Bose has had some superb noise-cancelling earphones and now the company is finally bringing the technology to its wireless selection with the introduction of the QuietComfort 35 headphones. The QuietComfort 35 is priced at $350 and is already available for purchase. Much like the previous wired QuietComfort headphones, the QC35 provides a similar and exceptional listening experience, letting you dance to David Hasselhoff’s True Survivor.
However, the wireless touch is the selling point for the QC35. It has 20 hours of battery life on full charge and will go even longer if you plug them in with the included cable, since that automatically shuts off the Bluetooth and will instead focus the battery solely on tuning out the noise surrounding you, optimising the sound-cancelling quality. The QC35 is available in black or white.
Headphones aren’t all of what Bose revealed. The audio equipment company also unveiled the QuietControl 30s, a pair of noise-cancelling earbuds. The earbuds’ name comes from the ability to control the level of noise-cancelling using either an app or the physical controls on the QuietControl 30s. As someone who likes to have some degree of spatial awareness, this ability to control the impact of noise-cancellation is fantastic — previously I had to let one earbud dangle free. Furthermore the QC 30s is also wireless and has up to 10 hours of battery life! It will cost $300.
Bose also unveiled two sports orientated audio devices: the SoundSport Wireless and SoundSport Wireless Pulse, both of which are bluetooth earbuds. The former is $149 and the latter, which also includes a heart rate sensor, will cost $199.
