Driftwood Sand - I hate it.
I waited for weeks for the Driftwood Sand to come in stock on Amazon, before buying the QC Gen 2s, because it was the only color I liked. They arrived yesterday. I already sent them back.
I thought it might just be my phone, but I've found several other stock photos and videos with a more accurate

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.

Earpad starting to peel on QuietComfort Ultras, anything I can do?
It's a shame that a product that costs 400$ starts to deteriorate one year after usage.. anyway, you can buy and replace your pads from the Bose site https://www.bose.com/p/accessories/bose-quietcomfort-ultra-headphones-ear-cushion-kit/CMWB-QCUH-CUSHIONKIT.html

Returned Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds after almost a month of use :/
Honestly, I was kinda bummed to let them go due to the amazing sound and nose canceling. But ultimately, the price point and all the issues I was having just simply wasn't worth it. I'd rather have my $300 back and continue looking for a pair of noise canceling earbuds that suit me.
Pros:

Noise protection
You're welcome! For reference I have the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra 2 and I have the Airpods Pro 2. Pros have better noise cancellation than non pros.

Accidental fall bose ear buds quietcomfort ultra 2nd gen
This is the second time an earbud falls once on the ground and the noise cancellation gets broken. The first gen was a lot more sturdy. For 300€ it's unacceptable.

Time to say goodbye (PX8 007 Edition)
I prefer and mostly use Bose QC Ultra headphones and earbuds when traveling and going outdoors, but I also own the Px8 007 Edition and they are in "pristine order". I keep them always at home in the case and only use them wired with my desktop PC when working from home or doing some PC gaming. I wil

New QuietComfort Ultra vs NC700
I was looking over the tech specs for the new QuietComfort Ultra over the ear headphones, and can't really see anything that would make me trade in my NC700s (which I love) for them. I am assuming this is positioned to replace the NC700, but with few significant improvements. Am I missing somethin

Bose QC Ultra 2 headphones long-term review
I rate the BOSE QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (black) a 7 out of 10. What disappointed me the most was that the inner part of the headphones came loose after ONE YEAR 🤯. I ordered these headphones specifically for their premium quality (they aren’t cheap), but I felt like the brand name was actually
