The market for headphones with active noise cancellation (ANC) used to belong to Bose till Sony came along. The Bose QuietComfort 35 II (QC35 II) are excellent headphones, but they pale in both audio quality and noise cancelling prowess compared to Sony’s MDR-1000XM3 , the third iteration of the...

Good headphones do more than they used to. A couple of years ago, all anyone expected from their headphones was reasonably good sound quality. But these days, people are looking for noise cancelling features, wireless connectivity, voice assistant support, and a number of similar features.

Giving it some well deserved time, the Bose 700 are a great set of cans that you want to try out. Spectacular battery life, awesome for phone convos and of course music listening. While the sound is good overall its just lacking a bit in the mids area.

There’s no question that the 700 is the more skilled headphone of the two models. Cleaner and better balanced with a more natural sound overall, the 700 is hard to beat. It’s also a more versatile choice for folks who listen across a variety of genres.

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.

Uninspired sound quality

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.

Bose is boss when it comes to noise-cancelling headphones and the 700 is proof of that. With a much higher degree of build quality, comfort and ANC adjustment compared to the QC35 II model, along with impressive sound and battery life, we struggle to think of a better pair of ANC over-ears. No, the design isn't foldable, but with something as well made as this that's turned out not to be a downside.

Incredible multi-level noise-cancelling technology; Touch controls on right earcup are a cinch to use; Powerful sound quality and impactful low-end; Comfortable design - even for long periods of wear;

Non-folding design may put some off; No equaliser (EQ) within the app; There's now a lot of competition - such as the Sony WH-1000M3; The name is a bit excessive;

The Bose 700 are a good set of wireless noise-cancellers with quirks....
