Bose has reduced the price of its second-generation QuietComfort Ultra headphones to $379, a $70 discount from the standard $449. The deal is available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart, making these over-ear headphones more accessible for travelers seeking premium noise cancellation.
The new QuietComfort Ultra model improves upon its predecessor with better noise cancellation and support for lossless audio via a USB-C cable. A newly added Cinema Mode enhances movie and TV show immersion while clarifying dialogue, and an improved transparency mode reduces sudden loud noises more effectively than before.
Battery life has been extended to up to 30 hours on a single charge, a notable upgrade for long-haul flights or extended commutes. The headphones retain the foldable design that makes them easy to pack in carry-on luggage, a feature appreciated by frequent travelers.
For commuters and air travelers, this price drop removes a key barrier to entry for high-end noise-canceling headphones. The combination of enhanced audio features and portability positions the QuietComfort Ultra as a strong competitor against Sony and Apple in the premium headphone market.
Some buyers may prefer waiting for potential deeper discounts during seasonal sales, though the current $70 off represents the lowest price yet for this model. The deal is available at all three listed retailers while supplies last.
