5 of the best Bose headphones and earbuds are up to $130 off ahead of the launch of the QuietComfort Headphones (2nd Gen) — which ones are worth buying?

Bose has recently slashed prices on a majority of its headphones and earbuds, in anticipation of the launch of the QuietComfort Headphones (2nd Gen). However, before making a decision on which deal to pursue, it is essential to weigh the options.

One of the most notable deals is on the original Bose QuietComfort Headphones, now priced at $229 (down from $359). While this is a considerable saving, it is still $50 more expensive than the older version of the QuietComfort Headphones, which was spotted as the low-price point during Prime Day in June. Therefore, the current price represents a step up from the previous record-low price but is not the best deal currently available.

Another deal to consider is the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, which are now priced at $249 (down from $299). This deal returns the earbuds to their lowest price of the year, and if you missed previous offers, this could be an excellent opportunity to purchase them at a lower cost.

The original Bose QuietComfort Headphones remain a top choice for those seeking quality noise-cancelling headphones at a mid-range price. They boast excellent noise cancellation, top-tier audio quality, and a lengthy 24-hour battery life, all available at a reasonable cost.

Bose's QuestComfort Ultra Headphones also continue to be available at the same price since Prime Day in June. With improved audio and noise-cancelling capabilities compared to other premium headphones, these offer a comfortable and lightweight design.

Lastly, Bose's affordable earbuds provide top-tier active noise cancellation without a hefty price tag. While prices have been observed lower than this offer, these earbuds still remain a strong candidate due to their comfort, sound quality, and active noise cancellation.
