Question 1

Will it be possible to get these without Alexa?

Accepted Answer

You can decide to not enable Alexa when you get the headset! This isn't something that comes enabled when you receive the headphones.

Question 2

Are these going to be better than the QC35?

Accepted Answer

I found these to sound better.  It may be because the Noise Reduction is slightly better.  I have the QC35's and the Sony wh-1000xm3's.  I find the Bose 700's to be superior to both even if you consider the sound quality of these to be equal due to the other features.  The multipoint bluetooth makes them more attractive than the Sony's.  The passthrough is simply amazing.  With the headphones on it sounds as if you're not wearing headphones.  I no longer use any other headphones.  If it's not raining I'll even take them outside because I can hear safely.  I just received the Echo Buds and love them.  They are my backup when it's raining (I live in Seattle).

Question 3

Can these connecto to a pc at call center? to be used with voip?

Accepted Answer

It will work, but probably not well. They have a problem that keeps them from working reliably on Zoom, Teams, or other video conferencing software when connected to Windows PCs or Macs. There is supposed to be a firmware update to fix this, but the first one that came out (1.4) caused worse problems, so they recalled it, and they have only promised a new version (1.5) but I haven't been able to actually find it anywhere as of Sept 13, 2020. Bose support is worse than useless. I'm giving up and returning them.

Question 4

Is it as easy to switch between devices as the QC 35?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to switch. I think people are trying to use these like the 35 headphones. Which is why the are getting frustrated. 
Unlike those, you are not forced to switch between devices. It will automatically remember the last 8 devices you paired with. And if the device you want to pair with is set up to connect with it, it will do so automatically. It even will stay connected with two devices at the same time. These are much “smarter” technology than the 35.
