An absolute game-changer!
I have owned Bose headphones since the original pair that was ever released.  Fast forward to about 5 pairs later, these headphones took me by surprise.  This was very close in experience to unboxing and using the original iPhone.  An absolute game changer.
Things I like:
1.  Greatly improved mechanical design.  Seems much more sturdy than other models, as you can defi...

You won’t know until you buy a pair!
I had to buy a second pair because I lost my first pair and didn’t have my ref number to get a replacement but other than that these are the best headphones. The comfort of them followed by the quality of how good you can clearly hear everything song, every instrument that’s used and just things you wouldn’t usually hear. I compare the bass of them to the kind of bass y...

Pretty good
Bought a week ago, the ANC is pretty good, great soundstage and overall great product, watching movies with this is so immersive it feels like I’m in the cinema! Speaking of, the immersion mode adds to the already great soundstage the headphones already give so it adds more flavour and personality to every music I listen to. Also I accidentally dropped it off my head on...

Easy to use
I love my new headphones phones, very easy to use and it works great blocking out outside noise. The only issue is that the head band even though padded becomes uncomfortable and I have to adjust it every few minutes to keep it from digging into my head.

Great product!
Received headphones two weeks ago and already love them. The noise cancellation is the perfect balance of sound comfort and quiet. The cushioned ear pads and the padding headband makes the headphones incredibly comfortable. It’s lightweight design allows you to wear them for hours. The only complaint is the volume control in the headphones, kind of tricky but if you use...

Great Call Quality
These headphones have been amazing. The upgrades with calls on the second gen really separates the QC Ulra from the rest of the market. Call quality is crystal clear virtually everywhere with no background noise at all.

Superior sound
I have several Bose headphones. With each and every updated headphones I have gotten they get better and better. The sound on the QCU2 is superior to most of my previous headphones. I was really amazed at the sound quality on the first call I used them on. It was with family and we didn't have any issues with our call. I usually call with my Bose SoundSport but if ...

Looove these Bose QC Ultra gen 2
Much more comfortable than prior versions and noise cancellation is pretty great. Along with updated ios app & firmware the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 is the one to beat.
The sound is strong, punchy bass and clear highs. Great new easy button activation

Slight improvement over 1st gen but recommended
I’ve had the 2nd gen almost a month now and really enjoy them. I purchased the 1st gen a little over a year ago and that’s what I’ll be comparing the 2nd gen to.
Overall it’s a great product. The sound is rich and with the app it’s able to be customized to the owner’s preference. Excellent noise cancellation and the immersion option seems to make the quality of musi...

Bring the GOOD noise.
I received the Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2nd gen headphones about 4 weeks ago.
They are the most advanced headphones in terms of technology I have ever used. Despite being complex technology wise they are super simple to use and provide a really enjoyable user process.
I am going to break this review into two sections. The look and the sound.
Let’s start with the lo...

Incredible. Just Incredible.
Best. Headphones. Ever. Blows any other headphones WAY out of the water. I can literally hear tiny details I never noticed in songs, and these are a blessing while on long road trips or mowing, because they are so light and comfy. 15/10, WOULD recommend. (Also the colors are beautiful)

Great for glasses wearers!
I wear these when I’m on the phone or working from home and they are GREAT. I can wear them for hours with my glasses on. I barely feel them on and they don’t squish my ears too tight like other headphones do when I wear my glasses. The cord they come with will come in handy when I go on my flight in a few weeks so I can watch movies on board.
