Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds falls to $249

Pick this up and save $50.

Bose's flagship earbuds almost never wander far from their $299 list price, so seeing them land at $249 is worth a second look. Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds drops to $249 - save $50. That 17% cut puts them well under the $278.56 they have averaged over the past 30 days. The Desert Gold colorway adds a twist here. This is a limited-edition finish, and it carries the same hardware as the rest of the second-generation Ultra lineup.

Same cancellation, same spatial audio, just a shell you will not see on every commuter's tray table.

Get This Deal

At $249, the current price is down from its list price of $299, and the price history backs up the value. The 90-day average sits at $270.92 and the 180-day average at $273.13, so today's number undercuts both by more than $20. The all-time low is $216, which means this is not the cheapest these have ever been, but it is the kind of gap Bose rarely opens up on its marquee earbuds.

What You're Getting

Who This Is For

This is for commuters, frequent flyers, and anyone who takes calls in loud places and needs their voice to come through clean. The ActiveSense and SpeechClarity upgrades make it a real step over older QuietComfort sets.

If you already own the previous generation and do not care about spatial audio, you can skip this round.

The Caveat

Battery tops out around six hours per charge, which trails several rivals in this price band. Travelers who need all-day playback should plan on topping up from the charging case between flights.

Final Verdict

For $50 less than list, the CustomTune tuning and best-in-class cancellation earn their keep for anyone logging serious time on planes or in open offices. If you have been circling the Ultra lineup, this is the price to move on.
