“These are some of the best headphones I've ever owned. The sound, comfort, and noise canceling are all top-tier, and the features make them super versatile.”r/headphones
Owners upgrading from older Bose models report that “the crackling treble issues that occur on the 35's and 45's are totally gone on the QC Ultra's”8, with the added ability to tune treble to personal taste. Comfort remains a consistent strength, with one reviewer noting the new headphones are “90% as comfortable as my QC35II's”7, though the revised ear cup materials drew attention as a deliberate durability trade-off, since “many people see the cushions fall apart within a year”9 on older models. The Bose Immersive Audio feature divided users, with some finding it hit-or-miss depending on genre, while the Gen 2 earned a straightforward summary from one owner: “the sound, comfort, and noise canceling are all top-tier, and the features make them super versatile”6.
