"Sony and Bose released flagship headphones this year, delivering new features, upgraded audio performance, improved battery capacity, and most importantly, the best active noise cancellation (ANC) in the industry. Bose was once undefeated in its noise-canceling capabilities, but Sony's are a fierce competitor. Bose is back with a counterpunch in the form of the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) Can Bose reclaim the ANC crown from Sony? Are there other areas in which they're better?"
"The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) sound excellent, and while I still prefer the overall audio response of Sony's headphones, they each offer a slightly different tuning out of the box. Sony's sound is crisper and more analytical, but Bose's sound profile is suited well for long-term listening, especially while traveling. For some, that may mean the Bose headphones are a better buy. Bose's headphones sound more sculpted, pulling back the mids and prioritizing the bass and high frequencies."
Sony and Bose released flagship headphones this year with upgraded audio performance, improved battery capacity, and industry-leading active noise cancellation (ANC). Bose's QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) emphasize a sculpted, consumer-friendly sound that pulls back the mids and prioritizes bass and high frequencies for comfortable long-term listening, especially during travel. Sony's headphones offer a crisper, more analytical tuning. Bose includes USB-C connectivity and a smaller 2.5mm-to-3.5mm wired jack, while Sony provides a standard 3.5mm audio jack. Each brand excels in different categories with distinct user experiences and feature trade-offs.
