I have several QC35 for +5 years. They have been perfect with zero issue since. I don't know how much reduction in battery life since new and I usually charge them a few times a week. I love how Bose bluetooth sync up to almost anything instantly compared to other bluetooth headphones/speakers I've had. Unless my QC35 dies, it would be hard for me to upgrade to the QC45.
I have owned both the QC35 and Bose 700 and I regret upgrading to the 700. The qc35 are way more comfortable and the stronger clamping on the 700 make them uncomfortable for long term use. Sometimes I would forget I even had the qc35 on my head they were so comfortable. I will definitely be going with the qc45 when they are released.
Also they have no bass at all, and when you walk with them there is a clicking noise, because the edges of the hoop touch the earcups when you move your head (even slightly). They also fall off your head. I bought them, returned them and then bought the QC 35 II.
I have been in debate for the QC45 and the Bose 700 for a while now. It is my first pair of noise cancelling headphones and I have been trying to find as much information as possible. Thank you so much for explaining each well, and making my decision that much easier. I will definitely be getting the 700.
También quiero mis primeros auriculares con ANC y aún no decido si el Qc45, el 700. Cuál elejiste? Cómo te fue con el audio y la cancelación de sonido y batería. Sería genial leer tus comentarios de uso del auricular. Saludos.
I have all three and I have to say after wearing them ( 35's for years ) and (700's 1 year ) and recently the 45s, I've got to say the 45s are perfect. The 700 fall off my head to often and I do feel the pressure over an hour of wearing them. The 700s Just fruaste me when working on a project while. the 35s are comfortable and i can wear all day long thought they are horrible when it comes to the mics, I literally replaced those 35s 3 times due to the mic. Now recently the 45s are just Perfect for me. They don't fall off and the mics are so much better. Ohh if you have an Android phone, even the top of the line phoone like an S22 ultra( the new note) the 700 still screech when connecting. Annoying as hell. IPhone might not have that issue
Good review. My son has (my gift for graduation from middle school) the QC 35 that I bought from Bose as a refurbished product. He is extremely happy with them, with no issues so far, and he keep saying they are very comfortable to use for a long period of time.
I just received my qc45 and they are REALLY CONFORMABLE! Sound is amazing, not the best bass but does it's job, long story short, the word CONFORMABLE in its name its true! ANC works well no complains 😉
I wanna buy qc35ii cause Sony equivalent is more expensive and I don't like touch instead of buttons, but everyone saying that bass is not that good has me worried...
I bought the QC45's right after Christmas, just returned them for 700's. The 45's were great, except had major sound leakage. People around me were both distracted and somewhat annoyed. The 700's seem to be much better. This is an aspect that no one seems to mention in reviews.
@@mosa8311 thats just how it is homie. You want the best quality? You gotta spend the big bucks. But if you dont have the money, maybe the Sony xm3. Plus the xm4 is actually cheaper than the Bose 700 so theres that
Good video. I also bought both the 700s and Q35 and feels like the 35s are better in every single way except microphone quality. If they took the microphone from 700s and shoved it into a new q35 series 3 or whatever, it would be perfect
Please Am not English man Which one is better Bose qc35 or Bose qc45 or Sony or what? And what is your opinion about soundcore life Q35 Which one is the best highquality of music details .. Help me
yes but I just received my 45 and i have the 35 also and based on my test i can say 45 like it is limited on 80% of qc35 so it as clearer on 100% yes as it is far not as loud as the 35. But my much bigger problem is the bass. compared to 35 it is like a mouse roar. 45 is big disappointment sending back
Thank you for the video! QC 35 II wires got loose over time. Then Bose offered me 20$ for them, so I had to decline their generous offer lol. Bought 700s from a private party brand new. Happy with it. Not really after the latest thing as they seem to lose value pretty quickly, so staying one step behind is not such a bad idea to get a noticeable discount. Got 700's new for 250$
The nice update that almost goes unnoticed is that the cups are one piece now. It's like a great refinement. Also your mic test was hard to judge since you changed locations.
I got my Bose 700s as part of the pre-order deal for the Pixel 6 phone UK. Bit of a no brainer was that - a great pair of headphones and a great phone for £600 ($790). Once I worked out that you HAVE to use the app for setting them up otherwise all sorts of weird things happen I love them. The only real problem I have is that two times out of three they're crap at making phone calls and the person on the other end tells me they can't hear me or I sound really quiet. I just wish I had your young ears but that's not the fault of the headphones. My ear hardware needs an upgrade :-(
@@PeterGaunt i swear they were like £300 last year. There is an offer going right now. Do you think they are worth it? Or should i just get the airpods pros 2 for £100 more?
@@wealthykind8322 I'm very happy with mine (other than the microphone) but I didn't know I could use them for phone calls anyway. They have excellent sound quality. I don't know anything at all about airpods.
Very well done my friend. Great job. Helped me immensely in making a decision. BTW...this is the first time I have ever seen a RUclips video without a "dislike" . Congrats!!
I have gone from QC15's to QC35 II's, to now looking for possibly the QC45's. I still have all pairs and they work as well as ever. The QC15's are perfect for children on planes, replace the ear cups and you're golden (same with QC35's as well)!
I wore my QC 35s for 6+ years and I finally wore them out. I bought the 700s in dec 2019. I’m about to buy the 45s for only one reason…COMFORT especially on long plane rides.
I have been rocking first gen qc35 since release, I use them heavily went through 3rd ear cushions, now I can relax and know what to buy if they break down
I have a small head , thank you for this comparison review I was wondering how the QC45 would be like. I own the 700 and LOVE IT so much during my studious sessions. Keep up the awesome detailed reviews! 👍
Hey man, great video. First one of yours I’ve seen. I have the QC35s and I wanted to know the differences. You were very thorough. I sent your video to a friend of mine who also has the 35s. I think I’ll buy the 45s and give my wife my 35s. 👍🏻🙏🏻
Got the 700s, QC35 ii and Sony wxm3. All have their merits. 35s are the most comfortable and light. Sony's have a lovely sound but crap call quality. 700s are the least comfortable but best sound quality and noise cancelling IMO. I do think the wxm4s would be the best since they've apparently fixed the issues with the wxm3s and added additional mics.
Sony disappointed me with sound quality. Without added equalizer settings they sound muddy and bassy. I sent them back and kept my Bose. But the new xm5 are great - they sound more open and natural - especially in the mids. Their sound signature is comparable with the Air Pods Max.
Im able to work remote for work, so its really great to be able to go to coffee shops and other loud environments to work and still have my zoom calls with the Bose 700 mic filtering out that sound the best and not having to worry about other people talking. I used to not work in coffee shops because I wasn't able to have those zoom meetings other than at my place or quiet environments.
I’m not sure how you tested the microphone but I’m constantly using headphones while talking to people on the phone with these headphones on. And let me tell you this, if you’re looking for the best phone conversation piece go with 35! I’ve tried all 3 headphones and I’m so disappointed in the new 45. The microphones are just horrible. My friends always complain that my microphone on my headphones suck
I have the QC 35 II’s and I freaking love them. I tried my friends 700’s and their cool and the sound is great but after wearing them for awhile they felt pretty tight on my head which I didn’t like. I’m also not the biggest fan of the touch movements on the 700s as they confuse me and because I like physical buttons. So I’m def gonna be going with the 45’s at some point as my 35 II’s are still rocking. But yeah I’m def going with the 45’s when it’s time. Maybe at some point I may decide to pick up a pair of 700s.Keep making awesome reviews man!!! Enjoyed this one man.
same with me I ordered the 700 but I didn't feel right with it, it actually hurt me a lot when I put it on, hurt my head and my ears so I immediately returned it and bought the 35 which turned out pretty good. I wanna switch to the 45 but I'm not sure if it's worth the money.
Don't buy qc45. Purchased them 2 months ago and had tried them on in stores. They sound pretty good in the store but when I finally got it and used them. They are pretty trash. Noise cancellation is meh, and what is really shitty about it is that is only has two modes, and the transparency mode is useless for me (I just feel it is less respectful to talk to another person with headphones on). As soon as the environment gets a bit windy, you are dead. So yeah, QC 45 is such a disappointment for me as I really loved my QC35 II so much.
@@minahaaning2611 I have 35ii version and got 45s at Target ..had them simultaneously for 10 days and 35 is absolutely WINNER in any aspect, comfort..sound...noise canceling..top ! Even built quality feel is more professional on 35s. Its like that first ever made Mercedes..that never break down lol . I returned 45s, I just have feeling they watered down 45s to push customers more towards "new" tech 700s. I just dont like sensor swipe on 700s..prefer physical buttons more due to wearing gloves..cold weather...accidental touch or swipe while wearing them on the neck etc. Just make sure u use original 35ii firmware version and dont mess with updating it to newer lol , mostly it messes up the noise canceling that you get used to it. hope it helps.
I have the QC35, and the sound is beginning to break up a bit and go in and out while listening to either movies or music. Idk what happened to them, but I believe it might be because a wire is loose inside the top part of the headphones because sometimes when I slap it, it works normally again, but not for long. It’s very annoying, but I’ve adored those headphones for years. I’m afraid I’ll have to get another pair, as they’re so expensive these days still….. :(
Have the 35s and use them when working out in the weather as I don't care as much about them, I have a pair 700s and I just love them, the sound is just that much better, love the touch controls.
@@mrmr4622 they added an equalizer for the QC earbuds and the NC700. I am not sure on the sport earbuds. I have the QC earbuds and the NC700. The QC earbuds sound awesome with the bass at 10, the midrange at 6 and the treble at 7. Honestly, they are some of the best sounding earbuds period right now and I have tried a lot.
The QC45s are nice but i agree not worth the upgrade if you already own the QC35s, also i have never turn the volume up to 100% on my QC35s normally 60-70% is good for me even with ANC toggled off.
As the mic test went, the 45 sounded absolutely awful. The 35 was the best for the voice, but the 700 managed a better noise cancellation. Just for a few hours more battery life, I will not go with the 45. Thanks for the great review.
I'm wearing NC 700 for a while now and there was a couple things which blew my mind right away after switching from my old QC 25 The noise cancellation is outstanding, no more the static noise like 25s had, the "conversation" mode which reverse the wave of noise cancelling in y axis making a great deal when shopping or outside, where you can listen to your music and still hear all calls from the station - great invention. The simultaneous paring of 2 devices is very handy although phone notifications doesn't ring when you are watching RUclips or listening other stuff on your PC. Probably the system settings though. I'm pretty sure that NC 700 can do something I've always wanted - Shut up the loud kids on the plane - and within 3 days I will find out. Merry Xmas!!!
@@AHMED-nk3kw Well, not as loud as with QC25, but still hearable - some noises are engraved in our lifes I guess 😅 - But being perfectly honest - there was none on board back then; at least I haven't noticed. Basically, you need to listen carefully to make it annoying you.
Thank you for good tests!! I like qc35 .because i feel no pain in my ears inside with noise canceling mode. Is this air pressure? Qc45 is bad because I feel pain. No good English sorry.
tbh im kind of disappointed with the microphones of the qc45. thought it would at least be as good as the microphones in the qc35...microphone is really important to me. I'm considering going for the qc35 ii's or maybe waiting to see if they address the qc45's microphones quality and provide passive noise cancelling (i.e off mode) in an update or qc45 ii release. also gotta mention great review as always!
Great review.. appreciate the mic test. 45 failed in my view. 700 was the winner in my eyes. Wish you had covered two additional items: 1. 700 comes with a charging case. 2. 700 does NOT fold and needs to stay in its usable shape vs the 35 and the 45 that folds like the QC 25.
I would love to see you testing Bang & Olufsen HX! Have you had a chance to use them? I'd like to buy either Bose 700 ANC or HX, do you think that sound quality is better in HX? As far as mic is concerned, I can see that 700 ANC are great for phone calls and can isolate background noises. Do you know if HX are as good? Great job and beautiful quality of your videos, many thanks 😍
Great review! Do any of these allow changing the battery? I'm still using QC25 because there the headphones do not go bad once the battery life is bad.
fun fact, i thought the same thing with the 35s, for some reason if you have hair or even the slightest little thing between your ear/head and the earcups you get distortion: in other words you have to have a low to no hair with the 35s, i’ve tested this out for years cause every time i get a haircut the dude of my head is almost bald and i get no distortion, when my hair grows back the distortion come back. i first thought something was wrong i even sent them back to bose but then realized it was because i just simply had hair.
Wow thanks for putting out the comparison fast. Great video! I was hoping the QC 45 will have a good awareness/transparency close to the AirPods max. Also the microphone is not that impressive if I’m hearing it right. Nevertheless, awesome video. Well presented. More power!
Still using my Bose QC35ii after 5 years and they work perfectly with no issues. Super glad I purchased them the comfort is unrivaled

@@minahaaning2611 I have 35ii version and got 45s at Target ..had them simultaneously for 10 days and 35 is absolutely WINNER in any aspect, comfort..sound...noise canceling..top ! Even built quality feel is more professional on 35s. Its like that first ever made Mercedes..that never break down lol . I returned 45s, I just have feeling they watered down 45s to push customers more towards "new" tech 700s. I just dont like sensor swipe on 700s..prefer physical buttons more due to wearing gloves..cold weather...accidental touch or swipe while wearing them on the neck etc. Just make sure u use original 35ii firmware version and dont mess with updating it to newer lol , mostly it messes up the noise canceling that you get used to it. hope it helps.
I have the QC35, and the sound is beginning to break up a bit and go in and out while listening to either movies or music. Idk what happened to them, but I believe it might be because a wire is loose inside the top part of the headphones because sometimes when I slap it, it works normally again, but not for long. It’s very annoying, but I’ve adored those headphones for years. I’m afraid I’ll have to get another pair, as they’re so expensive these days still….. :(
Heyo, Kansas City!!! I know that skyline and those steps there by the Liberty Memorial. I used to work inside Union Station. Great review! 💪
Haha Nice... yup one of my fav spots to film!
Pefect review. Thanks bro
Have the 35s and use them when working out in the weather as I don't care as much about them, I have a pair 700s and I just love them, the sound is just that much better, love the touch controls.
Great review man! Appreciate it!
Good review. But which is your choice?
Well presented and good comparison, dude, thanks!
How can you compare the 45 anc if you change the location?! ☹️
I know right...My guess is he didn't have the 45s at the time
Great video thanks for this
This video was super helpful and clear, thanks for making the great content!
Great video! FYI! The BOSE QC earbuds have added an equalizer and they sound awesome!!
I hope the same happens with the QC 45 since I will buy them. :D
They added equaliser for every model?
@@mrmr4622 Only QC earbuds and NC700 as far as I know.
@@mrmr4622 they added an equalizer for the QC earbuds and the NC700. I am not sure on the sport earbuds. I have the QC earbuds and the NC700. The QC earbuds sound awesome with the bass at 10, the midrange at 6 and the treble at 7. Honestly, they are some of the best sounding earbuds period right now and I have tried a lot.
Hi, In your opinion, which headphones have stronger and cleaner bass?
are they Bose QC35 II or Bose QC45?
Thank you for this review I found it incredibly helpful!
December 2022 - still worth it going for the QC35 ii?
just ordered the QC35's for 269.00 Canadian...can't wait to get them...cheers from Canada
Great comparison. Thank very much.
what mic do u use? cheers
Best comparison I’ve seen thank you so very much
That silver is SICK
The QC45s are nice but i agree not worth the upgrade if you already own the QC35s, also i have never turn the volume up to 100% on my QC35s normally 60-70% is good for me even with ANC toggled off.
Thank you sooo much for break down analysis. Really appreciate it 👍🏾😇
*the
I have the qc 35 and can t complain about it, I bought them for 180€ and was the best investment
Brutal review 👏👏👏💿🤘
As the mic test went, the 45 sounded absolutely awful. The 35 was the best for the voice, but the 700 managed a better noise cancellation.
Just for a few hours more battery life, I will not go with the 45.
Thanks for the great review.
i feel like it was an unfair test cus he did the 45s on a highway but the other two near a basic road
Hi, great review! I have an extremely large head and ears, just wondering which model has the biggest ear coverage?
I'm wearing NC 700 for a while now and there was a couple things which blew my mind right away after switching from my old QC 25
The noise cancellation is outstanding, no more the static noise like 25s had, the "conversation" mode which reverse the wave of noise cancelling in y axis making a great deal when shopping or outside, where you can listen to your music and still hear all calls from the station - great invention. The simultaneous paring of 2 devices is very handy although phone notifications doesn't ring when you are watching RUclips or listening other stuff on your PC. Probably the system settings though. I'm pretty sure that NC 700 can do something I've always wanted - Shut up the loud kids on the plane - and within 3 days I will find out. Merry Xmas!!!
So, what about those loud kids? 😄
@@AHMED-nk3kw Well, not as loud as with QC25, but still hearable - some noises are engraved in our lifes I guess 😅 - But being perfectly honest - there was none on board back then; at least I haven't noticed. Basically, you need to listen carefully to make it annoying you.
@@Kombivar i’ll be buying the 700s then! Thanks for answering back
I get zero static on my QC25s.
Thank you for good tests!! I like qc35 .because i feel no pain in my ears inside with noise canceling mode. Is this air pressure?
Qc45 is bad because I feel pain. No good English sorry.
5:57 who turns their volume up to 100%??????
Obviously not everyone. But I don't think it's farfetched to say some do.
tbh im kind of disappointed with the microphones of the qc45. thought it would at least be as good as the microphones in the qc35...microphone is really important to me. I'm considering going for the qc35 ii's or maybe waiting to see if they address the qc45's microphones quality and provide passive noise cancelling (i.e off mode) in an update or qc45 ii release. also gotta mention great review as always!
Great review brother, I just found your channel, subscribed and I’m looking forward to more content!
thank you so much for this honest review, it really helped solidify my decision; I really appreciate it!
Nice review. Thanks.
Right now QC45 and NC700 are around the same price. I am a big head grad student, what should I prefer?
Anyone know of a cable for the QC35/ 25's that had a USB c to 2.5 jack? Any info appreciated. Great video, the 35's mic was best imo.
My 35s stopped working, I called Bose and they said for 150$ I can get a new 45 . I think that a really good option for there costumers.
Lucky
Fantastic video
Thanks Bro!
Great review.. appreciate the mic test. 45 failed in my view. 700 was the winner in my eyes.
Wish you had covered two additional items:
1. 700 comes with a charging case.
2. 700 does NOT fold and needs to stay in its usable shape vs the 35 and the 45 that folds like the QC 25.
In your eyes? You're wearing them wrong 😂
45 keep it safe and stick with what people loved for years
@@Yorkie321 more like you cannot afford it poor guy
Excellent review!
I would love to see you testing Bang & Olufsen HX! Have you had a chance to use them? I'd like to buy either Bose 700 ANC or HX, do you think that sound quality is better in HX?
As far as mic is concerned, I can see that 700 ANC are great for phone calls and can isolate background noises. Do you know if HX are as good? Great job and beautiful quality of your videos, many thanks 😍
Hello I have not had a chance to test B&O HX
Great review! Do any of these allow changing the battery? I'm still using QC25 because there the headphones do not go bad once the battery life is bad.
Thanks man !
Quick question, I had trouble connecting on PC with the QC35 is it better with one of the other two ?
شرح راقي عاشت الايادي ❤️
fun fact, i thought the same thing with the 35s, for some reason if you have hair or even the slightest little thing between your ear/head and the earcups you get distortion: in other words you have to have a low to no hair with the 35s, i’ve tested this out for years cause every time i get a haircut the dude of my head is almost bald and i get no distortion, when my hair grows back the distortion come back. i first thought something was wrong i even sent them back to bose but then realized it was because i just simply had hair.

I Have bose 700 and Qc 35 II. Thay are amazing 👌
Does the sound leak in Max volume?
Wow thanks for putting out the comparison fast. Great video!
I was hoping the QC 45 will have a good awareness/transparency close to the AirPods max. Also the microphone is not that impressive if I’m hearing it right.
Nevertheless, awesome video. Well presented. More power!
yea, and you need to talk loud for it to pick uo enough volume. I've tested QC45 in a store.
