Bose Updates All QuietComfort ANC Headphones and Earbuds

In a subdued and terribly timed announcement - more than one week after the closing of the largest consumer electronics show, and hitting right on Apple iPhone launch week - Bose unveiled a complete refresh of its iconic QuietComfort active noise cancellation headphones and earbuds. The new QuietComfort Ultra Headphones, QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, and the QuietComfort Headphones, are three completely updated iterations of the brand's leading products.

As anticipated, Bose announced its new Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II. As the brand that brought us noise cancelling headphones as a consumer product, this announcement is extremely important for the Massachusetts-company, as it claims to offer "the world’s best noise cancellation," thanks to its CustomTune sound calibration technology that allows personalized performance. The design is also refined and much more elegant than any previous Bose product in the category.

The pioneer in noise cancelling, Bose introduced the new QuietComfort Earbuds, delivering what the company claims is the "quiet" of Bose around-ear noise cancelling headphones in an in-ear design. For the QuietComfort Earbuds, Bose developed an entirely new platform with proprietary processing and algorithms. Bose also introduced the new Sport Earbuds — entirely re-engineered to produce improved sound from smaller, slimmer enclosures that stay securely in place, without causing pain, pressure, or needing ear hooks.
