Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black are the all-black version of the noise cancelling true wireless earbuds Bose announced on 18 September 2024, sold alongside White Smoke and Chilled Lilac. Black is the colour that asks the least of you: it hides scuffs, skin oils and pocket dust, and it looks the same in a gym bag, on a plane and in a meeting. The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black suit commuters and travellers who care most about battery life, a case that charges without a cable and buds that stay in place on the move.

How the 31.5 Hours Adds Up
Bose rates the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black at up to 8.5 hours per charge, measured in Quiet mode at a 75 dB listening level. Louder listening shortens that. The charging case stores about 2.5 more full charges, which is where the total of up to 31.5 hours comes from. For a daily commute of an hour each way, that is several working days before the case itself needs power. On a long flight, one charge covers most of the trip and the case refills the buds while you eat or sleep.
A Case That Charges on a Pad
The case charges over USB-C or on any compatible wireless charging pad, so you can leave it on the same pad as your phone overnight and start each day full. Bose quotes about 1.5 hours for a full charge, and 20 minutes in the case adds up to three hours of listening, enough to rescue a morning when you forgot to charge. Neither a wireless pad nor a power adapter is included; the box has a short USB-A to USB-C cable. The case measures about 3.5 × 7.0 × 4.8 cm and weighs about 47 g, so it fits a trouser pocket.
Quiet, Aware and Off on the Move
Three listening modes cover a commute. Quiet blocks as much of the train, bus or cabin noise as the earbuds can, using six microphones in total, three per bud. Aware lets outside sound in so you hear a station announcement or traffic while walking. Off is plain playback. A customisable touch gesture switches between modes, and built-in voice commands handle volume, tracks and calls without reaching for the phone. Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint keeps the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black linked to a phone and a tablet or laptop at once.
Why Black, and Who It Suits
Black is the practical choice for anyone who carries earbuds everywhere. The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black do not show make-up, sunscreen or the grey film that builds up in pockets, and the dark case does not reveal small scratches from keys. That makes black the sensible pick for the gym, for travel and for anyone who would rather not wipe their earbuds every few days. It also matches any phone, and the buds sit discreetly in the ear in formal settings. If you want something that is easier to spot when dropped, the lighter colours are the alternative.
Fit and Gym Use
With the Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black, Bose includes three eartip sizes and three stability band sizes, nine combinations. The band presses lightly against the outer ear so the bud does not rotate loose when you run or lift. IPX4 covers sweat and splashes from any direction. In the Bose QCE app you can tune a five-band EQ, reassign taps and press-and-hold, check battery levels and install updates, and Low Latency Audio mode keeps audio in step with video.
Who This Is Not For
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds Black are not for swimming or showering: IPX4 covers sweat and splashes, not immersion. Bose lists only the A2DP, HFP and AVRCP profiles, so there is no aptX or LDAC. CustomTune and Immersive Audio from the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are not part of this model. No wireless pad or power adapter is included, and a black bud dropped on a dark floor is harder to find than a light one.
