Bose, the folks who have been winning accolades for noise cancelling headphones for years, will win over users again with its new Noise Cancelling Headphones 700.

Bose has truly made a great pair of headphones with the NC 700. Be it design, audio quality or the excellent noise-cancelling tech, it’s hard to find a fault with these pair of headphones. Perhaps a price tag of just over Rs 35,000 might turn off more than a few prospective buyers.

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 review: At Rs 34,500, the Bose Headphone 700 is among the best noise-cancelling headphones you can...

Bose was once the only and go-to company that made the best noise-canceling headphones. If you traveled on planes and trains, the QuietComfort series is all you would see people wearing. But as time wen ton, new players came into the game and began making waves.

When Bose launched the first QuietComfort active noise-cancelling (ANC) headphones in 2000, it changed the way consumers enjoy music outdoors, and especially on planes. The headphones were very functional, achieving noise cancellation and comfort, and were loved by frequent travellers.

Iconic design that looks subtle yet eye-catching in any occasion; Better controlled ANC levels to personalise the preferred amount of ambient noise; Able to connect 2 devices at the same time

Relatively lower battery life than competitors; Does not support premium codecs like aptX and LDAC; Requires larger storage space as the headphones do not fold; Passive audio quality is uninspiring

While the Bose 700 headphones don't beat the Sony WH-1000XM3 at active noise cancelling, they still do a great job. This is exactly the upgrade that Bose needed to make and I think doing so has made the Bose 700 headphones the most desirable pair of ANC cans on the market.

Great active noise ancelling; Sleek; new design; Gesture pad works perfectly; Better sounding than the QC35s

No folding hinges; Expensive; Microphone cuts off lower notes so people with deep voices won't come across as loud

After almost two months finally i found the right headphone for myself. Before I bought the bose 700 i had tried the sony xm3 and nuraphone. But i had to return both because a) the earplugs inside nuraphone was hurting my ears b) the sony xm3 couldn’t connect to my iPhone and ipad at the same time...

Bose has a lot riding on the Noise Cancelling Headphones 700. Long the dominant player in this space, the company has faced formidable competition from Sony’s 1000X-series headphones in recent years; the 1000XM3s finally bested the noise cancellation of Bose’s QuietComfort 35 II headphones, and many...

Superb noise cancellation; The best voice calls you’ll experience on any headphones; Can connect to two devices simultaneously

Not quite as feathery light and comfortable as QC35 IIs; Bose Music app in dire need of fixes; Accidental button presses are common

The market for headphones with active noise canceling is large and more and more manufacturers are moving into this segment. Bose came under pressure with the Quiet-Comfort series, not only from well-known manufacturers such as Sennheiser, Sony and Co.

Very good ANC; Very comfortable to wear; Noise minimization even during telephone calls; Connection with two devices possible

Bose AR is (still?) a gimmick; No cable with in-line microphone and remote control
