A little on the bulbous side but the sound and slick controls more than make up for it

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review

Great sound, powerful noise cancellation – but can Bose's new true wireless earphones tip Sony off its perch?

Best-in-class ANC Rich, clear sound Secure, comfortable fit Wireless charging

Lacks on-board volume control Bulky charging case Case could offer more charge

It’s Bose’s second attempt at a set of true wireless headphones, and the QuietComfort Earbuds are leaps and bounds better than the older SoundSport Free. Not only is the design a lot better, the noise cancellation is exemplary. Sound quality is also...

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review: The in-ear noise-cancelling king

Bose's top-end in-ears offer super sound and great noise-cancelling (ANC) technology. This could be the best in-ear option on the market right now.

Great noise-cancelling ; Fantastic sound quality ; Fit is secure and comfortable for long periods ; Wireless charging case an added bonus

Design is quite chunky ; Case could offer more charge

These 'buds keep ambient noise at bay, while the comfort is supreme for a pair of in-ears. Add that to sound that'll make all your favourite songs sound amazing, and it's hard to think of a more complete pair of true wireless in-ears in terms pure...

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review

The sound of silence

Noise-cancelling as good as you’d expect from Bose ; 11 levels of ANC in the app ; Good seal ; Bassy but balanced listen

Touch controls initially confusing, and no volume slider ; Case is enormous

The new champ of ANC wireless earbuds

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review: Best ANC Buds

Bose may be fashionably late to the party, but the wait was worth it. Are the new QuietComfort Earbuds the best wireless ANC buds you can buy? We found out.

Best noise-canceling buds ; Excellent call quality ; Exciting audio quality ; Solid battery life ; Secure fit

No multi-point connection ; A bit bulky

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review: noise-canceling champion

Better at silencing your surroundings than Apple or Sony.

Best noise cancellation yet among true wireless earbuds ; Excellent sound quality ; Comfortable, secure fit

Large carrying case ; No way to go back to the last track with the earbuds ; Can only pair to one device at a time

Bose’s new QuietComfort Earbuds aren’t cheap, but they sound great and offer better active noise cancellation than other true wireless earbuds like the Apple AirPods Pro and Sony WF-1000XM3 earbuds.

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Review

The true wireless Bose QuietComfort Earbuds offer strong audio performance and the most effective noise cancellation we've tested in the category to date.

Expensive ; Sound signature isn't for purists ; Bulky case ; On-ear controls could be more complete

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds review

Bose thought small and it paid off big

Great audio quality ; Elegant design ; Excellent active noise cancelling ; Simple touch interface

Massive earbuds and charging case ; Battery life could be better

The Bose QuietComfort brings the excellent audio and active noise cancellation from its headphones and puts them into a tiny pair of earbuds with relatively no sacrifices.
