A full charge typically takes about 2.5 hours. A quick 15-minute charge can provide up to 2.5 hours of playback.

What is the range of the Bluetooth connection?

The typical Bluetooth wireless range is up to 30 feet (9 meters) from the source device, though environmental factors can affect this.

Can I customize the sound settings?

Yes, you can customize the sound (EQ) to your preference using the Bose Music app on your smartphone or tablet.

Are these headphones suitable for making calls?

Yes, these headphones are equipped with microphones for clear call quality, even in noisy environments, thanks to their noise-cancelling technology.

Troubleshooting

Headphones won't pair via Bluetooth.

Ensure the headphones are in pairing mode (Bluetooth indicator blinking blue). Turn off and on your device's Bluetooth, then try reconnecting. Clear previous Bose QuietComfort pairings from your device's Bluetooth list and try again. Make sure headphones are charged.

Noise cancellation isn't effective.

Verify that Quiet Mode is selected, either via the physical button on the headphones or through the Bose Music app. Ensure the ear cushions have a good seal around your ears; adjust the headband for a snug fit. Check for any obstructions or damage to the microphone ports on the earcups.

Sound quality is poor or distorted.

Check your device's audio settings and EQ in the Bose Music app. Ensure the headphones are fully charged. Move closer to your paired device to eliminate potential Bluetooth interference. Try playing audio from a different source or device.

Headphones won't turn on or charge.

Ensure the USB-C charging cable is securely connected to both the headphones and a working power source. Try using a different USB-C cable and power adapter. Allow the headphones to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to turn them on. If completely drained, it might take a few minutes for the charging indicator to appear.

Spotify Tap is not working.

Ensure the Spotify app is installed and logged in on your connected device. Verify that Spotify Tap is enabled in the Bose Music app settings. You may need to restart both your phone and the headphones, then try pressing and holding the 'Action' button again.
