So the highly anticipated Bose QC45’s are finally here. Now overall the Bose QC45’s are a great pair of headphones to consider… but they really excel when it comes to their comfort. But today we’re going to see how the QC45’s stack up to the Sony 1000XM4’s… and I’m also going to lightly compare them to the Sony XB900N’s… cause the XB900N’s are on their way out cause the XB910N’s are finally here as well.

Great review. It told me what I needed to know before buying one of these this week. Thanks!

Love that you talk about ear cup size, that's really important for me since my ears hurt fast when they are too small.

[miguelalonso]

if the bose had an auto pause feature when you take off the headphones and a stronger base it would be perfect.

I am a proud owner of xm4 and I love it. It is very comfortable for me but then it does heat up my ears easily especially when I live in hotter and more humid country. Audio quality is also good but then it is still a bit muddy for me and I prefer the sound of bose's.

Different comparison but I own the QC45’s. My 6 y/o 35’s were having problems. So I bought the XM5’s. I called Bose and they were kind enough to send me a new pair of 45’s. The xm5 had a little more power is seemed but the Bose were good enough (especially for free) and I much prefer the real buttons to the touch sensitive actions of the Sonys . Returned the XM5’s

Please cover duolink speakerbuds, nuraphones and vie shair headphones. BTW amazing content

I have the 900 n and the only thing I don’t like is the noise cancellation and the plastic material isn’t my favourite especially on the touch pad also they get a little warm but other than that they are great

[Mickieshelton]

I tried to buy the QC 45 with my Dell account and it said it wasn't shipping till Dec 23rd..lol. I bought a Tab S7 plus instead.

[callouu]

What headphone stands do you use for these videos? I’d love to grab one!

[prestonmelkerson]

Can anyone answer this? How do these perform at the gym with sweating and noise cancelation

[lillyroberts]

I just returned my first ANC headphones; the Bose NC700 becasue they randomly kept disconnecting and then they wouldn't pair to the app. I've been look at the xm4s but before I make the sony switch I'm curious if people are still having issues with thier bose devices after firmware updates.

XB910N is nerfed version of XB900N 😢. I was waiting for it as replacement for my XB900N.

[jorgeluisfernandez]

Please help me, between qc45 and 700s which is better in terms of sound quality? Thanks

[georgmc]

kinda sad how the mic of the sony 1000mx4 is so much better than the one of the sennheiser momentum 3 even though they're cheaper (cause i want the sennheiser ones)

[ernestodelatorre]

What would you rather have comfort with some cabin pressure q45’s or no cabin pressure with less comfort Sony xm4 ‘s ?

[victorv]

Can I get a decent bass from Bose QC 45 by playing around with equalizer settings?

[rainerkemper]

I have used the Sony wh-1000 first version for a long time but my ear are hurting after a few hours. I have tried the WH-1000XM4 and my ears start hurting too. So I'm actually using Sony WI-1000XM2 which are working fine. I need to try the Bose QC45 now that it looks like they are more spacious. I was very disappointed on my Jabra Elite on the airplane.

[ratinthehat_]

The xm4s disappointed me definitely prefer the xm3s. Might check out the BOSE one's

[sealife]

I got listeners fatigue from the sony and had to return. The bose is way more comfortable and sound quality is less piercing and warmer

[pierrekuster]

Thanks for this video. I really want to use the XM4 instead of the NC 700 but I can´t live with a pair of headphones that amplifies surrounding sound when on a phone call or teams meeting. Do any of you have any settings that solve this issue?
