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

In the 1st gen Ultra Headphones there were 12 microphones, now there are only 10.

Px8s2 on the plane
I bought a pair of the Bose QC Ultra 2 headphones to replace my overly heavy AirPod Max. The Bose and the AirPods were roughly the same when it came to ANC. But the Bose sounded terrible. Music sounded compressed, like it was never truly quiet and distinct parts of the music were blurred over. While

Sennheiser HDB 630 review: Audiophile ANC, at a cost
Well, it‘s a bit like the review says: „If you absolutely need superior ANC, then you’re going to have to get comfortable with a number of tradeoffs. For example, you could grab any of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen.) ($449 at Amazon), Sony WH-1000XM6 ($448 at Amazon), or JBL Tour One M3 ($449

Bose QuietComfort ultra..impossible to listen to on the bus
Hi, I own the Bose QuietComfort Ultra and I recently bought the px8 as well. I'm so confused.. I bought the px8 thinking I would make a significant leap in terms of audio quality. And instead, paradoxically, I like the low sounds of the Bose better. The sound seems more dynamic.. More fun. But The t

Scared to buy Bose again..
I had a pair of QC45's that I absolutely LOVED... Until they randomly stopped connecting and ultimately died. Because of this I've developed trust issues with Bose and I'm scared to purchase again. The most frustrating thing about it is that the headphones were not within the warranty period despite
