When it comes to eliminating ambient noise, Bose wireless noise cancelling headphones do it best. As the inventors of noise cancellation technology, Bose spent decades of research and development creating noise cancelling headphones. These headphones eliminate unwanted background sounds, like street noise, without diminishing audio quality. We also ensure they are comfortable to wear for hours.
Active noise cancellation (ANC) technology uses tiny microphones to measure surrounding sounds and send reversed audio that cancels background noise, making ANC headphones perfect for phone calls, airplanes, daily work commutes, and more.
Our noise cancelling headphones can also be set to transparency mode, or Aware Mode, so certain noises feed through, allowing you to hear what’s going on around you without compromising sound quality.
Choose between our over-ear noise cancelling headphones or wireless earbuds with the same noise cancelling technology. If you need more information on noise cancelling headphones, check out this guide: How does noise cancelling work and learn how our wireless noise cancelling headphones eliminate ambient noise.
*Testing conducted by Bose in April 2025 using production-representative Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones and a variety of music tracks using A2DP Bluetooth audio streaming at RSSI signal strength of 75dBm. Volume set to playback loudness of 75dB, 3-band EQ set, to zero in Quiet Mode (full noise cancellation). With Immersive Audio off, playback time was up to 24 hours before battery depletion. With Immersive Audio on, playback time was up to 18 hours before battery depletion. Battery life varies based on settings and usage.
