"you don't need to mask with sound to block unwanted noise. ... The misses actually gets a little annoyed sometimes because she's trying to get my attention and I can't hear her. That's because I didn't realize I still had the buds on even though I finished work!"


"amazing, amazing, amazing ANC performance for earbuds! ... not even close in ANC performance vs these (Bose QuietComfort Earbuds (2024)) ... I, for ANC, prefer the approach Bose takes, blocking out pretty much all frequencies."


"I use the buds when it’s windy as the 4’s pick up too much noise. ... is particularly good at blocking out wind."

"wear them for 8h+ everyday no sweat."


"super comfortable for long sessions"

"The bass is just incredible compared to the others. It really blew me away at first."


"I switched to the Bose QCEs and it made me realize how flat sounding AirPods really are."


"The Bose QC earbuds sound better than the QC Ultra to me. Especially when it comes to bass, the earbuds are the clear winner."

"They also lasted 6 1/2 hours (I accidentally left them one for awhile after the marathon)."


"I also can't remember the last time I charged them."


"they indeed last more than 8 hours on battery WITH ANC ON THE WHOLE TIME! Wow. ... Right now, I've had them on for 4 hours listening to an audiobook with ANC on. My work day is half over and I still have 70% battery. My Airpods Pro 2 would be almost out of juice at this point."

"I've had my bose QC for...6 years now. Still perfect"


"Have had a pair for a few years that have been used in a variety of rough environments. ... Still work flawlessly"


"my Bose QC earbuds have been going strong for years. ... I cycle daily and lift in the gym every every other day - so my earbuds get at least 10 hours weekly of use/abuse while sweating like crazy and my Bose QC earbuds have been going strong for years. ... Wax has never been an issue for me."

"What really sucks is that they automatically turn off after about 20 minutes. This only happens when I'm lying down. ... But once I lie down during my break, while taking a nap, or when I want to sleep and my neighbor is being loud, they turn themselves off. ... I wake up and find them disconnected, turned off, and with 100% battery. ... Sure enough, when I took a nap today, the buds turned off ~20 minutes into my nap."


"when I ’m lying down, they stop constantly, and it’s a royal pain. ... But I can’t use them if I want to lie down and chill out ... I’m very disappointed that I can’t use them at night in bed ... they won’t play for more than 10 minutes or so without disconnecting. ... Sometimes I can tap on the bud to get it to reconnect, but not always. ... I have used wireless earbuds for many years and I have never seen such an odd behavior."


"There doesn't seem to be a way to disable this. ... Sometimes, when it connects to the app, it says something about "turning off battery optimization," but I can't find that option anywhere on the app. ... The new QCE app doesn't have that setting, even though I occasionally get a pop-up that says I can set this in the "Battery Optimization" tab. ... The app they force you to use is really watered-down though, so even if it's a settings issue, there's no way for me to fix it through the app."

"I've had 3 break in a year's time. 3. ... Audio was because I made an attempt to clean the speaker with a q-tip as suggested but apparently was too rough with it or something. ... The second time I stupidly tried to clean the microphone, again in the way they recommend. Which broke the ANC completely. ... The third time the left earbud randomly started playing Audio at extremely low volume. I had not touched anything important. Didn't even switch the rubber set or plug. This was in the same month I got them. ... I still am frustrated though at how easy they break. ... it's been a few months since then and the ANC is starting to fail again and I have no idea why."

"I had the same problem and returned them."


"if you sweat a lot these aren’t the earbuds to buy. ... Sweat will change the settings and skip songs and switch modes, and they will fall out of your ears. ... Bose QC are not for those who sweat a lot by the way. They’ll fall out of your ear and the modes will switch and songs get skipped."


"I don't find them comfortable at all, though. Way too big for my ears."
