New plum-purple colorway of the Bose Ultra over-ear -- premium ANC performance, premium tactile build, and a refreshed hue that stands out from standard black.
The Bose Ultra Over-Ear replica arrives in a fresh plum-purple finish that adds a contemporary twist to the familiar silhouette. Build quality is immediately apparent on first handling -- the headband padding, ear cushion material, and hinge mechanism all replicate the tactile density of the original. Active noise cancellation performs at a level that meaningfully suppresses office noise, aircraft cabin hum, and street traffic, drawing a clear line between this unit and budget imitations. The 40 mm acoustic driver delivers the wide soundstage Bose is known for, with strong mid-range clarity and controlled low-end extension. Controls sit in the correct positions on the ear cup and respond with the same tactile click as the original. Folding hinge allows the headphones to collapse to a compact footprint for travel. The plum-purple colorway is available now and photographs exceptionally well against neutral backgrounds.
The Plum Purple has a semi-matte finish - it has some sheen that brings out the depth of the color without being reflective or prone to fingerprint smudges.
No, the ANC performance is identical across all colorways. The internal components are the same - only the external finish changes.
The color finish is applied through a durable coating process that resists chipping and UV fading. Normal daily use should not affect the color. Avoid abrasive surfaces to prevent scratching.
