"Wear detection pauses audio content when the headphones detect that you've removed them from your head, and resumes content when you put them back on. Apple's AirPods Max and Bose's QC Ultra 2 perform this feature best by pausing content when you remove the headphones and disconnecting them from your phone's Bluetooth. This allows you to switch audio from the headphones to your phone without pressing a button."
"However, Bose's QC Ultra 2 enter a low-power state faster than Apple's AirPods Max, and you don't need to put them in a case to achieve it. Simply lay the QC Ultra 2 flat -- earcups face-up or face-down -- and they'll begin conserving battery. Conversely, the AirPods Max have Find My compatibility, which requires the headphones to remain on to find their real-time location."
Bose's QuietComfort Ultra 2 improves battery capacity to 30 hours while emphasizing efficiency and a novel low-power mode. Wear detection pauses audio and disconnects Bluetooth, enabling seamless audio switching to a phone. The QC Ultra 2 enter low-power faster than Apple's AirPods Max and can be placed flat—earcups face-up or down—to begin conserving battery without using a case. AirPods Max retain Find My functionality that requires staying on to locate them in real time. Bose borrows AirPods Max power-management concepts but implements a more efficient, intuitive auto-standby for extended real-world battery life.
