New leaked images of the upcoming Bose QuietComfort 2nd Gen headphones suggest the company is preparing its most significant design overhaul of the series in years. The renders, which have not been officially confirmed by Bose, depict a refreshed look, softer ear pads, and a wider color palette that includes Black, White Smoke, Blue Dusk, Rosewood Mauve, Dewdrop Mint, Eucalyptus Green, and Hazelnut Taupe.
According to the leak, the headphones are expected to retail at around $360 and launch in August 2026. While the core features — active noise cancellation, Bluetooth multipoint support, USB-C charging, and long battery life — are likely to remain, Bose appears to be prioritizing comfort. The ear pads look softer and the headband design has been tweaked for extended wear, which could benefit users who spend hours listening during work, travel, or gaming.
Bose has not issued any official statement, so all details should be treated as speculative. However, if the leak is accurate, the QuietComfort 2nd Gen could represent the biggest update to the lineup in recent memory — combining the signature comfort and noise cancellation with a cleaner, more modern aesthetic.
