Bose's QuietComfort Ultra 2 earbuds are the best noise-canceling earbuds you can buy. Right now, they're $50 off, which matches the best price we tend to see outside of special events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If you want to wait until November, they might hit $200 again, but otherwise £250 is a very fair deal—especially since they pop back up to £300 regularly.
Active noise cancellation makes a huge difference in your listening experience, whether it’s to play 10 hours of Coconut Mall on a loop or muffle the crying babies, sniffling neighbors, and mysterious clunking noises on an airplane. The earbuds also have some of the best active noise cancellation you can find, thanks to a custom sound profile based on the shape of your ears, but you can customize the EQ by using the app.
The battery life lasts for about six hours or 24 with the charging case. And while the noise cancellation can’t be beaten, these also have a pass-through feature called Aware mode, which filters in outside noise but smooths the loudest bits. That means you’ll be able to hear what’s going on, but you won’t be startled.
The only drawback is that they might not be ideal for folks with super-small ears, but otherwise, they’re great all around, with solid call quality, excellent sound overall, and a sleek aesthetic. We think they offer good value at full price, so an extra $50 off is especially nice.
