Our score out of 10
Best for Long sessions and anyone who finds clamping force painful
The verdict
Bose still wins on comfort and spatial audio, and trades a little battery life to get there.
Pros and cons
What we liked
- The most comfortable fit in the category
- Immersive Audio is genuinely worth using
- Best cancellation of sudden sounds
What we didn’t
- Shorter battery life than the Sony
- No wired lossless option
Our review
If you wear headphones for six hours at a stretch, the QC Ultra is the one that disappears on your head. Cancellation is a hair behind Sony on engine noise but ahead on sudden sounds, and the Immersive Audio mode is the only spatial implementation worth leaving on.
Battery life trails the Sony, and Immersive Audio cuts it further. There is no wired lossless option, which will bother a small number of buyers.
