  • So I had the Bose 700. After several years of daily service in the gym, tube, trains, planes etc. they have died. Needless to say I was saddened by this. With little hope I contacted Bose regarding the issue. It took me less than a minute to have them confirm the issue and have a label issued for me to return them for a replacement. However they no longer make the 700s... so they are sending me the qc ultra instead. I mean A pair I bought for 200 pounds is being replaced for free for a brand new pair of 370 pound cans. In terms of customer service support warranties always choose Bose. My xm3s I had before died and Sony offered little support in comparison dance why I ended up buying a pair of the 700s. If you're buying a pair to last a long time. Then id say trust in Bose as they will do right by you.

    So straightforward!!! Never seen these kinds of channels yet. Feels like different world altogether. Sadly I don't consume these content everyday. Why can't most channels be like these guys. I might not watch you guys regularly but I wish you guys all the best. Because you're great!
  • Thanks for another stellar review. I ended up pre-ordering the QC Ultra and given I’ve got a transcontinental flight in two weeks and there’s a landscaping crew energetically demonstrating that they’re earning their fee outside right now, I’m happy with my purchase.

    Every now again I need to compare headphones, I come to this channel, And I'm always delighted, you guys are so funny but also are so good at getting the details, thank you!!!
  • @Dash_Champ
    Thank you so much!! This really sealed the deal for me. I love hearing multiple perspectives in one video, I have never seen a channel do that before.
  • @GadZookz
    Thanks guys! Got the Ultra for ANC and aptx lossless and it delivers on both counts. ANC is the best I’ve heard on any device yet.
  • I donno why, but you guys have a very chill vibe on presenting a comparison on those 2 products 🐻❤That calms a lot
  • Hi, great video. My main concern to choose is sound leakage. It is important to consider. How is it with those?
  • @maksymfrost8846
    Hey there! Great job, thanks for your videos! Could you tell me please which one of them more suits for audiobooks and podcasts, I mean where are voices more natural and pleasant? Actually I already got Bose qs ultra and find them quite good for listening audiobooks but still I can change them if Sennheisers make the job with voices better than Bose. Or maybe there is better headphones for my purpose?Thanks in advance.
  • Guys, this is first time I am watching your video, and its great I really love it, really detailed review on both of the headphones ! Keep up the good work!
  • @Deareck
