WIRED Prodigious noise cancellation. Spacious, controlled, and convincing sound. Far less conspicuous than previously. TIRED So-so battery life and no wireless charging. Could sound more dynamic. Codec compatibility limited. Many credible rivals.
According to Bose, this bravura performance is thanks to its CustomTune technology. When the earbuds are taken from their charging case and placed in the user’s ear, a brief tone burst assesses the specific properties of the ear canal. In under half a second, the QCE II take the information and set themselves up, for both audio and ANC, to best complement the wearer’s specific characteristics.
At the opposite end of the frequency range, treble sounds attack politely. Bose has erred on the side of caution here, but only a little. There’s sufficient bite and shine to the top end, just about, and certainly no suggestion of hardness even at volume. Some listeners may hanker after a little more high-end aggression, but then again, some listeners have never heard of tinnitus.
The Bose consolidate the entire frequency range solidly, with a smooth, bump-free journey from top to bottom. Overall tonality is probably just fractionally on the warm side of neutral when EQ settings are left well alone. Naturally, it’s possible to skew the presentation to your taste within the app, although to be honest, you’ll be hard-pressed to make a genuine improvement. Different is about the best you can hope for.
