Reviews around money (5.00 of 5)

  • Definitely worth the money and extremely happy with my purchase.
  • Moral of the story, don't waste your money on the 20's, pay the extra amount for the 30s.

Reviews around job (4.49 of 5)

  • They do a great job of cancelling out the very loud road noise from the dual-sport/dirt bike tires I use.
  • They do a good job of cutting out the background noise on flights and in the office
  • But the QC20s do such a good job cancelling out environmental noise that you completely lose track of your environment; I found myself easily startled by nearby movements
  • I see no way around this with noise cancelling headphones, and Bose has done as good a job as can be expected
  • great job on noise cancelling, and the fit very comfortably in teh ear.

Reviews around product (3.99 of 5)

  • Would be a great product if it didn't crap out immediately.
  • Not as quiet as I had hoped for, but good product overall.
  • The product is very durable and the sound quality is great
  • Even though the pros may outweigh the cons for the QuietComfort20, there are two major issues concerning the product that I need to point out; the price, and the durability
  • Truly great product that as of now I cannot imagine living without.

Reviews around bass (3.83 of 5)

  • and it's so nice that it seem like you can fell the bass.
  • Very comfortable and the noise=reduction capability is a s good as my older Bose over-ear pair.
  • Bass is not overemphasized and mid-range sounds un-strained
  • Very comfortable and the noise=reduction capability is a s good as my older Bose over-ear pair.
  • BUT.....these have the typical TriPort muffled sound (exaggerated non-tight bass, almost no highs, decent mids)...which really destroys the listening experience

Reviews around cancel (3.78 of 5)

  • I was hoping to get the sound isolation of in hear headphones but just amplify the effect with noise cancelling, but the earbuds don't make a proper seal so in conjunction with the strange cancelling, you can still hear quite a lot.-the actually battery device is very closely connected to the jack
  • Prior to wearing these, I'd never listened to noise canceling headphones
  • Buy these only if you prefer noise cancelling over quality.
  • Pros- Great noise canceling: definitely points here because the noise canceling on these is amazing, even with no music
  • The more I use them the more I love the noise canceling

Reviews around sound (3.51 of 5)

  • Or, you can try an over-the-ear passive sound reducing ear muff for construction and gun firing and then use either a regular (i.e. non-noise reducing earbud) or a noise reducing earbud for music.
  • They seemed be best for low repetitive sounds like, planes or trains.
  • The sound is great, and they cancel out and block more noise than their over-ear counterparts
  • As far as sound and noise cancelling it works as it is supposed to be.
  • Terrific sound just like I expect from Bose and superior noise canceling

Reviews around ear (3.51 of 5)

  • amazing noise cencelling, I can now hear music everywhere without hurting my ears
  • They are true noise cancelling ear buds, amazing for flying and tuning out people at the gym
  • you - they didn't hurt, but my ears definitely wanted a break from them
  • The drums are so snappy they sounded terrible and hurt my ears
  • The noise cancelling works wonders, but the right ear speaker died within two weeks of daily use

Reviews around noise (3.05 of 5)

  • It's not like noise isolating headphones that jam deep into your ear and simply block out all sound.
  • They do a great job of cancelling out the very loud road noise from the dual-sport/dirt bike tires I use.
  • These are really nice the noise canceling works great, and they are very comfortable.
  • Very good, but not great, noise cancelling on airplanes (my primary use).
  • These do not work well in turbulent air, which seems to confuse the noise cancellation, causing them to produce very loud popping noises.

Reviews around earbuds (3.00 of 5)

  • I was suspicious that the noise canceling would be weak without the headphone cushions, but it's very effective, and the smaller earbuds are much easier for travel than the headphones.
  • I fly 14 hr transpacific nonstop flights 6-8 times per year so effective noise cancelling earbuds are really important to me.
  • These are hands-down the absolute BEST BEST BEST earbuds for travelers
  • She bought some cheap noise cancelling earbuds and they didn't really work
  • None of the cheaper earbuds come remotely close to the noise cancelling effectiveness of the QC20's.

Reviews around headphone (2.99 of 5)

  • By far, EXTREMELY FAR, the best headphones I've ever had
  • I see no way around this with noise cancelling headphones, and Bose has done as good a job as can be expected
  • The sound quality and noise cancelling were even better than my old Bose over the ear noise cancelling headphones
  • I bought these for the convenience of the smaller size for travelling and for wanting the same performance as my "over-ear" noise cancelling headphones from Bose.
  • These are probably the best headphones I've ever purchased

Reviews around cable (1.54 of 5)

  • The cable where the plug meets your device to the switch is so flimsy.
  • By that I mean in short time, the rubber is gonna crack and the cable starts to break
  • The cable will likely break so it's more expensive not to get a warranty in some cases
  • My only complain is the short cable from the battery/control fob to the audio plug end.- three inches is a bit awkward at times.
  • so i tried a couple other under $100 earbuds with active noise cancellation but found none worked nearly as well as my old over-the-ear qc15's

Reviews around environment (1.26 of 5)

  • Noise cancelling definitely works when turned on and is superb for moderately noisy working environments.
  • I work in a noisy office environment and these are a god-send
  • The overall experience in a noisy building environment is similar to what I have wearing my Lightspeed Zulu 3 headsets - and that's saying a lot
  • These do as well as the V-Moda, plus they are noise cancelling
  • Are you in a loud and busy environment and need to focus

Reviews around office (1.00 of 5)

  • I bought a pair off recommendation from a coworker for use in our noisy office
  • I work in a noisy office environment and these are a god-send
  • I cannot believe how much of a difference these headphones make in a noisy office or airplane
  • They have traveled over 100,000 miles with me on airplanes, and I use them often in a noisy open-plan office with or without music to create a low-noise bubble if I need to concentrate.
  • With these on and connected to your phone you can hold a fine business conversation whether you are in a noisy office, walking along a busy street, waiting for a plane in an airport or even cycling to work!
