless they're dead? I'm also actually pretty impressed by the battery on these. They last me all day and night, and I plug them in when I sleep. They charge really fast, and I've only had two occasions of low battery, mainly due to me forgetting to charge em. Overall, my only worry onward is the deterioration, if there is any, and possible connection issues. Haven't had those yet, and hopefully I won't in a year. ... show more

  • Comfortable, great sound, some minor annoyances
Color: Triple Black
I've had the QC45s for about a month. I got them because my roommate has had a pair of QC35 IIs for many years, and I wanted a pair of my own and wanted to see if the reality was as bad as some of the reviews. Overall, the negative reviews are a bit exaggerated - I think these are great headphones. Super comfortable, great noise cancellation, pretty solid battery life. The ability to edit the quality of the sound in the app (more/less bass, treble, middle, etc) is really nice and has made a noticeable difference in the quality. Based on what I've read, this was a very recent addition to the QC45s and was much needed. However, there are a couple of issues. One of the most annoying things that was proven TRUE from the negative reviews is this: whenever I'm connected to both my laptop and my phone, if I'm listening to my laptop audio through the QC45s, there are little lapses/missteps in audio every couple of minutes. They are quick, but they are annoyingly noticeable because they are frequent. And this is a consistent problem. THE SOLUTION is to disconnect your phone through the Bose Music app if you plan to use your computer audio for the day (i.e. a long workday). If you disconnect your phone, you'll eventually have to reconnect (of course), but it will stay connected to your laptop and the audio has been perfect with this strategy. Small, but annoying nonetheless. Another thing: it's not easy to switch between the laptop and the phone audio through the Bose Music app. It seems like my laptop takes 'precedence' when I turn on the headset (it remembers both), so if I want to switch to my phone audio, I have to go into the app and turn off the laptop connection manually. I wish the headset was more intuitive/there was a quicker way to change. Sound quality is very comparable to the QC35 IIs (perhaps because of the ability to manually edit the different levels of sound in the app), just as comfortable, and honestly look a lot better. TLDR; I think these are bit overhated, I've liked them and look forward to continuing to use them (and hopefully to Bose continuing to update them and improve the QOL and usage). I do agree that if you don't care about the aesthetic (QC45 looks much better than QC 35 II in my opinion), you would have a very similar experience with both of these. ... show more

  • True noise canceling and definitely worth the money!
Color: Triple Black
Used these headpones a few times and they are awesome!! The sound is amazing!! They have two modes, Quiet and Aware. Aware allows you to hear your surroundings while you have music playing, which is nice when you are out in public and need to be aware of your surroundings. Quiet mutes all surrounding noises. And Quiet works wonders!! I have been looking for true noise canceling headphones and these are best. I can't hear Anything! Someone next to me had to actually yell almost at the top of their lungs before I finally heard them. Finally blissful quiet. I'm in heaven. Used the phone call feature and heard the other person fine. One issue i did find was that all of a sudden there was static noise in the right ear phone. It wasn't interference or anything like that. I could still hear music, there was just loud static when it was on Aware. I troubleshooted and nothing helped - turned it on/off, disabled features, changes settings, turned off Bluetooth and multi point access, everything, nothing worked and I was still hearing static during Aware mode. Finally, not having anything else to lose, I took a page of age old advice from my parents/grandparents era and gave it the old tried and true light smack to the outside cover and it fixed itself. I can't believe it actually worked! No more static. Go figure! So glad I didn't have to return these. ... show more

  • Totally worth it!
Color: Triple Black
4 things I like about these headphones: Super comfortable, great sound quality, great noise cancellation and great battery life. I’m an ups driver and I wear these sometimes when delivering so I can stay up to date on my favorite podcasts/music etc. My truck is typically really loud so the noise cancellation feature is really helpful with these. One underrated thing about noise cancellation is it allows me to listen at what I call a healthy volume, not to the max like AirPods. Battery life will typically last me 2-3 days without charging but I charge them daily. I’d say playing time on a full charge is at least 20hrs maybe more. Comfortability is great. I’ve worn these for 10hrs straight before while hopping in and out of my truck all day and never experienced any discomfort whatsoever. My girlfriend also wore them while running a 10k and said they were excellent. All in all I’m fully satisfied with my purchase and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a quality pair of noise cancelling headphones. I’ll probably never go back to using regular headphones again lol ... show more

  • Nice upgrade to the QC 35 series
Color: Triple Black
I had the previous QC35 headphones and loved them. Unfortunately, they were stolen and decided to buy the new (at that moment) NC700. Even though the NC700 are very good headphones, they can't compete with the sound quality of the QC35. The NC700 has very pronounced mids and highs to my taste which gets annoying some times and quite uncomfortable. Also the ergonomics of the NC700 is not very good and my ears suffer in prolonged calls or music listening sessions. In a recent trip to the US had the chance to test the new QC45 side by side with the NC700 and the difference is very noticeable. The new QC45 is a great update to the QC35 series, with a more rounded sound, very balanced, good bass and clear mids and highs that won't annoy you. It was a pleasure to hear the same sound of the QC35 back again. The addition to USB type C, and refined noise cancelation makes this new headphone a winner. Also, mic quality has improved and they keep the same comfortable ergonomics as the QC35. On the features side, they don't have as many options as the NC700, but I think they are not worth it for the sound the QC45 provides. Also the touch interface of the NC700 does not add too much to the usability and I really prefer physical buttons as with the QC45. ... show more
