Description

You enjoy spatial audio with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds Black. Thanks to Bose Immersive audio, you experience music like you're in the middle of it. You listen to detailed music with depth. Thanks to noise canceling, you don't hear your surroundings. That way, you can focus on your work and don't hear noise on a busy train. You can adjust the noise canceling yourself in the Bose Music app. There are different modes, such as the Quiet mode. This mode suppresses ambient noise completely. The CustomTune technology takes the shape of your ear canal into account and adjusts the music to it. As a result, you listen to a balanced sound reproduction. Bose includes 3 earbud tips and ear hook sizes, so you always have a set of earbud tips that suits your ears.

Bose Immersive Audio

Bose immersive audio provides spatial audio with your music from every source and streaming service. This technology ensures that the music sounds like you're there. You hear the drums in front of you and the guitars on the left, if the artist intended it like that.

A new way of listening to music

Bose Immersive Audio new experience
Strong noise canceling
Deep and balanced sound
No multipoint pairing

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds have a balanced sound reproduction and strong noise cancellation. Furthermore, Bose Immersive Audio provides a new sound experience and the earbuds fit comfortably in my ears. Unfortunately, the earbuds do not have multipoint pairing, which allows me to connect the earbuds to 2 devices at the same time.

Bose Immersive Audio provides a new sound experience The earbuds have Bose Immersive Audio. This technology provides spatial sound and is the Bose version of spatial audio. This technique creates spatial sound, so that I am in the middle of my music. Bose Immersive Audio also makes sound sources that are not spatial audio sound spacious. Think of videos from YouTube and music from Spotify. This works well for most songs I listen to. The music sounds more immersive, without losing sound quality. I have noticed the latter with other brands that make spatial audio. This technique also puts me right in the middle of the music. This makes me feel like I'm at a festival. Unfortunately, this technique takes a lot of energy. Battery life goes from 6 hours to 4 hours with Bose Immersive Audio.

High wearing comfort Bose supplies 3 sizes of ear wings and 3 sizes of ear tips. I notice that the combination of both ear wings and oval ear tips ensure that the earbuds sit firmly in my ears. The earbuds are also comfortable during long listening sessions. I often notice that in-ear earphones are not suitable for long listening sessions, but I don't have that feeling with these earphones.

High sound quality These earbuds excel in clear and detailed sound. Both low and high tones sound detailed and deep. Think of the bass in rock music and kicks in dance music. This ensures that I immerse myself in the music with every type of music.

Strong noise canceling The noise cancellation is balanced. When I turn on noise canceling, I don't hear anything from my surroundings. Not even when the volume is low. This way I get completely absorbed in my music. If I turn off the noise canceling, I can hear both my surroundings and the music clearly. This ensures a balanced noise canceling reproduction.

No multipoint pairing The only thing I miss with the earbuds is the multipoint pairing function. I like this personally because I use this function a lot for multitasking with other earbuds.

Review is 7,2 out of 10.

Great sound quality, but in silent mode it crackles

Great sound
Immersive audio
Noise canceling very good
Buzzing/cracking sound in left earpiece

I have very sensitive hearing, so I noticed a very soft crackling/buzzing sound when I only had the noise canceling turned on on the left earpiece. Product returned twice, but unfortunately the problem still persists. A shame because the sound quality is fantastic. I find it disturbing because I also regularly use the earphones in silent mode for work, so I have now definitely returned them. Seems to be a known problem, on the Bose website itself it even says that it is 'normal', but I personally believe that with such an expensive product you can expect that no creaking noises will be heard. Service from coolblue was very good.

ANC king!

Fits excellently
Best noise cancellation possible for in-ears
Good sound quality
No multipoint

The best noise canceling you can get in earbuds. Even better than a lot of the over-ears I've owned. But for this price, no wireless charging and no multipoint connection is difficult to justify.
