Petition for new colors for the QC 2nd Gen
Just picked up and tried out a pair of the new Bose Quietcomfort 2nd Gen's, and they're great! Compared to the 2023 QC's, the ANC and Aware Mode are both notably better, I no longer get any static interference when using multipoint connection, and they look sleeker and more modern. The clamping force is ever so slightly more present, but not to a point where they're uncomfortable by any means. If anything, they just stay in place a little better.
BUT, I have one gripe... the color selection. I know it comes down to preference, but I really would've liked to see some more staple color options in the launch selection apart from Black and White Smoke (which is more of a grayish beige, for anyone wondering). And if Bose is talking suggestions, I'd REALLY love to see the new QC 2's in their Dusk Blue color.
I've been shocked by the lack of coverage on these new headphones. Don't get me wrong, some of these new colors are *interesting*, but my biased take is that I can't see any of them being particularly appealing to the general public. And with these not being considered Bose's flagship headphones (even though I prefer them to the Ultra 2's), they must not have a whole lot of draw to them in general.
Anyways, if you'd like to see the new QC 2's in new colors, drop a comment below and hopefully someone from Bose will see it:) My vote is still for Blue Dusk 💙
