Bose QuietComfort 35 II Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones— Wireless, Over Ear Headphones with Built in Microphone and Voice Control, Black

Amazing, I still prefer Sony M3. Update: for new noise cancelling headsets, these category of headsets are not so comfortable on the ears for long daily use. And the mic is not the best quality if you are planning to attend meetings when you have background noise or outdoors. For meetings, jabra evolve 65 is the best.

Noise cancellation.good sound.

These headphones are more expensive in the Gulf than western world (and less tax is on these headphones). But they are still great headphones. Best on the market and in my opinion better than the Bose 700.

Got my headphones delivered today. Love it already. The quality of the sound is amazing Noise cancelling feature is 98% accurate. Worth the money.

Overall I'm pleased with the quality and sound quality of these headphones, although I'd expect more at this price tag. Pros - Excellent sound quality - Ambiance noise suppression mode is very nice feature, works quite well. Please don't use this mode outside as this may be dangerous! - Very soft earpads, sits comfortably and no pressure on ears or head - Ability to connect to 2 devices at once over Bluetooth is a very handy feature, but I'd wish it could handle more devices - Ability to use wired connection when necessary. This is very good, especially given the average time on battery Cons - The Android app from Bose is mediocre. It doesn't remember the headset and asks to re-discover it all the time. - Mic is too sensitive. It is not good for the conferencing if your environment is noisy - Battery life is so-so. If you plan to use it in wireless mode, be prepared to charge it often - No wireless charging. - Earpads are so soft that they will not last very long. Be prepared to replace them after 1-2 years of normal use.

There are enough reviews out there. So no need to “copy & paste” ;-) I love it. As a frequent flyer this make your live much more comfortable (in economy) than I could have expected ! Why Economy ? Cause I am not carrying it with me if I fly Business ;-)

Everything was ok

I ordered this product because I was looking to have it long time as the Bose one of the beasts headphones in the world

Everything I say is subjective and based on my own likes/dislikes and most importantly, my priorities. This is my 3rd Bose. I had a QC25 for about 3 years, then a QC35 which got stolen (hope that fellow is rotting somewhere). I had to decide what to get as a replacement. One of the priorities was cost as I didn't want to spend a lot. Sony's XM 4 & 5 looked great especially XM5 which had ironed out a lot of kinks from XM4. But the thing with Sony is that their sound signature is quite bass heavy and in many sound samples, they just sound muddy. I agree there is Sony's app with equalizer but I also didn't like the Auto NC they implemented. Sennheiser had Momentum 4 which had a couple of things I didn't like (plus cost). I also checked Bose 700 and QC45. The issue with QC45 is they have removed the ability to reduce NC levels making it unusable in windy conditions. Bose 700 had strong head pressure and I don't like touch controls, plus expensive. After watching tons of reviews of above headphones on YT and trying them in the stores, I decided to go with either QC 35 or this one, QC35 II. I'll detail my findings below. Noise Cancellation: The difference in Active NC in most headphones is very little. Some cancel lower freqs better while some cancel higher freqs better. You can't go wrong with most good HP these days. But having the ability to control the level of NC is a big plus. The QC35 II has an extra button (compared to QC35) which I can program to control the NC level. This is very useful as I can wear it outside in windy conditions without the winding blowing my ears away. By setting the NC level to low, wind noise is totally eliminated. The QC 35 II did work perfectly on flights by cutting the aircraft noise. (similar to QC35). Comfort: I felt the Bose to be the most comfortable HP amongst all I tried (above). I already have used the QC series before for years and I use the HP for long hours on a daily basis. I hardly feel discomfort, even after wearing them for 7-8 hours (flights). The cushions are soft and easy on the skin, the cups are deep enough for my big ears and the head band doesn't exert the pressure like the Hulk (or the Bose 700). I felt the Sony to be slight less comfortable when I tried them. The comfort is also in using the HP. I hate touch controls and prefer buttons, but the modern human needs to complicate things. Tactile buttons on the QC 35 II are simple, and just work. Materials: Quality of materials is excellent. The top cushion on the head band is soft and comfortable on top of the head. The cushions are great, the cups are made of some fiber (but not plastic), so they feel light yet premium to touch. The buttons feel snappy and firm to touch. The head band extension mechanism is also straightforward and easy to use without having to take them off (unlike the Bose 700 which I felt were quite horrible in this aspect due to its extension design) Price: QC35 II being an older model, I got this for about 21.5K INR. Lot better for what it gives me compared to QC 45, 700, or ones from other brands. This price worked well for me as this purchase itself was a sudden expenditure that I had not budgeted for. Sound: The Bose sound signature is relatively flatter compared to Sony (especially), but the sound stage feels wider and the sound itself feels more natural and authentic. Very difficult to explain unless one hears it themselves. I like this signature because of the type of music I listen as well as for gaming. You can use 3rd party equalizer apps if you want to tweak the sound (not the best solution) as the Bose app doesn't allow equalizer settings for the QC35 II like they do with QC45 (3 band that too). Sony does this better. But to my liking this works and I have no complaints. BT & Connectivity: You can connect to 2 devices at a time (sound only from one, but useful in case of receiving calls). The BT connectivity setup is fairly quick and without hiccups. The HP also comes with an audio cable (3.5mm audio port to 2.5mm HP port). This allows you to use the HP when the battery is down as well. Still can't use NC when its charging, though, but I read that it was for safety reasons. The BT connectivity is decent distance wise but in Indian homes, moving from one room to the other caused the connection to break. I'm guessing this is due to the construction of home (thicker walls? brick & cement? IDK) but this doesn't happen when I'm abroad and move across my house. But this is not a negative. One more thing I couldn't care less about is the Voice Assistant. I didn't want this feature and I don't use it on these HPs. I also don't want a machine listening to me and learning stuff. In the box: The pouch the HP comes in is great. It is sturdy enough and flat and comes with pockets. Great. The audio cable is good as mentioned above. It comes with a USB-micro USB charging cable, but it is very short. But they don't provide you with an airplane adapter. I still have mine from the QC25 but, seriously Bose. You can't include a small plastic thingy for this price? Overall, for the price and for what it offers, I felt it was best to go with something I was comfortable with. The QC35 II ticked all the boxes for me.

Ürünü 1 aydır kullanıyorum. 1- Ses kalitesi oldukça iyi. Dinlerken yarattığı ambians ve bas-tiz-mid netliği mükemmele yakın. Bunun için müzik dinlediğiniz kaynağın da iyi olması gerekiyor. Kulaklıkla uzun süre Spotify'da müzik dinledikten sonra Soundcloud'a geçince aradaki fark çok net anlaşılıyor, "ben ne dinliyormuşum meğer" diyorsunuz :). 2- Daha önceden Marshall Major 2 kullanıyordum, en son ne zaman şarj ettiğimi unutuyordum. Bu kulaklıkta ise çalışırken sürekli açık olduğunu varsayarsak 2 gün ancak yetiyor. Hoşuma gitmeyen bir durum. 3- 2 cihaza aynı anda bağlanabilme özelliği müthiş rahatlık. Telefon ve bilgisayarıma bağlı gün içerisinde, telefonum çaldığında rahatlıkla ekstra tuşa basmadan kulaklığımla konuşmaya başlayabiliyorum. Ses gecikmesi çok çok az olduğundan dolayı rahatlıkla film/dizi izleyebilirsiniz. 4- Mikrofonunun iyi olmadığını söyleyebilirim. Dışarıdan gelen sesleri siz duymuyorsunuz ama karşı taraf duyuyor. Zaten başlıktan da belirttiğim gibi müzik kulaklığı :). 5- ANC özelliği ortalama diyebilirim, ANC'si iyi olan bir kulaklık önceliğinizse sizi tatmin etmeyebilir. Benim için ciddi bir konu değil, çoğu zaman ANC OFF olarak kullanıyorum, HIGH yada LOW modunda sesi kesmek için yaydığı frekans beni çok rahatsız ediyor (tüm ANC kulaklıklarda durumum aynı) 6- Tasarımı çok şık, benim dikkat ettiğim konu değil ama gören özellikle tasarımının çok iyi olduğunu belirtiyor. kabıyla beraber geliyor. Rahatlıkla taşınabilir. Pedler veya kulaklığın ağırlığı uzun süreli kullanımlarda sizi rahatsız etmiyor. Kulağın çok rahat içerisinde durabilmesi için özellikle çalışmışlar sanırım. Kulakta olduğunu unutabilirsiniz müzik dinlerken. 7- Kutusunda gelen ses kablosu ince ve kısa. Kalitesiz ve her an temassızlık yapıp bozulacakmış gibi duruyor. Daha iyi bir kablo olmalıydı. Eğer müzik ağırlıklı kullanımınız varsa 9/10 kulaklık. 1 puanı piyasadaki tüm kulaklıkları deneyimlemediğim için kesiyorum.

Comprei o produto há aproximadamente 2 anos e tenho usado ele praticamente todos os dias. Pontos positivos: (+) Esse tipo de fone evita que as pessoas te interrompam, pois quando você está com um fone de ouvido é meio "falta de educação" alguém ir falar com você. (+) Qualidade do som é boa, achei o som em uma altura boa e qualidade excelente. (+/-) Apesar da almofada ter estragado após 1,5 anos de uso, achei muito fácil comprar uma nova na internet e repor, custou uns R$60 e fiz tudo sozinho com 20 min de video no youtube. (+) Bateria dura muito e carrega rápido, mesmo após 2 anos de uso, sempre carrego no PC. (-) É meio quente, para dias de calor é impossível ficar com ele muito tempo. Não dá para ficar ao ar livre com ele pegando sol também. (-) O sistema de conectividade dele é ruim para usar em 2 devices. Ele toda hora ficava desconectando do meu PC ou do meu celular, e um som interrompe o outro. Acabei comprando um AirPods Pro para o meu iPhone e usando ele exclusivamente para o PC. É possível de usar, mas eu não recomendo.

What is not to love about the brilliant sound of Bose headphones and the noise-cancelling is spectacular. It helps me zone out distractions and brings the fullness in audio for music and films. As a glasses wearer, I have to be conscious of comfort for usage that can last me a few hours for studying and working online. QC35 II provides me the comfort I need and the ease of switching between devices and I have to say this set does it so well and seamlessly. And even though this may be an older model, I love its classic timeless design. After going through several other headsets from Razer, HyperX Cloud and even Sony, I am finally happy! Bose is the best after all!

Ich habe den Sony MDR-950N1 vorher in gebrauch, was man auch bei Amazon bestellen kann. Ich rate davon ab, wenn man viel Wert auf die trage Qualität und die Qualität des Noise Cancelling legt. Eigentlich wollte ich mir kein Bose kaufen, weil ich gerne Klassische Musik unverfälscht hören möchte. Trotzdem habe ich mir diese Kopfhörer gekauft und bin froh ein Kopfhörer jetzt zu besitzen was man lange tragen und Musik hören kann, obwohl ich die 300€ als etwas viel empfinde. Ich habe einen Vergleich zwischen den Sony und den Bose Kopfhörer gemacht und liste diese hier auf. Da ich Hochsensibel bin, wird nicht jeder meine Meinung nachempfinden können. Aber für Hochsensible könnten dies eher bestätigen. Ton Qualität Die Ton Qualität von Bose ist meiner Meinung nach nicht so optimal, es hört sich nicht Original an. Weil die hohen Töne gedämpfte wiedergegeben werden. Wenn man aber ein empfindliches Ohr hat tut es den Ohren gut, weil diese nicht so stark belastet werden. Weil die Bose Kopfhörer die Ohren generell weniger mit hohen Tönen belasten, kann man auch lauter hören als mit anderen Produkten und schadet weniger dem Gehör. Ich merkte den Unterschied weil ich diese Bose Kopfhörer mit anderen Kopfhörer vergleichen kann. Habe auch ein Studiokopfhörer von Beyerdynamiks die sehr gut die original Töne wieder gibt. Nachdem ich mit Bose mehrere Stunden draussen war und permanent Klassik hörte, merke ich das belastet meine Ohren nicht viel. Also für Hochsensible Menschen, ist Bose eine gute Wahl wenn man auch mit der Musik die Ohren entlasten möchte. Man muss aber eins in kauf nehmen, die Töne klingen mehr gedämpfter. Während bei einigen Klavier Stücke ich bei den hohen Töne ein leichten schmerz in den Ohren Spürte (Sony, Beyerdynamiks) spüre ich diesen Schmerzen bei Bose nicht, was mehr ein Pluspunkt ist als ein Minuspunkt. Das ist weniger Stress für das Ohr im täglichen Gebrauch und ich muss sagen, danke Bose. Ich würde sogar behaupten dieses Produkt ist auch noch auf Hochsensible Menschen abgestimmt. Der satte Bass kommt in meinem fall mehr bei Klassik Rock zur Geltung. Obwohl dieses Produkt meiner Meinung nach die Töne nicht Original wieder gibt, dies aber Positive sich auf mein Gehör auswirkt hat, bekommt dieses Produkt von Bose für die Tonqualität 5 Sterne. Noise Cancelling Bei Bose ist das Grundrauschen in einem naja Akzeptablen Bereich, man hört es vor allem bei Stücken wo nur ein Klavier gespielt wird oder wenn man keine Musik hört und nur zur Geräuschunterdrücken es nutzen möchte. Es wirkt nicht so Störend auf mein Gehörgang. Der Sony MDR 950N1 hat regelrecht in den Gehörgang drücken gerauscht, was unangenehm ist wenn man nur das Noise Cancelling nutzen möchte. Bose hält sich hier für mich in einem Grenzbereich, wo ich sagen muss etwas mehr und das Produkt ist nur noch halb so gut. Auch hier gewinnt Bose haus hoch. Die S-Bahn fahrt hat sich mit Bose deutlich angenehmer angehört als mit Sony. Das Grundrauschen wird mehr mit der Fahrt verbunden und stört nicht mehr. Teilweise hörte ich nichts, ausser das Klavierspielen von Ludovico Einaudi. Der Test im Einkaufszentrum war auch deutlich besser als bei Sony. Während bei Sony,trotz eingeschalteten Noise Cancelling, Kindergeschrei mir in den Ohren weh tat, ist es etwas angenehmer mit Bose. Allgemeines zum Kopfhörer Bose ist für mich angenehmer als all meine anderen Kopfhörer. Die Ohrmuschel ist oval, was ich als die Optimale Form empfinde, wenn man dieses Produkt überall und täglich nutzen möchte. Man kann es mal eben um den Hals legen und sich kurz unterhalten, ohne das die Runde form wie von Sony zu sehr an den Kinn drückt. Die Tiefe der Ohrmuschel ist von Bose auch kleiner und sieht schlicht und normal aus. Das da wenige Knöpfe am Kopfhörer vorhanden ist, gefällt mir auch sehr. Die Auflage Fläche und damit auch "Schweiß Sammelfläche" ist bei Bose zum Glück gering. Bei Sony ist es größer. Die Freisprechfunktion von Bose ist echt gut. Ich hatte Befürchtung das es, wegen dem Micro am Ohrmuschel nicht gut funktioniert. Aber in geschossenen und ruhigen Räumen, kann man ganz normal reden, man muss nicht lauter reden wie sonst. Mein Fazit Egal was ich mir angucke, Bose gewinnt gegen Sony. Sony ist aber auch deutlich günstiger. Ich finde den Preis von 300€ als etwas viel, 250€ vielleicht auch 270€ würde ich den Preis einstufen. Da es aber für mich das ideale Produkt ist, weil es mein gehör gegen die belastenden hohen töne schützt und das Noise Cancelling in einem Akzeptablen Bereich sich befinden. Ich behalte den Bose und schicke es nicht zurück. Obwohl ich früher immer dachte Bose und Klassik passt nicht gut zusammen muss ich jetzt sagen "Da ich Täglich Musik höre in S-Bahn, beim Einkaufen und Schreiben und mein gehör nicht zu viel belasten will, trage ich die Bose Kopfhörer am Tag mehrere Stunden. Dafür ist Bose ist beste Wahl, deswegen können die unverschämt sein und etwas mehr Geld verlangen. Es sei ich will total in die Musik eintauchen und jeden Ton in Original hören, dann höre ich mit Beyerdynamiks und belaste mein gehör auch mehr. Was ich selten mache."
