✔Bose QuietComfort 25
This type of device allows you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the volume to overcome background noise. Ideal for plane rides and morning commutes.
2.lowest frequency
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The lowest frequency at which the device produces audio. The lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
3.highest frequency
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The highest frequency at which device produces audio. The higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
4.driver unit size
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device. Bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
5.impedance
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
Impedance is the device’s electrical resistance to the current being pushed through it. The lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.
6.sound pressure level
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
7.has a neodymium magnet
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
Devices with neodymium magnets are lighter and more powerful than those which use ferrite magnets. They also have more bass and clear high notes.
8.has passive noise reduction
✔Bose QuietComfort 25
The device sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal which reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out.
Power
The device's battery life (when in use) as given by the manufacturer. With a longer battery life you have to charge the device less often.
2.charge time
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
The time it takes to fully charge the battery.
3.Has USB Type-C

✖Bose QuietComfort 25
It supports a wireless charging standard such as Qi. To charge the device, you simply put it down on a compatible charging pad.
6.battery power
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value.
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
7.has a rechargeable battery
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
The battery can be recharged and used over again.
8.has a removable battery
✔Bose QuietComfort 25
The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.

3.has aptX Adaptive
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
aptx Adaptive is an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that is developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps), which means it can adjust the bit rate for different scenarios, such as listening to HD audio or reducing interference from other devices.
4.Has Bluetooth aptX
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
aptX is a codec used for transmitting audio wirelessly with Bluetooth. It is developed by Qualcomm, and supports 16-bit audio at a bit rate of 384kbps.
5.has LDAC
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
LDAC is a codec developed by Sony for Bluetooth audio. It is capable of a very high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high resolution audio. It can also automatically adjust to a lower bitrate of 330kbps or 660kbps to increase stability.
6.has aptX Low Latency
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
aptX Low Latency is a codec developed by Qualcomm. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 technology to provide low latency audio (around 40ms), which is useful when you want to avoid audio lag (e.g. when playing games).

Ambient sound mode uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard. It’s useful when you want to listen to music but also be aware of what’s happening around you, for example when you’re jogging but still want to be able to hear traffic.
3.has in/on-ear detection
✖Bose QuietComfort 25
Sensors can detect when they are removed from your ears so that the music is paused, saving battery life.
More microphones result in better sound quality and enable the device to filter out background noise.
