Buy it if
- Best-in-class ANC performance, especially effective on airplane noise
- Wireless charging case included
- Improved call quality over Gen 1 — handles noisy environments well
Skip it if
- Very bulky design — people with small or medium ears may feel discomfort over hours
- Only 6-7 hours battery life with ANC on — below average for the price
- $299 price tag only justified for those who prioritize ANC above all else
“I had the original QuietComforts and these are a big step up in terms of sound, noise cancellation, and comfort. One area where Bose struggled for a long time was call quality, but that has been drastically improved. It is not quite at Apple's level yet but still really good.”r/bose
Community reactions to the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds 2nd Gen are sharply divided. One user who upgraded from the original QuietComforts found them “a big step up in terms of sound, noise cancellation, and comfort”6, noting that “call quality has been drastically improved” though “not quite at Apple's level yet”6. Others were far less impressed, with one critic arguing that “its noise cancelling aint even that great”7 and flagging a persistent frustration: “you need to manually connect to it whenever you switch to different devices even though its registered”7
