ANC works whenever you have battery and turn the power switch on. jack Wired or wireless will not have impact on it. If you ran out of battery and plug it in your device, you won't have anc.

This is a great deal. There are now two differences between the QC35's and the QC35II's though - the ANC / Assistant button, and Bose AR.

I upgraded my refurb QC35's to 3.0.3 and I didn't run into any ANC issues. I followed pretty specific instructions though, which included doing a factory reset, a hardware reset, and then plugging them into my computer and updating through the bose firmware update page rather than through the app. I repeated that process 3 times

I went as low as 1.0.6. Even when I switch in between High-Low-Off ANC, the level changes very little.

The only difference between the QC35I and QC35II is the addition of assistant support. A good feature IMO but I'll take the savings on this unit.
No improvement on sound?

Might give these a try as well since there's free returns on them. Likely would have grabbed these in the first place over the Hear On 2's I got. Comfort is king for me and these were the most comfortable headphones I've tried on before.

I've been looking at the QC35II (and the Sony XM3), looking for a deal but none to be had. I have an upcoming trip next week, so I bought these and paid the $25 for express shipping. Comfort is everything and I've had some quite uncomfortable ones in the past...so hopefully these work for me!

Doesn't matter. Bose is good with warranty claims, and treats out of warranty customers good as well.
So if i return it in 1 month, mine gonna show up in next refurb sale Grinning Face With Smiling Eyes

if you are on the fence about these buy them from bose.

if you buy from bestbuy / the source you cant return used headphones.

i bought a pair a few months ago and they gave me terrible headaches (apparently its a thing for some people and ANC headphones) I returned them a week later.

I always do (unit#)-(address) and never had issues in 8+ years of living in condos downtown Toronto. i.e. 420-69 Disney st. E.

Hmm are you getting rejected with the billing address then? Maybe you can update that.
I bought mine earlier with (unit #)-(address) fwiw Neutral Face

If that's the case then why is it allowing only the building number and going to payment page? Only problem is when I enter Unit number its giving an error

Just ordered them. With 30 day return policy and free return shipping, there's nothing to lose if you just want to try them out.

Like an earlier poster, my biggest issue with these being refurbished would be the battery.
