For a long time, BOSE has been crowned the title of “King of ANC”, and recently launched a new noise canceling headset Bose QUIETCOMFORT II noise canceling earplugs. After all, this earphone not only performs well in active noise reduction, but also What distinguishes this headphone flagship product in the market? In this article, we will conduct a simple rating of this headset so that everyone can learn more about the features of this headset. Read below!

first time using
QUIETCOMFORT Noise Canceling Earbuds II are the first to use Custom Tune intelligent in-ear sound field adjustment technology, which turns on automatically when the earphones are removed and put on. You can hear a specific sound effect from Bose. At the same time, the built-in microphone will also measure the reflection of the sound effect on the ear canal. It can be completed in 0.5 seconds.
In addition, CustomTune technology also tailors and optimizes audio distribution for each person’s unique ear canal structure, making the sound delivered to the eardrum more vivid, detailed and clear. In order to provide a more powerful noise canceling effect, CustomTune intelligent in-ear sound field adjustment technology can also automatically adjust the noise canceling signal transmitted to the ear to improve the noise canceling experience, in especially for noise frequencies that were difficult to eliminate in the past, such as human voices in the foreground, children’s crying on the bus, etc., it can also instantly perceive the changes of noise in the user’s surrounding environment, and always keep a strong noise canceling performance.
In addition to providing customized intelligent tuning, CustomTune technology can also cooperate with ActiveSense dynamic noise sensing technology to enhance the effect of transparent mode. In transparency mode, the surrounding sound is clearer to the ear. When there is strong noise interference around, ActiveSense dynamic noise sensing technology can provide a customized noise canceling effect suitable for the user’s hearing experience, cancel noise immediately when noise appears, and automatically stop when the noise ends.
actual use
Most of the above is from the official introduction of outlets and some connection programs for the first time, and even the moderators have been using this headset for a while. How is the experience in daily life?
Scenario (1): Driving a car or walking on the street
Bose QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II can be hailed as the “King of ANC” and I believe it cannot be ignored in terms of noise reduction performance. I remember once when I was driving a car, because it was too late in the evening, I really wanted to relax quietly, so when I got into the car, I took out my BOSE QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II and when I put them on my ears, I heard a sound of unique request, the headset reads the remaining battery capacity, then automatically activates the ANC noise reduction function and immediately the whole person is isolated from the world as if they were in no man’s land. After getting out of the car, the same is true when you hit the road, entering a state of ecstasy, but it’s best to wear headphones and pay more attention to the road environment when crossing the road. Even if a strong noise reduction it’s good, but when you walk down the street, it’s also careful.
Scenario (2): Stop and listen to music
The moderator usually plays basketball on the street during the holidays. There is no one to argue with. When he plays alone, he practices shooting. By wearing the Bose QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II, listening to songs and exercising, I feel more motivated and less prone to fatigue. The QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II support IPX4 waterproof and sweatproof, and I tested it. If I use the noise canceling mode to listen to the song, I can’t even hear the sound of myself slapping a basketball, which makes me fully integrated into the music In the world, will not be disturbed by external sounds.
Scenario (3): Listening to music
The moderator has money for Apple Music and usually wears Bose QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II to listen to songs. I think the sound is clear enough. Sounds like a singer singing in your ears. It sounds like you are listening to a concert. , and the bass and treble are clearly layered, and the listening experience is quite good.
Scenario (4): Clubhouse for programs
We usually share recent anecdotes and interesting topics in the world of technology at Clubhouse two days a week, and I usually use wired headphones to do shows, and today I wear Bose QUIETCOMFORT Earbuds II to do shows and test the headphones radio from the Performance mode. In fact, the performance of the radio is quite clear, if it is just an ordinary radio, it doesn’t matter, but if it is used as a podcast program, it is not suitable, because the bluetooth earphones will always have a mechanical sound, which is clear but obvious Not very natural.

Scenario (5): Download the phone
In fact, the actual effect is similar to that of Clubhouse. When asked whether the other side is clear, the other side said it is clear, but it is more convenient to use wired headphones. While most of today’s Bluetooth headsets perform well in terms of sound quality for listening to music, there is still a lot of room for improvement in radio performance.
summary
I have been using Bose QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II for a while. In fact, this is my first time using Bose noise canceling headphones. But after using it, I really understand why it can be called the “King of ANC” because of its noise canceling ability, it is not comparable to other brands of headphones, at least I would think, compared to Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones from home mine (although it is the fifth generation, the third generation is enough in most cases), the noise reduction effect is more obvious, it is actually not a comparison, no harm. As for the sound quality of the Bose QUIETCOMFORT EarBuds II, I too think they are quite good. Besides being clear, the treble and bass levels are also quite distinct. The MSRP in Hong Kong is set at $2299, which I think is a pretty reasonable price. What do netizens think of Bose headphones?
