Bose QuietComfort 45 Noise-Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones (Triple Black) - BRAND NEW review
With their QuietComfort 45, Bose are committed to a consistent product: these new over-ears come with active noise cancelling (ANC, noise suppression), long battery life and great sound. Compared to the competition, however, they lack some important features. Will it be enough?
Bose QuietComfort 45 Noise-Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones (Triple Black) - BRAND NEW review
I may be a little bit unusual in having both these and the Sony XM4s, but to me these feel a bit lacking in terms of sound quality - nothing feels quite as 'alive' and punchy as it does with the XM4s. On the other hand, the sound isn't bad, and the noise cancelling is excellent.
Bose QuietComfort 45 review
While the QuietComfort 45 are good in many ways, particularly comfort and noise cancelling performance, they are missing a lot of features we'd expect from a pair of flagship headphones.- Light and comfortable
- Effective noise cancelling
- Solid battery life
- No ANC adjustment
- Lacking smart features
- Plasticky build

The Bose QuietComfort 45 are great for commute and travel. They have a very comfortable fit, and their over 21-hour battery life should easily last you through long days on the go.- Excellent noise isolation performance., Very comfortable., Over 21 hours of continuous playback time., Good build quality.
- Bulky and can fall off your head with more intense movement.

Bose QuietComfort 45 Noise-Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones (Triple Black) - BRAND NEW review
QuietComfort 45 is essentially a QC35 II with ambient sound - and USB-C.- Among the most comfortable headphones we know of, Good noise reduction and ambient sound, Neutral sound balance.
- The sound is perceived as slim, noise reduction has a bit of a hiss and can also not be turned off without simultaneously activating ambient sound, Not waterproof.

Love these headphones. Every feature brilliant. I recharge for a few minutes (when I'm in the middle of a podcast and just have to listen to the end) and it's almost 100% charged. Amazing. Sound is clear and rousing.
