    Hi everyone, I had a question during an outdoor sports or cycling session, do the headphones handle wind noise well? Do the ANC microphones saturate or does the active noise reduction still work very well even in windy conditions?

  • @onolicious5777
    @onolicious5777 Před 7 měsíci +5

    I was set to buy these based on sound quality and ANC...until I read about the connectivity issues and lack of multipoint connection. Hopefully this will get sorted with a firmware update. But lack of multipoint is a no go. Also, they need to have magsafe charging on the case. Until then, I'm moving them from my cart to my "saved for later."

    • @JuliusTurner-hm6ff

    I have both. I prefer the sound profile of the Bose but for ANC and comfort, I prefer the Apple AirPod Pro 2. The Bose ANC hiss is really noticeable which was disappointing.

    • @JuliusTurner-hm6ff
      @JuliusTurner-hm6ff Před 3 měsíci +1

      I agree but ironically the Bose QC 2 has better ANC than them all. Seem like the Ultra traded ANC for better sound quality. if you're a music person get the Ultras. If you're a podcast person, then airpods or QC 2 are the better option.

    Nice review. We all have different ears, for me the Ultra's stay in my ears better. Also I really like the immersive sound for my music on the Ultras. However, if you are using earbuds mostly for movies on an Apple TV the airpods might be a better option.

    Just got the bose and they hurt my ears immediately after putting in ear. I guess my ears are too small and I tried all of the fittings. Would the airpods pro 2 be better in this case? Like normal $20 earbuds feel so much better in my ear. I really just want ANC for low frequency vehicle noise.

    I get that Bose has the better audio, but is it almost 60% better? trying to figure out if it's worth $299 when the AirPods Pro 2 is $189.

  • @burkystonks
    @burkystonks Před 2 měsíci +2

    My experience with both earphones, here are my winners per category:
    ANC: Bose
    Transparency: Apple
    Microphone: Apple
    Comfort/Fit: Bose
    Sound Quality: Bose
    Spatial Audio: Bose
    Seamless connection: Apple
    Customization: Bose
    Overall, I like the Bose QC ultra better cos it gives better Bass sounds for something so small. Im an Apple user with full apple eco system, one of the reasons why I went for bose is also because the Airpods pro wont stay in my ear for too long (I have to constantly fix it on my ear after a couple of times after long use), and the ear fit test tells me the airpods are not properly sealed.
    Still keeping my Airpods pro for occasional use, but Bose QC Ultras take the win for me

    I have both of these and I like the Bose better in every way except the Bose does not support multipoint and the AirPods Pro USB-C does. Big miss for Bose and at $50 more than the AirPods. I can’t keep the AirPods in my ears and I can’t shake the Bose out and I’ve tried.

    @BenAfia Před 7 měsíci +1

    Great review Pete, thanks 😊 I mostly listen to voice and calls so I’m guessing the AirPods are best. Also I carry them song the house in my pocket most of the time so the smaller case is a big bonus.

    • @PeteMatheson
      @PeteMatheson  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Thanks Ben! (Good to see you here in the comments btw dude!)
      Yep, best stick with the Airpods for lots of calls, and the size of the case like you said.
      Bose has the better overall sound quality though.

  • @YoZasuke
    @YoZasuke Před 7 měsíci +1

    Honestly the one big flaw of the bose for me is the size of the case. Its also the reason I switched to the airpods. I couldnt fit the bose case comfortably in my pocket.
    Another flaw was the connenctivity. 1 out of 5 times one or both of the buds didnt connect to my phone and I had to reinsert them in the case and take them out again.
    Fit and sound was great tho and the anc was way better than the airpods.
    But the bose are definitely are less convient and for me this is the most important part of an earbud.

      @PeteMatheson  Před 7 měsíci +2

      Airpods don't support Lossless Audio.
      Taken from Apple's website:
      "You can listen to lossless on an iPhone or iPad updated to the latest version of iOS or iPadOS using:
      A wired connection to headphones, receivers, or powered speakers
      The built-in speakers
      To listen to songs at sample rates higher than 48 kHz, you need an external digital-to-analog converter."

    Bose needs:
    1. Bluetooth device switching
    2. Improved call quality.
    If a firmware upgrade can accomplish both, they are golden. From what i hear the dual pairing is already under development. Don't know if the mic situation can be addressed with just software.
    Those are both really big deals and should be expected at this price point.

  • @jamesg7456

    I have both and prefer apple. I want to return the Bose because there isnt a passive noise cancellation mode. Turning off anc, the Bose defaults to awareness mode with activesense, Even though I’ve turned off awareness and activesense. The Bose immersion audio is a joke. Sounds like listening to music in the bathroom
