    Is Bose QuietComfort 35 II good for gaming?
    alfredia
    about 2 years ago
    The Bose QuietComfort 35 II Gaming Headset is a great headset for both music and gaming. However, it's still expensive, and doesn't bring a lot of gaming features to consider keeping in view the steep price—plenty of far cheaper headsets sound just as good, work wirelessly while gaming, and offer more features.

    Can you workout with Bose QuietComfort 35 II?
    derrick
    about 2 years ago
    Since the Bose QuietComfort 35 II are not water resistant, it is not advised to use them while working out due to chance of damage from sweat. However, if you are only lightly working out, you can continue using your headphones.

    Yes, but like most Bluetooth headphones, the microphone on the Bose QuietComfort 35 II is not good at all for full-band recording. That being said, it handles voice well and will work just as well for phone calls and conference calls.

    Yes! To connect your QC35 headphones to the PS4, you will need to use the included cable. However, using the QC25 Android cable (additional accessory) would allow for both audio playback and mic transmission with your PS4 controller

    Try turning your Bluetooth device off and then back on to start a new search for nearby Bluetooth headphones and speakers. If your product still doesn't appear, go to the Bluetooth settings of your device, look for an option to search or scan for available products, and select your product when it's found.
