Bose QuietComfort Headphones, Bluetooth Over Ear Noise Cancelling Headphones, Sandstone

I have an old pair of Bose over ear wired headphones, and they always blew me away with the sound quality right across the eq spectrum. They set a really high bar. I have judged all other headphones against them since. When the time finally came to replace them I only looked at Bose products, and being short of disposable income opted for the most budget friendly offering, the quiet comfort SC. Before purchase I learned that the SC just means you only get a soft case, but the headphones are the same product. The unboxing was pleasing, as was the setup. Bluetooth connection is easy and the Bose app allows for easy adjustment of the noise cancelling, which I'm impressed with. I've never had noise cancellation before, and these headphones allow for letting ambient sound in, or electronically cancelling it out, which are both useful in different environments. Build quality, fit, feel and comfort are all really good. Sound quality is really decent. It doesn't blow me away, but it's very good. I spent several hours listening to music on them and enjoyed constantly hearing details in my favourite music that I'd never heard before. I haven't listened to any of the competitors products so can't give a fully qualified opinion on these( but I'm not disappointed. May also be worth mentioning that the headphones come with a Jack to Jack cable should you want to plug them in to your device. Probably unlikely that anyone will plug into much in this day and age, but great to see that all requirements are catered for 👍🏻
