I'm sure Bose is well aware it's premium price propositions are brand driven, like Apple. Without brand advocates though, there pricing strategy starts to fall apart. What they seem to be doing with these updates is creating brand adversaries, which is a very dangerous approach for future business performance. ... View more

I plan to return my headphones unless we get some comment from Bose. I was wearing them just for the ANC to drown out the office noise, without music. The second the update finished, the ANC performance diminished significantly. I want to like these headphones, but there's only so much I'm prepared to accept. I've just about got used to the blips in the Bluetooth, but this is really trying my patience now. ... View more

For me, it was instantly noticable after the upgrade. I wear the headphones all day every day, so am well accustomed to how they previously performed.

The difference is pretty extreme, so if it does happen to you, you will definitely notice. Its not a marginal change in the effect. ... View more

Just updated to 2.5.1. Noise cancellation very poor on high setting, and there is a noticeable constant hiss noise that wasn't there before. If you haven't updated, don't. Learn from all the poor fools who have. Well done Bose. ... View more
