Engadget’s Billy Steele praised the headphones’ sound, ANC, and comfort in our review, but also found them a little pricey at their standard retail price, so this sale might be a good time to pick up a pair. The headphones are comfortable for long listening sessions — with enough battery life to handle it. While their “Immersive Audio” spatial listening mode is a bit hit or miss (and not for everyone), the feature pairs incredibly well with some songs and genres. The headphones are our runners-up in Engadget’s noise-cancelling headphones guide.

Battery life is impressive, and our review unit beat Bose’s claims of 24 hours with ANC on or 18 hours with ANC and Immersive Audio enabled. In Engadget’s testing of the latter mode, the headphones still had 30 percent remaining after 20 hours of listening. They have a streamlined design with fewer physical navigation buttons than the standard QuietComfort variant, giving them a sleeker aesthetic. This includes metal in the headband and hinge (no visible screws).

Amazon has too several other Bose products on sale. The highly rated QuietComfort Ultra headphones, which have similar features in a compact in-ear form factor, are available at a $50 discount ($249). They also include a surround audio mode and have impressive ANC to block out your environment when you’re working or commuting. They’re our pick for the best noise canceling in Engadget’s wireless headphone buying guide.

If spatial audio algorithms aren’t your cup of tea, you can save $100 on the standard Bose QuietComfort Headphones. They also have class-leading noise blocking and high-quality sound, missing only the illusion of sitting in an acoustic “Immersive Audio” sweet spot. They offer 24-hour battery life and multi-point connectivity for easy switching between multiple source devices.

Bose also has the same sale on their website, a good option if you don’t have Amazon Prime. You can hit full sale for details.
