Bose is historically a benchmark brand for its great consistency and quality in exchange for a price considerably higher than average. Therefore, it becomes an essential requirement to take the magnifying glass and analyze its technical specifications to get an idea of the Bose QuietComfort 35 II<\/strong> that we are going to present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we enter into the great battle of the search for Achieving perfection in noise cancellation<\/strong>, many of us are clear that Bose has been leading this for many years. Without ever giving up, Bose has wanted to surpass itself by bringing us the evolution of the QC 35<\/strong> in its second version with some new features that we will be revealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

General characteristics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Compared to the previous model, the QuietComfort 35, we could say that the main difference that brings us<\/strong> Bose is the introduction of Google Assistant<\/strong> as a form of evolution to the \u201csmart headset\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Google Assistant invites us to download the Bose app as soon as we turn on the equipment<\/strong> and this will allow us not only to interact with the mobile and configure a series of initial parameters, but we will also have the guarantee of having a completely updated headset with the latest improvements, without any difficulty for even the least technologically versed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having a Google Home system at home<\/strong> It is a plus when choosing the QC35 II, but it must be stressed that this product is completely autonomous, and can use the full potential of the assistant without the need for third parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sound quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is easy to expect high sound quality from a headset with these features, although we must admit that There are other models that are superior to the QuietComfort 35 II in this respect.<\/strong> with some margin, such as for example the Sony WH 1000XM3<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To this we must add the lack of support for Bluetooth standards<\/strong> Qualcomm's aptX and aptX HD and Sony's LDAC, another aspect in which the Sony WH-1000X M3 also surpass the QuietComfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even so, We must emphasize that the sound is extremely good.<\/strong>, compatible with AAC and a fairly neutral response with emphasis on the highs. We are not going to have a negative experience at any time, unless we have a strong predisposition to listen to music with a tendency towards bass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does active noise cancellation work well?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If there's one thing the QuietComfort 35 II excels at, it's shine above the competition<\/strong> is its superior quality in noise cancellation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can't say that there is a great improvement with respect to the previous version, but those who have enjoyed it can assure us that this feature is, without a doubt, the star element that Bose offers us with these headphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the study tests, we are talking about a Virtually complete cancellation from 12 dB onwards<\/strong>, which is very surprising and will delight those who use them for their daily routine, especially on public transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design, materials and finish<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is easy to see that the design follows exactly the same line as its predecessors, in a rather spartan format, whose main component is plastic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can be a little discouraging, given that most headphones in this range incorporate other, firmer materials at certain key breaking points. The only aesthetic detail that differentiates them from their predecessors is the button to access Google Assistant<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Bose

We could argue that Bose has preferred to favour weight in wireless headphones (just 236 grams) over durability, but, although at first glance, it may give the impression of a cheap headset, It is not a low quality polymer<\/strong>, but you can feel in your hand a fairly high robustness and a feeling of solidity that is uncommon in electronic equipment made from this material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pads are quite wide and spongy<\/strong>, with the ability to rotate obliquely for a perfect fit thanks to Bose's TriPort structure. For all these reasons, we are faced with a very comfortable headset, which is on par with most of its competitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connectivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Being wireless, they have the latest Bluetooth version but lack certain audio coding standards<\/strong> that we discussed earlier. In addition, include NFC<\/strong> to make pairing with any mobile phone within close range much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among its accessories, we will have the micro-USB cable for charging, both directly to the power supply and connecting to a PC, as well as the Soundlink II audio cable<\/strong> if we want to listen directly without latency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Battery life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As we have been observing, there are many elements that are shared with the previous model, and exactly the same thing happens with the battery: we are talking about a autonomy around 20 hours<\/strong>The 100% recovery time for the % is just a couple of hours, but since it doesn't have USB-C, fast charging is well below our expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously it is not the same to be using the maximum functions of the headset at the same time, such as activated noise cancellation or wireless mode. If we connect by audio cable its duration will be extended to 40 hours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microphone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although we are talking about a high-performance microphone, it is not a remarkable element since it is unable to remove ambient noise<\/strong> effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes ok We will not notice this lack of quality in our calls<\/strong> or in the use of the Google Assistant, there will be certain extreme situations in which our receiver may not hear us clearly. Still, we could insist that it is a balanced and above average model<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who might be interested in these headphones?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It is quite clear that this headset is specifically designed for a user profile that uses their headphones to move around the city on a regular basis, in Highly noisy and disturbing environments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to supreme noise cancellation and above-average features, we can enjoy our music without any loss of quality, as if we were at home<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to make clear that if we already have a QC of 35, The jump to this version is not very significant<\/strong>, and we could say that the update is not worth it due to the few improvements it introduces.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
