Grab the Bose QuietComfort Ultras for $150 off while they're still in stock
SAVE $150: As of Jan. 14, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra noise-cancelling headphones are down to $279 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Bose. That's 35% off their list price of $429 and just shy of their best price ever. Inventory is running low, so secure a pair while you can.
We're living in an era of iterative upgrades and the newest version of Bose's flagship headphones are proof. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd gen) headphones look largely the same as their predecessors, but offer improved on-head detection, better battery life, and slightly better noise cancellation. They also cost $449 ($20 more than the first generation), though you can find them on sale as of Jan. 14 for $399.
The 2nd generation headphones are obviously in a league of their own, but if your budget tops out at $300, we still heartily recommend the original QuietComfort Ultras. Especially because they're on sale for just $279 at Amazon, Best Buy, and Bose. That's $150 or 35% off their list price of $429 and just shy of their best price ever.
Since these headphones have been replaced by the 2nd generation, they won't be on shelves too much longer. Inventory is running low across retailers. Amazon has the largest supply, but only the black and deep plum options are down to $279. Meanwhile, Best Buy only has the lunar blue color in stock and Bose only has the deep plum remaining. So, if you want to secure a pair of the OG Bose QuietComfort Ultra noise-cancelling headphones for $150 less than their retail value, add them to your cart ASAP.
Two of Mashable's shopping reporters tested the QuietComfort Ultras and noted that they can easily be worn all day without earaches, even while wearing accessories. The all-day comfort even pairs with all-day battery life; with noise cancellation turned on, the QuietComfort Ultras headphones will last from 18 to 24 hours per charge. These headphones also deliver pretty good noise cancellation, excellent sound quality, and convenient foldable earcups. "They're still some of the most comfortable and best-sounding headphones we've ever tested," Mashable's Sam Mangino writes.
