    My LG V60 has its own DAC and 3.5mm jack. Works for me.

    I have the Q45's. I agree with what you're saying here. Fair on all points. For me, I wanted the headphones that were the best at noise cancelling. And the 700's having 11 modes of ANC did not appeal to me. I wanted simple yet GREAT ANC. These deliver on that end. Sound is not gonna blow you away, I agree. Last thing I'd say after 3 months of wearing them everyday all day, would be that they are very comfortable. Great vid. )

      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.

    You are spot on the EQ. Without adjustment voice calls sound too sharp.

    Its been 1 year since I am using these Headphones and they are the best in terms of Comfort and Audio, the AAC Codec sounds damm good and Lossless Audio support goes till 96kHz and the audio sounds so lively and good. They sound clear and crisp even when I have used them for gaming but it lacks little bass but thats passable for me, cause bass heavy audio on this sound just about right and Dolby Atmos Support really works daam well. So yes I would highly recommend someone to buy this if they wanna experience BOSE on a budget, however I would also recommend to hold off for another year and buy the new QC Headphones.

    i was wondering why they were giving a huge discount on the QC45 if you traded in their old products. it's safe to say QC45 was a bust compared to the QC35ii.

    I think they are awesome headphones, what’s make them really great in my opinion is the adaptive EQ which make them sound awesome at low volume with rich bass and highs , mids very clear , I think they are great headphones for all time .
    Also the ANC and transparency mode work great too .
    You never go wrong with the Bose QC45

      Yeah, I saw this and thought, “That kind of audio codec isn’t even available beyond a very small subset of Android devices.” 99.9% of the people who buy these cans are just looking for comfortable, noise-cancelling headphones on the airplane or on the morning commute (that have halfway decent sound quality). The number of consumers who are listening listening to these headphones, squinting their eyes and comparing them to lossless codecs on a daily basis is almost vanishingly small. The vast majority of consumers are just streaming Spotify anyway.

    I’ve tried every headphone on the market and my #1 favorite is the quietcomfort 2023 model. The 45’s are similar but you get the latest model with the 2023’s. Sound from these are amazing and they are extremely comfortable. I agree touch controls suck.

  • @twistedfantasyy
    @twistedfantasyy 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    yes. they really do mean "quietcomfort". the ANC of the qc45 was just as good than the xm5s i had and the comfort was FAR superior. the reason why i let go of the xm5 was that the earcups were too shallow and i found the clamping force to be too much.
    i also got it for just $170 so it was a no brainer for me to just get them and I've enjoyed these the most because i can actually wear them for hours without getting super uncomfortable.

      @abineshsaravanan3485 Apparently Verizon had a 75% off sale last week. These were included in the sale. The original price was around $330-$340. The sale or promo code "gifts75off" knocked them down to $82. I immediately stopped what I was doing after ordering and went directly to the store and got them. In case they changed their minds 😏. Rumor has it the code still works on some devices too.

    I’m surprised the new QC45. Headphones (not the Ultra), still have Bluetooth 5.1, as well as the same 24 hour battery life. Makes the qc45 model sound like a good deal maybe.

    I feel like bose scammed us with Qc 45 where they launched qc45 with no option to change NC level where QC35 had it and the new QC has just software features which can be given to the qc45s or replace the QC45s with the new one if the software is impossible to update.

    I will not buy headphones that have touch controls, Also I don't care for head tracking, auto power on functions or even how amazing the Noise cancelling is. all these things are just gimmicky distractions and frustrations for me, just give me the latest bluetooth, great sound quality, an excellent battery life, and a standard 3.5mm wired connection, Job done.
