headphones designed for different needs. The Bose Quiet Comfort 45 headphones offer excellent noise isolation, high comfort, and are suited for air travel with an over-ear closed design; but they have poor gaming and TV scores, likely due to latency issues. On the other hand, the Mojawa HaptiFit Terra uses bone conduction technology with an open design that provides very good call quality and is optimized for exercise with its sweatproof and dustproof features. The Terra also includes health-focused sensors and local music storage, which the Bose lacks. Choose the Bose if comfort and noise cancellation are priorities and you primarily listen to music, podcasts, or need them for calls and air travel. Opt for the Mojawa if you're active, need situational awareness, or require health tracking features during workouts. Keep in mind, though, the Terra's sound quality won't match traditional headphones like the Bose for music listening. Give Feedback

"If you want a set of wireless over-ear headphones you can put on, deploy noise-cancelling on your commute or at your desk and largely extinguish the outside world for up to 24 hours, the Bose QC 45 has the edge over most of the competition at the price."
