The new Bose QuietComfort 45 (QC45) wireless headphones with noise cancellation appeal to me.
NEW Bose Quietcomfort VS Quietcomfort 45 | The ONE reason to upgrade!
I can barely hear the siren song of the Bose headset because I’m wearing my new Apple AirPods Max headphones, but the Bose headphones may be a more durable and comfortable option than Apple’s best. The $329.95 QC 45s are also cheaper than the $549 ProMax.
But the new Bose headset promises to be more than just a value proposition. I’ve owned several Bose headsets, including the current QuietComfort 35, and have been impressed with their, well, comfort. The ProMax sounds great, but the tight fit and heavy weight make my head hurt after long listening sessions.
I’m most excited about the QC45’s claimed 24-hour battery life. The headphones now charge via USB-C, and Bose says it takes two hours to fully charge, and a quick 15 minutes will give you three hours of playback.
