As I <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/premier-1k-line\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">shared in a recent article<\/a>, getting <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/news\/get-airline-agents-fast\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">through to an airline agent quickly<\/a> is the best way to get rebooked and be on your way. When calling your airline, the last thing you want your agent to say is, \u201cI\u2019m sorry. I can\u2019t hear you. There\u2019s a lot of background noise. Please call back.\u201d That\u2019s why a clear microphone that doesn\u2019t pick up background conversations or announcements is especially important for travelers.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"bose-700-features\" class=\"jsx-133228390 anchor\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"jsx-133228390\">Bose 700 features<\/h2>\n<div class=\"jsx-2125870997 tpg-gallery\">\n<p>1<!-- --> of <!-- -->14<\/p>\n<p>KYLE OLSEN\/THE POINTS GUY<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Here are some of the features of the <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=108360X1565867&amp;sref=https%3A%2F%2Fthepointsguy.com%2Freviews%2Fbose-noise-canceling-headphones-700%2F&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Famzn.to%2F3Vj58Qw\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">Bose 700 headphones<\/a> that I\u2019ve grown to like.<\/p>\n<h3>Noise cancellation<\/h3>\n<p>When I let my tech-geek friend know I\u2019d be reviewing the Bose 700 headphones, he told me that some of the newer Sony headphones (like the <a href=\"https:\/\/go.skimresources.com\/?id=108360X1565867&amp;sref=https%3A%2F%2Fthepointsguy.com%2Freviews%2Fbose-noise-canceling-headphones-700%2F&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Famzn.to%2F3Via6gm\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">Sony WH-1000XM5<\/a>) have better noise cancellation. Though I have yet to try the Sony headphones, the Bose 700 headphones\u2019 noise cancellation impressed me.<\/p>\n<p>You can change noise cancellation from 1 (minimum) to 10 (maximum) through the Bose Music app. There\u2019s also a physical button on the side of the headphones, which can change the noise control, but more on that later.<\/p>\n<p>Going for a walk on a busy street with cars driving roughly 30 mph around me, I was left hearing quiet wooshes as cars passed with the headphones on 10. On my <a href=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.com\/airline\/american-airlines\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">American Airlines<\/a> flight, I played some calm, quiet Spanish guitar music in the air. While I could still hear some plane noises, the headphones blocked toilets flushing and neighboring passengers talking. As we began our descent, the first time I removed the headphones, I thought to myself, \u201cWow, this plane is loud,\u201d after being surprised by how much noise there was without the headphones.<\/p>\n<h3>The Bose Music app<\/h3>\n<div class=\"jsx-2125870997 tpg-gallery\">\n<p>1<!-- --> of <!-- -->10<\/p>\n<p>KYLE OLSEN\/THE POINTS GUY<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>After unboxing the headphones, the instructions told me to download the Bose Music app (available on iOS and Android). After downloading the app and permitting it to access Bluetooth, I could quickly connect my headphones to my phone directly in the app. One of my favorite features of the headphones was the ability to connect to both my phone and laptop simultaneously. That way, I didn\u2019t have to manually change the audio connection between the two.<\/p>\n<p>You can also sign up for your own Bose Music login, but luckily, having a Bose Music account isn\u2019t required to use the headphones.<\/p>\n<p>From the Bose Music app, you can adjust the noise cancellation and equalizer, see tips, customize shortcuts and access many more features.<\/p>\n<h3>Intuitive controls<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"jsx-4252866712 tpg-figure\">\n<div style=\"padding-top:0\" class=\"jsx-3367723627 full-width-auto-height-image\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;overflow:hidden;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;position:relative\"><span style=\"box-sizing:border-box;display:block;width:initial;height:initial;background:none;opacity:1;border:0;margin:0;padding:0;padding-top:66.6875%\"\/><img alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\"\/><noscript><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"responsive\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;bottom:0;right:0;box-sizing:border-box;padding:0;border:none;margin:auto;display:block;width:0;height:0;min-width:100%;max-width:100%;min-height:100%;max-height:100%\" sizes=\"100vw\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=640 640w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=750 750w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=828 828w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=1080 1080w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=1200 1200w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=1920 1920w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=2048 2048w, https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=3840 3840w\" src=\"https:\/\/thepointsguy.global.ssl.fastly.net\/us\/originals\/2022\/10\/20221010_BOSE-700-Headphones_KOlsen_7.jpg?width=3840\"\/><\/noscript><\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"jsx-4252866712 figcaption\">KYLE OLSEN\/THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Controlling the headphones is simple with the three physical buttons (power\/Bluetooth, voice assistant and noise control) and the touch-sensitive gesture pad.

They\u2019re some of the most stylish headphones on the market. You have the choice of either going with luxe silver or black. When folding the headphones back into their case, each ear cup rotates 90 degrees to fit in easily. At around 9 ounces, I never felt like they were too heavy, and the cushy headband made for hours of comfortable listening.<\/p>\n<h3>A long-lasting battery<\/h3>\n<p>Bose claims that the battery will last up to 20 hours. In our tests with mixed-use (phone calls, full noise cancellation and moving the headphones from laptop to iPhone and back), the battery lasted 12 hours and 35 minutes.
