The Bose Headphones 700 UC works well with Android-phone and MS teams with PC link dongle but, it has issues working with reading programs like Read&Write or WordQ. When you select on-screen words to read, and select the read button, it will skip the first 2 to 3 words before the audio plays in the headset. Once the audio starts playing, it is in sync with the screen; you just never hear the first 2 to 3 words. This issue makes it impossible to have reading applications read single words. Hopefully, Bose will be able to fix this issue with firmware updates. ... More

I had high expectations with these due to being Bose and they've not failed to deliver. They are very comfortable to wear, I love that I can amend the noise cancellation level on them as well. They come well presented and have a protective casing when not in use, so simple and easy to use, swipe down to turn volume down, swipe up to turn it back up, skip forward by flicking foward and likewise with going back. Taking calls on these is so clear for both you and them, I highly recommend these.

feel really sturdy and look expensive, they come in a sleek leather look zip up case which has a handy magnetic section to keep the wires tidy! noise cancellation on these headphones is outstanding, whether your listening to music or not! Swipe gestures & voice assistant v responsive But just miss the mark,I like to hear the bass in a song, and these just don’t quite deliver. The Bose app is very straightforward & set up was easy, some tweaks and these would be perfect, but fall just short

Fab headphones. The quality of the sound is absolutely great. I am comparing them to the Marshall III and while the sound in both is great, the Bose are excelling with deeper bass. The noise cancelling is supreme - with blasted sound when someone talks to me it's like in silent movie, I can see them, but not hear them. The Alexa is fantastic addition too. The only downside is the volume is somewhat limited, but apparently this can be overridden in the settings and full battery charge.

Great headphones to replace Beats studio. Better noise cancelling along with easy control. Comfort is great and battery life good. Bug with charging notification, never turns solid green when charged and doesn't update duration until turned off and on. Better if you could charge and use like Beats. Bluetooth connects to Samsung phone very easily but am having great difficulty connecting to laptop, connection keeps drops out. Overall, in use, they are great

-USB dongle is poor quality, sound quality is unusable. -Capacitive touch is always on, so if you have to adjust the right earcup, you skip tracks, pause or something else randomly. -Included 3.5 - 2.5 converter wire interferes with normal operation of the buttons. - Only included physical buttons are Noise cancel, Bluetooth and Smart device the third of which is useless for most users. - Bluetooth from a non-Bose device works fine, but that is the ONLY functionality on this device that works properly.

I use these headphones to watch movies on long plane rides and they deliver for me. The sound can be equalized with the app and the increase in sound quality over 35 ii is noticeable. The noise cancellation is slightly better too. I find them very comfortable after a number of hours use. Still trying to get used to multi function controls on ear cups. The only downside was when I first tried to charge I got a warning light. Called support and they talked me through updating software and solved the problem. So for this use I wholeheartedly recommend them. ... More

Bought this a week ago, the sound quality is amazing I can't hear anything from my background. They are comfy, which is saying something as most things hurt my ears. My hair does get a bit caught on it though and I feel as though the battery could really go a bit further. The Bose app for connecting isn't difficult at all. Had a couple phone calls that were a great success, the noise cancellation is adjustable- it seems to be a case of adjustment of the bass . The volume isn't so easy to adjust so I stick to using my phone for that. I can't stress how good the sound quality is :) ... More

These headphones are expensive but they are great quality and sound superb. They are really comfortable and they have adjustable sound isolation so you can block out external sounds completely hear external sounds or something between the two extremes. They work brilliantly and are the best headphones I’ve ever owned.

I had the Sony 1000MX3 but they got damaged while charging so I needed to replace them. So I'm In a good position to compare both headphones This is just my opinion NC is much better on Sony, I sometimes wonder if it's even working on the bose head phones Sound Quality is similar, bose slightly better Phone function Better on bose Build quality is better on the MX3 In summary the bose look a bit cooler bit they are more expensive then the nc is much less superior

Definitely the best headphones I've ever had, the sound quality is brilliant, cancels all noise out, absolute bliss. Very stylish and sleek and comes in a lovely case with magnetic bits to keep wires neat and tidy. Very easy to use and doesn't feel bulky while wearing it. Very efficient and easy to use just by tapping the side of the headphones. Definitely recommend, my first Bose product and my favourite headphones!

The Bose NC 700 headphones are absolutely amazing in terms of their main function. While the sound quality isn’t anything to be blown away by, the mix of NC and music really does drown out everything around you and you’ll hear some things you wouldn’t hear on regular ear/headphones. They look and feel like a premium product and I would highly recommend to anyone who is put off by back noise while listening to audio. Great for music, videos, podcasts and audiobooks!

Well after all these years of listening to songs I 'thought" I knew well.... it seems I didn't after all.... What you think you know and what you hear with these are two different things..it's like having an orchestra in your ear.... Once the Bluetooth is set up your good to go.... just slide the right ear cup for volume... these also accept calls from IOS and Android....With a name like Bose...you're in for a great time.

I have used these all day every day for the last few weeks for making calls on Teams and listening to music whilst working from home. They are very comfortable, even after wearing them all day and despite my glasses. The noise cancellation is excellent, when you switch them on it suddenly goes silent. I had some trouble with the initial connection from the app. However, after updating the software everything seems OK now. Simultaneous connection to 2 devices is glitchy.

Stylish, comfortable, high quality headphones. Charge incredibly fast, 10 mins gives you a few hours of playtime. Voiceover saves you having to look at your devices and check battery, gestures are useful. Bose definitely need to sort out the issues with connecting to the Bose app, as it takes away from the experience. The headphones also didn't connect to my new laptop at first and I had to go through countless advanced settings and remove certain elements of Bluetooth before it worked.

After using the headset for 1 hour I started to get static in one ear when listening to some music on my laptop. I googled it, it seems to be a know problem, they recommend to update the firmware, I did, but it didn't fix the problem. This is totally unacceptable for a 300$ headset. It is just not working. I am afraid that there is too much software in these devices now and Bose is not really good as that...

Have been considering a pair of Bose headphones for some time. A recent stay in hospital convinced me the time was right. Outstanding sound quality, most comfortable headphones I've ever owned. I'm 58 and although I'm reasonably tech say I wondered how I'd get on with the touch gestures required. No problem, touch pad is spot on. Very easy to use. Noise cancelling is excellent & easy to control via the app. Only one small gripe, be careful, tip your head back too far & they will slip off!
