The original Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds were a hit, and the company is improving on that initial success by adding wireless charging, improved ANC, and more at a $299 price point. An all-new portable speaker, the SoundLink Plus Portable, is coming alongside a second-generation SoundLink Micro speaker as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, AI is at the heart of the QuietComfort Ultra earbuds upgrades. There are new AI algorithms being used to identify and cancel out bursts of noise when active noise-canceling is enabled. This builds upon Bose&#8217;s existing ActiveSense ANC mode, and coincides with better call quality and voice recognition, according to the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The earbuds include a tweaked design and a bright colorway, Deep Plum, that joins Black and White Smoke. A clever trick Bose is introducing with the second-gen QuietComfort Ultra earbuds is the earwax guard, which is built into the earbuds to prevent earwax buildup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second-generation QuietComfort Ultra earbuds now feature wireless charging and will last for a total of six hours with ANC enabled. This solves a strange quirk with&nbsp;the first-generation model, which needed a separate sleeve to charge wirelessly. Now, it&#8217;s all built into the charging case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&gt;&gt;&gt;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.batterymap.co.nz\/detail-Bose-1746762-762936HV-1\">762936HV-1 Battery for Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Charging Case<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/QxqEgBdf8v4aupLJ6w7jJF.jpg\" alt=\"The Bose SoundLink Plus in blue against a gradient blue background.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>(Image credit: Bose)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the upcoming second-gen QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are two new wireless speakers. TheSoundLink Plus Portableis a midsize portable speaker with IP67 waterproofing and 20-hour battery life, priced at $269. It&#8217;s sure to be a hip option with bright and vibrant colorways including Citrus Yellow. Pre-orders are available starting now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s also a new model of the Bose SoundLink Micro speaker, which is a more compact offering. It has USB-C charging, a 12-hour battery life, and will launch in the coming months for $129 in blue or black colorways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&gt;&gt;&gt;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.batterymap.co.nz\/detail-Bose-1746273-M1454S2\">M1454S2 Battery for Bose QuietComfort II Noise Cancelling Headphones<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The surprise audio refresh from Bose means that some ofour favorite wireless audio productsare getting better just in time for summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plus, true wireless charging is finally here.
