but South the blue surprised us with the new QC 35 dubbed the QC 35 - pretty original but I love my original ones from last year they were in the top three active noise-cancelling headphones video that I made and if anything I still personally use mine over many of the other headphones here at the studio jumping right into this I personally paid for these at the retail price of 349 dollars as always I'll place my links in the video description below click on those links and they'll give you the most updated prices in real time you never know when these things might go on sale so without further ado sit back relax and enjoy the content i'm jimmy with jim's review room and i'm here to help you make that purchase decision welcome everyone to another review jumping into the physical features they look identical to the original QC 35 s for those who don't know here's a quick rundown of the physical build first up is my stress test and I know it's over the top here but hey I do to see if there's any weak spots so that way you don't have to now I haven't had any pair of headphones break on my channel thankfully but seriously though what I look for are any seams popping cracks or creeks anything that may be of a concern that we can find immediately in the end they're very durable and have amazing build quality here and no creeks confirmed another trait these things are super lightweight and coming in around two hundred and thirty five grams these are one of the lightest wireless active noise-cancelling headphones that I've tested the other pair of headphones that comes to mind are these Sennheiser PXE 550 s those were lightweight as well but every other pair that I recall in the channel have been heavier the original QC 35 s were practically identical in weight now a comfort and looks they're soft and supple leather up top here at the headband Alcantara fabric used on the headliner the matte black looks stealthy as hell here and while we're reiterating these are the lightest pair of headphones that most people are going to buy they do feel great well this is one of the few headphones that I can personally wear all day and not feel wearing fatigue at the crown of the head nor fatigue at the jawline from the clamping force the design of the ear cups down to the ear pads are very comfortable one of the best features of these over the ear headphones the inner lining is recessed and at an angle now where the upper part of my ears stick out and it kind of big here they don't touch the inside and provide this airiness giving room so my ears can breathe I never felt my ears overheat or experienced sweaty ears during my time testing as I signed up yes the ear pads are removable and replaceable moving on and taking a closer look on the right you have power on and off with bluetooth pairing once you slide it over looking on the rear of the right ear cup pause play skipping and going back and songs are in easy reach and easily identifiable on the forefront you have NFC or near field communication for easy pairing and folks don't take this for granted a simple tap with your NFC enabled phone pairs the two nearly instantly no need to scan or refresh the bluetooth menu now lastly on the bottom here most have the chance but like 99% of all headphone manufacturers out there today we're still on USB 2.0 and not USB type-c not just yet that is now since around the sportin bose is climbing up to 20 hours of use which is great with my test at 50% vibe from a full battery to dead I achieved 23 hours and 22 minutes to be exact now another feature that many overlook and Apple gets a lot of praise for this and others don't Bose does have some sort of rapid recharge if the headphones are dead recharge them for 15 minutes and you get two and half hours of playback moving to the left ear cup and this is the only new feature that Bose is offering there's a bunch of toggle between active noise-cancelling performance and Google assistant now previously before an update you could not turn off a and C and later it was exclusively through the app now with the press you can talk about turning off a and C all together now getting deeper into Google assistance you tap and hold speak naturally and Google assistance provides conversational responses it's a convenience to have it here it works fast it's smooth and not getting too deep into Google assistance since most of you guys I think are familiar with it but controlling your music through voice asking for a specific artist or genres to start playing and having the headphones obtain my text messages and notifications are great and a few examples of what you can do I found a few places within 1.5 miles the next few showings of Blade Runner 2049 are at 7 p.m. 7:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. I like blue red yellow and green Google's colors but I found a very similar experience with my other headphones earphones and other audio products even with my previous generation QC 35 the hold down their multi-function button and Google assistant it pops up on my phone speaking to my headset like normal and I get the same results as the QC 35 twos I would assume this would be beneficial for the few phones that don't have Google assistant just yet and are still using Google now as for Siri she doesn't work on this new button however the multi function button on the right ear cup can still bring her up so before touching base on active noise-cancelling performance and knocking out some of the minor details here I did test Bluetooth range and over time with most flagship phone today and Bluetooth 4.0 or here I've been achieving wireless ranges up to 60 to 80 linear feet with the bose qc25 twos I confirmed 58 layer of feet on both my google pixel XL and samsung s a Plus same exact results with the original or older QC 35 s no change now regarding phone calls here's a quick sample for your review pay attention this picks up background noises or not hey Adam can you hear me yeah hey I just want to touch base with you and see if you're free tonight Jenny's having taco night and I don't know are you available touching base on active noise-cancelling performance al abbreviated anc from here on out to set up proper expectations no pair of anc headphones completely sound sees your environment however some blocks out more than others also with most anc headphones some may feel a sensation of air and cabin pressure feeling when ANC is activated with the QC 35 to s I feel it more so than most of the competition out there it took half a day maybe the next day until I was acclimated and stopped noticing it every time second I tested these in the coffee shop as always do it's usually busy in there while cuter sitting with these on and wore them while here in the studio or the office the QC 35 twos do block out a lot of your surroundings more so than majority of the other ANSI headphones out there they give a quick demo here's a live clip I'm using professional microphones and this is possibly one of the best audio tests that you guys can find on youtube right now I implore you for you to put on earphones or headphones for the best audio experience please like and subscribe to help support my work I could make everything on that are you 100% that are you 100% battery 100% connected to Tyler's essay MSUM GSE jumping into audio quality just to get this out the way both the old and the new boast QC 35 s sounds exactly the same after several years of testing audio they boast QC 35 twos and I guess the 35s are still my favorite sounding pair of active noise-cancelling headphones I have tested Sennheiser's JBL Samsung Sony beats and the list goes on here and these provide such a clean level of bass it's not bass heavy by any means but there's just enough thump and punchy bass to make nearly every genre of music shine the mid-range and in my opinion this is the biggest highlight of the audio experience it's very clear very articulate and offers more spatial sound than the aforementioned brands the details of instruments to the details of vocalists its impeccable for the anc 300-350 dollar market touching base on high frequencies you typically hear snare drums cymbal crashes synthesizers up at this range here and they hold up well when I listen at higher volume it doesn't get raspier tinny and more importantly its resolution and clarity on the top-end remains intact more so than other headphones that I've tested now if you owned the original ones your call here but in my personal humble opinion there is absolutely no reason at all to take a hit or a loss on money by selling your old QC 35 in buying the new QC 35 twos if anything for me it was an excuse to buy the black models and replace my silver ones both colors look great when you guys know I like the dark look at my channel here know if you don't know any of these get them or at least try the active noise-cancelling performance it is so real come back to my channel then and let me know your thoughts in the comment section down below I also have the Sony WH 1000 X m2z that's the direct competitor to the QC 35 twos that's coming to the channel shortly so be on the lookout for that and also a head-to-head comparison so thanks for watching guys be sure to LIKE sub and share to support my work I'll catch you guys
