Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen)
ANC, 6 h, WirelessProduct details
When music is everything, every track deserves perfect sound. With personalised sound, the best Bose in-ear noise-cancelling and outstanding Bluetooth comfort, you'll experience every moment more intensely. CustomTune technology analyses your ears and adapts the sound of your in-ear headphones precisely to their shape. The result: first-class noise cancelling and individual sound for goosebumps with every song. The best noise-cancelling ever in Bose earbuds is now even better. ActiveSense technology cancels out noise peaks in the surround sound - so you won't be distracted by anything, even in Aware mode.
Quiet mode gives you full noise cancellation. In Aware mode, you can hear your surroundings crystal clear. Immersion mode combines noise-cancelling with Bose 360-degree sound for the most realistic listening experience. Bose 360-degree sound projects the sound from your head outwards - beyond your Bluetooth earbuds. The result: a listening experience like being in the acoustic sweet spot, just as the artists intended. Choose the best fit for your earbuds from nine combinations of ear inserts and stability bands - for a secure fit and high wearing comfort. The soft, umbrella-shaped inserts reduce external noise, while the stability bands keep everything in place. Noise-cancelling microphones and AI-powered noise cancellation eliminate ambient and wind noise for undisturbed conversations. Make calls with both or just one wireless earbud - it's up to you.
