Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2)

Bose’s QuietComfort Ultra earbuds have long been a benchmark for noise cancellation excellence. Now, the second generation amps up the game with an AI-driven noise cancellation system that smooths out sudden loud interruptions — think sirens or trains — making your listening experience even more serene.

Wireless charging finally arrives in the charging case, a feature many have eagerly awaited. Plus, the AI-enhanced noise cancellation not only improves your music but significantly boosts call clarity.

And here’s a cool update: the redesigned ear tips help prevent earwax buildup and make cleaning a breeze, making these earbuds not just smart, but also hygienic.

Release Date: June-July 2025

Under the hood, it packs 70 watts per channel of Class D power amplification — efficient, compact, and still delivering that rich musicality Cambridge Audio is famed for.

Power-hungry speakers? No problem. The MXW70 claims no issues powering more demanding setups.

Connectivity options include speaker terminals, balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA inputs, plus a handy switch to toggle between stereo and mono sound modes.

Bose SoundLink Plus: Portable Speaker Meets Rugged Durability

Bose’s new SoundLink Plus slots right between the Flex and Max models in the SoundLink family, promising a lot in terms of performance and durability.

It delivers “rich sound” combined with a robust, adventure-ready design rated IP67 for water and dust resistance. Inside, you’ll find a subwoofer, a tweeter, and four passive radiators, aiming to deliver best-in-class Bluetooth speaker sound.

Even projecting on non-white surfaces? The M2 Pro’s got it covered with image compensation features.
