Design

Bose headphones are renowned for their noise cancellation. The NCH 700s come with 10 different levels of noise cancelling, and even at its maximum, it's quite impressive. Six of the eight microphones are tucked inside the headband to separate voices from background noise. Two of the mics double as noise-rejection sensors to help to eliminate background hiss and echo during voice calls.

Unlike some of their competitors, Bose headphones tend to have a simple design with just a few buttons on the headband. The left cup has an adjustable noise-cancelling feature and the right one features toggles to power/Bluetooth or launch digital assistants.
