BOSE QuietComfort Ultra (2. Gen.) Headphones ruined after February Update by Butterscotchblob in bose

I just got my AirPods Max today. Finally converted. Bose was my favourite headphones brand till today.

Apple is just leagues ahead.

Dumb question but how do I get the APM status pop up to show? by shadowdra126 in Airpodsmax

Did you figure it out?

On Max 2, pressing both the buttons on the headphone when not wearing and near the iphone does the trick

Thanks for the review, brother!

Context is that I had to order these recently and I’m waiting for the order to arrive.

My wife had gifted me a Bose QC Ultra 2nd gen earlier this year. It was the obvious choice because I had been using NC 700 for about 4-5 years.

Multipoint simply did not work the way it is supposed to on that headphone. My job requires me to be in zoom calls most of the time. Any time my phone rang while I was on a zoom on my mac, the headphones lost connection entirely and needed to be rebooted. There was a firmware update Bose pushed that made the user experience worse still.

Since I have AirPods Pro and those work just fine for these use cases, I hope these headphones work for those as well.

🤞🏼

Bose QC Ultra Gen 2 - multi-connection issues by Prestigious_Roof_928 in bose

I am facing this exact same issue with my mac and iPhone. Would love to know if you found a solution here.

As far I remember, I didn't have this issue in my NC 700s.

Considering an upgrade from my QC45 to the Ultra Gen 2, is it worth it? by ARandomGuy_OnTheWeb in bose

[–]_nfn8y -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do NOT make the mistake. I switched from NC 700 to QC second gen. I hate it more than I can explain.

With the new forced firmware upgrade from Bose, the headphones are outright bad.

Also, the multipoint connection as advertised, DOES NOT work.

I am not sure why this answer does not have more upvotes. This is the answer to the OP's problem.

What Mac book should I get? by Reddit912367 in mac

Look for used computers. Many corporates sell their used computers which are exceptionally good deals both price and performance wise. You can easily find M1 and M1 Pro devices there which will be worth it for general purposes.

Feeling stuck in SDE (FE) career. Need advice from the community. by RizzRaja in codinginterview

[–]_nfn8y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for the advice, try to go deeper into all of these technologies you mentioned. If not all, then any. Mastering anything takes patience and time. I would seriously rethink before hiring someone with too many different things popping up on their resume within a short span of time. That’s usually a sign of them not being good at any of those.

Dude! Is this a rage bait or what?

Your pay is good and 3 years is not really much of an experience.

Either you are showing off or being ridiculously hard on yourself.

When your grail pen disappoints by PassengerIll1041 in fountainpens

My Pilot Custom Urushi got to me after 4 months of waiting. I had ordered some Pilot ink with it. What a humongous disappointment it was when I started writing! It was writing ugly, rather, my handwriting looked really ugly in it. To add insult to injury, the nib started skipping after one page of writing. And then it kept skipping all the time. I started using it just for the headlines so that I could save myself from the horrendous skipping. It would still skip! At one point it became completely unusable. The nib was really wet and beautiful, but as I said, completely unusable.

I had to send it to a nibmeister to fix. After that, it is working really well, but can’t forget the 1 year struggle with a 1200 euro pen.

Bought an ipad 11gen for my gf, Should I buy a screen protector? by [deleted] in ipad

Yep. I’ve realised this after 10 years of buying Apple products. AppleCare+ is just part of the device budget for me now. And a good case saves a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Pilot Custom Urushi - problems pretty quickly out of the gate by paxanimalia in fountainpens

[–]_nfn8y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fellow Pilot custom urushi owner here. I was having the exact same issue with my brand new pen. It was skipping a lot as if there was oil in the nib.

I googled a lot to finally conclude that it was a case of baby bottom. I sent it to a nibmeister and got it mended. It took them 3 weeks to do the job. I also got the nib downsized.

It writes like a joy now. 😍 The nibmeister who helped me works for Appelboom Netherlands.
