QuietComfort Ultra

I've been in a dilemma since last year after getting dissatisfied with the sound quality on my Soundcore Q30s. I kept swapping between AirPods Pro 2 and Galaxy Buds (I use a Samsung S23 Plus), but I have small ears and they always left me fatigued after long hours of calls and work.

So I decided to

I have been wanting to upgrade my pair of earbuds and i initially was choosing between sony xm6 and bose qc ultra. After testing both in store, it was clear that sony’s headphone was slightly better but it doesn’t justify the price difference between xm6 and a discounted qc ultra.

I’ve had the gen 1 QC earbuds since early 2021 and the QC Ultra headphones caught my interest a few months back especially since I’ve been traveling more in recent years. Decided to buy one late July as a gift for myself from a local distributor but the unit was defective so decided not to get a rep

Have been lots of issues with the Bose quiet comfort ultra headphones too I’ve been noticing. It’s generally a good product but with the glitches and things not working as they should etc, start to wonder why I’m paying so much. Particularly with connectivity issues.

I’ve recently purchased and tested both the XM6 and Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2, and here is my brief review:

1. Sound Quality: Slight edge to the QC Ultra 2, sound feels slightly fuller with a slightly wider soundstage, even after EQ on the XM6. Again, the difference is slight, and hard to notice.

2. ANC

Gen 1 QC Ultra $149.97 at Costo. September 30th is the last day to get the $50 giftcard. I got them just in time.
