These Bose Noise-Canceling Earbuds Are $50 Off

Yesterday I wrote about a $50 off deal on the Apple AirPods Pro 3, but if you’re not an iPhone or macOS user, they won’t be of much use to you. That’s why today I have a deal for you on the Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 Earbuds, a great pair of earbuds that compete directly with the AirPods Pro 3. They’re also marked down from $50 to just $250 in the Desert Gold color scheme, with lesser discounts for the Midnight Violet version.
Bose has always been known for its active noise cancellation, and these headphones improve on that formula with better noise reduction and a wider sound range. Although they have the same drivers as their predecessor, Bose has made some processing and tuning improvements to make them better. If you want to tweak the experience further, there’s a full EQ in the app, as well as more customization settings for touch controls and immersive spatial audio. The headphones actually use the welcome beep coming from the earphone port to adjust the sound profile to the shape of your ears, which is truly advanced technology for the category.
They also got some feature upgrades over the original QuietComfort Ultra earbuds, like proper wireless charging built into the case for easier recharges. They’ll run for six hours on a single charge, with up to 24 hours total including the charging case. This is with ANC enabled, which you’ll probably use often given how well the sound isolation and transmission modes are taken into account. Our reviewer Parker Hall specifically mentioned Aware mode, which is like a pass-through mode but with some smoothing for the loudest sounds in the real world.
Although the QuietComfort Ultra 2 headphones come in a variety of colors, I only spotted the Desert Gold at the lowest price of $250 on Amazon and Best Buy. The other discounted color, Midnight Violet, has a smaller discount that brings the price down to $269 at Amazon or $255 at Best Buy.
