Bose is one of the pioneers and most successful suppliers of noise-cancelling headphones. The Headphones 700 model marks the latest version of this technology, which now comes in an updated, tasteful and functional design.

The Bose Headphones 700 don't quite do enough to claim the noise cancelling crown. The sound quality is phenomenal - up their with Sony's best - but a price hike combined with an awkward app and some intermittent Bluetooth issues make these over-ear headphones merely good, rather than great.

Buy the Bose 700 headphones if you want the ultimate in active noise-cancelling cans that offers superior performance for music and calls. Our overall Bose 700 review verdict? These headphones aren't your daddy's Bose.

Slick, attractive design, Excellent noise cancelling on calls and music, Precise, balanced audio, Intuitive buttons and touch controls

Bose’s gorgeous NC 700 headphones are worthy successors to the QC35 – though they can’t quite dethrone the Sony WH-1000XM3

Outstanding microphone quality; Gorgeous design; Excellent active noise-cancelling technology;

Sony WH-1000XM3 provides better ANC performance; Doesn’t support high-quality codecs; Headband design reverberates unwanted sounds;

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

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
