First off, fantastic sounding headphones. Great sound quality and the noise cancellation is terrific.
My problem. The jack that connects to the headphones themselves. While listening I noticed that my arm caught the cord only ever so slightly and the music cut out completely in the right ear. The headphones themselves didn't even move out of position. I thought I just didn't have them in all the way and after attempting to push it in further it became apparent it indeed was in all the way. Some research online turned up some YouTube videos of the exact same problem where the slightest touch of the cable knocks out the right ear and you have to just faintly push it in again.
Sorry, I'm not going to constantly do this not for $300 pair of headphones. If you're not moving and just sitting or laying down listening to music they're fantastic but soon as you start moving forget about it even just walking with them in bumps it out.
Returning them tomorrow for sure.

I thoroughly researched noise cancelling headphones before purchasing & in every online review these Bose QC25s received top marks - They were even mentioned in reviews of other products!
I'm pleased to say that these headphones are exceptional. Very comfortable to wear & the sound quality is remarkable. When you activate the noise cancelling feature, it is almost as if you are actually there with the sound. I listen to a lot of online spoken word radio as well as to music & whilst listening to radio programmes, you are far more aware of the ambient background noise in the broadcast. I.e. Wind, footsteps etc..
You can still detect faint background noises In your listening environment, but it' almost as if the headphones are literally sucking it out & filtering it for you - Like a "Dolby" system for your ears. Voices are reduced to a whisper & annoying unwanted background noise disappears.
Don't hesitate about buying these Bose headphones. You won't regret it.

I had these for a little more than one year. Only used occasionally for long flights and trains rides. Sound quality was outstanding and they were very comfortable to wear. However, tried using them yesterday and the right side started cutting out then stopped playing sound completely. Tried an extra cord but that was not the issue. For $300 I expect better reliability than this. Of course, I am just outside of my warrant. Never again will I spend this kind of money on a Bose product.
Just as an update to my prior review, I contacted Bose, as some other reviewers had suggested. It turns out I was still in warranty and they replaced them without much hassle. I have to commend their customer service in this instance as it they were actually great to deal with. I'm hoping my replacement headphones hold up. They sound great just like the originals.

I love these. We just finished a trip with several 9+ hour flights, all of which included families with babies or small children. That's a long time to expect children to be good. At the end of one trip, a mother turned to those around her and apologized for her children. I hadn't heard them at all. Do be sure to have an extra AAA battery with you in case you forget to turn the noise-cancellation off. Without that, you'll hear the hum of the airplane, which almost completely goes away with the noise cancellation turned on. I had another set of Bose headsets which were not "over the ear", but had excellent sound. The stiff, thick headband is a bit uncomfortable when trying to settle in to sleep on a plane, but I can't imagine it's much different for any other set of headphones. These are superior and I'm very happy with them.

I will not attest to being an audiophile, nor will I claim these are the best headphones on the market...
I owned some old Bose headphones a few years ago, but they were not noise cancelling, and, overall, these are a good step up.
These QC25 are extremely comfortable - I could wear them constantly for a very long time. I will really be putting that to the test on an upcoming transcontinental flight that will run over 8 hours...
The noise cancelling functionality is really great. It's fun to play around with too... obviously it does not block out everything completely, particularly unpredictable noise patterns, e.g. conversations, but it does just enough so that you can enjoy your audio content at very moderate or even low volume settings.
Regarding quality, the hardware quality is great. As I said before, the ear pieces are very comfortable, and they appear well designed and built. I know they are relatively fragile because I did in my last pair by accidentally sitting on them, but i wouldnt expect any more from lightweight thin plastic. However, those old headphones did not have foldable ear pieces like the QC25, a feature which i believe would have prevented my last pair from breaking like they did. It also makes for very convenient/compact storage.
For sound quality, they are great. Again, I don't want to go into audiophile land, but given that these are compact, noise cancelling, and have very minimal noise leakage, I think the sound is great across the board. I'm a bit big on bass, and these provide the punch I am used to in my car with my subs. The only other headphones I've seen people reference as having better overall sound quality and bass cannot compete as a full package on the three things I previously mentioned: size, noise cancelling, and noise leakage.
Overall, I love my Bose products, and, unfortunately for Bose, I hope I can go on to enjoy this same pair for decades to come!

I have been a fan of Bose headphones for a while now and the Bose QuietComfort 25 Headphones are excellent. The noise canceling ability allows me to drift away in my own world leaving behind the hustle and bustle of the everyday world.
There are several features that make these headphones my favorite:
The comfortable design - Bose has modified the shape of the headband. Not only is the material soft but it conforms to the shape of your head even better than other models. When we go on our next family vacation, these will definitely be going with us. I will be able to sit back and watch a movie or listen to music without disturbing the other individuals in the van.
The construction - These Bose headphones seem to be better constructed and of a higher quality than other headphones I have tried. They are light weight with cast-zinc hinges and a removable cord. The headphones use one AAA battery for power but will continue to play even after the battery has died. The battery will give you 35 hours of sound before it dies, 35 hours of peace and quiet that will be greatly appreciated when you take that long family trip with an infant and an 8 year old. I can't wait for our family trip now...lol
Color - I received the headphones in white but they also comes in black and for a little more money you can even customize your headphones.
Carrying case - While I wish the carrying case was just a little bit bigger, I do like the size of the carrying case and the fact that it has a slot for an extra battery.
There are only two drawbacks that I see when it comes to these headphones. One, the price. Now, if you are a connoisseur of high-quality electronics and do not mind paying $300 for a set of headphones these would be a great investment. Secondly, I wish there was other option for storing the cord in the case. Maybe redesigning the case to allow the cord to fit along the outer edge of the headphones might be a better idea than simply trying to roll up the cord and stuff it into the case in some fashion that allows you to close the case without damaging the cord itself. The headphones themselves fit into the case well and these headphones take up less room than some of the other comparable headphones on the market. These two facts are minor when you consider the amazing quality of sound that you receive when you use them.
They sound fantastic with my iphone 6 and are fully compatible. The controller on the mic works like a charm in switching music, volume, pausing, etc.

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to write this review. I have had my eye on these headphones for atleast 3 years and I finally gave in and got one as a gift for my husband. It was a valentines day gift. Alas as soon as we took the device out of the box and plugged in, we could not hear anything from the right ear. We tested it using multiple devices, we also gingerly removed and reinserted the plug. At times reinserting the plug would work, and music was audible through the right ear, however, there was a lot of maneuvering and holding of the cord to be done.
I have to say I never expected this from Bose. These guys were "The god" of music. I feel so sad, I asked for a replacement, but nothing can replace the disappointment I faced, this was a gift, I wanted it to be perfect. Why did you let me down Bose?

I bought these headphones yesterday and will be returning them today. I am BEYOND disappointed. I have been a loyal Bose consumer for a long time, and these do not measure up to previous products they've produced. Yes, the noise cancelation is impressive, and YES they are comfortable. If those are the only two things that matter to you, then these are perfect for you.
However, the sound quality is very tin-y and you have to turn them way up in order to even get a half way decent sound. Once you've turned your volume up to about 80% the sound leakage is ridiculous. Sure, you won't be able to hear the sounds around you, but someone sitting next to you will hear every note and every line of your song... Embarrassing if you feel like entertaining that side of you that has a sudden need to rock out to KE$HA.
Minor thing: If the cable isn't in the exact right spot on the headphones, the sound will buzz and cut out.
These are not worth the money, sorry to say.

Music does not sound as good as it used to to me. I blamed myself. I really haven't kept current and who wants to hear the same things over and over. In my car and on my little bluetooth speakers at home it sounds just ok. I hadn't noticed that I simply don't have a top notch stereo anymore and you don't find them everywhere anymore.
Anyway, I put on the QC 25s and the joy is back! The deep base, the crystal treble, the sounds of fingers sliding on guitar strings. I can appreciate the rich details of what seems like pretty simple music on the radio. They turn a nothing experience into an enjoyable one.
The noise canceling is definitely noticeable. I can remember when they made headphones that claimed to cancel noise but I could not detect a difference when I switched them on. Not the case here. These definitely reduce background noise.

Ordered from Amazon.de, for some unknown reason Amazon sells them at around 200 pounds brand new on the German store.. Got the white version....
Sound is simply amazing, well balanced, noise cancelling works fine. I have tried and owned a lot of different OE headphones and IE versions, an probably the QC25 provide the best sound all around, nice full body bass when needed, good medium and not too much highs that I find often annoying.
They are conformable to wear, but the Bose sound true headset is much lighter and comfy than the QC25.
I commute to work with the noisy tube, your journey it is just a new experience, you will find yourself completely disconnected by the people around you, and fully immersed into the music.
are 200+ worth it? yes, we live only once, if you like music, the QC25 are the best way to enjoy it.

If you are familiar with Bose equipment then you know what to expect - quality. Quality sound, fit, comfort and use. This may sound like a marketing ad but I really do love listening to my music with these headphones.
First is Bose construction and quality. The head adjustment itself is smooth and tactile but solid and along with the over the ear cushions make these headphones so comfortable. I don't feel any pressure at all. And even though they are sturdy and well made headphones they are also very light.
Without the battery or noise cancelation turned off you will notice very little external noise. With noise cancelation turned on it's like being in another world. It's amazing the difference it makes; it's like a brick wall is formed around you. Be careful you might be singing too loud! You can barely hear your own voice.
The headphones are universal; the cable can be removed and replaced with one compatible with other devices. This one came compatible for Samsung and Android devices. However, the controls do not work at all with our Kindle Fires. It does pause and start music on our iPods and MacBook Pro. For about $25 you can get the compatible cable which includes microphone to answer phone calls. But really, these headphones are so good I wouldn't want my music interrupted!
Noise cancelation is turned on and off with a little switch on the right side. Bose systems do not have sound adjustments but with some songs you may notice slightly less base with noise cancelation turned on which I actually prefer.
Overall, I couldn't be happier. The sound is what I care about. Having the ability to control the device is a nice feature but not one I rarely use.

Pros:
+The hard carrying case is very well designed - it protects the headphones pretty well and fits them nicely.
+The hard carrying case holds an extra AAA battery, includes an air plane seat audio port adapter (which is very useful), and has a pouch on the back to hold things such as a passport.
+The headphones have a very sleek design, especially compared to their predecessor, the Bose QuietComfort 15s.
+The ear cushions fit very well, and remain comfortable even after prolonged usage
+The headphones are quite light.
+The noise-cancelling is absolutely phenomenal - it is unmatched.
+Sound leakage is non-existent at regular volumes, but even at high volumes it can barely be heard.
Cons:
-The sound quality isn't bad, but it is sub-par for this price range. There are headphones that are two thirds of this price that have the same sound quality without the noise-cancellation.
-The battery is held in the right earmuff, and sometimes rattles
-If in a quiet room with noise-cancellation activated, a slight hissing noise can be heard from the headphones.
-The controls seem a bit too far up the cable.
-The cable sometimes moves out a little bit from the headphones, which stops sound from coming out the earmuff.
Overall:
These headphones have the best noise-cancellation available on the market. The sound quality isn't anything amazing so unless you are frequently in environments with annoying ambient noise (such as on an airplane), you should stay away from these. These are very well constructed but I recommend you try these out at a store before you buy them.

I bought these last month before traveling again on a long trip and I wasn't tearing my hair out when I arrived at my destination. Also, these are my first pair of Bose noise cancelling headphones. I have had similar inferior products, such as Skull Candy NC headphones, that lasted for years, but they fell apart and started making a humming sound that I could no longer take.
Pros:
The look great. Better than the regular model.
Comfortable enough for me to wear them for 14 hours.
Great NC properties
Exceptional battery life
Easy to replace the battery
Quality sound that lasts
Good quality container to protect them from light travel
Cons:
Price
The cord is relatively short
Storage inside the container could be better to hold the cord in place with out jimmying it in
Overall
I would recommend these. I hope they hold up. The only thing I would add is a good hard case if you plan on doing any deploying or attempting an expedition. You have to have some creature comforts.

These truly are an incredible pair of headphones they look and feel awesome.
They really come into their own when travelling, the noise cancellation is absolutely second to none.
I recently used these on a 13 hour long haul flight from the UK to China & was actually able to sleep on the flight for the first time ever.
It was like I was sitting in my own private, silent sound bubble, the noise of the aircraft is reduced so much it's actually quite unbelievable!
And because of this you do not need to blast your eardrums with excessive volume as you do with the disposable headphones that are supplied by the Airline. Even if you don't want to listen to music or watch a film you can simply pull out the cord and read your book or have a snooze in almost total silence.
As you would expect when paying such a premium price, these headphones are very well made and extremely comfortable to wear.
They do sometimes feel a little strange when you first turn the noise cancellation on, A slight change in pressure perhaps?
I would not recommend these for home use, I can't really see the point and they are really expensive, however if you travel regularly, they are an absolute godsend. Trains, planes, coaches, commuting - just treat yourself, you won't be disappointed.
Definitely one of the best investments I've made in a long time and I fussed about for ages looking at headphones that were less money.
Very easy to forget to turn them off though, Just keep a spare battery in your case.
I really love this Little bit of luxury and have already enjoyed them immensely.
Looking forward to my next long haul flight now & constantly rediscovering so much of my forgotten music collection.
So SO Pleased with these.
Well done Bose this product has surpassed my expectations and is well worth the hefty price tag.

My other half bought me these for Christmas 2014. Now in February 2016, only 14 months later, they have failed.
The left ear has no longer has sound coming out of it. The noise canceling no longer functions. Its as if a wire has come loose from the internal circuitry. The speaker emits no sound...
Once this happened, I checked reviews here on Amazon and elsewhere this is a common problem. There are many complaints about the quality of these Bose headphones. If anyone can point me to the right Bose customer service department that would help (link please). I'll try and take it up with Bose, but really a $300 product should not fail in 14 months (and just out of the one year warranty period!) If they help positively, I'll update this review.....

I am not a fan of over-the-ear headphones. I've always preferred earbuds, especially when working out. I picked up a pair of the QC25s for use on my computer or when traveling (not working out).
1. I must say the sound quality is awesome when listening to music.
2. I've done several VoIP conferences, so I know the mic works well.
3. The Noise-canceling is awesome, particularly when you are doing air travel as it blocks out the engine noise. You can just throw them on, turn on the noise canceling (without playing any music/video) and then voila, you have blissful peace; you can now go to sleep or concentrate on some tasks such as reading a magazine or getting work done on your laptop. It also cancels noise created from Air Conditioners like in rooms at home an work where I frequently use my computer.
4. As for the physical characteristics
- It's lightweight;
- the fit is perfect as the clamping is the best I've ever tried in any over-the ear headphone and its ear cushions are soft (at least for my ears); I actually think I could use these at the gym but I won't because I'm not willing to risk damaging them with water/sweat.
- the overall build quality is just right; it doesn't feel "plasticy" like the Beats headphones. The materials that it is constructed with allow quite a bit of flex, which means I have less chance of physical damage.
Never thought I'd spend this much on a pair of headphone, but these are now the standard that I'll base ay other headphone that I try in the future. I wish they had the equivalent in a bluetooth model, but I'm not looking forward to the starting price on that.

In the past I've used headphones from a few different manufacturers but have never been 100% pleased with the sound despite many of them being quite good sound wise. I can't say that I've ever used Bose headphones to the best of my knowledge so I was quite eager to test these out and see how they compare to my current favourite Bowers and Wilkins headphones.
The first thing you notice with these headphones is the size, they're quite a bit larger than my P3's so take a bit of getting used to. They're made from a strong plastic with cushioned headband and earcups and the cable connects to one side of the headphones, which I generally prefer as I find the cable can get in the way sometimes with other headphones. You also get a carrying case which is useful if you plan on taking them with you and need something to protect them in your bag.
One of the best things about these headphones, for me anyway, is the noise cancellation feature. Even when I have my headphones on fairly loud I can still usually hear what's going on around me, one of the downsides to living in a noisy household I suppose. But with the Bose headphones you really do hear your music and just your music getting rid of any external sounds. It'll be interesting to see how long the battery lasts, Bose claim 35 hours so we'll see how accurate that is. I tend to use my headphones quite a bit so I may find myself replacing the battery quite often.
As for the sound, well it's very hard to describe but it's the best I've had from a pair of headphones to date. I listen to a range of different types of music and usually find that a particular pair of headphones is better suited to a certain type of music. These Bose headphone seem to accurately reproduce all kinds of music from my collection. Bass is where I usually have a problem and when listening to classical music or something orchestral I tend to find that the track is overpowered with the bass and you never get a full all round sound. The Bose headphones accomplish this with ease and make it a pleasure to listen to my collection once more. When listening to vocal tracks there seems to be an even balance between the bass, mids and the vocal highs.
So far I've been using these headphones every day since I've had them and for quite a few hours each day. They're comfortable to wear and the sound is just great, noise cancellation is by far the best feature for me.

These are fantastic headphones with great sound quality, really easy to wear and they look good.
Why am I only giving them 3 stars? I am about to have another replacement from Amazon as the build quality is not good. I have had three of these fail with the same fault. They work well for about three months than the right earpiece sound goes. That's the one the folds up.
I use them every day on my commute to work and back so its annoying when they fail. When you pay over £250 for a set of headphones you expect more than 3 months use. I had an earler set of Bose QC headphones and they were incredibly reliable and my son is now using them after ovber 5 years of use.
So, I have no problems with Bose or the design. However, the reliability and durability is awful.
Really impressed with Amazon's returns service though. It is incredibly efficient and easy to use. So well done to Amazon. You get 5 stars from me. Bose, you just scrape a three on this one. Sort your build quality out.

I bought a pair of these last week. After less than a day, the right ear kept going out. I would constantly have to readjust the cord in order to get sound to come out of the right ear.
Any subtle movement would cause the right ear to go out. I figured this was an issue with the cord, but I checked on here and this seems to be a common issue. Even if it WAS just the cord, that is absolutely unacceptable for a pair of $300 headphones.
After a few days the sound would constantly cut in and out and the headphones were pretty much useless.
I returned the product and given all the issues others are having, will not be trying out another pair. Most of the negative reviews for this product have been in the past year, so I am wondering if they had some change in quality control.
Sadly, this was my first experience with a Bose product. Given the bad experience I had and the seemingly shoddy quality of its very expensive product, it will also be my last.

Mmmm where to start. The only reason why I gave this product 3 stars is because I love Bose, however, these are really over priced. Don't give me wrong, the sound is amazing, they are comfy, and they cancel noise very very well. For me the reason why I'll be returning these is because of the low volume. I crank up the sound in my phone and they sound good but i do wish that they were a bit louder at times. The second reason is because of the price. I feel that for $300 they should have better base, they should be wireless and still have noise cancelation. They should also include a smaller AUX cord. I often find my self having to tuck in an extra 10inch of cable in my pocket. Finally as much as I like Bose products I was not completely happy with my purchase. The headphones just fell short in one too many categories for me.

We live in a house with an open-floor plan, which highlights and magnifies every noise. So for the past three years I have used both the Bose QC15s and Sennheiser PXC 450s on a daily basis. I used the QC15s to listen to music at bedtime (and drown out my wife’s white noise machine) and I use the Sennheisers for watching television. Both have served me well, though the Sennheiser’s inferior noise cancellation limits its usefulness in our bedroom setting.
Recently, the ear pads on my QC15s wore out and, although I replaced them with genuine Bose products, the new ones kept popping off. Thus, when the QC25s came out, I thought I would try them. Right out of the box, the improvements in sound quality and noise cancellation were noticeable. The QC25s sound much brighter, more precise, more sensitive and spacious than the comparatively muddy sounding QC15s. Furthermore, they cancelled out the white noise machine noticeably better than did the QC15s. Both distinctions were instantly apparent and do not factor in any burn-in of the QC25s. Also, the QC25s are more comfortable and more substantial than my QC15s, which I kept and still work.
Now, some users may not find these improvements to be dramatic enough to plop down $300 to replace functioning QC15s--especially if you use them infrequently for travel. But if you use these headphones on a daily basis, I recommend the upgrade.
As per the Sennheisers, they still are better for television viewing for two reasons: They don’t totally blank out all ambient sound, which prevents me from being startled; and they are better built, which helps them better survive being tossed around the TV room on a daily basis. What are the sound quality differences between the Sennheiser PXC 450s and the QC25s? A close call from my perspective, it comes down to taste—I lean toward the QC25s. But the noise cancellation is not close at all, the QC25s are VASTLY superior, plus the Sennheisers eat batteries, even when NC is turned off.

I am going to give this product 5 stars despite having to send it back for a defect connector that was place crooked in the l-shaped rubber housing, that is, the end you plug into your device. I returned this set in exchange for the very same item. I love the clear, concise, balanced sound of these headphones. That defect was just one of those things that is a rare case, so no big deal. And I also have a pair of Klipsch Bluetooth Image One headphones that are also awesome. They are on the ear rather than over the ear like the Bose, so sometimes I need over the ear phones as I have cervical disc damage that leaves my neck up to my ears in pain a times. So now, I have the best of both worlds. Now to my own fault of missing a detail, I thought the Bose were Bluetooth. But they are not. I wish they were. However, the sound is so good, even without Bluetooth, I still rate them 5 stars. I have had Bose headphones before. These are made even better, more comfortable and sound just awesome. I am a heavy music listener and I also write to music, so good headphones are paramount to me. I realized different sets of human ears hear differently, some hear more detail, some less. So really, you have to just try some sets to see what your ear picks up best. For me, my Klipsch Bluetooth Image One and these Bose QC-25 sets are both great and balance out my needs for both kinds. Happy hunting for what suits you best. I hope this review helps

When it comes to music and headphones, I have never been one that claims to be very much of an audiophile. This changed a great deal on November 25th, 2014, when I flew home first class from Honolulu to Memphis. It was upon this day that I was given a pair of Bose noise cancellation headphones to enjoy on the flight. My tastes in headphones has never been the same since.
I began to do much research on best noise cancellation headphones currently on the market (please note “best noise cancellation”, as this will be important as to why I am giving this product a 4 star review rather than 5). The one name that seemed ubiquitous to all review sites and equally high rated was the Bose Q25.
Turn these on, put these on, and the world ceases to exist. They are quite comfortable even on a large head, like mine. If you are a frequent traveler, you know what it is like to try to get thru long flight with a screaming child or overly talkative adults. Not only did these headphones all but banish surrounding noise, but I was actually able to fall asleep while flying, which I have never been able to do.
The sound quality, however, is where the Q25’s come up just a little short. It could just be a matter of personal taste, but the bass is somewhat lacking from them. While the overall sound quality is great, I would not call it rich and deep like another pair of headphones that I tried before finally deciding on these. That being said, if you are like me and you place more value on peace and quiet versus deep, rich bass, the somewhat lofty price tag is worth every penny.
Pros –
Very Comfortable
Great sound
Excellent noise cancellation
Cons –
Lacking in bass
Somewhat pricey

My dad and I both purchased the QuietComfort 25. I use mine almost every day and for the price of $300 bucks I take EXTREMELY good care of them! I always fold them back into the case carefully and take care of the cord. After less than 2 months my pair just one day stopped working on the right ear, the side which must be folded to be put back in the case. I was so upset that my dad let me use his while we sent mine in for replacement. After less than another 2 months of use THE EXACT SAME THING happened to my dads pair! Thanks to the warranty Bose has sent us replacements with minimal hassle so I give them 5 stars for their customer service, but the product design (including the storage) of these headphones is absolute garbage. I am a professional musician who listens to everything from classical to rap, and travels on airplanes frequently, I would say that the bottom line noise cancelling and sound quality of the QC is comparable to the Sennheiser PCX450's. Unless Bose improves the build of their product I won't be buying from them again.
