Our Verdict

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones Wireless

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones Wireless are better overall headphones than the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95. Both headphones have a lot of bass on tap, but the Bose also have a better ANC system that does a great job of tackling low-frequency sounds, like engine rumble. They're also more comfortable and have an immersive audio feature. That said, the B&O have a longer continuous battery life.
