This is my honest review as a sound designer of the Bose QC 35 ii noise cancelling headphones. And spoiler... they are absolutely fabulous. Perfect for travelers - but also soundguys! Still in 2019 that is!
The video includes a thorough product review, my experience with owning the QC35 for over a year, ANC test and a bineural audio test (audio demo), so you can actually hear the sound quality yourself! (remember headphones though)
Visit your local store for the real experience of the sound quality :-)
Hope you enjoy this review - leave a like if you did!

Thank you for your review and time testing these. I love your editing style and the way you’ve done this video. I’m going to take the plunge and order. Cheers!
Howdy from San Pedro, CA!! Great review!! I pulled the trigger on these and I’m happy I did! Comfort and noise cancelling are my priorities!
Cheers!
Great to hear David! And thanks a lot! QC35-squad!
Is it still going great?
Really loved the flow of the video. Really well made. Loved the positive vibe too
Great review, thanks. 👍 I am glad you pointed out the “linear” qualities of the Bose headphones. Over the years I have owned dozens of headphones from all the great manufacturers. However, there is something very special about the sound stage of Bose. Even on my Bose TV sound bar you can hear the difference. I wasn’t sure exactly why this was. However, you helped clarify what I was hearing and didn’t understand. I am not sure I am getting my point across clearly, but you helped me understand a little bit more about my headphones. Thanks. 👍 p.s. Like and subscribed.
nice review, and nice detail on the FR. thanks for sharing!
this review is so helpful, i just ordered a new pair after watching this! thanks for helping me make this decision!
You surprised me bro at your understanding of music reproduction. Thank you!
Awesome review man, i can’t wait to buy mine, I’m going to get the updated QC45 they announced just a few days ago
It's 2022 now and these headphones still rock.
Managed to get a pair of these for £40 on an ebay auction, the headphones were described as "For parts or not working" and the images provided looked awful and I guess I was the only one willing to risk £40 to see if they are in decent condition, I even asked the seller and they didn't know if they worked or not. The headphones came working but in such a disgusting state where the earpads and the headband were covered in filth. I extensively cleaned the headband along with the rest of the shell and bought the cheapest replacement earpads on amazon (theyre all basically the same until you go £20
Great review! Thanks
Wonderful review, very in depth plus it’s very good bcs you’re a music guy who knows about sound so if you say the sound is good then it is.
Super good review, thank you for the effort!
Great content buddy. I used this headphone as monitor headphone as well. Keep it up!
Got these a few days ago and I absolutely love them!
Great vid mate!
thank you for your review it has been super helpful
Your reviews are unique👍🏻
LE ROUX LR thanks a lot man! Appreciate it! Thanks for watching 😊
Insane review dud you’ve got a New sub keep up
Rizk Isla thanks a lot dude! Super glad you liked it! ❤️
Nice , very useful review. I just bought mine and agree with your insights. I’m a singer/songwriter and love the linearity, no hyped bass, in my studio I usually work with my Sony 7506’s. These Bose QC 35 are real close in quality.
Hey. I have those headphones aswell and I'm a beginner at producing music, but whenever I turn off the ANC while using 3,5mm to 2,5mm jacks it gets much quieter and feels like cuts off the high frequencies. Do you get that too or is it maybe right way to produce (with anc off)? Cause for example in my car I can hear that the high freqs might need a little boost but at the same time they sound too harsh on other audio systems. I dunno I'm just asking should I turn off the ANC while making stuff or doesn't matter?
Very informative review. Thanks.
Listening to this video on them! Yes the 45 in Best Buy and loved them but these were on sale. Ready to take on a trip!
thanks so much for this review, very helpful
I recently went into a local electronic store wanting to buy some "cheap" bluetooth headphones for my Galaxy S20 which has no headphone jack, and after testing almost everything from low to high values the Bose just amazed me! I heard details in a song that I haven't heard with my other headphones like he said :D And they are sooo comfortable even with my glasses!
So I went from getting some 50-100€ headphones to getting the QC 35's for ~230€ but that was totally worth it 😊
So nowww i comeee to youuu, with oppppen armmss
Haha! Me too! I actually bought the JBL $30 ones and was like this is not it.
@@JustAGrl007 Haha nice 😅 Great you found the right ones now 👍
Great review with great details
Fantastic review!!!! 😀🌟👍🌟👍🌟
Great video, thank you for the information !
You're most welcome, Matthew! Thanks for your comment :-)
Best music related purchase I’ve ever made, hands down. I feel like it’s one of those headphones that will still be good in 30 or 40 years. Good headphones stays good for years and years and years and I don’t think I’ll ever change them for anything, they’re my go to for proper music listening, pair them with the AirPods Pro for everyday chores and you’ve got yourself a heavenly setup
Just purchased them Monday for $180. Love them already. Lightweight and comfortable.
@@nickhall7995 how did u get them so cheap
Great review. The QC35ii's are 'industry standard', they seem to have the 'x' factor too. Who cares if they have 'old skool' buttons, they work well, the Sony's (Sony is a brand liked in our house), can, by all accounts, be problematic when using the swipe/touch feature. I've a friend who uses QC35's with an aviation mic and loves them - light aeroplane use is a tough gig - when he's not flying, he uses them as ordinary headphones (although they're far from ordinary).
I got my second pair rn! I found the first ones ( QC 35) left at a gas station where I worked, we almost threw them out! I took them and they served me well for 5 years! And they are still working, don't get me wrong, but the headband got wet and started to look really bad, so I decided to buy new ones, and don't regret it at all!
The first ones were manufactured in 2016 and till this day they work flawlessly! The battery usage time is still the same, sound is still perfect, and I use them for hours every day! Only thing, take care of them, u can replace the earmuffs, but the not the headband ( for original one) and mine got really not good looking 😅.
So if you are considering buying them, do it! Even not new ones, as I got my second ( QC 35 II) ones. U won't regret it.
really interesting when you talked about the about the frequency response! Quite surprising...
Glad to hear that, Green Man! Thanks!
I'm not an audiophile (at least not yet), so I really like the frequency response you get from the QC35. It's not 100% linear at all, but the most linear I've tried in the consumer headphone world - which makes them quite interesting to do sound designs on!
Is that frequency response valid with or without the Noise Cancelling? Because the response is different in my experience.
Yeah
That was a real pro moment
"Cuz I'm a sound dude" you got yourself a sub lol!!
Something that never gets mentioned, if you put the NC on low, that feature is supposed to get rid of wind.
It actually works. I have tested with my bicycle. It blocks all winds my wired apple headphones can't.
I like the old school style with the buttons going to get a pair
Thanks for this buddy :)
Chalie Chuong you’re very welcome 😊
I agree with you. These headphones allowed my ears to hear things I couldn't before. I think it's mainly because of the ANC. But the quality of the sound blows my mind everytime I listen to them. They've definitely turned me into a "music snob" in a sense lol I don't really wanna listen to music if it doesn't sound as good as it does in my headphones.
Craig Parker
If you really like to lose yourself to the music then you should check out the Nuraphones. You would be completely blown away.
Are there still any ANC problems? I need them on the plane and when in the car, I've read that they made the ANC worse through an update.
Should I get the Sony WH-X1000xm3 or the QC35 ii?
Really helpful video, maybe an update? Or maybe a review of the newest bose headphones
ANC suck on my QC35ii. I’m upgrading to fw 4.8.1 right now and I hope it’ll help. I updated to fw 4.5.2 from fw 3.1.8 which improved ANC a bit but sound quality diminished quite a bit to where I almost have to turn it all the way up for it to be enjoyable listening volume. Anyone know lose experiencing this? Anyone, please help. Would much appreciate any feedback? Thank you.
What was your experience with the new firmware compared to the 3.1.8? I have read terrible reviews of the 4.5.2 firmware. Cheers
Hi, Rozilio, what’s your current firmware version? After the ANC-gate with 4.5 I was able to downgrade it to 4.3 but I’m wondering if 4.8 finally manage to solve the issue and recover the original ANC performance. I’d appreciate your comments
Great review. I have them and Bose 700 I love
Hey start flexing to your friends maybe they will buy it
Hi! Great review, would you say that the Bose 700 are just as good for music production as these? Thank you in advance!
700 is trash.I have both
They are great I got them two years ago, however nobody talks about the Bluetooth distance capabilities and it is annoying if you move farther that 15 mts it starts to beep…for signal.
Hey. I have those headphones aswell and I'm a beginner at producing music, but whenever I turn off the ANC while using 3,5mm to 2,5mm jacks it gets much quieter and feels like cuts off the high frequencies.

Thank you for the review, getting that from a sound engineer adds value. Would appreciate if you can help me understand if we can pair 2 mobile phones to it at same time and switch in between them swiftly while on calls. How efficient & practically easy is the switchover. If I am on call on one phone and have to attend the call on other one how do we do it. Your practical experience on this would be of great help to many looking for this answer.
Stærkt review, dog synes jeg nu det er rart med fysiske knapper, touch bliver hurtigt lidt bøvlet.
Har du haft problemer med din mic i ved opkald?
Great review. Do these sound better than a pair of wired linear headphones like the 50mx ?
I think QC35ii is better than ath-50mx, 50mx is a good headphone but it is just overhyped. I have both and QC35ii is my go to headphone, comfortability, bluetooth support for 2 devices at the same time, the size is not so bulky as 50mx and Sony Xm3, sound is linear which you can use in recording and audio editing.
Does the audio change when the noise canceling is off compared to when it is on. If yes, how does the noise canceling effect the audio?
Sorry for the late reply! Yes it does change. The bass gets a bit more "soft" and indeterminable. And in general the low frequencies are not as powerful. And of course your ears also get a sense of space and reverb, because you can hear more of the room you're in. A little hard to explain, but I hope that helps!
Actually you can put the noise cancellation off on the bose app :)
Thanks for the review. I just copped some from the Pawn shop for $90 like new.
Which one would you say is better overall in sound quality these or sony xm4?
you sold me these 🙌🏼 thanks
Hey man love your vids. But what do u think about the diff of sound quality between this bose and the sony xm3?? Still figuring out to buy which headphone. Thx.
Hey man, thanks for leaving a comment! Sorry for the late reply! That's a good question! In my opinion the xm3's has more treble, which I actually kind of miss from the Bose. But on the other hand the Bose has a more detailed sound (you can separate what's going on more easily), which I prefer more :)
I have both XM2 and QC35II. Even on the XM2 the Sonys are better on ANC and sound quality. Bose though for comfort. so On the go i pick up the Bose, but for higher quality listening i pick up the Sony, set my android to LDAC and rock FLacs. Soundguys have a review on these and the Sony's came out on top for quality. but yeah, comfort and on the go package goes to QC35II. review here th-cam.com/video/vC6m4iVy_Vc/w-d-xo.html
How to they sound wired, when you are editing audio or video? Do they underperform wired? Thanks
Great review
Thanks Carla! Glad you liked it 😊
woo I got some! Should be here within 1 week or so. I actually prefer buttons cause I like the gimmick there. I also like having the option to turn noise cancellation off. I heard that the newer versions might not have it. I've always had my eye on these specific ones so I am glad I get to try them soon. Getting it since I will be traveling soon and since I am unable to use regular earbuds.
I have them, and they're hands down one of the greatest purchases i've done.
If you'll get a headphone you gotta do it right and for a pretty big 'investment' like this, youre gonna get a lot out of it.
Perfect for the amount of traveling i do aswell.
Though the soundtest dousnt really do it justice. There's way less bass lol
hello ; does the noise cancelling block someone talking ? and snoring ?
Just bought these. To be delivered tomorrow....
What firmware is your QC35ii on?
I bought a 2nd pair because they were so cheap on ebay and they are floor models, I easily figured out how to disassemble to take that security button off but the microphone doesnt work and Im not sure if it ever worked since I bought them, If it didnt come with a speaker because it was a floor model although that would make no sense. Does anyone know how to repair replace the interior mic or have a video?? I love these headphone and love even more that I have 2 pair!!
wow, I discovered your video, I like this review. Thank you! I have same and I like it in 2023, still the best. What do you think? How many years live the battery? 5-6? THX. :)
Hi man, great video ! So... in your opinion, between this and the Sony h900n, which is the best to listen punk rock music ?
Tiago Jesus, hey! Well, in terms of audio quality I must admit I like the Bose better! But if you’re into more bass, which punk rock music often sounds awesome with imo 🤘🏽 then the H900n is quite good. They are substantially cheaper than the Bose as well - at least in my country.
The noise canceling is not as good as the Bose though - or the Sony 1000xm3. But it’s better than on the h900n’s competition in the price bracket.
Amazing!!
i like them even for guitar practicing!
This video is very high quality, but there are too many cuts in my opinion.
Great review!
Are the still good to buy in 2021 though? For 210€?
yes!
Good review but so much chopping of the content. Ruins the fluidity
Shoaib Ahmed thanks man - yeah I know. I might have been a little nervous filming this and ma..a..a..de i..it pretty over-edited. Hope it was informative and you enjoyed it despite all the crazy cutting :)
@@RozilioMusic keep it going man
That's like your opinion man. I came here for info; not judging video production. I found it useful
Is it a good product for use in deezer or tilda?
Hi, thanks for this video. I have this headphones and I love it but a friend of mine who is a guitarist asked me for a suggestion and I do not if this headphones are suggested for guitarist. Could you give me your feedback please? thanks
As an audiophile myself, I can say this headphones are linear. I noticed this the first time I used them. If you turn off the ANC they get even more linear turning the low frequencies a little bit down. That's why I use the 3.5mm jack cable when I'm recording (I have the 1st gen). 10/10
Hey. I have those headphones aswell and I'm a beginner at producing music, but whenever I turn off the ANC while using 3,5mm to 2,5mm jacks it gets much quieter and feels like cuts off the high frequencies.

I dunno I'm just asking should I turn off the ANC while making stuff or doesn't matter?
@@armaga144 These QC35ii have something that improves the frequency response when you turn on the ANC. Sorry, I don't really remember the terms, and I don't know if it is like an integrated software. But it is when the ANC is ON (and the headphones are wired) that you get the flat frequency response. If you turn off the ANC, they sound wrong, the FR gets very messy. So you better keep it on. I think this was explained in the review of the youtuber DMS.
And, by the way, although they can be powered by a phone, a good amp improves the sound a lot, I honestly wasn't expecting it because I was told that if headphones have good volume, then you don't need the amp, but it turns out that more power allows the bass to rumble as intended, and the highs to sound better, even the soundstage gets bigger.
I'm still impressed by the QC35ii 3 years later.
does it make sens to use them wired to an audio interface ? I can't connect them with BT to my desktop :)
You could absolutely do that! You might need an adapter from mini jack to jack depending on the interface :)
problem with a bineural audio test is, that I'd need a good pair of headphones to listen to it... all while I'm looking for a good pair of headphones
That is very true! And even then, your good pair of headphones would color the sound too. I would say though that the binaural audio test is ok for figuring out how the headphones handle noise canceling but it’s always best to hear them for yourself in real life :)
@@RozilioMusic Thanks for this review! I used the Roland 300 before and received the Bose headphones today! I read a lot about updating the headphones might ruin the ANC. Would you advise me to never update them or did you update them yourself?
Which firmware version did you use?
Are there still any ANC problems? I need them on the plane and when in the car, I've read that they made the ANC worse through an update.
Should I get the Sony WH-X1000xm3 or the QC35 ii?
I bought both with WikiBuy for the price of one of these. Love em both one PC one TV....
What are your priorities? I can tell you which ones to buy but first tell me your priorities
Also you should wait for the Sony wh1000xm4 i saw leaks of the price on them through Walmarts stock it is 349.00$!!!
@@1brianmorales1 Hey, I bought a Sony WH-XB900n 2-3 weeks ago, it's really good and the price is also good.
XM4 or XM3 if you prioritize ANC and more functions over comfort, less sweaty ears in hot weather, and user friendly (with physical buttons). On the other hand, if you want higher comfort, less ear fatigue, easier control buttons (physical buttons are better than tough in my opinion), go for QC 35 ii. It depends on what you prioritize. :)
I force more on bass. I herd they have good bass. Do the bose qc 35 2 have good bass.
Just need one statement to guarantee, they are properly EQ’d for music production???
The hand to ear function to listen would be nice. But buttons over touch control any day. Nothing is as fast and reliable.
I have Sony’s with touch and lemme tell you it’s genuinely mad fucking annoying sometimes, it’s super finicky and hard to use imo. And there’s a massive lag on the right hand function aswell as swiped
does this support dolby atmos in apple music??????
Heyyy hvaså fellow dansker. Fedt review. Har lige fået mit par idag. Elsker dem allerede. Må jeg spørge om du har nogle tips til at få en fod ind i lyddesign branchen i danmark. Har haft musikproduktion som hobby i snart 10 år, men stadig ikke tjent nogle penge på det endu. Drømmen er at lave musik eller lyddesign til film eller spil :)
Question tho. Does these have sound leakage ?
I bought this one’s before You reviews / And now im so happy i did !!!! After you reviews ,😂
I heard the firmware got updated and messed with the noise cancelling and made it worse; ultimately making this product worse “ coincidentally “ after new Bose headphones coming out. I haven’t seen anyone actually complain about it and then make a new sound cancelling test yet though
Wow fuck that’s cheesy, I haven’t noticed a decrease myself but I know I hate the design of the 700s so there’s that
Thanks for the long term review?
I have it for 30 days. The microphone performs poorly, it amplifies all the sounds around me and the other person listening to me hears the noise more. I kept the noise cancelling low but still the heavy noise even at home.
I think u deserve more subs
Buy one online by Fnac for € 169 but without the sales box but with & in the original black Bose box an no it's not a fake but a real one and i'm erry happy with it. Great review Rozilio.
Funny fact i wear this headphones while wachting your video. And they life savers for people who are highly sensitive for loud noises. I wear them im bed to go to sleep they so comfortbale you forget you wear headphones sometimes and they no strong preasure on your headAlso Best Headphones while Streaming , you no cables that can pulled out by mistake and still can be used als normal haedphones. Con : the 2,5mm Jack
Would you recommend this for someone who likes base and to feel rumbling from music WITHOUT hearing anything? That someone is me 🙏🏾😅
Yup
Sony WH series have better low end response.
If you don't mind hearing high frequencies like a racing car and sacrifice that for comfort go for QC 35 ii. If you want to isolate yourself from all other sounds go for Sony XM4.
FYI. It's called a flat frequency response. Not a linear one.
Thanks
Listening to this on my qc 35 ii s🤣
Watching this review with my Bose q35’s on .
me too xD
@@zirak93-2 hi I just got mine a couple days ago and wanted to know that if you put your ANC to high and don't play any music can you also clearly hear the voices of people around you because I can and wanted to know if it's normal
@@joshuacooray7786 It's normal, but they should be diminished. With my bose, they get much lower. Also, the background noises become much lower. But once you play music, even calm classical music, the background voices should disappear. Unfortunately, with Bose QC 35 ii technology, they are not able to cancel out high-frequency noises like a train coming towards you, like the Sony Xm4 which are much better than the Bose.
But from my experience, Bose gives you more comfort and you can wear them longer without any ear fatigue. Also, they don't make your ears so sweaty in warm weather.
Nevertheless, they need to work on their ANC because Sony is superior at this part. Also, with their headphones, the volume needs to almost be at max to have an enjoyable volume. That comes from a person that hates music with very high volume. What's normal volume level with other headphones, including Xm4, must be at almost max with the Boses. I just hope these issues will be fixed when they release their Bose QC 45.
@@zirak93-2 Thanks so much for the in depth reply !!! This really helps me out specially since u seem to know what your talking about thanks 😁 yes I agree I also need to put my volume to a rather high level to have an enjoyable time , but also I wanted to know more if the headphones sound louder at max volume when their used through Blutooth when compared to using them wired ? Cuz when I use my Bose QC 35ii wired it doesn't get as loud as if I were using it switched on and through Blutooth , especially for TH-cam videos using wired is less loud than if I were using Blutooth
@@joshuacooray7786 Yeah, I tried the wire once just to check the volume issue. The volume level was similar to how my wired Apple headphones worked. The volume was enjoyable at 40-50 %, but once I switched to Bluetooth I had to go up to 70-80 % to get the same volume. Looks like is something Bose has deliberately done and I think the reason is to avoid their customer to listen to music at high volume for a prolonged time since it can damage your ears. At least, that's my speculation. You'll not find this problem on Sony's XM4.
I think this is something the company decides to do or not. I also have a pair of wireless Jay headphones with the same issue. Looks like bot Bose and Jay does this to make their customer avoid listening to music at a high volume for a longer time. What's really the con with this is that if you have a track with lower volume, you won't be able to hear this on a satisfactory volume, unfortunately.
what’s the difference between mk2 and mk1
Mk2 has a dedicated bixby button which also works with google assistant! If you don’t want to use it for that you can also set it to control the noice cancelling (high / low / off)
Are these headphones made mainly of plastic?
Yes, but they don't feel cheap or easy to break!
I completely hear what you’re saying about how easily they scratch, I’ve only dropped mine once in the year I’ve had them from about 3ft onto a tarmac surface and damn 3 nasty little marks however they still work flawlessly..
Google Pixel 5 anyone ?
Hi, is it still worth it to buy in 2020?
Hi Anthony, thanks for you comment, I would say yes! The Sony 1000XM3 is still the main competitor in my opinion, but I prefer the Bose over those. The new model is Bose 700, but I think the QC35 holds up really well to this day.
If you're interested in in-ears as well, the new AirPods Pro is a really good option. It's crazy how good the noise cancelling is in those, considering the size. But yeah, if you're looking for over-ear headphones I would say the QC35 is definitely still a buy in 2020 :)
Did you just test the sound quality with regular TH-cam videos with low quality sound? Or was it YT Music?
DeTTaN TV thanks for you comment man! I’ve tested the sound quality on everything from streaming to 192 khz 24-bit wav files. But for TH-cam copyright purposes I chose to showcase the Bose through this music! Also the music in the video is being recorded with bineural microphones I’m wearing in my ears under the Bose to give people an idea of the sound quality - but it’s worth noting that the real deal is quite different and sounds way better :-)
RealestRealist haha yeah exactly!
sound quality is better on youtube music?
Hi. I really would like something to block traffic noise while I sleep. In your video, were they blocking the sound of the cars going by or just the wind? Your test wasn't quite long enough to tell. I'd love some advice and hoping you'll tell me they will help! Thanks.
Hi Melanie, in my experience they are perfect for blocking traffic noise! And the battery should be able to get you through at least one full night if not two :-)
Hope that helps!
@@RozilioMusic Thank you so much. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment back.
@@RozilioMusic I just wanted to let you know I almost didn't buy these because other people had said they weren't that great for noise cancelling for dynamic sounds. After watching your video and getting your response I decided to buy them (sorry I'm based in New Zealand and couldn't use an affiliate link if you have one). These will literally save my sanity. I was able to get to sleep in peace last night and not hear any traffic at all. I had the best sleep in my new house and feel so much better about life. Thanks again for responding. I really appreciate it. Good luck with your channel! Keep up the great work.
Headies of any sort would not help my head sleep. If I have this issue I warm up two plugs of bluetack. That sorts it!
Hey +rozilio ! I've changed headphones like 4 times in the last 2 years; I got a deal on a ATH m40x and they were really good BUT NOW I WEAR GLASSES and I can't use them for more than an hour! Are this Bose a buy for comfort then? even with glasses?
AlmostGenius hey! Thanks for your comment. I would say yes - even with glasses. My glasses’ frame is pretty thin, so if yours are quite thick it might be different. Also depending on your ears shape ofc. I haven’t tried any headphones with better comfort though! The Bose is class leading in comfort. You can get a hot spot on top of your head after a couple hours of use - but then you can just readjust them slightly :-)
@@RozilioMusic top of the head shouldn't be a problem; its my ears that really hurt. I think my frames are not very thick, actually kinda thin when compared with my sunglasses. I think I'm gonna go for it and buy it; specially now that I can get them new for under 200€. Thanks mate.
You mentioned ATH-M4OX .These are monitoring headphones for studios not consumer headphones .They are ultra flat and despite Bose being fairly linear they are still coloured and really used for already recorded music .Different breed altogether .
Karl true! Thanks for mentioning that. If you’re looking for headphones dedicated to music production, sound design or other professional audio work, something like the M40X, M50X, Beyerdynamic 880 or AKG K701 would be great options. I personally like the characteristics of the Bose - but also have a lot of monitors and other headphones that I work on professionally. The Bose has become the headphone I know the sound of the best and it’s therefore my go-to for both casual listening and audio work at the moment (but that’s my personal headphone philosophy). It’s also very common to have one headphone for either one :)
What this video made me think about. That objects cannot be well, only good. XD
