As one of the largest audio hardware providers, Bose has become synonymous with quality and consistency. Speakers and music systems are some of their most popular items but the QuietComfort 35 headphones are the active noise cancelling headphones that many users have been waiting for.
At $350, it is a small price bump compared to the previous QuietComfort 25 model which puts it closer to the Beats’ Studio wireless cost. Like the previous model, the QC 35 is lightweight, comfortable, and immersive according to user reviews. With microphones inside and outside the earcups, Bose says the QC35 senses, measures, and sends unwanted sounds to two digital electronic chips, one for each ear, that respond with a precise, equal and opposite signal in a fraction of a millisecond. Also equipped with a brand new equalizing system, the QC35 can balance sound at any supported volume.
Battery life is rated at 20 hours, which is more than most wireless devices and especially efficient for wireless headphones. Also included is an integrated remote on the right earcup with volume, playback, and call controls. For those who want the quality of this Bose headset but take comfort in the consistency of a wired headset, a cable is included and the headphones work with Bose’ free Connect app for iOS and Android devices as well as standard PCs.
