New Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 - My Initial Thoughts

2019-05-29
the successors to the bose qc25 series - are finally here instead of being called the bose QC 45 is like everybody expected them to be called they're actually called the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 now we can argue about how great or bad that name is but there's a whole bunch of other stuff to talk about here now boses new headphones have been redesigned from the inside out namely they look nothing like the current bose qc25 now i'm going to reserve a final judgement until I actually see the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 you know that name just rolls off the tongue I'm gonna reserve judgment until I actually see them in person because who knows maybe they look a lot better in person than they do in pictures let's say for example I'm a car guy when I first saw the McLaren Simon 20s on the computer I thought my god that's an ugly looking car but then when I saw it in person I thought my god this car is beautiful so maybe the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 might have the same effect so again I'm going to reserve final judgement when it comes to the design of boses new headphones but from an objective standpoint it looks like they still have those super spacious ear cups that have been super popular with people on the bose qc25 but again objectively it looks like this new design isn't going to allow you to collapse your headphones down like you can with the Bose qc3 5s or there's Sony 1000 X and 3 you're only gonna be able to leave them lay them down flat now this isn't a huge deal but it's also going to mean that the carrying case that comes included with the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 is going to have a lot more surface area than the carrying cases that come included with the bose qc25 or there's sony 1000 XM threes now the other thing that I want to talk about here is that the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 again it's a great name these headphones are going to be going for four hundred dollars and they're going to be released out in June now bose going up in prices does have me a little concerned because they're probably going to be given away market share to their competitors namely the Sony 1000x and threes now when Sony first released their Sony 1000x is the original ones they were going for $400 whereas the Bose QC 3/5 is the original ones were going for $350 but then when Sony released or refresh 1000 X and twos which is what I have here they chopped the price down to 350 and when they released them threes they kept the price at 350 so again I am a little concerned that Bose might be giving away a little bit of market share when it comes to their headphones but maybe this will might mean that their build quality is going to get even better which honestly boses headphones the most QC 35 s have great build quality all around but again like I said I am going to be reserving final judgement when it comes to the design of the bose noise-canceling headphones at 700 until I actually see them in person but comment down below I'm sure you guys are gonna let me know what you guys think about the new looks of these new headphones alright but with simple stuff out of the way like design and price let's get into tech specs now thankfully these new headphones have been upgraded to USBC which i think is long overdue because i personally think the bose qc25 series 2 should have had USBC but unfortunately it looks like these new headphones are still rocking a 20 hour battery life now since the headphone market is currently heating up a lot of other manufacturers are starting to differentiate each other through their battery life the 1000x and 3's have a 30 hour battery life and the new job relate 85 h's have a 36 hour battery life and even sony's new wh XP 900 n which go for $250 have a 30 hour battery life so personally I think that's seeing a 20 hour battery life on the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 is a little weak personally I would have liked the seen boses new flagship headphones have a battery life in the 30 hour range or at the very least have a 25 hour battery life but with battery life out of the way one of the main things Bose is really trying to drive home is that they've improved they are ANC technology now like I've said in a few videos the ANC technology on the bose qc25 is pretty dated compared to a lot of other headphones out there namely there's a lot of cabin pressure on these headphones whenever I wear these headphones I can't wear them for more than 10 minutes before they give me a headache now I know that might not be the case for everybody but it is for me so definitely one of the first things we got to check out when we get boses new headphones is to see if they fix the cabin pressure issue but unlike the active noise cancellation on the bose qc25 where you can only choose from high-low or off the anc on boses new headphones have 11 steps to choose from so you're gonna be able to have more customization options over your ANC on the new bose noise-canceling headphones 700 i'm getting better just like on the anc on the 1,000 XM threes and just like the 1000 X and threes both new headphones now have a conversation feature so this is going to be very similar to quick attention on the 1000 XM threes where if you flick or press or do something on the headphones they're gonna pause your music and pump in all the ambient sound around you so you can have a short conversation with someone like let's say if you're at a cashier if you're gonna get a new change or if you're making an order it's gonna be great for that but again unfortunately like the 1000 X m3s have a bose noise-canceling headphones 700 again I'm getting better they now have a touchpad now personally I don't mind that the new Bose headphones happy touchpad but I do think it would have been in boses best interests to keep their physical control buttons like the on the bose qc25 because some people just don't want to deal with having a touchpad on their headphones and for some very casual users when it comes to choosing between the Bose qc3 5s and the Sony 1000 X and 3's I wouldn't be surprised some people went with the Bose just because they had physical control buttons unlike the surface headphones which have a touchpad but continuing down the line of features the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 still have both google assistant and also support just like on the bose QC three 5s and they also have Bose AR now if you don't know what Bose AR I did do a quick little video on that feature which you can click or tap right over here to check that out now in short both AR is still very much in its infancy so don't go picking up both a new headphones thinking that Bose AR is this new wonderful feature that you just gotta have it's still very much in its infancy but the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 aren't the only new product Bose announced today they also announced their new bose earbuds of 500 and the bose noise-canceling 700 year but what are they called what are you hold on the bose earbuds 500 and the bose noise-canceling earbuds 700 these names are amazing so if a bose earbuds of 500 or do out later this year in late 2019 and if the bose noise-canceling earbuds 700 or do out in 2020 so again I don't I don't know what's up with the Bose is a new naming scheme but with size telling us that they're coming they have an unannounced and official price but if I were to bet I'm willing to bet that the Bose are noise canceling earbuds 700 will be going for you know what $350 and the Bose earbuds 500 are gonna be going for $250 but now that the bose noise-canceling headphones 700 are official let's start a new rumor now just looking at the new naming scheme with the bose noise-canceling earbud 700 and the bose earbuds 500 i'm starting to wonder if there's going to be a cheaper on version called avi bose noise-canceling headphones 500 or maybe they won't have noise cancellation and they'll just be called the Bose headphones 500 the statement scheme is so simple but in all seriousness I do think it's pretty important for both to have a cheaper entry-level model because right now if they're bose noise-canceling headphones 700 are gonna be going for $700 so I think they're going to need something to be slotted around the 200 or 250 dollar range so I think having a bose noise-canceling headphones 500 and on-ear version would be pretty smart on boses part and besides right now we have the bose qc25 which are $350 and the Bose Soundlink 25 I think that's what they're called they haven't been upgraded in a year so those are definitely due to be replaced but like I mentioned earlier the Bose earbuds 500 or do out in late 2009 teen and the bose noise-canceling earbud 700 or do out in 2020 but right now all eyes are on the bows of noise cancelling headphones 700 which are gonna be out on June 20th and they're currently available for pre-order and they're gonna be going for the hefty hefty price of $400 so comment down below our BOCES new headphones exactly what you wanted are they different from your expected and what would you have liked
