A post-birthday gift

I’ve had the gen 1 QC earbuds since early 2021 and the QC Ultra headphones caught my interest a few months back especially since I’ve been traveling more in recent years.

  1. Sound Quality: Slight edge to the QC Ultra 2, sound feels slightly fuller with a slightly wider soundstage, even after EQ on the XM6. Again, the difference is slight, and hard to notice.

Never buying any more Bose products again

Have been lots of issues with the Bose quiet comfort ultra headphones too I’ve been noticing. It’s generally a good product but with the glitches and things not working as they should etc, start to wonder why I’m paying so much. Particularly with connectivity issues.

My replacement pair of bose qc ultras have arrived

Was really annoyed at how often, when using multipoint, how often the earbuds kept on disconnecting, then ultimately doing a restart every time I try to listen to these. Hopefully this pair will fare much better

Ultra all the way

I ended up buying both the QC Ultra earbuds and the QC Ultra headphones together. I acknowledge that there are better headphones available, but the ANC is unparalleled. While sound quality is subjective, in my case, noise cancellation was the ultimate deciding factor. The QC Ultra headphones are rep

What is your most trivial complaint about United?

Why won’t my Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds work with the newer entertainment system?? I have to use a Bluetooth adapter, so frustrating.
