What people are saying

Bose’s lightweight SoundLink Around-Ear Wireless Headphones II have earned an average 4.5 stars based on more than 13,700 Amazon customer ratings. Shoppers have raved about the comfortability of the over-ear headphones as well as their consistent, crystal clear sound.

“I had high hopes for these headphones and I was not disappointed!” one customer wrote. “They fit comfortably around my ears, and the band is easily adjustable to ensure a perfect fit whether I wear them with or without a beanie on...Very clear audio; bass is a touch heavier than I usually opt for (I would prefer the sub-bass to be increased a little instead) but the mids and treble are pretty. The snug ear cups block out most ambient noise, so I'm really glad I didn't bother spending the extra $200 for noise-cancelling version!”

Other shoppers have also echoed that although this particular model doesn’t have noise-cancelling capability like the Bose Noise Cancelling Wireless Bluetooth Headphones 700 ($479), the SoundLink does a fair job of blocking out external sound - for half the price.

“Awesome headphone, stylish and pure sound. Event hough they’re not a noise-cancelling model, the cushions fit well enough around the ears to work like a noise-cancelling one. Was really good outdoors, I use it for running and while at home. Ideal for wearing it a long time, does not cause any irritation to ears even after hours of use,” another added.

Verdict

Quality headphones can be pricey, which is why the chance to save $80 on a model from a trusted audio brand like Bose is too good of an opportunity to pass up.

Although the SoundLink model doesn’t offer noise-cancelling capabilities, based on reviews, there is enough external sound coverage to make your listening experience enjoyable.
