    Great headphones, very lightweight (no discomfort after long periods of use), yet durable. AMAZING sound quality without the nosy outside world. The best part about this it is that I bought it on sale at half price. Hold a charge for a respectable amount.

    I’m really enjoying these so far. I originally ordered the Beats Studio Pro online, but when I got them, I couldn’t wear them for longer 15 minutes at a time. The clamping force was insanely strong and caused a lot of pressure on my face. I went to Best Buy to try out a few replacements, and I instantly loved these! They’re lightweight and comfortable, and music sounds clear and crisp. I’ve used them while working out at the gym and while studying at home. The noise-canceling feature really blocks out the world around you. Definitely recommend.

    Lightweight and love the offwhite color! This headphones are not going to 100% cancel out all noise but it does take off 80-90%. You can tell the difference when you switch between aware and quiet mode. They’re perfect for studying and removing most background noise but have enough to be aware of your surroundings! Also perfect for the gym since they’re water resistant!! I am happy with my choice :)

    Pros. Lightweight. Comfortable for hours. Works with frame top of head and under chin. Blocks 80% outboard mortar sound on sailboats, lawn mowers motorcycles etc. Fast charging. Great color selection when order online from Best Buy. Fast free delivery from Best Buy Cons. Annoying feedback when exposed to wind. Annoying computer voice for 5 minutes when turned on and looking to connect[Bluetooth] to devices. REALLY ANNOYING LOUD BLUETOOTH CONNECTION WHEN QC-45 CONNECTED TO ANOTHER DEVICE ON BUS. RAP MUSIC! Best Buys online order and delivery status notifications confusing.

    Great overall sound. Does a very good job at canceling ambient noise which increases sound quality. Very light weight with excellent battery life. Bose did their thing. Best for me.... so far. The search for perfection continues.

    Very lightweight and comfortable. Can be paired with both iPhone and iPad at the same time. Smart enough to know if I’m on a call on my iPhone or a zoom on the iPad and wont interrupt. Cones with a nice carrying case but it doesn’t come with a wall plug, just a USB C cable.

    Excellent Noise Cancelling Headphones

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    There is no pair of headphones on the open market that will eliminate ALL external noise, but this has got to be the closest that the industry has gotten so far. I thought the QC 35s had great noise cancelling properties, but the 45s take it to a new level. There are several things about this pair of headphones that are better than its predecessor. It's light-weight and very comfortable. It has a more streamlined design. And best of all, I haven't experienced ANY connection issues. The sound is seamless. Overall, I highly recommend these headphones, especially for people with sensory issues or anyone who would like to quiet down the world around them. To give you a better idea, here are some of the sounds that it can block out: Noise from traffic/outside (loud neighbors, construction, etc), most fans, most voices from across the room, tv/radio/tablet noise. Any sounds that do get through are incredibly muted, such as voices of people close by and microwave beeps.

    For Comfort and Quality Sound

    This headphone is lightweight and fits comfortably over your ears. When listening to music or podcast the sound quality is above expectations. The bass and treble are nicely balanced to provide live like music. The Bluetooth connects seamlessly. There is a button to isolate unwanted sound. The comfort level of the ear cups surprised me. The battery life was surprising. I charged it twice since using it for two weeks. Bose is known for quality products and they did not disappoint with this headphone.

    Originally purchased BeatsPro over the ear and they were wack cheap and kept pulling my girlfriends hair. Got these for her birthday and she has loved them dearly. They are lighter, her hair does get stuck/pulled where the headphones bend, the headphones are larger and actually fit over her ears completely thanks to the oval shape, and the noise canceling makes to where she cant hear me when im calling for her. Excellent purchase. Worth every penny.

    I was in a bind for some headphones,as last minute pre flight checklist revealed my current were broken..Best Buy to the rescue,on sale they were like $240 and I just took the risk and to be completely honest I will never choose anything less as these set a standard for my travels and everyday life as they are durable,fit comfortably and the sound is comparable to IMAX

    Best Pair of Headphones in the Long term

    Hands down the best purchase I’ve made so far for a pair of headphones. It’s lightweight, has good sound quality and the noise cancelling is in my opinion the best in the market. I had Sony’s WH1000 XM4 before I bought this and the one annoying thing about it was how bulky it was to carry around. With these pairs, one of the best selling points is the case. It’s nice and compact and there’s silicon strips that prevent the edges from wearing out.

    I went from the sony m4s, the sony m5s, and then landed on these. the m5s are great. amazing headphones. the only thing they lack is aesthetics in my opinion. while some may not care for the appearance, i do. and for starters, these are very stylish and sleek looking. now onto quality, to compare these with the m5s. i found that these feel louder and actually excel in treble-based songs. i listen to a lot of rock so guitars are very high pitched; these sound beautiful and really keep the crisp sound of those melodies. theyre lightweight. they dont clamp hard on the ears. and they also have pretty good battery life. ofc, with ANC off itd be evenn better. very high quality, soft leather. pads are very comfortable. they fold which the m5s dont, making these more durable and less prone to breaking. they come in a high quality casing as well. onlyy thing i wish it had was some type of touch sensor on the ear pad to skip. but ofc u can still double click the actual buttons to skip. other than that, no complaints.

    Incredible sounds quality, with far superior bass and quality than beats. The complexity of the headsets sound sometimes brings shivers to your spine (literally). It’s surprisingly light and comes with a sleek case to carry. The noise cancellation is the absolute best in the market right now. Also the price is an absolute STEAL. Buy these headsets before Bose realizes they’re at a loss. I recommend this 100%. Great job Bose!

    I did the best research i could and it didn’t disappoint. Very quiet with the noise cancellation. The side buttons are also super nice its very basic, also the app is kinda cool. Very light weight and moisture resistant. The battery life is crazy good. When you turn them on it tells you how much battery percentage is left which is kinda cool.

    Best out there. Noise cancelling is amazing. Lightweight and comfortable for multiple continuous hours of use. Have given them away as gifts and always get multiple thanks. Buying fourth pair for my son leaving for college so he can use them to focus and literally drown out all the noise!
