Trying to figure out WHICH pair of Bose Headphones I Bought!

So a few weeks ago I was aimlessly browsing around the electronics section of Sams Club, when I came across these Bose headphones. They were labeled as “Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones” and were priced at $279, which got my attention really quick. The Bose QC35 II’s go for $350, and not a dollar less. It is extremely hard to find the QC35 II’s discounted anywhere. So I was frantically trying to figure out whether these headphones were the QC35 II’s or not.
In the midst of my furious online searches, I came across the same headphones on the Sam’s Club website at a further discounted price of $230, at which point I decided I needed to buy these, if not for anything else at least to figure out whats going on.
So in this video I’ll be unboxing these Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones, and trying to figure out if they are actually the QC35 II’s or something else!

I have just purchased the same model at Costco roughly a month ago for $160.00. Its the Bose QC 35 Series 1. All specs are the same as the QC 35 Series Ii. The only difference between the two is the additional button on the the left ear cup of the QC 35 II for Goggle and Alexa which can be also used for the noise cancelling function to Off, Low or High if not using the Goggle or Alexa assistant and the airplane plug is no longer provided on the QC 35 II.

Great review! What is the extra button on the Q35II do?

Bro, the one you have bought later are the QC-35, 1st generation, which did not had a noise cancellation adjustment/google assistant button.

BTW at $230 it's a incredible purchase!

By they way, are you willing to part with the silver one since you have 2 of them?

[ahmedzulkarnine]

Hey Bud, Thats the QC35 not the QC35II. Big give away is the Airplane headphone jack and the case it comes in. Also the Box will say QC 35 II.

Can you please re-test Bose quite comfort 35ii after the new firmware 4.5.2?
ANC high mode is barely the same as the mode!
RTINGS has confirmed that ANC performance has decreased by 4 dB!
Bose is denying this!!
It's really disappointing from Bose that attitude to ruin a good product for the favour of it's new model..
