So the AirPods Pro 3 just came out, and I do have a few things to say about them that I dont like. But regardless, Apple’s AirPods are still some of the best earbuds out there and they are the gold standard. And one of the most important things about wireless earbuds is their microphone for phone calls. So in this video we’re going to be testing the Microphone performance on the new AirPods Pro 3, and we’re going to see how it compares to the AirPods Pro 2, the AirPods 4, and also to some Bose, Sony and Soundcore Earbuds as well.
Bose QC Ultra Earbuds 2 Vs Bose QC Earbuds
So like I said in my previous video, I think that bose has been very stagnate for the last few years. Instead of making the hardware changes that they need… they’ve just been putting out products with very minor upgrades, they throw in AI, and come out with a whole lot of new color ways and they call it a new product. Now dont get me wrong, I think the Bose Smart Soundbar is a great mid sized soundbar consider, and I really like the Bose QC Headphones cause they are super comfy, and both of Bose’s earbuds fit very well, but both the Bose QC Ultra earbuds 2 and the Bose QC Earbuds struggle to keep up with the rest of the competition.
Bose QC Earbuds 2024 - Great Fit As Always, Not As Convenient As Always
So these are the Bose QC earbuds, and as always, Bose’s earbuds are very comfy, they offer great lockdown, they block out a lot of noise and they sound good. But as always, Bose’s earbuds are not the most convenient earbuds out there cause of their large case and poor case to battery life ratio, and they dont have the best sounding microphone out there for phone calls. Nonetheless lets see what the Bose QC earbuds are all about, and we’re going to be comparing them to a lot of other ANC earbuds for late 2024 early 2025.
Bose Sport Open Earbuds Review
So right now Bose is somewhat of a weird company. Right now I like the Bose NC 700 Headphones, but I dread every single time they get an upgrade. I absolutely love their Smart Sound Bar 300, cause the thing sounds great and its tiny… but then bose starts to get weird when it comes to their Earbuds.
Even though the Bose QC earbuds block out the most amount of noise for truly wireless earbuds… Im not a fan of the Bose QC earbud’s ANC cause it does give me headaches. And that’s why I still prefer the ANC on the Jabra Elite 85T’s. But I also don’t like the Bose QC earbuds cause their case is colossal.
But now we’ve go the Bose Sport Open earbuds. Now I get it, these things are niche and they’re targeting people who like to work out but also don’t like in ear earbuds. Im one of those people. But I can’t help but feel that these things are very much a beta product cause execution on this could have been much better especially for earbuds in 2021. Now im completely writing these things off… but keep in mind these things are for a very niche costumer that doesn’t mind putting up with some quirks.
AirPods Pro Vs Bose QC Earbuds Vs Sony WF-1000XM3 Vs Sennheiser Momentum TW 2
There are plenty of great truly wireless earbuds out there to choose from… but the premium ANC earbud market is really starting to heat up. First we got the Sony WF-1000XM3’s… then we got the AirPods Pro’s… shortly after we got the Sennheiser Momentum 2’s and now after a few delays and a name change we’ve got the Bose QC earbud’s. Now there are more ANC earbuds hitting the market these days but these are the most popular ones. So if you’re thinking about getting any of these earbuds… lets see which ones are right for you.
Bose QC Earbuds Review
Im going to start off this video by saying that yes, the Bose QC earbuds block out an impressive amount of noise. They also have a decent ambient mode and they also sound pretty good. But unfortunately for me its very hard to recommend these earbuds as a pair of everyday carry earbuds cause their form factor is very 2018. Plainly said, this case is colossal when compared to today’s super popular everyday carry earbuds.
