Leaked Bose QuietComfort (2nd Gen) renders reveal refreshed design, color options

Bose launched the QuietComfort over-ear headphones in 2023, and three years later, the company appears to be gearing up to unveil their successor. Ahead of an expected launch, official-looking renders and features of the Bose QuietComfort (2nd Gen) have surfaced online.

According to the leaked promotional materials, the QuietComfort (2nd Gen) will feature a "refreshed look with a sleek, modern aesthetic" along with "more soft, synthetic leather details." The headphones sport redesigned oval-shaped earcups, while the outer cover appears flatter than on the 1st Gen.

The headband also looks wider and is wrapped in padded soft synthetic leather. Another notable change is the contrasting color used for the mesh lining inside the earcups. Each earcup houses three microphones to assist with active noise cancellation. The renders also suggest that Bose is sticking with physical buttons for playback and other controls.

In terms of portability, the earcups appear to rotate flat and sit inside a carrying case, which is also shown in the leaked renders.

The report notes that the Bose QuietComfort (2nd Gen) will be available in Black, DewDrop Mint, Eucalyptus Green, Hazelnut Taupe, Rosewood Mauve, and White Smoke colorways.
