Bose QuietComfort (non‑Ultra) headphones on sale: $199 (45% off)

Best Buy’s early Black Friday event has knocked the Bose QuietComfort (non‑Ultra) headphones down to $199 — a 45% discount that matches their record low from Prime Day. Amazon has matched the price, making this a good window to pick up comfortable, ANC‑focused cans at a strong value.

These QuietComfort headphones offer top‑tier comfort, active noise cancellation with Quiet and Aware modes, wind reduction features and around 24 hours of battery life. They also support quick charging (about 2.5 hours of listening from a 15‑minute charge).

Why this deal is worth considering

• Price: $199 matches a historic low — solid value for Bose ANC and comfort.
• Performance: Very good ANC and comfortable fit; audio quality is excellent for the price though the Ultra model offers extra features.
• Battery & charging: Approximately 24 hours per charge and fast USB‑C quick charge.
• Availability: Best Buy and Amazon have the discounted price during early Black Friday promotions.

Things to note

This model lacks the Ultra’s spatial audio features and does not offer a full ANC off switch (it toggles between Quiet and Aware). If you travel frequently and need the absolute longest battery life possible, compare to other models. But if you mostly use ANC or Aware modes, this sale makes the QuietComfort an excellent pick.

Discussion: Would you grab the QuietComfort at $199 or wait for other Black Friday offers — and which feature matters most to you in ANC headphones: comfort, noise cancellation, battery life, or audio fidelity?
