My only gripe is the battery compartment....hard to open/ close the battery contact (spring) can be fragile and misaligned to conact the battery properly. Bose can do better!

Sound quality/ active noise cancel/ super comfort fit for extended periods

the mini jack that attaches to headphone can be fickle....slight movement can cause sound to disconnect/ reconnect with just slight movement. Battery compartment door is flimsy/ hard to open/ close battery contact (spring) can misalign

With my new job I am traveling close to 70% of the time. I wanted a product that could help me enjoy music without maxing the volume out to overcome the ambient noise on an airplane. The QC 25's did not fail to impress.

Gave this to bf as a Valentine's+Birthday present, he loves it. The sound is great! The headphones feel slightly snug when music is not on, but once the music comes on, the headphone works perfect. It will be great for traveling. It was rated the best noise cancellation headphones by CNET.

I work in IT as a primary source of income and can spend a lot of time in the data center. I have a very nice set of Peltor Optime 105 ear muffs and it was I that brought them into the work place originally because I use them at home when running the power equipment – I rate these at 5 stars as...

Great sound, noise canceling good, but my ears got hot and sweaty in them. I bought a pair of $40 earbuds from Amazon that sounds just as good. I guess I'm disappointed because I love Bose quality and sound. I returned these because I didn't believe they were worth $350.

It delivers.

Unbeatable noise cancelling

The awesome: very good noise cancelling. Possibly the best there is. 5 stars The not so good: I've listened to the phones often and it strikes me that every time straight from the first few notes I know there's something not right.

The Bose QuietComfort 25 are the best headphones I've ever used. I say that as someone who strives for maximum performance per dollar when purchasing headphones. I say that as someone who believes that, in most circumstances, you can find a cheaper product that performs as well, if not better, than...

The Bose QuietComfort 25 are active noise-cancellation headphones. Not only are they superb at eliminating the low-register noise that is the bedrock of any city soundscape, but they also cut out the frequencies that tend to trample all over your music, often resulting in you having to turn up the...
