The noise-cancelling capability is excellent.
It features USB-C for charging instead of Micro USB.
The ear pads are no longer pleated.
Arguably the most comfortable pair of over-ear headphones.
The noise canceling could very well be the best out there right now.
You can't adjust the level of noise canceling like you can with other models.
No equalizer settings in the Bose music app.
Does not support the apt-X audio codec.
Solid battery life with up to 25 hours on a single charge and a 15-minute charge providing three hours of battery life.
Not an overall upgrade if you already own the Bose 700 headphones.
