Best Buy has kicked off its Black Friday sales by slashing the price of Bose's popular QuietComfort headphones to $199 - a whopping 45% discount. The discounted price is also remarkably close to their Prime Day price from last month, highlighting just how good this deal is.
For those unfamiliar with these headphones, they are renowned for their exceptional comfort and cutting-edge active noise cancellation (ANC) technology. Bose fans can now choose between two ANC modes: "Quiet" mode, which provides full ANC protection, or "Aware" mode, which allows you to hear your surroundings while still enjoying some level of noise cancellation.
The new price point also highlights a handy wind-blocking feature that's sure to please outdoor enthusiasts and commuters alike. While the audio performance may not quite match the Ultra variant, it remains impressively good value for its price tag - especially when considering how few headphones in this bracket offer such advanced features at this price point.
However, some might find the lack of an "off" option for ANC a minor drawback. For those who like to turn off ANC altogether (such as frequent travelers seeking extended battery life), it's worth noting that this feature is absent from these headphones.
Despite this quibble, Best Buy's new pricing makes these excellent QuietComfort headphones an unbeatable Black Friday pick - especially when compared to the competition. Other notable headphone deals on offer include the Bose Ultra open-ear buds and Beats Studio Pro, both of which are available for significant discounts.
