Our take on the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Wireless Over-the-Ear Headphones
The Bose QuietComfort Ultra are wireless over-ear headphones with Bose's strongest noise cancellation and a spatial audio mode called Immersive Audio. They fold flat, run about 24 hours per charge, and take a USB-C cable for wired listening. Against the Sony WH-1000XM5 and Apple AirPods Max, they cancel noise about as well and sound fuller than earlier Bose models, but they cost more than the standard QuietComfort line and the spatial mode cuts battery life. They suit frequent flyers, commuters and office workers who want quiet and comfort for long stretches.
- Top-tier active noise cancellation, especially on low engine and fan noise
- Immersive Audio spatial mode widens the soundstage
- Soft ear cushions and light clamping force for long wear
- Folds flat and ships with a hard case
- Up to about 24 hours of battery, with a quick-charge top-up
- USB-C wired listening and multipoint pairing

Questions and answers
- How is this different from the standard Bose QuietComfort headphones?
- The Ultra adds Immersive Audio spatial sound and a slightly more refined noise-cancelling system. The standard QuietComfort keeps longer battery life and a lower price.
- How long does the battery last?
- Bose rates it at about 24 hours with Immersive Audio off. With the spatial mode on, expect closer to 18 hours.
- Can I use them wired?
- Yes. A USB-C cable allows wired listening, and a 2.5mm-to-3.5mm cable is included for analog use.
- Do they work with more than one device at once?
- Yes, multipoint pairing lets them stay connected to two devices, such as a laptop and a phone, and switch between them.
- Are they good for calls?
- The built-in microphones handle calls and meetings well in quiet rooms. In strong wind or traffic, callers notice background noise.
- What comes in the box?
- The headphones, a hard carrying case, a USB-C charging cable and a 3.5mm audio cable.
