The Quietcomfort range from Bose has long been a market leader thanks to its combination of high-quality sound and impressively efficient noise cancellation. It's been a while since we took a look at the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra earbuds.

Product details
The Bose in-ear headphones with noise-cancelling provide the ultimate earbud experience. A groundbreaking spatial sound enables a more immersive listening experience, allowing you to feel your music like never before, regardless of content and source. Bose Immersive Audio takes what you hear out of your head and places it in front of you for a more natural perception. The CustomTune technology analyzes the shape of your ear and adjusts the sound and premium noise-cancelling so that everything sounds just as it should. The fit is customizable, and you receive combinations of ear tip and stability band sizes. With up to 6 hours of playtime, you can enjoy your favorite songs for as long as you want (up to 4 hours with Immersive Audio). The included charging case provides up to three additional charges. Connect to your devices via advanced Bluetooth 5.3 and keep track of your paired devices in the Bose Music app. You'll be guided through the setup, can customize a shortcut, and gain access to adjustable EQ settings. Available in black or smoke white.

- Powerful sound
- Simple operation
- great ANC
- Sound somewhat lacking in detail
- App with few functions
The QC Ultra deliver warm and powerful sound. Details fall by the wayside a little. The battery life is good, and they are among the best when it comes to noise cancellation: this is very effective and can be reduced in the app. There is also a transparency mode with natural sound.

- Immersive audio works with all content
- The best noise cancellation
- Comfortable and secure fit
- Automatic, individual sound optimisation
- Mediocre battery life with immersive audio activated
- Wireless charging of the housing costs extra

Excellent noise cancelling, powerful sound and great wearing comfort - unfortunately, a constant hissing noise disturbs in quiet music passages.
The strength of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra undoubtedly lies in the convincing ANC system, which leaves the very decent sound almost unaffected. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of usability and workmanship.
Bose probably offers the most efficient ANC tested - but with slight noise. Good sound with a very comfortable fit and a good app.
