I have an older model Bose headphones set, probably 12-14 years old, that I've used and loved. However, I got tired of the cord always catching on things, and after trying a bunch of in-ear headphones, I decided it was time to get a bluetooth enabled over-ear set. Having had such a great experience with the first Bose I owned, and since it seemed they haven't lost their touch, I went with this one over the Sony.
The Pros: The sound is excellent, just what I was expecting. I can hear things while watching TV that I never could before without having the volume WAY up. This one has the music/sound controls on the right ear that my previous model didn't have, which is a huge plus. The battery life is amazing - I used this for my work phone calls as well as listening to music or watching TV for an entire week, only needing to recharge once. I compared that to my Airpods, and laughed. I can't even make it through a 2 hour work call (pretty standard length) without the battery dying on those.
The Cons: This is noticeably heavier than my old set. That's to be expected - my old one used AAA batteries, this has the battery built in, plus bluetooth, plus microphone, plus buttons... there's a lot more going on. But I did notice that after a few hours of continuous wear, the top of my head starts to hurt just a little where the band rests. I can expand the band a bit and let the cups rest a bit more on my ears, and that helps, but I do have to switch back and forth between the two positions.
I'm still fiddling with the app, and exploring the Alexa functionality. The voice prompts aren't great quality - very stilted and choppy, not natural like Alexa, more like pre-Siri voice prompts. It's a little surprising, given the price point on this, how long the technology has been evolving, and how few pre-programmed phrases it would need. Then again, I don't use voice commands too terribly often, so it's not a huge part of my interaction with it.
I got the Triple Midnight color. It's a very dark blue, so at first glance it looks black. Once the light really shines on it, it's a very nice color. Subtle, but beautiful.
Overall, I'm very pleased and impressed with these.

Headphones good! Container bad!
The product itself sounds amazing. Easy to use just like the rest of Bose's product. My only concern is that the container it came in has a busted zipper already. I'm not sure who I should contact about this.

FEATURES
They can be connected to 2 devices at once and it's easy to switch between instantly. I switch between my Pixel 5, TV, ipad and my computer all the time because it remembers circa 7-8 devices. It has Google Assistant built in and that button can be changed to control other things. I use it to toggle between levels of ANC.
The app allows you to change the settings easily.
COMPARISON
I was going to buy the Bose 700 but I didn't like how they felt. They had a little more pressure both on top of your head and on the sides compared to this one. I am also not a fan of the touch controls on the 700, especially the volume, and that you can't fold them. The travel case is also bigger.
I also tried on the Sony XM4 and I didn't like how shallow their earcups were compared to these ones. They were touching my ears from the start. Not a good sign for long use. But they sounded great.
COLOR
I've added pictures to show how the color is a lot different than the regular black model. In the promotion pictures I didn't notice a huge difference. And it's somewhat gradual when you hold them and the light source decides what color it is. So it goes from black with a shimmer to blue. I personally really like it.
MICRO-USB
The only downside to it being older is the Micro-usb port. But I've started to use magnetic charging cables on my bigger devices, game controllers etc that I don't charge that often, so this older port isn't an issue anymore.
SUMMARY
I recommend them to people who just want the gold standard of ANC headphones and comfort when traveling or wearing headphones all day and doesn't really care about the latest features. These just work great in all situations, especially when making phone calls.
