Bose might not have changed much on the new QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, but what it did change makes all the difference.
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds MSRP $299.00 Score Details DT Recommended Product “if you’re keen to try spatial audio, the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are a great companion.” Pros Cons I’m not gonna lie: It’s a little weird when a company like Bose trots out a new set of wireless earbuds like the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds barely one year after it introduced its last set — 2022’s QuietComfort Earbuds II . After all, wireless earbuds aren’t like smartphones.
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds: design The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds and QCE II are almost identical from a design standpoint. That’s a very good thing. Though not quite as small and sleek as the Apple AirPods Pro, the Ultra look great, whether in black or in white. Bose has given the Ultra a fresh coat of paint — literally — a new metallic layer adorns the main touch control surface, giving the buds a decidedly upscale look.
I still prefer physical buttons to touch controls. But as touch controls go, the QC Ultra are very good. Taps and swipes were almost always registered, and I’m a big fan of the swiping gesture used to control volume. To me, it’s the most convenient and accurate way to do volume changes on a set of earbuds.
First, let’s discuss those Snapdragon Sound aptX codecs. The QCE II were limited to SBC and AAC codecs, which are lossy and thus just fine for listening to Spotify, but not a great choice when trying to hear the extra detail in a CD quality or hi-res lossless track from Apple Music or Amazon Music. With aptX Adaptive you can get far greater fidelity. It’s not theoretical.
From a conceptual point of view, Bose isn’t doing anything new here. Just like Jabra’s Elite 10, Apple’s AirPods Pro, and the LG Tone Free T90Q, Bose uses software to simulate what it sounds like to listen to your music as though it were coming from large speakers in your room as opposed to tiny speakers wedged in your ears. It then uses gyroscope sensors to offer you an added level of realism by fixing those speakers in space relative to your head position.
The same isn’t quite as true for transparency mode. As good as the QC Ultra are , the AirPods Pro are still the reference, with an uncanny ability to just disappear when you engage transparency mode.
