Same summary

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2nd generation are designed for users who value superior comfort during long-term use, advanced surround sound and effective active noise reduction. The combination of wired and wireless connectivity with Bluetooth 5.4 support makes these headphones very flexible for mobile use, work, travel or relaxed listening at home. The headphones are particularly suitable for those who want quality sound, but are less optimal for intense sports activities, where grip stability and sweat resistance are crucial. They boast a comprehensive balance between comfort, functionality and sound quality, but due to the more robust over-ear design, they are not the best suited for very active athletes or users who value maximum portability.
