I invested in the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, expecting top-tier performance given their premium price. While the audio quality for music is commendable, the call functionality is severely lacking.
During phone calls, especially in outdoor or noisy environments, my callers consistently report

I've bought my QC ultras (1.gen) at release and I constantly get complains from people that the background noises are really loud in calls, to the extent that they are louder than my own voice. I had similar peoblems with my 700s before and thought it is better with the qc ultras.

Should I still get Bose Quietcomfort Ultra 2?
I recently updated from Bose NC 700 to QC Ultra 2 at work and I've been very disappointed.
