Bose QuietComfort Ultra hit new low price, $70 off

If travel is on your agenda this year, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are an easy recommendation , and right now, they’re more affordable than ever. The second-generation over-ear headphones have dropped to a new low price of $379, saving you $70 off the regular cost. That deal is currently available at Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart.

These headphones are built for life on the move. They keep the foldable design of the original QuietComfort Ultra, so packing them into a carry-on bag is simple. But Bose has made several meaningful upgrades this time around. The noise cancellation is even stronger, and you can now enjoy lossless audio by connecting via a USB-C cable, which unlocks higher-quality sound from compatible devices.

A new Cinema Mode is also on board, designed to make movies and TV shows feel more immersive while keeping dialogue crisp and clear. The transparency mode has been improved too, doing a better job of reducing sudden loud noises than the previous generation. As for battery life, you’ll get up to 30 hours on a single charge , a solid six-hour improvement over the first model.

Bose added several thoughtful touches as well. The headphones automatically enter a low-power standby mode when stored in the included case or laid flat. They also power on and reconnect to a paired device the moment you put them on. The soft ear cups and lightweight frame remain, making long listening sessions comfortable. And multipoint Bluetooth pairing is still supported, so you can stay connected to two devices at once , perfect for switching between a laptop and phone without missing a beat.
