Description
About this item WORLD-CLASS NOISE CANCELLATION: The best noise cancellation of any Bose wireless earbuds is now even better than before. ActiveSense technology smooths spikes in surrounding sound, so even in Aware Mode distractions won’t get in the way. CUSTOMTUNE TECHNOLOGY: CustomTune technology analyses your ears and adapts your in-ear headphones to their shape. The result? World-class noise cancellation and custom sound for bigger chills every time you press play. NOISE CONTROL: Quickly adjust the level of noise cancellation without using Modes, including turning it off completely to conserve battery. IMMERSIVE AUDIO: Bose Immersive Audio spatialises what you’re hearing by taking it out of your head and placing it beyond your Bluetooth earbuds. It’s like listening from the acoustic sweet spot, where songs sound like the artist intended. SECURE FIT AND STABILITY: Choose from nine combos of eartips and stability bands to find the snuggest fit for comfortable earbuds. The soft, umbrella-shaped tips seal the opening of your ear to reduce outside noises while stability bands hug them. CLEAR PHONE CALLS: Be heard loud and clear with Bose's best call quality. SpeechClarity technology uses noise-rejecting mics to filter out background noise and wind and focus on your voice. Take calls with both or a single earbud, whatever works for you. WIRELESS CHARGING CASE: Play for up to 6 hours in Quiet or Aware Mode (up to 4 hours with Immersive Audio).* The case holds up to three full charges,** and recharging it is easier than ever with new wireless charging capabilities or with USB-C BLUETOOTH MULTIPOINT CONNECTIVITY: Bluetooth multipoint offers seamless, uninterrupted listening. Switch between your phone, your laptop, and other devices with ease – all without missing a moment. IN-EAR CINEMA SOUND: Make all your video content come to life in a whole new way with Cinema Mode. This new feature spatializes your audio while balancing background sounds and sound effects, giving you a theater-like experience in your earbuds.

C'est du Bose, donc proche de la perfection
On pourrait dire que mon opinion est un peu biaisée : Ça fait des années que j'utilise Bose, des écouteurs à la barre de son pour mon téléviseur ! Ce qui est appréciable avec cette marque, c'est qu'ils ne s'endorment pas sur leurs lauriers. Ils continuent de s'améliorer, de génération en génération. Et c'est le cas avec ces écouteurs intra-auriculaires QuietComfort Ultra 2ème génération. D'accord, ce ne sont pas les écouteurs les plus discrets quand vous les portez. De même, le boîtier chargeur reste un peu gros, bien que l'autonomie des écouteurs soient un peu inférieure à ce que propose la concurrence à ce niveau de prix et en dessous. (Ça, c'était pour le négatif !) Pour le reste, c'est un sans faute. Tout d'abord là où Bose dépasse de la tête et des épaules la compétition : La fonction de réduction de bruit. J'ai essayé ces dernières semaines plusieurs concurrents, comme le Sony WH-1000XM5 ou le très décevant Sennheiser True Wireless 4. Si le Sony n'est pas loin, ni l'un ni l'autre n'est au niveau de Bose. Aussi surprenant que ça puisse paraître, seul le bien moins cher Soundcore Liberty 4 NC s'en approche sans le rattrapper. Si vous avez choisi les embouts qui correspondent exactement à votre conduit auditif (une option dans l'application Bose - pour iOS et Android - vous permet de vérifier si vous portez correctement vos écouteurs avec les embouts qui vont bien), lorsque vous sélectionnez l'option de réduction de bruit, quel que soit l'environnement dans lequel vous êtes, vous serez assuré(e) qu'au moins 90 à 95% des sons extérieurs seront coupés. Je l'ai testé près d'un chantier de construction d'immeuble, dans le bus, en marchant dans une rue très animée, le résultat est constant - les sons autour de vous sont à peine perceptibles. Vous avez également une option appelée 'Aware' qui sera très utile pour bien écouter votre musique préférée ou vos podcasts tout en entendant les sons ambiants sans que ça soit gênant. C'est pratique pour entendre la voiture qui arrive derrière vous ! Et enfin vous avez l'option de transparence qui vous permet de toujours entendre la musique sans qu'aucun filtre ne vous coupe de votre environnement. Depuis l'application, vous pouvez même créer votre propre mode de réduction de bruit, en plus de ceux proposés par défaut par Bose. Pratique. Vous pouvez passer d'un mode à l'autre soit depuis l'application Bose, soit grâce aux fonctions tactiles des écouteurs - que vous pouvez paramétrer selon vos préférences depuis l'application. À ce propos, quel que soit l'environnement sonore, les appels téléphoniques sont eux aussi de qualité (une grande différence avec la génération précédente), même en cas de grand vent - pour ça, vous devrez sélectionner une option 'Vent' dans l'application pour que les oreillettes gèrent correctement le bruit du vent. Côté son, c'est aussi proche de la perfection : Je suis loin d'avoir l'oreille absolue, mais en tant qu'auditeur de base j'ai trouvé la qualité audio exceptionnelle avec beaucoup de subtilité et un bel équilibre entre des aigus clairs et des basses profondément résonnantes. J'ai pu lire ici ou là que certains concurrents de Bose (en particulier Technics pour ne pas les nommer) proposent un son plus riche et plus raffinés. C'est possible. Pour ma part, lorsque j'écoute des podcasts, les voix sont cristallines et bien compréhensibles. Quand j'écoute du jazz, j'entends la richesse et la subtilité de jeu de chaque instrument. Quand j'écoute du classique, la puissance de l'orchestre, le détail du piano ou du violon solo se détache bien. Vous êtes dans la salle de concert, à la meilleure place. Bref, on a un son riche et immersif. Enfin, ces écouteurs ne s'appellent pas 'Comfort' pour rien ! Avec seulement 7,7 grammes par oreillette, vous ne sentez pas grand chose quand vous les portez, même si vous les gardez plusieurs heures (en tenant compte que l'autonomie est d'en moyenne de 5 heures 'seulement'). Jamais elles ne deviennent inconfortables, et quels que soient vos mouvements, elles tiennent bien en place. De plus grâce au standard IPX4, vos oreillettes ne risquent rien même si vous les portez un jour de grande pluie. À tout ça, vous pouvez ajouter que vous avez une autonomie moyenne cumulée de près de 24 heures avec l'étui de rangement qui se charge avec un câble USB-C (fourni), ou en sans fil (technologie Qi). Cerise sur le gâteau : ces oreillettes Bose sont 'Bluetooth Multipoint', ce qui veut dire que vous pouvez les connecter à plusieurs appareils en même temps. Je crois n'avoir rien oublié, tout en réalisant qu'il y a encore d'autres fonctionnalités dont je n'ai pas parlé. à vous de les découvrir ! 😉 Tout ça pour dire que ces oreillettes intra-auriculaires Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2ème génération sont certes chères, mais elles valent le prix demandé. Après en avoir essayé plusieurs dans le haut de gamme, ce sont les seules et uniques que je recommande. C'est simple, au moment d'écrire ces lignes, les oreillettes Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2ème génération sont sans aucun doute les meilleures du marché.

BEST EARBUDS I HAVE EVER OWNED NO LIE!
Best ear buds I have ever owned!!! I am an audiophile and am VERY PICKY when it comes to my audio! I listen to audio ALL DAY LONG! I love BASS!! I was worried when I got these that 1. I wouldn’t get enough Bass and that 2. I wouldn’t be able to get enough volume out of these ear buds seeing that my previous ear buds wouldn’t go high enough even when they were at Max volume! So I gave these a try. I am extremely happy to report that 1. These have wonderful bass!! Which you are able to adjust using the Bose app which is pretty easy to use. Just install after you link the ear buds to your phone or computer/laptop/tablet then install the app and adjust the bass in the EQ! EZ PZ! 2.these have more than enough volume! I am able to go to about 75% volume and leave it there depending on the app I am using and hear just fine and that is using only one earbud. I use one earbud at a time so that I am able to extend the length of time that I am able to use the earbuds throughout the day as I stay up ALL day and night but when I do use both they stay at about the same volume as well. The battery life is GREAT!!! They last well throughout the day and night and I get about 3 charges from the case before I need to recharge the case. That is a charge of the right earbud the Left earbud and another full charge of the right ear bud and a partial charge of the Left ear bud before I have to recharge the case. You are able to charge the case by USB-C cable or by wireless charger. When I first started wearing these earbuds they gave me some discomfort but I was able to adapt to that and now I am fine with them and have no discomfort and they feel GREAT!! They fit great in my ears and don’t move at ALL! They are snug and at times I forget that I have them in at all lol! The case is nice and light. It’s tiny enough that it fits in my pocket and I know where it is at all times lol it has a light on the front so that when I am charging the earbuds the light radiates and when the charging case is done charging the light goes out. These are things the seller does not tell you!! When you are using the earbuds you will know the earbuds are about to go out of battery because a nice lady will come into your ear and tell you that the battery is low two times and then u will get about 20-30 more minutes of power before they die so either change the earbud if u are using only one or charge them if u are using both! They fit VERY snug in the case sometimes so snug you can’t get them out lol so no worries about them falling out of the case!! When u put them in your ear at first you will be greeted with the amount of battery life you have in the earbud. Overall I am so happy with these earbuds and I don’t want to get a new pair EVER LOL! I keep these with me 24/7 and the case is in my pocket at all times. I would HIGHLY recommend these to anyone that is interested in a pair of BOSE earbuds! These are the best earbuds I have ever had and I will be buying a new pair if I ever need to again!!

expensive, but very very good
I have owned various Bose products over the years, including earbuds a long long time ago now. Bose was the leader of active noise cancellation back then, now a number of other companies have since caught up. I found these earbuds to be a departure from my previous experience with Bose products: * noise cancellation: the noise cancellation is still one of the strongest I've seen, especially in earbuds, but the pressure in my ears from it is now gone! I have trouble telling if it is actually on, then today I was inflating some tires with a portable air compressors and could barely hear it. This was a loud repetitive noise, though: the earbuds did get "confused" by a sudden one-off loud noise, such as me closing the door of my car, and I could hear the noise-cancellation trying to "catch up" to my environment. Yeah, it's working, and in a very subtle not-in-your-face fashion! * size: they are much smaller than other noise-cancelling earbuds out there, and also lighter. Unlike others, they stay securely in my ears. This is welcome, the only other noise-cancelling earbuds I have found that were able to accomplish this feat without significant tinkering are the Jabra products. * sound quality: Boses always favoured the low-ends with very crisp articulated highs. I found these earbuds to be much better balanced, almost flat-sounding, but still very crisp. * sound stage: these earbuds completely blew my other earbuds out of the water. They sound like I am in a concert hall. With immersive audio that shift the music when I move my head and the earbuds being so light, listening to music makes it difficult to distinguish if the earbuds are the ones playing the music, or my computer through its speakers * touch controls: I hate touch controls and Bose delivers nothing I like here. It triggers when I adjust the earbuds in my ears, it does the wrong thing, and is just a nuisance. Unfortunately everyone else seems to think it is cool and manufacturers keeps adding it in products large and small. Please bring the buttons back! * battery life: pretty good so far, I haven't reached a situation where they run out of juice on me and I have been using them for a few hours continuously. * battery case is a bit bigger than I thought it would be, and lacks a feature I would have liked to have, such as ability to transmit audio to the earbuds. The Jabras have that, why can't the Boses? Also, no one seems to think about how one is expected to carry this thing: no attachment for lanyard, carabiner or anything else: you have to get a case for that, then hope it doesn't fall out of the case. * wireless charging: this is a new feature for the gen 2 battery case. It works, but it doesn't shut off the pad when done. As a result I have to remove them from the charging pad or they become warm to the touch. * price: like other Bose products, very very expensive for what they are. * app support: I found the app to be very basic with only a few controls. Other brands have better ones.

9.8/10
So far I’m very happy with these. It was a hard choice between these the ultras and the regular QC that cost half the price but are a good bang for your buck and has comparable features but I decided to go big or go home and I feel like it was very worth it. The quality of the headphones themselves feels top tier, they look good, they’re lightweight and very hard to get them to fall out of your ears, the audio quality is amazing and even better once you start messing with the EQ settings, immersive and cinema modes are great, the controls are easy, connectivity from putting them in your ears and starting music is pretty fast. The icing on the cake is the noise canceling, man is it good, like REALLY GOOD. I do blue collar work so I work in construction type environments with lots of noise and I myself work with loud machinery, sanders, vacuums, air compressors etc. and when you put these on with NC you can barely hear anything. I had to double check that my equipment was even on with these things. The only con I have is that for the price tag 6 hours is not enough battery life especially with how bulky these look. I would expect something with a 300 price tag at the bare minimum to have at least 10 hours of battery life before needing to charge but it’s something I can deal with at least they aren’t like apples headphones and earbuds that cost relatively around them price price and only come with 3 hours of battery so I can’t complain too much and all the pros heavily outweigh the 1 con, at least for me. If you’re into sports, anything athletic, working out, or on loud job sites these are amazing. Even if you’re just in it for the sound quality these are a great pick.
