I discounted ANC, but 15 hours traveling with these headphones proved it's better than audio quality
ANC headphones: a sound investment
The Bose QuietComfort Headphones have been updated with a second-generation model. The new headphones, also called Bose QuietComfort Headphones (2nd Gen), bring several upgrades over the original pair and are priced lower. According to TechRadar, they will cost £299, which is less than the 2023 model's $349 / £349.95 / AU$549.95 price tag.
The new headphones feature two-way USB-C audio, better active noise cancellation (ANC), and Bose Immersive Audio. They will be available for purchase on August 13. ANC is a common feature in many wireless headphones, as noted by Android Police.
The second-generation Bose QuietComfort Headphones are an update to the original QuietComfort Headphones, which were themselves an update to the iconic Bose QuietComfort 35 II, initially released in 2017.
