Attack of noise cancellation: Bose shows the QuietComfort Earbuds II
8.9.2022
Translation: machine translated
Smaller and with a new Active Noise Cancelling technology: Bose has introduced the new Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II. They are designed to set new standards in noise cancellation for true wireless earbuds.
Bose shows its courage: shortly before the big Apple bash, the audio manufacturer presented its new Earbuds. Like Apple's new Airpods Pro, the QuietComfort Earbuds II focus on improved noise cancelling with a new technology and come in a new design. In addition, the small Earbuds are Bluetooth 5.3 capable.
This is the new Active Noise Cancelling technology from Bose
"CustomTune" is the name of Bose's new sound calibration technology. The function is supposed to play a sound every time the earphones are put in the ears to measure the acoustic response of the ear canal with the built-in microphone - whether this works, the reviews will show. The measurement information obtained is to be used to adjust the Active Noise Cancelling performance as well as the sound to the user and thus improve it.
New design and equal battery
In addition to the technical innovations, Bose has also made changes to the design. The design of the Earbuds has become significantly narrower. According to Bose, they are a third smaller than their predecessor and still weigh six grams per earbud.
The new Earbuds have been designed with the same amount of battery as their predecessor.
The previous model was more bulky and looked like this: [[productlist:13759393]]
Bose has not changed the battery life, however. As with the previous model and the new AirPods Pro, it is six hours. With the case, there's an additional 18 hours of runtime.

Testing devices and gadgets is my thing. Some experiments lead to interesting insights, others to demolished phones. I’m hooked on series and can’t imagine life without Netflix. In summer, you’ll find me soaking up the sun by the lake or at a music festival.
