Great Sound needing Functionality Help
I would say that these are by far some of the best sounding headphone I’ve ever used. The noise cancellation is on point, and the different modes are immersive. They may be meant for a great musical experience, but I found podcasts and calls equally enjoyable. These buds may seem bulky at first, but the fit is perfect and they are very light, I very rarely had to make any sort of physical adjustments. Battery life has also been a huge plus, both for the buds, and the recharge on the case.
There is a drawback when it comes to connecting to a PC. There is no app to control the functionality as there is with a mobile device. So, you default to the same sound mode, giving you a special audio feeling. Not so great when doing video conference calls and trying to key in on the spoken word.
There is also no feedback when you touch the headphone to change settings, even a subtle beep would let the user know that something has changed. There were a few times where I had accidental touches and did not notice because there of a lack of notification or messed up even further by overcorrecting with more touches.
The case, though sleek, does not have a great finish. I do not know how many times I dropped it because of how slick it is. I have yet to find an attractive or well-fitting solution for this, in forms of a cover.
Having used mostly mobile phone OEM buds in the past, my experience working out, doing work items on my PC, flying in planes, all talks I’ve done with these Bose, seemed to be a bit less seamless. I gave myself adjustment time, but aside from the amazing sound, I’m finding this a downgrade to my daily routines. I shouldn’t have to think about audio modes multiple times a day, or fight with connections between multiple devices (moving from the wrong connection on the fly), or having them lose Bluetooth connection, and giving me consistent tones the one time I don’t need feedback, when I know I don’t have an media device playing.
