Bose QuietComfort Ultra review: The best ANC earbuds you can get

As long as you’re willing to try something different (and spend a little more), I can’t recommend these earbuds enough

The microphones did a good job of making it seem like I wasn’t wearing earbuds at all, and having conversations through transparency mode was effortless since I could hear the person speaking to me so easily. When the QC Ultra earbuds originally launched, Bose didn’t include an option for multi-point Bluetooth connections, so you couldn’t pair them to your phone and laptop at the same time. I’ve run around Nashville and NYC, spoken to a million people, eaten some good lunches, and chewed a lot of gum with these buds to see if they’d fall out, and they never did.
