The New QuietComfort Ultra Wireless Earbuds operate as spatial audio earbuds for surround sound and as noise cancelling earbuds to block out background noise.

Bro you are spot on. Straight shooter.
I'm so annoyed because every other ear bud I try doesn't have as good of a sound or as good of ANC... But how do Bose's software engineers have a job... Like WTF
You still having the same issues im thinking of getting one ?
Does the ear tip kits for the ultra fit the qcii's? Should I get the used ultras for $150 or new qc ii's for same price?
I bought these only because of the secure fit which I almost never find in other earbuds. For those who want to keep these, or have the QC2, a good work around to eliminate the disconnection issue is to delete the app from your phone. You can also make all the adjustments in the settings of the app, delete it, and the buds will retain the changes. I’ve had almost no audio drop outs/disconnection issues after I’ve done this and I’m in NYC and travel the subway all the time.

@Fredo.heavyy true. Have you tried the denon perl pros? I'm currently trying to figure out which I prefer
I tried deleting the app and it worked for 7months still from time to time the buds lost connection but i putt them in the case
And they work again. Or pair them back and even the settings still remain the same . Still frustrating but they were good for sound to much than the right one suddenly stopped and never worked again
And i was going to go and buy the utra but i am afraid and the sony i like them mx5 but the fit i don't know
I had the Sonys 4, Senheiser MTW3, Sound Core Liberty Pros, Jabra Elite 10, and now the QC Ultras. When I initially heard to Kanye West's Sin City, these straight up made me smile. The ANC on the Bose ultras is the best I've ever had, and the sound quality is excellent overall. The app isn't as adjustable as some others, but it's still really useful and direct. After over two weeks with these, there have been no issues at all. I can understand why some may believe these are pricey considering what they provide, but in all honesty, the problems individuals are facing are the result of laziness. First, multipoint; I don't really care because I'm not that lazy to relocate my fingertip tips and attach them to a different device. I don't really care about wireless charging either; I'm not that lazy to shift my hands and plug things in. The $300 price tag is attributed to the branding, sound quality, and ANC. The only thing about the QC2 that I can comprehend are the connectivity problems; however, a family member who has one for over a year says she loves it and has never had any connectivity problems.

Which one performs better when it comes to sound quality? Qc ultra or Sennheiser MTW3 ? Also what abt that immersive audio thing? Does it performs better than apple’s spatial audio? Or just a gimmick?
@@Arno641 i prefer the bose over any of the ones i mentioned by a mile. The sound quality is good i really enjoy them, but senheisers might get the edge on it since it got more customizable settings. But the bose are amazing with hip hop rap music. The bose are really punchy. And the immersive sound i don’t use it but airpods pro are better , the bose are kinda gimmicky with sound that don’t support the spacial audio. And finally i would not recommend senheisers because of the only reason that the left earbud broke down on me and its a common thing on senheisers according to reviews on websites.
I have bought and returned Sony Xm4 and 5, Senneheiser MTW3, Jabra Elite 10s. None of them had good bass for me. The JBL Tour Pro 2 have amazing bass. I have ordered the Bose QuietComfort Ultra just to test the bass. If they do then the JBL is going back!
Bought the original QC2 2 months after these came out lol, waiting for the new firmware update. Hopefully the ANC gets updated to be as good as these. I heard the ANC are just slightly better on the Ultra. The originals are already top tier
Honestly they can only make it “so much” better. Bose might have a tech architect problem stopping them from implementing updates.
Glad I stumbled across this video and your channel. I was a Bose QC II earbuds user, but the connection issues were absurd. I tried 3 different pairs and they all cut out constantly. Sad to see that Bose did nothing to fix the issue.
Sad reality that a lot of people want to ignore, what buds are you gonna go with now?
I’m loving the AZ80:

@@Fredo.heavyy I'm rocking the Jabra Elite 10 currently. Saw your video on them, agree with most points! For me, the fit is just the best out there right now. ANC I wish was a bit better, but they'll do for now. Might have to give the AZ80 a try.
Perfect review
Thanks fam
Great Review! Random qq - which glasses are u using? :)
A nyc company that went out of business called “hey wear”
My first priority is ANC. Do you think the ANC is as good as QC 45?
Anc maybe but sure not as good with passive isolation
You're right. I tested the ultras too. They really have too many connectivity problems, the same as the quiet comfort 2. I really wanted to use them ... Which earbuds can you recommend without these problems and for good calls in a loud environment for Android?
There’s a few option depending on your budget, really enjoying the:
- Technics AZ80
They have great ANC even better Aware mode and sound is true.
- Tozo Golden X1
also on the top of my list with awesome ANC and Transparency mode, I would say these sound better than AZ80.
- Sony XM5
If you pair them with some alternative ear tips like “AZLA SednaEarfit MAX ASMR” and don’t mind a little bit of roboticsness with Aware mode
@@Fredo.heavyy thank you so much. I will test the Sony
Sorry to hear you're having connection issues. I've used the original QC Buds and now the QC Buds II for many years and have never had a connection problem. Maybe you need a better phone?
Me and thousand of people on Reddit and my comment section.
Bose poor connectivity and poor app support is heavily documented.
Wish the Bose worked for me as fit and comfort are superior!
For the record devices I use MacBook M1 Max, M2 iPad Pro, IPhone 13 Pro, Razer Edge 5G. All modern devices on common OS, beside Microsoft.
I’m total agreement with you in this video. I’m actually annoyed because I have QC2 last year and I use foam mesh ear tip for better seal and increase bass. The fact this came out year later is very annoying. But the connection issue on the QC2 is still there. and Bose cannot call themselves Ultra and price it at 300 bucks it’s BS when the problem is still there and put out a product that’s pretty much the same a year later. No wireless charging and no Multipoint it’s not an upgrade from QC2. This should be a firmware update for the QC2 and save those colors when Bose step up and actually do a upgrade and put in the wireless charging, fix your connection issues and multipoint for QC3
Hopefully they see the compounding feedback and make some changes
Like I said in your video about the predecessors. It’s a shame that they still have those connectivity problems in crowded areas. No multipoint etc. unfortunately I couldn’t use AirPods Pro because they instantly fall out of my ears without those wingtips. So I ordered foam tips from Amazon and bought AirPods Pro. Works perfect for me and no more issues with anything.
Foam tips are a great solution but I pretty active with my ear buds so sweat and foam don’t mix. There another silicone based ear tip solution called “AZLA SednaEarfit XELASTEC Auto-Fitting Eartips Compatible with AirPods Pro” check those out
@@Fredo.heavyyoh nice. I’ll check those out. Thanks a lot. 👍🏽👍🏽
Throwing in a little intrigue at the start… 😮 … new ‘tube’ lights ? 🎉
Do you also have this problem that the left earbud is making some strange buzzing/ coil whine noise? I got my replacement unit and they do the same
Yes I’ve experienced that issue on multiple units as well
@@Fredo.heavyy did You find any fix or just went through enough pairs to finally find the one that works as intended?
@@altgamingopinion1974 never got a solution, moved away from Bose, using other earbuds rn
I've found that the left earbud on the quietcomfort ultra tends to give me a faint buzzing sound while anc is on. It's really noticeable when you're in a quiet environment with no audio playing. Sometimes, you can even hear the hardware running in the background. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Many people have encountered this issues, return them asap if you can. Check out the AZ80 - ruclips.net/video/WXGzZ4nCbyA/видео.htmlsi=wMrGOEhthaw4jstR
Nope
I have QC2 and AirPods Pro2 and they both are good but I don’t use the Bose app, which I think it helps avoid drop outs. I work in noisy environments so I prefer Bose but it depends on your situation which is better for you. Everyone is different.
I saw on Reddit that Bose wireless architecture is what’s causing issues and might not be repair able via software.
Would explain why they don’t give us basic features like multipoint.
I was really hoping the ultras were going to have ironed out the problems of the QC2's. Looks like Bose didn't listen to the customers?
They spent no time on R&D or updating their products based off customer concerns
This channel is going to grow a ton. Great video man!
I appreciate that!
Doubtful. I own the Bose QC Ultra earbuds and his review is egregiously inaccurate and just plain ignorant. He doesn't even understand the different settings of these earbuds.
@@franklong6269 Another Bozo
My opinion and analysis is valid and my testing empirical.
Take a lap.
@@Fredo.heavyy Wow, you don't have a clue about what "empirical testing," you don't even know what it is. I have two engineering degrees from ABET accredited colleges and I can categorically say that NOTHING in your review was based on "empirical testing." Other RUclips reviewers use audio testing equipment to evaluate the audio range of earbuds. Other RUclips reviewers use actual listening equipment that transfers the real sound of the earbuds to their RUclips videos so that viewers can compare sound quality side by side. Other reviewers use audio equipment that ACCURATELY measures the ANC ranges of each set of earbuds, rather than just give a subjective opinion. YOU don't use ANY of these "empirical" methods.
NOTHING about your reviews is empirical, everything is based on your subjective feelings. Hell you're too stupid to take off your earbuds in a heavy rainstorm and you don't even realize that nearly ALL earbuds on the market would fail under those conditions.
I would suggest before you call someone a "bozo," that you go look in the mirror. You will see the King of "bozos" in the reflection!
Yeah too much people complaining about the buzzing sound. No point shelling out a premium price for so called “ultra” earbuds. Shame because I wanted to get them for the comfort 😭 thx for the review chief! Think you might have saved someone here
I totally agree!
3 replacements, even updated to the newest update which allegedly fixes this. Couldn't return them fast enough
I bought these for 5 days I’ve had a allergic reaction to the silicone and it’s made the inside of my ears swell up unfortunately so I’ve sold them going back to the AirPods pro
That’s wild to me but it’s a real allergic reaction and Bose tips are unique shape so can replace them.
Do you use standard air pod tips?
@@Fredo.heavyy yes standard tips never had any issues
you forgot to mention buzzing and crackling noise when ANC is active and you are using them to cut you form surrounding noise, they will generate their on noise :))
I bought the QC Ultra two days ago...yea the listening experience is really nice and the ANC is superb. But it constantly disconnects, and although comfortable in the ear I do experience ear fatigue after 3+ hours non stop wearing. It should be $250 tho not $300. If they were $250 it would receive better reviews.
Before i git my technics az80s i was using the bose qc earbuds 2 and they had alot of connection issues now dont get me wrong they fit really well there noise canceling and aware mode are amazing they sound good have good battery life but the connection issues and no wireless charging are you kidding me, now i have thought about trying the ultras but they seem to be the same story as the qc 2s so idk
Yea the Ultra still suffer from a lot of issue here in the US
I got QC Ultra coming as a replacement for QC IIs. I think the Black IIs look better than the Black Ultras, not a fan of the metallic look.
Los compré y cada vez que los conectaba tenían un zumbido cada vez que me conectaba a RUclips o con la televisión los devolví
I have the ultra buds too, those are not good, white noise always come out, when you connect with aptx code even worsen.
Return them if you still can and check out the AZ80
ruclips.net/video/GqAF274LuT4/видео.htmlsi=KDFE918qTTmKdACg
The funny thing bose did this to there 900 sound bar... added AI for voice clarity and call it the ultra sound bar.. but i got an update on my 900 and they added it for free...now i have an altra..lol
I purchased the QC Ultras and they already stopped connecting 😂.
Returning today!
I have the S23 Ultra.
Also, looking at the comments I did get a dinging noise in the left earbud when I was eating (Annoying).
What other earbuds are you considering?
@@Fredo.heavyy I am not sure bro! I am the type of person that will look at the same headphones/earbuds on amazon for 2 months until I'm ready to buy. I waited about a month before pulling the trigger on these buds and now I'm honestly just a little disappointed.
What would you recommend?
@@thorgodofhammers1556I think best all-rounder buds are Jabra elite 10 very comfortable fit, top tier anc almost airpods pro 2 level and Jabra app is awesome no issue on connectivity and sound is also pretty good
The connectivity on my Bose ultra is just so bad that I sent them back!
Multipoint is such a moot point.
DESGIN. Bro, typo.
You right! I’m a one man content team rn
@@Fredo.heavyy it's all good
owned status headphones and they sucked. sound is 'meh' and I'm a professional sound mixer with most big artists out there for 35 years. I wanted to like them. plus they don't stay in your ear as they are too lopsided/heavy and fall out of your ears. I finally got sick of 'em and just tossed them in the trash. going to look for new ones from someone else
Have you tried the technics az80
Did you install the firmware update? If you don't install the update, you will have connectivity issues. I own these earbuds and before the update, I had connectivity problems. After the update, I have had ZERO connectivity issues. I have not lost a signal connection once. I have had NO "cutout" issues.
1. I agree with your criticism of lack of multipoint connectivity. It is a glaring issue with these earbuds.
2. These earbuds DO have IPX4 water resistance. What the hell do you want? Are you really too stupid to take off your earbuds in a heavy rainstorm and put them in their case? These are not military-grade earbuds designed for special force units. Geez!
3. You can turn off the voice prompts in the app if you don't like them. Do your homework before you put out a review! I DO like hearing which of the three sound modes I am in because with touch controls, it confirms that I am where I want to be.
A lot of your criticisms are petty and uneducated. I don't doubt that they are your honest feelings, but vomiting out inaccurate complaints about these excellent earbuds is a disservice to your audience. Further, I am betting that the alternative earbuds you suggest are nowhere near the quality of the Bose QC II Ultra earbuds. If they were, they would be all over RUclips in reviews. There are a plethora of cheap earbud alternative reviews, and I have not heard of these earbuds anywhere.
Nope I returned the inferior product, im unburdened by the dilema of choosing between bad and worse unlike many others.
What’s more ignorant? a billion dollar company omitting features + shipping an un-polished product or you defending them?
The quality control issue reports are rampant on Reddit and other forums. A “firmware update” isn’t going to save you from bad hardware or the infamous hissing in the left ear bud.
You’re even incorrectly quoting my video (which is stupid of you) I listed the IP spec correctly and even still IPX4 is abysmal.
I’ll stick with my healthy rotation of:
Sony XM5
Technics AZ80
Status Between 3ANC
Tozo Golden X1
Each superior to the Bose Ultra and able to handle my active lifestyle (boxing, running, lifting and nyc commuting)
@@Fredo.heavyy To be fair, I have no firsthand experience with any of the earbuds you use. And I respect that different people have different preferences. I wish you the best with your earbuds.
Agree
@@Fredo.heavyy Reddit is run by a group of extreme-left, radical young twits, who are probably just like you. Neither Reddit nor you have a clue. That's why when I research important issues I NEVER go to Reddit because all you get is speculation and gossip, and damn few facts!
1. In order to change the volume on the Sony XM5s, you have to tap the earbud four freaking times. Changing volume is by far the most used feature on earbuds. This DEFECT alone would drive me crazy! The Sony XM5's moronic ergonomics alone disqualify them from being "superior." Further, MULTIPLE reviewers have commented that the in-ear foam plugs on the XM5s is not secure and becomes uncomfortable fairly quickly. So basically, they are a pain in the ass to use lol.
2. Technics AZ80. Reviews have been very good for these earbuds but most reviewers state that the ANC, audio quality and fit comfort of the earbuds is not quite as good as the Bose QC Ultra earbuds. They do have multipoint connection which is a plus and they do have a lot of customization. So, based on reviews, they are competitive with the Bose Ultra earbuds but not even close to being "superior."
3. Status Between 3ANC. Nobody has even heard of these earbuds and if they were that good, they would be all over the internet and they are not. Apparently you are delusional or you are being paid to push them on your subscribers. Clearly, they are not "superior." No one agrees with you.
4. Tozo Golden X1. Nobody has even heard of these earbuds and if they were that good, they would be all over the internet and they are not. Apparently you are delusional or you are being paid to push them on your subscribers. Clearly, they are not "superior." No one agrees with you.
I use the Bose QC Ultra earbuds at the gym all the time. I play basketball with them, lift weights with them and more. They are the best workout earbuds I have ever used by far. So you are just plain lying about the ability of these earbuds to keep up with your "active lifestyle."
100% spot on. A complete joke at £300. Madness
Dawg, you have a gf, we get it, congratulations! 😂😂
Dont buy bose linkbuds =trash . Bose ultra are amazing!! If you love bass!!
The bose ultra earbuds don't let you disable touch controls, even if u disable them from bose app. Even while chewing food , these would pause ur music , these r probably the most stupid earbuds and buggiest earbuds ever and not worth 10 dollars
