Bose , the mark that inventednoise - cancelling headphone , is aim to advance the technology again with the launching of its unexampled true wireless simulation , the QuietComfort Earbuds II .
The QuietComfort Earbuds II , which will be initially available in a triple black finish with an alternative soapstone colour variant to follow , note the first appearance of a new Bose engineering science that intends to calibrate both wakeless and noise - cancellation to the unique shape of every individual ear .
CustomTune sound calibration is spark every sentence the earbuds are removed from their charge case and place in the wearer ’s ears . A proprietary feel is play , and a microphone inside the earbud measuring the ear channel ’s acoustic reply . The result is used to tailor both sound and noise - cancellation carrying into action in less than half a mo .
As far as sound is concerned , CustomTune optimise frequency reply to the distinctive properties of every ear . And for interference - cancellation , CustomTune targets those frequence that have previously proved most resistant to noise - offset applied science – and incessantly analyse the wearer ’s environment , adapting to changes to maintain optimum performance .
One internal and three external microphones per earbud identify and valuate external sound , which are receive by an equal and diametric signal in a fraction of a msec . It ’s an arrangement that is undivided to Bose .
The responsive nature of CustomTune even pass to the earbuds ’ transparentness mode . It ’s now dubbed Aware Mode with ActiveSense – which basically means it responds instantaneously to brassy and/or sudden external sounds by switching on noise - cancellation for as long as it might be required .
Bose has thin the size of the QuietComfort Earbuds II by about a third over themodel they replace , and at 6 GiB each they ’re lighter too . Wearer comfort is further facilitated by the Bose FitKit , which comprises three sizes of ear - tips and three sizes of stability bands – so there are a aggregate of nine options for each earbud , which ought to be plenty .
The QuietComfort Earbuds II useBluetooth 5.3for wireless connectivity , and are compatible with SBC and AACcodecs ( still no room foraptXor anything higher ) . They’reIPX4 - rated for wet - resistance , and hold six 60 minutes of battery biography – the charge case curb another three full charges , and a 20 minute of arc billing provide another twosome of minute of playback .
controller is available via capacitive touch - control on each earbud , and are compatible with any origin actor ’s interpreter supporter . In addition , the Bose Music app provides EQ adjustment , admittance to noise - cancellation modes and other customisation niceties .
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II are on sale from September 29th , and are priced at $ 299 / £ 280 . Pre - orders begin September 8th .
