## Description

Better sound begins with better silence. So Bose engineered QuietComfort Earbuds with the world-class noise cancelling and high-fidelity audio. Because when you eliminate distractions, music goes up, and so does passion. Baking. Coding. Rock climbing. And every other thing that makes you — you. Our controllable noise cancelling allows you to eliminate distractions as needed, or let in your surroundings with a full Transparency Mode. It sounds — and feels — as if you aren’t wearing earbuds at all. Better still? These truly wireless earbuds also include exclusive Volume-optimized Active EQ for high-fidelity audio that sounds full and balanced at any volume. These comfortable earbuds are easy to wear all day long because every surface that touches your ear is made of soft silicone. Instead of buttons, these true wireless earbuds feature a capacitive touch interface. Tap and press the surface to control your content — just like you would with your phone. And the instant you take a wireless earbud out of your ear, your music, podcast, or video automatically pauses so you don’t miss a second. They’re also IPX-4 rated so sweat, water, and the weather won’t get in the way of your music. Bose QuietComfort Earbuds are compatible with iOS and Android and optimized for Bluetooth 5.1 so you’ll enjoy a strong and reliable wireless signal as long as you’re within 30 feet of your paired device. On a single charge you can expect up to six hours of playback time, and the wireless charging case gives you up to 12 more hours of listening time. For your convenience, the charging case is compatible with any Qi-certified wireless charging mat (not included). Bose QuietComfort Earbuds are available in your choice of Triple Black or Soapstone. Powerful yet compact, you’ll never need to take them off.

Review: Great Value Proposition - Background: I’m an audiophile who is about $4.5k deep in his stereo setup so it is surprising to say this but I really dig these earbuds. Bose usually targets non-audiophiles as their sound signature is a “sculpted” V shape whereas audiophiles look for neutrality or a straight line across the frequency spectrum. The Value Proposition: With that in mind, I think people overestimate the ability of more expensive wireless options like the Sony and Senhesier to deliver that neutrality, regardless of earbud/over-ear design. Most of us use iPhones as music players which don’t accept hi-res wireless codes and are a PIA to use with wired headphones without carrying around a radio shack/dongle city. These Bose look like a comparatively good value: at $200 they undercut the companies mentioned above that have ANC earbuds which are $280 and $250. That it just more than I want to spend on a pair of earbuds, which typically have a short shelf life anyway due to loss, poor build quality, depleting battery life, and rapidly changing tech… Sound: these are a far cry from the first Bose I owned, the OG quiet comforts in middle school with the battery box built into the 3.5mm cable. Dynamic range, note-to-note distinction, and tonal accuracy are improved significantly. They’re much more musical even if detail retrieval isn’t top of the line. But how could it be with standard AAC, SBC codecs? Moreover, even if they did have more advanced codecs like APT-X HD and LDAC, my iPhone is my mobile music player and doesn’t accept them anyway. So really unless you’re on Android, paying for them is a waste of money. You’re not getting the data. Overall; sound signature is controlled, bass heavy, and musical if not neutral. I can live with it for a mobile solution because I do critical listening at home due to the inherent compromises of mobile, which leads to my next point nicely. Active Noise Cancellation: This is where these earbuds shine. Whether you’re living in the city, commuting to work by train, dealing with construction, trying to mow the lawn, whatever: these babies block out the world with the best ANC I’ve heard in an earbud and you are immersed in your music. I accidentally turned on my 1100W stereo in the next room to 50% volume with a butt dial and had no idea it was playing while wearing these. Without this quiet space, you’re wasting your time trying to hear the music in detail. That is why I think these are an incredible value proposition that make sense for a mobile solution. Battery: It’s fine, expected 6 hours without the charging case. That is better than Apple by several hours. I expect to have these for 3 years and then upgrade to something with longer battery life as technology improves and lithium ion depletes with age. Calls: They’re great, I use them for Zoom calls almost every day. If they could connect to multiple devices at once that would be cool, but it is no dealbreaker. Build Quality: Last but not least, audiophiles know that with consistent use wear and tear happens so we prioritize a robust build that will hold up with thousands of hours of listening. These things deliver. I’ll take the bulkier case with a stronger hinge. The slightly bigger earbuds are fine because they’re built solidly. I just can’t get on board with the chintzy Apple/Beats products that look like they’re built from dollar store plastics, like they’re going to fall apart in 6 months. Same thing for cheap alternatives from Anker and similar budget brands (you get what you pay for). Wrap Up: mobile music listening is full of compromises and I think Bose has created an excellent product that delivers where it counts. If you want to do critical listening, do yourself a favor and invest in a pair of open-back headphones and amp at home or better yet a stereo setup you can enjoy with others. What Hi-Fi is a good, accessible place to start for recommendations and Stereofile is more advanced. For everything else, when I’m running around doing errands, on the plane next to a screaming baby, or just trying to cut down the noise of traffic/construction while working, these will deliver nicely. Plan to keep, will update in 1, 6, 12 months ************************************************************************************************************* Updated 10/2022: I’m happy other buyers found this review useful. Forgot to update this sooner, needless to say, still love these babies - the version 1’s - and they would still be the wireless buds I would spend my money on today inclusive of new models.
Review: Love these earbuds - I've only had these earbuds for 4 days, so I don't know much about battery life, but everything else about them has made me happy. I have 3 air conditioners and 2 fans running in my apartment, and the ANC cuts the noise down to a whisper allowing me to only hear the music. And the music sounds crisp and clear with good bass (for ear buds, anyway). The buds rest on the outside of your ear canals instead of jamming down inside, which makes them more comfortable for extended periods of time and the rubber fins hold them in place well. I've owned the Bose Sport earbuds for around a year, and they have the same fins. They've never once fallen out. (I've lost every other earbud that I've used at one time or another.) The QC buds feel just as secure and just as comfortable as the Sport buds. They are fairly large compared to other earbuds, but it's not noticable when I'm using them. Also, the case is pretty big, but I don't carry the case around in my pocket, so that doesn't bother me either. Call quality is pretty good. Everyone says they can hear me well. If you're trying to decide between the Sport or QC earbuds, I think the QC have only slightly better sound when listening to music, but the noise cancelling makes a big difference. You can hear everything better without the background noise, even at lower volume. The call quality, however, is significantly better with the QC. Right now, it's tempting to leave these on from the time I get home from work until I go to bed. They're very comfortable, and the noise isolation is quite peaceful. Hopefully I'll still like them this much in a month or 2. Update for the QC2: I've always been a function over form kind of person, so I didn't really care what the original QC buds looked like (the extra large size that everyone complains about), and maybe I'm showing my age, and I might be the only person on the planet that says this, but I think the first generation QC buds were more comfortable. The QC2s go farther into my ear canal, and my ears get sore a lot more quickly. Yes, they do look a significantly more stylish. I would also trade the new, smaller case for the first gen case that has a row of indicator lights that show how much charge is remaining. The new case has one solitary light that flashes different colors to tell me something 🤷🏼‍♂️ in some sort of indiscernible Morse code. The older, larger buds are also easier for me to handle. The new ones are like slippery, squirrelly jumping beans that never go where I'm trying to put them. But..... These new buds sound really good. I mean, they sound good enough that I'm not even considering returning them. The ANC is unbelievable, and the bass has even more punch than the first gen. They have a nice clean sound, like every other Bose product, and my ears are gradually tolerating them longer each time I use them. I'm keeping the first generation buds for when my ears get sore, or when the battery dies because I couldn't decipher the inscrutable case light, but I'm using the new ones most of the time. For me, the sound quality negates all other quibbles. Still 5⭐s.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***L on November 8, 2021*

No es ninguna noticia que su estuche de carga es INMENSO, y aunque los auriculares también son bastante grandes, sorpresivamente tienen un agarre ESPECTACULAR, puedes girar tu cabeza lo más rápido que puedas y NO SE CAEN, su agarre es notoriamente mejor que la generación anterior, pero quizá sean un poco más cansados de llevar que la generación anterior. El nivel de cancelacion de ruido es ESCANDALOSAMENTE BUENO, tanto para escuchar música como para hacer llamadas, al grado de que puedes hacer con ellos una llamada a un metro de un compresor industrial de 5Hp's y te escuchan sin problema alguno, lo cual era una debilidad de la generación anterior, las llamadas, y ahora es una fortaleza, una de las mayores. Estan diseñados para usarse con ambos auriculares a la vez, y sólo puedes configurar un geest o para o adelantar o regresar la canción, de modo que alguno de esos dos comandos vas a perder con estos auriculares incluso teniendo puestos ambos, cuando por ejemplo, los Huawei Freebuds Pro te permiten adelantar y regresar canciones, subir y bajar volumen, con cualquiera de los dos auriculares. Les falta la función Speak to Talk de Sony, cuyos WF-1000XM4 por el mismo precio, te dan esa muy útil función, y tienen mejores medios, y son más pequeños tanto auriculares como estuche y aún así, dan mejor autonomía de batería. Los de Sony son un producto más redondo, más completo, esos tienen el codec LDAC para mayor fidelidad en la transmisión de la música, sólo hay una cosa en la que los Bose son superiores, la cancelación de ruido, pero en mi caso, que trabajo en un ambiente industrial muy ruidoso, estos QC Earbuds me dan una cancelación de ruido incluso superior a la de los audífonos de diadema QC 35 II y repito, hice una llamada a un metro de un compresor industrial encendido, con mi cel en la bolsa, y me entendieron el 100% de mis palabras (y viseversa) por lo que para alguien que la cancelación de ruido sea lo más importante (como es mi aso) estos Bose QC Earbuds son lo mejor que hay al momento, pero para quienes no les sea la cancelación de ruido lo más importante, los WF-1000XM4 son superiores en todo lo demás, al mismo precio.
