This is just as good as the QC15 which I love, and I wanted a pair in white so I got these (wired) to wear to Disneyland, to match my hat! The only caveat is, beware that you can pinch hair or finger or whatnot when pushing the headband into place; it's in two pieces, sort of, instead of one. It twists so as to be smaller when not in use. I wear QC almost 24/7 these days as I'm retired and like to listen to my books on tape. And Disneyland is now too loud for me to enjoy without a buffer!

The noise cancellation is SUPERB. Unfortunately though, these did not hold up well to my own testing and preferences. I compared them against a Bang and Olufsen H6, and tested them both side-by-side and simultaneously with my favorite songs and the electronic keyboard that I play with. The B&O sounded rich, if a little 'flat' (in a 'pure' way?). The Bose were a bit muffled and not as crisp when used without noise cancellation. With NC, they sounded better, but not equal to the B&O. I also ultimately decided I'm not a fan of the teal cable. At first it all adds up to a nice and unique color palette, but I also ended up preferring the professional silver and beige of the B&O.

These headphones are outstanding and compare very favorably to a similar model from Sony, the WH-1000XM2. The main difference is the Sony's have Bluetooth, but there are a few Bluetooth modules you can insert in the Bose headphones to get that feature. These are very comfortable with excellent noise canceling so music sounds top-notch.

I have used many Bose products over the years & these headphones lives up to expectations. The sound is very good and the noise cancelling is about the best. I bought these to replace some Audi Technica headphones. The earpads on the AT's were falling apart. A back to back comparison showed that the sound was better from Bose and the noise cancelling was noticeably superior. The weight was just as light or lighter and the Bose were much more compact when stored. I wanted the wired version (not the QC35 wireless) because these headphones will still work when the battery dies. It also uses a common AAA battery, so I don't have to worry about looking for an outlet to charge the battery, just swap out the dead battery and away you go. There may be other brands that sound better, for a lot more money, but trying to get service on them makes them pretty much a throwaway when they go bad. Bose has store fronts that offer some sense of customer support and a place to drop off/pick up repaired items. If the ear pads start falling apart, I can even replace them. Not so with other brands.Read full review

I have long wanted the legendary Bose Quiet Comfort 25 noise cancelling headphones. They have always had top reviews but I believe in making my own mind up... I noted the new QC35 wireless but they are double the price and I have noted some negative reviews sound quality intermittent buzzing noises etc. On our recent journey we found that prices of QC25 and QC35 in S E Asia, Australia China etc inc duty free were same as UK High St prices. Then we saw these on sale in US and I quickly ordered them. My friend has long had a pair of these and we put them thro some tests which they passed with flying colours. I was amazed at how effective they are I had expected that some unwanted background sounds would leak thro to my ears ie by-pass the headphones BUT NO They are compact also very comfortable and light All I can say is - give these a test run I am sure you will be amazed at their performance I do have other headsets KOSS tight and uncomfortable B&W (which have base and treble speakers in each housing with crossover) great sound in a quiet area Philips wireless the main thing about them is that they are wireless... The QC25 are the smallest headset I have very practical (with small zip case) for taking on a long journey. I wish I had them at the start of our little tripRead full review
