Preordered and received them sooner than expected. These ear buds are truly amazing, but can’t say they are perfect. Pros: Amazing sound quality Outstanding noise cancelling Comfortable for all day wear Long battery life Cons: Only one in my opinion. When using them on phone calls, people on the receiving end of my call can hear all of my background noise, and it’s so loud that they can’t stay on the call for too long. Is their a software patch for this issue. All in all they are great ear buds for listening to music, podcasts but not so good with phone calls.

Top quality product but requires newish Android or Apple phone to set up features. Comforrtable to wear and faultless 5G. Great for use on the move. Depeding on source you may find the sound volume not quite loud enough but audio quality is very good if you like Bose sound. Overall I rate my QC35II slightly better for noise cancelling but they are over ear and more bulky headphones. However, for great noisefree sound on the move I can thoroughly recommend the Bose QC 700 earbuds.

It took Bose quite a while to get them into stores, but the new $279 (£250, AU$400) noise-canceling QuietComfort Earbuds are finally here. In many ways, they are excellent true wireless earbuds, particularly when it comes to their sound and noise canceling, which is arguably the best out there right now in a set of earbuds.

They sound great and have arguably the best noise canceling for true wireless, but they aren't as discrete or comfortable as the AirPods Pro -- or as good for calls.

Best-in-class noise canceling with transparency mode; Top-notch sound; Comfortable, secure fit; Rock-solid wireless connection; Decent battery life for noise-canceling earbuds (up to 6 hours); Wireless charging (and USB-C); Decent voice calling with sidetone "self voice" feature; IPX4 splash-resistant;

Buds are fairly large (they stick out of your ears); Noise reduction for calls could be better; Pretty pricey;

Bose’s original true wireless earbuds, the SoundSport Free, sounded fantastic but were foiled by connectivity problems and audio / video sync issues that the company never fully resolved. They also lacked active noise cancellation, which is the feature that Bose built its entire brand around.

Best noise cancellation yet among true wireless earbuds; Excellent sound quality; Comfortable; secure fit

Large carrying case; No way to go back to the last track with the earbuds; Can only pair to one device at a time

With their QuietComfort Earbuds, Bose are seeking to demonstrate that even in the cable-free class, True Wireless in-ears are extremely effective at reducing noise and delivering high-quality sound. We test whether they actually manage it.

It’s Bose’s second attempt at a set of true wireless headphones, and the QuietComfort Earbuds are leaps and bounds better than the older SoundSport Free. Not only is the design a lot better, the noise cancellation is exemplary. Sound quality is also really very good – albeit a touch less bassy as compared to Sony – with superb clarity. They’re incredibly comfortable and well balanced too, despite their bulky form factor.
