Bose's QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are currently on sale for $249, representing a $50 discount at Amazon and Best Buy. The price matches the second-lowest figure recorded for the second-generation hardware.
While the hardware design remains largely unchanged from the previous generation, the earbuds feature improvements in sound and call quality. The device maintains a bass-heavy profile but offers clear high-end frequencies through a three-band EQ available in the Bose app.
Advanced noise cancellation
The Ultra Earbuds feature 11 adjustable levels of active noise cancellation (ANC), allowing users to toggle between full suppression and transparency mode. This range includes a customizable 'Aware mode' designed to help users hear conversations and ambient surroundings.
Bose also includes Immersive Audio technology in the earbuds. This feature provides a sense of depth similar to Apple's spatial audio when playing compatible content.
Other hardware deals are also appearing in the consumer electronics market. Belkin's BoostCharge Pro 2-in-1 charging stand is currently priced at $34.99 on Woot, a $65 reduction from its previous price. The stand supports 15W wireless charging for iPhone 12 and newer models.
In the gaming peripheral market, the Turtle Beach Stealth Pivot has hit an all-time low of $99.99. The controller features Hall effect sticks and swiveling modules that allow players to switch between traditional and retro-style layouts.
