Great review, appreciate how quick you got these comparison out.

[@akspov]

This was such a good detailed and helpful review! I was on Amazon trying to figure out which Bose headphones to buy and your review popped up. Glad to have found your channel and full review on KZbin!

[@tulioalexbo5312]

Really well done video. I haven't fallen in love with the ultra over ears yet. The in ears QC Ultra's are spectacular as are the the OG QC over ears. Thanks for the quick, accurate, concise video.

[@adamhenderson8601]

This is the best video on these headphones that i’ve found. I’ve been looking at these since my Bose 700’s died and other videos for much larger channels have been useless! Cheers from the UK! 🇬🇧

[@DoughnutswithSprinkles-wq4vo]

Great video man, thanks. Appreciate the high production value too.

[@JoeHeller]

I enjoyed your video. I'd love for you to add an indoor mic test. Both of these Bose mics sound distorted while dropping segments of speech outside. I'm curious what an indoor test will reveal (ie. office, living room, coffee shop)

[@mikefinnie2490]

This review rocks! By far the best video for comparison!!!!! No other review, even from the top magazines does it so well. I bought both of these, trying to decide which is better for ANR; no one else even comes close to showing the real difference. The other issues are simply background noise for someone like me who is most interested in effective ANR. Thanks from Cincinnati.

[@CaptainRon1913]

Very good comparison. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you

Great video! Do the QC Ultras still not give you the ability to turn off both ANC and transparency? Is it still just one or the other?

[@KarolyKrausz]

Try the transparency mode of the new SONOS ACE. You'll like it, however the static noise in the right ear cup during calls is really not nice.

[@benmek]

Without taking the ActiveSense into account, do you think the sound of the Aware mode on both are comparable or is one noticeably better?

[@alexterzis612]

Excellent comparison!

[@j0562]

One thing I’m always invested in when considering new headphones, is sound leakage, I really don’t like people hearing what I’m listening to, how would you say they compare in that regard?

[@jeffreyfalcon243]

In my personal experience, the Ultra’s were slightly better in controlling leakage. Unless you’re blasting music nobody will notice, especially outdoors.

[@hskbrowneyes]

cupid by fifty fifty? 😂 jokes aside i also do consider this important

[@pragatikale7822]

Thank you for your review, really detailed well filmed and your voice is soothing. Why don't they continue with deep colours though? Black, white and cream? Ugh, gimme the green or the dark blue I have now. Not everyone enjoys boring black and how clean is your life that white or cream is practical?

You can listen to the ultra even when they’re dead? I seen another review say you can’t

Is there a quality increase when connected via wire? I understand lossless is not achievable through Wireless.

great video - when on sale at $249 or less, the Bose QuietComfort is a steal versus the Ultra

Can you review the brand new B&W Px7 S2e

[@gregfowler957]

Would you say these are better than sennheiser momentum 4 undecided

[@John-S-01]

is the Bose QC ultra noice cancellation much better than the Quiet confort ? I REALLY CARE NOICE CANCELLATION, do you think the difference is so big that I have to buy the ultra over the normal quiet confort ? considering that I also like the other ultra extra features over the qc but not so much

[@Grizubom]

I am always missing qc35, because best microphone has on it.. I used qc45 and ultra

[@sc2inca]

Which one is more comfortable to wear?

[@jamesge8087]

have you tried playing music on the Ultra when they're drained ? according to the user manual, the don't play unless plugged in or charged via the 3.5mm

[@jorreca]

After much research and try on's, I've decided to go with the over-all winner for me which is the Bose QC45's. The over-ear comfort and it's lightweight feature really sold me. I wear glasses pretty much 24/7 and I also get migraines frequently so comfort was my top priority, but also as someone who just wants to listen and immerse herself in her audiobooks and music in peace... the specifics of the bass and etc. wasn't that deep for me and with that I really can't complain since I'm upgrading from the SONY WH-CH500 to the QC45's so lol in comparison it performs AMAZING and are more than just fine to me. It also doesn't hurt that while yes it's still very much on the pricey side, the price I would say is still fair to me since I got it on sale.

[@Johnmims65]

Why not the newer qc’s they have same build

[@Navarrobassist]

How about the color? How black is the ultra? Is it just a regular black or grayish lighter black or it just the lights?

[@bradle4162]

Something I'm really upset by with the Ultra is the lack of physical turn on/off toggle found on the Quietcomfort. It's a pet peeve to not have a visual distinction between a headphone that's on or off. And I cannot stand holding down the power button for three seconds. It drives me nuts because they make headphones feel cheap to me.

[@djr3485]

Thanks for getting out a review so quickly. What's the color at 1:25? Bose only seem to be offering them in black or white smoke on their website.

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

It's the black one

[@icntolax]

영상 감사합니다🙏(thank you)

[@noahbuchmeier]

If it was my money then I would probably prefer the ultras for the build quality and extra features

[@Spoggi99YT]

Got myself the NC700 headphones a few years ago. My only problem with them is the narrow headband which tends to become uncomfortable after a while. I am still unsure whether upgrading to either the QC Ultra or QC45 is worth it....

[@justvoorfun]

get wicked cussion earpads they make it bigger.

[@TheOvenCook]

Don't do qc45 - it doesn't have these wind features. The comparison here is the new Quiet Comfort (no numbers)

[@Spoggi99YT]

@@TheOvenCook Thank you very much for the heads-up! I bought the QC45 and was very disappointed with the sound, although I loved the comfort and fit. I returned them and got the QC Ultras for $100 off during Black Friday. The Ultras are absolutely fantastic as they offer the same comfort as the QC45s while maintaining or even improving on the great sound and NC of the NC700s.

[@lorenzohardy5212]

Ultras will be here today. Thank you for this. NC700s. Welp.

[@jnkization]

Great video. It would be great to have the direct comparison of the two ANC sound levels, without the other modes in between. I downloaded your video and cut it together so I could really compare.

[@jnkization]

Bose ahead... @@alooloolooloo

[@Julianvanderheijden]

This is a great video

[@briankrasne3518]

I prefer the basics button controls on the QC45 more. I also got my qc45s brand new on sale for 200 during the super bowl so I definitely won't be upgrading anytime soon. The 24 hour playback time is basically the same on both headphones. If they upgraded it to 38 to 40 hours on a single charge, I'd definitely upgrade but the difference is Soo minor that I'm happy with my qc45s for the money I payed plus I don't value these headphones at 300 plus dollars for what you get. I'd say they are worth 250 tops.

[@justletmecommentprz]

[@Accountabilio]

Bro, I was already struggling to decide between the QC45 and the new QC’s. Then I decided to go for the new QC’s, but I couldn’t decide on the color. Now that I finally decided to get the new QC in black, I saw your video and can’t decide between the Ultras or just the QC.😢😂

[@tdog9683]

The 45 and new QC are basically the same thing

[@Johnmims65]

Except the qc’s have a new green color

[@joyk1672]

Thanks for the review - microphone quality sure still is terrible with Bose across the board - just listen to the microphone captures - why is it that bad? (I initially thought my QC45 were defective - but seems like no matter how many mics they add it still sounds bad..)

[@ahmedhamdan2009]

I agree. The mic on the QC ultra is horrendous. For a premium wireless headphones, you'll at least expect crystal clear calls. It's embarrassing that there is way cheaper headphones with way better call quality than the expensive QC ultra.

[@alexander_hro]

Thanks for the review. Which headphones would you recommend if sound is a priority? Sennheiser Momentum 4 or Bose Ultra?

[@lammiwinks3775]

Also keen to know this.

[@turilli4]

If I may: I'd steer away from the Momentum 4. I came to this video bc I'm returning the Momentum and I'm trying to decide if the QC Ultra is worth the premium. Audio quality on the Sennheiser is really good, ANC is fairly good... but it's a buggy mess. I've used it for two weeks: it randomly turns features on by itself, it sets ANC levels differently per cup, it resumes playback on its own. And personally I find it uncomfortable: I have a large head, clamping force is strong, and there's no amount of adjusting it that makes it really comfortable. I had the same issue with the Sony XM4. It's a pitty, the Momentum 4 is beautiful, I love the sound quality, aptx adaptive is a really nice to have... but there's just too many caveats for the price. Hopefully that helps you a bit! Cheers!

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

Unfortunately I don't own the momentum 4, so I can't say.

[@karolykrausz5534]

Focal Bathys :-). I know it's a totally different price range but it blows both, Sennheiser and Bose, out of the water.

[@CEONTHEMAKING]

I wouldn't say way better. The ultra do have more bass, though. Which I did say in this video.

[@borasumer]

Immersive audio is worth buying the ultra over any headphones, period. That thing has changed the way I look into headphones forever. I don't listen to music in another mode anymore. Immersive audio is like listening live music to me. Bose nailed it imo.

absolutely mind blowing for me that after 10 years they are still using that same horrific robotic voice in their menus.
