First page image of the manual for QuietComfort 45

The Bose QuietComfort 45 headphones stand out for their optimal comfort and ergonomic design, allowing for long listening sessions without discomfort. With an impressive battery life of 24 hours of continuous playback, they are ideal for on-the-go users looking to enjoy their music without interruption. The noise-canceling technology, combined with a noise-suppressing microphone, ensures superior sound quality during calls and listening. However, these headphones have some drawbacks. Their weight of 429 g may be considered relatively heavy for prolonged use, which could cause discomfort. Additionally, their price, often high compared to other models, may not suit all budgets. While Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity is convenient, some users have reported connection issues, particularly with older devices. The modern and sleek design in White Smoke is a plus, although it may not appeal to everyone. The use of a wired charging case may also be seen as a disadvantage for those who prefer wireless charging. Finally, the lack of water resistance limits their use during sports activities or outdoors in the rain. In summary, the Bose QuietComfort 45 offers a high-quality audio experience and unmatched listening comfort, but their price and certain technical limitations may deter some potential buyers.
