Bose QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling headphones.
Sound Quality: 8.5 out of 10.
I have had these for a while now about 3 years and I have to say that they are a great mid-range (as I have been told mid-range by a friend who is really into his headphone) set of headphones. The bass and treble are very good, clear and good for all types of music. I have tried many different headphones over the last few years including the Beats Audio, but in my opinion these are and have been the best.
The noise cancelling is very good, on planes (which I travel on a lot) I can hardly hear any of the drone from the engines or people talking around me. This is the same for everyday life. When I wear them when travelling around cities I have to remind myself to be more observant around roads.
Comfort: 9 out of 10
As a glasses wearer it is hard to find over the ear headphones that don't push against the glasses frame. Not only does this start to hurt after a while, it also desegregates the sound quality. As these have been designed to sit on the ears and not around them, they are great for me and other glasses wearers.
Also they use memory foam which mold into your ear in a soft comfortable way. I often wear them on flights lasting longer than 10 hours, having little to no discomfort.
Not only take the foam ear things (whatever they are called) can be replaced when needs be, as I did earlier this year and it is very simple to do.
Cost: 7 out of 10
They will cost you about 299 pounds, from Bose's website (http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-and-personal-audio/headphones-and-headsets/acoustic-noise-cancelling-headphones/quietcomfort-3-headphones/ ) but like anything nowadays I am sure that you could find them cheaper with a little searching online.
Yes there are other headphones out there that are cheaper, but personally for the whole package these are the right ones for me.
Durability and Longevity: 9 out of 10
Had them for a long time and never had a problem, not once with them.
The battery last for a very long time, days in fact of constant use. The battery can be replaced, along with most of the parts.
A strong and sturdy product.
Bad Points:
Well there aren't too many bad points to say about these but:
1. I wish there was an adapter to allow them to become wireless. Bose do, do some that are wireless, but they are over the ear ones and well no good for me a as glasses wearer.
2. The carry case is a little large and I wish that the UK plug adapter would fit into the case more easily.
Overall Review: 8.5 out of 10
I would recommend them to anyone, which I have done.
Great sounds
