Description
Features
Acoustic Noise Cancelling technology.
Powerful microphones in the wireless earbuds monitor environmental sounds and produce the opposite signal, cancelling out unwanted noise. Feel free to pursue your passions uninterrupted with the world-class noise cancelling technology.
High-fidelity experience.
Music. Videos. Podcasts. It’s not just what you listen to. It’s who you are. Volume-optimized Active EQ technology boosts highs and lows for consistent balance with bold sound and rich bass no matter how loud or soft you play whatever you’re into.
From Quiet to Aware with a double tap.
With a double tap of the left earbud, choose Quiet Mode for full noise cancelling or Aware Mode with ActiveSense technology to hear your music and surroundings at the same time, while the sounds around you are brought down to a more comfortable level.
Truly wireless earbuds, reliable connectivity.
Think about which song to play next, not your wireless connection. Bluetooth earbuds connect when removed from the case and keep track of the last seven devices you’ve paired. Bluetooth 5.1 gives you a strong connection to your device within 30 feet.
Up to 6 hours of battery life.
Listen for up to six hours on a full charge. Out of power? A quick, 15-minute charge will give you up to 2 hours of play time. When you’re done, place the earphones in the case for an additional two full charges. When it’s time, recharge the case via the included USB-C.
Simple touch controls.
All it takes is swipes and taps to change the volume, flip between noise cancelling and Aware Mode, and answer calls. When you’re done listening, just pop them out and Bose QuietComfort Earbuds will pause your music automatically.
Clear calls. Wherever you take them.
Tiny mics in these in-ear headphones work together to focus on your voice and filter out most of the noise around you. So, your calls always sound clear — whether you’re at home or on the go.
Secure & comfortable fit.
Feel great every time you listen to Bose QuietComfort Earbuds thanks to their soft silicone StayHear Max tips. They’re designed to provide comfort, stability and passive noise-blocking performance.
Get off to a great start with the Bose Music app.
Learn how to access noise cancellation settings, manage Bluetooth connections and more with the guided set-up. The app also keeps your wireless noise cancelling earbuds’ software up to date — unlocking future features.
Browse music without touching your phone.
Spotify Tap playback* makes it quick and easy to access Spotify. Simply tap and hold the left earbud to get back to your last listening session or a new playlist. Set your shortcut to “Spotify” in the Bose Music app to enable this feature.

Flawed but Fantastic Sound
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am searching for the perfect all-purpose earbuds but I don't think they exist. I have bought and used 15+ different TWS earbuds from many brands. Bose has a fantastic pair of earbuds here for many occasions. If you just want to zone out on your music or a movie you won't find a better pair of earbuds. If you are looking for versatility and seamlessness you may want to keep looking. Sound: As I mentioned, there may not be a better set of buds. This is the richest sound I have found in an earbud. It beats out any I have tried and that list includes Airpods Pro, Airpods, Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Buds +, Galaxy Buds, Reduxbuds, MPOW, Betone, JLab and more. These Bose QC have great bass and clear highs. It is easy to get absorbed into my music! Connection: So they paired easily to my phones, I use a Galaxy S21 Ultra for my personal phone and an iPhone 8 for work. The Bose Music app installed on both phones and made good connection to the buds. Switching between devices however, is a bit cumbersome. You can't just go to the bluetooth settings on the device and tap to connect. You first need to disconnect from the device you last had connected then move forward with your connection to your desired device. This is annoying for me because I switch back and forth frequently. Most other earbuds I've used you can just tap on it in bluetooth settings and it will automatically disconnect from one and connect to the other. Convenience: These are not the most convenient form factor out there. The case is huge. It is easily 2-3 times the size of Airpods or Galaxy Buds. It really isn't pocketable. Another deal-breaker for me is that you cannot use either earbud independently. If you want to use only one bud you have to use the right bud. You can leave the case open (and stay within range of it) and use only the left earbud but there are no mics in the left earbud!? I like to switch back and forth between ears (for phone calls at work) due to ear fatigue but you can't with these. Another issue with convenience is one I have only noticed with my iPhone, which means it might be an iOS issue, but when I have a call coming in I have to tap on the "speaker" button and choose Bose in order to talk through the earbuds. If my phone is in my pocket it really defeats the main purpose of hands-free technology. Comfort: They are pretty comfortable to wear. The silicone is soft and comfortable. I like the ear hooks for stability in the ear. ANC/Transparency Mode: The ANC on the Bose QC is off the charts good. Everything gets very quiet with no hum. It is, by far, the best ANC I have found in an earbud. Transparency mode is very good. Airpods Pro does transparency mode a bit better, it just feels a little more natural with the Airpods Pro. The Bose QC does a better job of making the ambient noise sound more natural than any of the Galaxy Buds, including the new Buds Pro. Price: The price of these $279 is really what is going to return these. I can't justify nearly $300 for these and a good set that meets my needs for phone calls and device switching. I'd love to keep them for travel or just listening to music. The ANC is likely spectacular for an airplane. I just need the versatility.

Great for movement!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These in-ear headphones are super comfortable and the charge lasts forever! The best feature is being able to switch from fully noise cancelling to being able to be more aware if I need to listen out for anything. The fit is pretty good and I love that I can throw them on a mag charger and save a cable from being used. They do work well while exercising! I haven’t had one fall out yet! And I appreciate how compact the case is and how pretty and neutral this color is!

JUST AMAZING
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to take a moment to share my positive experience with the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds. From the moment I first tried them on, I was impressed by the comfort and fit. The earbuds stayed securely in place, even during my most intense workouts. The sound quality is truly exceptional, with rich bass and crystal-clear highs. I also appreciate the noise cancellation feature, which allows me to fully immerse myself in my favorite music or podcasts. In addition to the impressive performance, the earbuds are also incredibly user-friendly. The touch controls make it easy to adjust the volume, skip tracks, and answer calls without having to reach for my phone. The battery life is impressive as well, providing hours of uninterrupted listening pleasure. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds. They have exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort, sound quality, and functionality. I would highly recommend them to anyone in search of a premium wireless earbud experience.

Bose ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these ear buds!! They mute out sound so well!! They fit in my ear perfectly. I can’t believe how amazing they are. I use them for watching videos while my husband sleeps and to drown out noise and when they are in I literally can’t hear him if he says something. One down side is if you lay on your side with them in they are very uncomfortable. I would have loved to have gotten ones for sleeping which is what I was originally looking for. I’m still not disappointed but still keeping a look out. If your looking for something that fits perfectly in your ear and doesn’t feel like it will fall out if you get up and move around. These are them! If your looking to drown out your matés snoring these are them! Just awesome buds and they hold a charge for a long time.

Bose ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been a loyal user of Bose earphones for many years, starting with the SoundSport in orange. They were incredible—comfortable, secure, and never slipped out of my ears, even during intense activities. After years of dependable use, the batteries naturally started to lose their charge, so I decided it was time to upgrade. These new earbuds offer exceptional sound quality and noise cancellation—truly top-notch. However, I do have a major issue with the rubber pieces designed to secure the earbuds in your ears. They frequently slip off, especially during workouts, and it’s incredibly frustrating to have to constantly readjust them. To make matters worse, if you lose the size that fits your ears, replacing them is expensive. While the sound quality is fantastic, the functionality falls short, particularly for gym use. If Bose can address the fit and durability of the ear tips, these would be perfect.

Great sound but connectivity could be better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound = 5, Noise canceling = 4, Fit = 4, Batt Life = 5. I pair these with my Samsung Galaxy Note 9. I would give these a 5 overall but every time you open the Bose Music app (not start it, just open it), it needs to reconnect to the earbuds. Why? Once I start the app, why can't it stay connected? And, then about 1 out of every 10 times it says "device not found" when they are within inches of each other. Also, even with earbuds connected, the NC doesn't always set properly and you occasionally need to go into the app and lower the NC and raise it again for the NC to take effect. Why? For nearly $300 they should remain connected as long as you're using them in proximity to your phone and your Bose Music app is active in the background. Not only that, all the controls should work flawlessly.

Good not perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not going to cut corner with this one. I own the AirPods Pro, sennheiser momentum 2, JABRA Elite 75T, Samsung galaxy buds+, jaybird vista. So believe me i know my way around wireless earbuds. These. Bose goes neck to neck in noise canceling with the sennheiser, i will go as far as saying even a little better in some situations. The only problem is their size, a little too big compare to all the ones i listed above. The fit is perfect, no stress on your ears,i was able to wear them for a full battery cycle which tap out at about 5Hrs & 20min with noise canceling on. Case is too big to carry in your pocket.Now the sound: sound is subjective but for my taste they’re alright with good highs and mids but they could use more bass and they don’t get as loud as the sennheiser ( which are my num 1) and or the Jabra’s. Overall they are a pretty good pair of earbuds for casual or sport use. It would’ve been perfect if they were priced lower at around $250. If you are a Bose lover you will find that historical balanced sound carried on these folks. The lack of EQ and buttons customization is another set back compare to the sennheiser. I will still recommend them as they’re built well.

Worth the money!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I rarely do reviews, maybe 4 or 5 in my life. I own the Beats studio 2.0, the Bose Q25 and Q35 because I like over ear to drown out the noise. These earbuds are pretty amazing. You can store 3 diff NC settings and double tap the left bud to toggle between your three settings. You can double tap the right bud to pause the audio or video. They have 3 different ear size adapters and are very comfortable. The smart design case is a battery. Every time you put the buds away, they charge, so it’s eeems like the never die. The case can be put on my anker charging pad and it charges the case and the buds. I could not be happier and I am a real review.

Q: QuestionIs there something like a "Locate My Earbuds" feature? Like a GPS track my device app?
Asked by QuantumPixie.
- A:Answer The QuietComfort Earbuds do not have a Find My Buds feature.
Answered by Bose Support
Q: QuestionCan you access all features without using the without the Bose Music app that accesses data collection and account information like in the 700's? Not interested to share use information with Bose.
Asked by visitor18.
This question was asked about the related product: Bose - QuietComfort Earbuds True Wireless Noise Cancelling In-Ear Earbuds - Soapstone
- A:Answer After calling Bose support the answer is NO. You must sacrifice your privacy and agree to data collection by Bose in order to use all of the settings, updates as no features. You can do a simple pairing via Bluetooth, however this will limit the settings and features. There are many excellent alternatives that are not this intrusive. Therefore I do not recommend this product. I will be returning mine
