In short, I am satisfied with Bose QC45, but they are useless for the calls or any use of microphone when background noise is present. Good review. 👍
Brouh, you do the best tests!! thank you
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!
Great review. thank you
Thanks for watching!
Nice and precise review. Would be interesting to see if the mics are any better than those on NC 700 . Btw, are those streets of Paris?
Thanks! Stay to tuned for that in the next video! And yes they are ;)
Its have any special setting for connect microphone
What button do you press to answer calls?
Bose management wanted to push the new NC700 into market but many customers prefer the QC35 design, the Bose accountants demanded a QC35 alike product that will sell well, thus these half baked QC45 got released.
Weird how even a year later the QC35's cost about $100 more than the QC45's
I tried to do a business call from a cafe once using qc35-2 and it was terrible. This model exhibits same problem. It doesnt filter out ambient noise at all. I had to switch to bang olufsen hx
Just purchased the QC 45's and I love them. Very few of these types of headphones are good for making calls so if you are using it for that purpose, you will probably be disappointed. I use these headphones for music and noise canceling in the gym and for traveling. Very happy.
Been thinking bout taking them to the gym, just wondering if the ear pads get ruined by sweat??
Could I use these as a mic for gaming ??????
I've just purchased the QC45 headsets and am very happy with them. Great sound and comfort.
However I cannot get them to work with Bluetooth on my Windows7 PC. There seems to be a problem with Drivers and "Googling" provides only confusion. No answers.
Bluetooth works with Sony WH-CH150. QC45's work well on on Bluetooth via iPad.
Does the mic work if they are plugged in with 3.5mm jack?
Nice there it is. Thumbs up. An great ANC. But is ist better then on the airpods max oder nc700?
Thanks! My upcoming video will compare these to the 700s, stay tuned to my channel for that ;)
i dont know but the mic is not working for me sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't i have no idea what is mute and unmute on it pls help somebody. thanks!
Is there a wired mic you can buy for these headphones ? To plug into the jack ? Great video by the way 👌
There are a few, yes. There's also a wireless version which I tested and was quite impressive; check out my review here th-cam.com/video/HlFO3iqhtME/w-d-xo.html
Excellent review! I came here to check the mic, and it does not seem to be that good. The voice quality is not natural or professional.
Also at 7:25, the review says boss stopped providing the aeroplane jack. This is a good thing and will protect you from injury. If you are connected to the Aeroplane sound and the announcement comes in, it is so loud that it can potentially deafen your ears (remember the headset cancels all the background noise, and you hear the announcement in full volume in it).
Great review! If I can find a cheap new pair of qc35ii for around 200USD, would you recommend me getting that or QC45? Thanks
That's a great question which I will definitely be answering in my upcoming video ;) So I'd say stay tuned, but a quick sneak-peek answer: I'd personally go for the QC35 II in that case.
Better to buy QC25 And run it through a quality bluetooth adapter/amp. You will have a massive increase in sound quality and a huge drop in price. And it even has a replaceable AAA battery, for longitivity and convenience. QC25 is the real upgrade, and many people miss that point.
I liked that you laid the video out with time marks. That's a time consuming thing to do.
Appreciate the comment! I believe people should be able to easily find (and watch) the parts that interest them. Thanks for watching!
Will you be doing a video comparing the Bose QC45 and the new Bose QuietComfort 45 headphones in the coming future? :) Nicely done.
I'll be reviewing soon the new Ultra headphones and Ultra buds--so stay tuned for that!
Looking forward!😊
I have upgraded my Headphones from QC25 to QC45. I had my QC25 for over 4 years. After wearing the QC45 for more than 20 min, I start experiencing pain on my ears due to the clamping force .I am not sure if this clamping force will come down over a period of time. I did not have this issues on QC25 which I wore for more than an hour. I am in dilemma if I should have the QC45 hoping that the clamping force will come down over a period of time or should I return it .Any thoughts on this. Do anyone feel the same.
The QC25's felt more loose because over the time you've owned them they did loosen up. The QC45's feel clamped on because they are brand new. The QC25's probably felt tighter when you first put them on. I suspect you'll get used to them.
So qc45 is the replacement for bose700 unrivaled anc call?
I wouldn’t say that yet… But, stay tuned for my upcoming comparison video between the QC45 and 700s. It’ll include a call quality test so you can compare for yourself ;)
After watching this video there is no mention of answer calls once it’s connected to mobile phone
I mostly listen to rock music and folk indie music, which headphones would be better in your opinion? Bose QC45 or 1000xm5 ?
I’m sorry I haven’t tried the XM5s so can’t comment on their performance. But if you know (and like) the Bose signature sound then you’re likely to enjoy the QC45s
I have heard not being able turn off the ANC it's more inferior against wind noise reduction when listening to audio compared to the QC 35 ii. Can you demonstrate that with a video? Tnx!
had the QC45s and can assure you they SUCK in windy conditions. The QC 35 iis have a low Anc mode which is much better in windy situations.
@@jexxy1806 Thanks. I have read a lot about that on Reddit too. I will not buy these headphones before they fix this issue. I have accepted all the downgrades of features, but that's the end line. The reason I asked for the video was to see an actual physical performance of how bad they were in windy situations. :)
That's an interesting point--did not think of testing that! I will try to test and make a quick video.
@@RawansReviews Thank you, pal.
@@zirak93-2 Video just out: th-cam.com/video/oIrYOwKOtBA/w-d-xo.html
i upgrade from qc15 to qc45 and its abig difference its wireless thank god!!!.. and better anc .. but the max volume is not as loud as the qc15.
Does the bose QC 45 have good bass. Because I force more on the bass.
Hard to answer as "good bass" is subjective. I'd say it has decent bass, but not overpowering. So it's not bass heavy. There is an EQ setting in the app though that allows you to increase bass. Best I would say is to try it yourself and see if it lives up to your definition of 'good bass'. Cheers.
Do you still have these headphones? I was thinking about getting them.
Unfortunately I do not. I currently still have the QC 35s and the NC 700.
@@RawansReviews Thanks.
surprised that the microphone is not better that this on wireless mode....
Is it normal to have no thumpy bass at all with 700 or my 700s are faulty?? Please answer this(i also own a qc 35 ii and it has that vibrating your head feeling but 700s NONE!)
While these are not bass-heavy, no bass at all doesn't sound right to me. Have you checked the EQ settings in the Bose Music app?
@@RawansReviews no thumps at all
There is bass but no thumpy bass
Idk my qc45 mic is just horrible it just pick up my seeling fan sound and enhances it too extreme ppl started complaining while i talk in call
It's really too bad you can't turn off ANC, it's a deal breaker for me. Bluetooth 5.0 and USB C are the 2 reasons why I would want this over the 35ii
I agree, and I do hope that Bose fix that with a future firmware release. Thanks for commenting!
I'm stoned , watching it and I like it. But what about music quality? Subscribed. Where you are you from ?
They sounds good, but they’re not an audiophile headphone. It has the signature “Bose sound”. For me; Bose headphones have decent sound (to my ears) but they really shine in ANC, and that’s what I’d buy them for. Thanks for watching and for the sub!
@@RawansReviews thanks for the reply. I love the Bose sound. Had in all my cars. The deep bass is perfect for hip hop and EDM, going to buy them today. Will let you know how it is.
@@borisyurinov4822 Many people/audiophiles aren't big fans of Bose sound. I'm not an audiophile, but as you I also enjoy Bose sound too. PS: Bose has "quietly" unveiled the QuietComfort SE. Unclear yet what the difference between it and the QC 45 is, could be slightly enhanced version, could be simply re-branded product. But something to keep in mind if you're just about to buy the 45s.
@@RawansReviews yeah. Saw the review of the SE. Don't see any difference. Anyway. Got my qc45s. As predicted - hip hop sounds good , trap, dance too. However, waiting for a software update, no stock EQ set up and ANC levels.
They are not too loud , but loud enough for sure. Basically, good bass, the signature Bose sound, clear and juicy. Defo a 5/5 musical experience. And 20hrs battery, beats my airpods PRO.
Update: downloaded a 3rd party equaliser and volume booster. Oh boy.
How come no reviwer ever complain or review about ear cushions. Those on Bose wear off within a year and no replacement is available by them. Its costly to replace if available or one has to buy knockoff. This is a major issue with bose head phone.
Fair point! I never could test longevity properly because I don't have a single daily-user pair of headphones, I have quite a few that I alternate, so I never really put on the same kind of stress on them that a normal user would. Having said, the ear cushions on my QC 35 did start wearing out, but that took a few years. To my knowledge Bose does sell an ear cushion kit, but it indeed is pricey--and naturally, knockoffs often don't feel as comfortable, from my experience. But very fair point, thanks for leaving the comment.
@@RawansReviews Ya but usually people have only one AnC due to price. Ear cushion are subjective as it will depend on environment and sweatness of a user. Bose or Sony both don't consider this point. Bose is worst if you open the cushion and see the ear cushion is just cheap resin glued.
wearing the headphones around the neck causes them to wear really fast, I rarely do that and my 3 year ols ear cushions still look like new
Wicked cushions company he got utube videos aswell amazing replacement cushions for all types of headphones no matter the make
It’s available for me but might be bc your comment was months ago
This is what happens when you have just any ceo's, vice presidents, directors and managers running the company - and not the actual founder or a visionary.
Don't listen to this video about the microphone part. The noise cancelling algorithm on the microphone is terrible. No one can ever hear me when speaking. It changes erratically from barely audible to slightly audible to completely inaudible. And there is no way to fix it, from what I have read all over the internet. The microphone is completely unusable.
Agreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed
The microphone test the way you did it is a waste of time, it would've been far more useful with the QC35II in it so that people can draw a conclusion how better/worse the microphones of the new QC45 perform
As this was a review of the QC45 themselves and not a comparison review, I believe some would find it useful how the mic performs in and of itself. What you are suggestions is also quite useful, but not the subject of this particular review. It definitely will be part of my upcoming review comparing the 45s to the 35s and 700s. So stay tuned! ;)
@@RawansReviews I liked it.
