Overall ratingVery good84/100
Very good80/100
- Light and comfortable
- Effective noise suppression
- Solid battery life
- No ANC setting
- Missing intelligent functions
- A lot of plastic
Although the QuietComfort 45 are good in many ways, especially in terms of comfort and noise cancellation, they lack many of the features we would expect from flagship headphones.
Very good95/100
Greater wearing comfort, longer battery life, better sound, more effective ANC. The QuietComfort 45 are Bose's best headphones yet.
- Excellent ANC
- very light
- excellent operation
- A little quiet on the mobile
- moderate battery life
Bose's QC 45 offers strong noise cancellation in combination with a good and fresh sound. Telephone calls are less enthusiastic: Although the muffling of noise works well, spoken words come across as slightly tinny and sharp.

Good70/100
If you are looking for headphones that you can adjust to your own preferences, the QC 45 are the wrong choice. Bose does not provide an equaliser or fine-tuning for ANC in the app. On the other hand, if you just want to put on the headphones and don't want to worry about anything else, you're doing everything right with the Bose headphones...
