Not only is the sound quality crisp and the highs and lows are pronounced but the noise cancellation is unreal and feels like you've entered outer space. Best set of expensive headphones purchased yet. I'll be looking to get the wireless model next

"I purchased a pair of these headphones from Oxford Street London as an upgrade from the previous bulkier version. My other pair of Bose headphones were falling apart and the new model had just come out and so I went out and purchased it. BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE.

Bose Quiet Comfort 25 gives amazing comfort and superb active noise cancellation but fails to provide that $300 sound performance. Not worth buying.

Lot of comfort Terrifying noise cancellation Very light weight

Mediocre sound quality Sound quality is rock bottom when noise cancellation is off Feels very cheap physically

Upgraded from the QC15 about two (2) years back, mainly because you could turn the noise cancellation on/off. The sound quality wasn't all that much better, and at times I've also felt as if the QC15 was slightly better.

Great Noise Cancellation; comfortable

Not Durable; flimsy; noise leak

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...

Higher-grade build than previous Bose sets; Excellent noise cancellation; Pleasant; big sound

Better sound quality available at the price; Easy to leave on accidentally

-Works without a battery; Great sound quality; Great build quality; Great fit and comfortable to wear; Awesome noise cancellation

-Only one audio cord included; the QC15's included two; 1 for cell phone use and 1 for just audio -No 1/4in adapter

If you're a frequent flyer then you've probably already heard about the Bose QuietComfort 25 headphones, otherwise known as the QC25. They're renowned for being lightweight, comfy for long periods of wear and offer killer noise-cancellation that can mute the hum of a Boeing's jet engines.

Lightweight construction; comfortable fit for long periods of wear; outstanding noise-cancellation (ideal for frequent long-haul flyers); carry case included (with double 3.5mm aeroplane jack

Standard AAA battery (not rechargeable on-board battery); some noise-cancellation issues (doesn't seem to like trains much); sound quality poor when battery depletes

I just tested this, together with 7 other kids. Must say directly, this is a fantastic handset! The only drawback is the cord. Actually. No, one more thing ... the sound without noise reduction is not funny ... murky and flat ... so it must be activated. Incidentally, the cruel!

Ever since Dr. Amar Bose had the idea for noise canceling headphones in 1978, the company has done research on techniques to make it possible.

Very comfortable and convenient to carry with you wherever you go

The remote control only works with Apple products

Active noise cancelling; Lightweight; Comfortable; Nice carry case

Interchangeable - not rechargeable - battery
