I've been an advocate of Bose's best noise-cancelling headphones for many years now, so when the QuietComfort Ultra Headphones landed in my lap – effectively replacing my six-year-long use of the Bose 700 Headphones – I was excited to see how much the brand had advanced its formula for producing the best travel headphones money can buy.
It didn't take long for me to get hooked either: having flown a seemingly never-ending 18-hours with the Bose QC Ultra Headphones on my head throughout, including during sleep, it was quickly apparent that these lightweight, comfortable and compact headphones deliver great sound and active noise-cancelling (ANC) that I think is unrivalled at present.
