Design is sleek and comfy, noise-canceling is impressive. Controls are sensitive so that trying to remove or adjust phones usually results in an accidental press of one thing or another. Phones hissed and popped when I was wearing them to use weed-whacker outside; not sure if this was electrical interference or that noise-cancel system got overwhelmed. Call quality is good when paired with my iPhone 7. Sound with music is clear and balanced, to my ear. Required ‘Bose Music’ app fails to recognize headphones most of the time; this doesn’t affect normal use, but I’m unable to access the couple extra minor features in the app. I enjoy using them around the house. Would not recommend for heavy outside use or for exercise, so I still use my cheaper and lighter Sony bluetooth earbuds for those purposes. For the relative cost I would’ve expected something more durable-feeling with better software support and better control placement (or the ability to customize what its controls do). Look for them on discount unless comfort and call-quality are worth the price tag to you.Read full review

So far, I'm very happy with these headphones. The noise cancelling is top notch, I was kind of shocked when I realized how strong it is and how well it works. And I really like that you can adjust the strength...even though it's only really two options (besides 'off'), it's nice to have the choice. The sound quality/signature is what I expected. I tend to like the Bose sound signature better than other major noise-cancelling brands because the base is easily heard and nicely balanced in the mix, not over-emphasized. Overall, they have a smooth, appealing sound quality, with a surprising amount of space in the music for non audiophile headphones. They're also ridiculously light and very comfortable. A great pair of practical headphones, especially at the refurbished price.

I was concerned when I placed my order for a refurbished Bose 700. However, I've been pleasantly surprised. The headphones arrived in excellent condition with no indication they were refurbished. They have excellent sound, are comfortable, and meet my needs completely. I especially like the variable noise reduction feature. As I walk along roads, I did not want total noise reduction, but did want some. The Bose variable feature allows me to vary the amount of noise reduction according to conditions. I also like the fact that they are moisture resistant as I frequently walk in the rain. All in all, these are excellent headphones that I recommend fully.

Great mic, great sound. I bought it primarily for the mic because I had a pair of QC-15 with excellent noise cancelling already. Clients complained that they could hear my coworkers better than me through the mic setup that I had, so I researched which headphones had the best microphones. I'm not disappointed; my coworkers are still loud, but clients say that they can hear me just fine. The noise canceling is still good and I love the features such as being able to pause and turn off noise canceling with one touch when someone comes over to ask a question.

I really enjoy the sound quality and the noise deadening. I love the new control scheme where you just swipe and tap the surface of the ear cups rather than having to fumble for little buttons. Too bad there was not a simple instruction card to show these features to me The main con I have is that when they arrive all they have for instructions is a silly little card that tells you to download the app and push the power/bluetooth button. What if I did not want the app? I paid good money for these headphones, but they were un-usuable until I downloaded the app, then I found out that the app was unusable until I signed up for an account. I find that whole mentality objectionable. A shameless gathering of personal information to sell to further their profits and marketing. I love the headphones, am not a fan of BOSE at this momentRead full review
