I check out the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones and compare them with the Apple Airpods Pro Max in this ultimate flagship headphone comparison.
If you’re deep in the Apple ecosystem and automatically bought the AirPods, you could be missing out in a big way! I compare the Bose QuietComfort Ultra with the Airpods Pro Max in 4 key areas: sound quality, noise cancellation, transparency, and features.

@@PeteMatheson Because 99% of people won’t drop $400 on a pair of headphones? Most flagship phones are ridiculously powerful, when most people who buy them won’t even use its full power. If you’re making high end, expensive headphones, then you should at least be able to provide features that can be expected at that price.

@Pistolita221
@Pistolita221 4 місяці тому
Apple had a more clinical sound, colder. The bose had less detail but were warmer, which is more pleasing to the ear. It's a fine line keeping detail and warmth, because overly cold music is tinny, and has poor decay. Being cold is a form of distortion, like overly warm music, but coldness is less pleasing to the ear. I have hifiman he400i's, and they're GREAT headphones. Comparable to Sennheiser, but warmer and with more base. So a more pleasing sound with the same level of detail as HD600's, maybe more (because the hifiman's drivers have more base, more precise base, and warmer base, but the mids might be better on the HD600's, or maybe they're just more pronounced).

My primary complaint with the Bose is when you have them paired two multiple devices. You will get occasional stops in the primary content your listening too when the other device wakes up or gets a notification. I would prefer if there was a way to eliminate these interruptions. Right now I turn disconnect the secondary device.

I had the Bose QC25, QC35, and the beautiful 700 series in rose gold, and I was incredibly skeptical of the Max headphones as I wasn’t particularly impressed by the normal AirPods and AirPod Pros, but I preordered them to try them out…I was shocked by the build quality, and also by the clarity and separation of instruments, which is incredibly important to me as I’m someone who listens to Rachmaninov, and Tim Henson. This, combined with the seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem (which I’m immersed in) made them my primary overhead headphones.

I’ve been using Quiet Comfort headphones since 2005. The first time I put a set on, I heard things in my favorite music that I had never heard before. I think I paid almost $300 for them at the time, which was an enormous amount for young me. But it was one of the best purchases I ever made. I literally wore those headphones completely out. Later, I’ve been wondering about getting some really expensive headphones. What am I missing?

As someone with a massive head, the biggest draw for me to the Airpods Max is the comfort. I previously owned the Bose NC700 and they would hurt after about 2 hours. It was a pleasant surprise that the Airpods have a better sound. IMO the only area that the Bose comes out on top is the noise cancellation.

I don’t need to reach for any devices - they just work :) Both terrific headphones.

Just bought the QC Ultra's to upgrade from the 700's and had to return them. There was a kind of plastic on plastic click coming from the left earcup when I moved my head, but I couldn't place it, even after watching a few videos and opening them up. I swapped them for another pair and they had it too. It drove me nuts. It might be the quality control on those two pairs, or it might be a manufacturing issue, but I couldn't get past it. The noise canceling and sound quality were great though. Just something to think about for everyone out there.

I left Bose headphones due to build quality which was not discussed here. My last QuietComforts I had to replace the ear pads once per year as the seam would tear. And you have to buy direct replacements from Bose at over $40 as off brands were not the same sound when used. I was paying a $40 tax annually to use those headphones. The ear pads on Apple are just plain more long term planned with their material choice. Sound wise, I think Apple is due a new model in the next year for better tech and USB-C. I’ll still go Apple, but right now I’m not leaving these for Bose Ultra.

But if you want a fat or rounded sound you can use one of the EQ presets (is why I use the rock preset most of the time) The Bose EQ's ok too but to me just doesn't have the separation the Max's do.

The bit about the battery was pretty disingenuous. The Maxs will indeed automatically put themselves into their sleep state without the case after a short period. I find it crazy we’re comparing Bose’s latest and greatest to Apple's Airpod Max which was released in 2020, and somehow Apple still holds its own? Preety impressive. Reportedly there is a new AirPod Max coming this year, with USB-C (finally), along with other approvements. I wonder if the new one will still hold its own to the 2028 Bose Ultra II :P I own the previous Bose headset and Apples. I don't like the weight of the Max’s, I'll probably buy the Ultra tomorrow 😄

Nice review but not sure why your review is biased towards Max pro headphones as Bose Ultra sounds way better

Certainly not biased. I personally prefer the Bose, if not because of apples stupid purse case alone!

@@PeteMatheson I think people are preferring the warmth of the Bose to the cold detail of the Apple, but imo it would be great to hear the qualcomm enabled audio vs the regular audio, to see if that makes a difference for some people with enabled devices, or if it's a gimmick. Personally, I consider the coldness of the apple to be a form of distortion, and it's better to be warm than cold with consumer audio, which BT audio is.

Im just a regular headphone user who don’t care about specific features…I’m just belong to an apple ecosystem who can afford to buy IPhone AirPods Max Apple Watch Ultra all together…it will give me confidence because of top notch sound quality,comfort,iconic design and a eye catching if you have one!….other brand RIP…..

I heard the air. Max is going to be releasing a new version here in the coming months.

I’ve yet to see any over ear headphones beat AirPods Max on sound quality. Every other feature wise you can find better options.

B&W PX8 or Mark Levison 5909., try these but they are not the best noise cancellers. AirPods are still the best compromise:)

@@dariuszwojcik1601 That's apple's thing, the best compromise. You don't have to worry, everything is adequate or better. Not a very 'silicon valley ethos' for a tech company, but it's clearly working for them. If you have a specific function you need done the best, you probably won't get an apple product, unless you're doing media production.

And we're talking about a headset which was released in 2020! It's crazy. Apple will update them this year. I wonder if we’ll be comparing a new release in 2028 from bose to them :p

I know headphones are all about the sound, but the looks are important too... they take up a big section of your head. Bose just never had inspiring design in this department. Apple's design is weird, but it is iconic and memorable

Bought the Qc ultra and sold it in a couple of days, the sound is so flat even with the Eq settings. My Sony XM 3 did a better job.
