FAQs

What is CustomTune technology?

CustomTune technology is a feature that analyzes your unique ear canal and adapts the audio performance specifically for you, delivering personalized sound that is optimized for clarity and depth.

How does Bose Immersive Audio work?

Bose Immersive Audio creates a more spacious and lifelike sound experience. It processes audio to give you the sensation that sound is coming from outside your head, creating a wider and more engaging soundstage.

What is the battery life of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds?

The earbuds provide up to 6 hours of listening time on a single charge. The included wireless charging case holds three additional charges, extending your total listening time to approximately 24 hours.

Can I connect the earbuds to multiple devices simultaneously?

Yes, the earbuds feature Bluetooth multipoint connectivity, allowing you to connect to two Bluetooth devices at once and seamlessly switch between them.

How do I ensure the best possible noise cancellation?

For optimal noise cancellation, it is crucial to achieve a proper and secure seal in your ear canal. Experiment with the different eartip and stability band sizes provided to find the best fit for your ears.

Do these earbuds have microphones for making calls?

Yes, the earbuds are equipped with noise-rejecting microphones and AI-based background noise suppression to ensure clear calls, even in noisy environments.

How do I get software updates for my earbuds?

Software updates are delivered through the Bose app. Connect your earbuds to the app and it will notify you of any available updates, which you can then install to ensure optimal performance and new features.

Troubleshooting

Earbuds won't connect or pair with my device.

Ensure the earbuds are in the charging case with the lid open to activate pairing mode. Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your device. If issues persist, try forgetting the device in your Bluetooth settings and re-pairing, or restart your device.

Active Noise Cancellation doesn't seem to be working effectively.

Ensure you have selected the correct eartips and stability bands to achieve a secure and airtight seal in your ear canal. A poor fit significantly impacts ANC performance. Also, check the Bose app to ensure ANC is enabled and set to your desired level.

Poor call quality or my voice isn't clear to others.

Verify that the earbuds are properly seated in your ears. Ensure there's no obstruction blocking the microphones. If in a very noisy environment, the AI-based background noise suppression should activate, but in some extreme cases, moving to a quieter location may help.

Battery life seems shorter than expected.

Confirm that the earbuds and charging case are fully charged. Using power-intensive features like Bose Immersive Audio continuously will consume more battery. Adjusting ANC levels or disabling Immersive Audio when not needed can extend playback time. Check the Bose app for detailed battery status.

Sound quality is inconsistent or unbalanced.

Perform the CustomTune calibration process again through the Bose app to ensure personalized audio is optimized for your ears. Experiment with different eartip sizes to confirm a proper seal, which is critical for consistent sound delivery.
