Update 27 Nov: Amazon sold out of its deal allocation, but Bose.com has an equal price-match, so I've updated the links and information below.
As I continue to look over the T3 Awards 2024 winners and reflect on a great year, it's great to see that many of the year's very best products benefitting from price cuts in the best Black Friday deals – it's all part of the sales season going into hyperdrive. My favourite headphones for travel this year have also seen a mega price cut.
See the Bose QC Ultra Headphones deal at Bose.com
Bose's QuietComfort Ultra Headphones are perfection on so many levels: great-looking over-ear cans that are comfortable to wear for long periods – I genuinely sleep with them on when flying – and provide the best ANC money can buy right now. That makes the headphones I most recommend this year even more recommendable!
I've already said that these headphones won a T3 Award 2024, but it's even better than that: while the Bose nabbed the Best Travel Headphones award first up, they also netted Product of the Year. It's easy to see why they reviewed as a 5-star product.
Since reviewing these over-ears, I've been using the Bose most days – sometimes I swap for the Sonos Ace (also on offer, I must add) – and I'm always impressed by the level of bass, the audio quality, and particularly the way ANC blots out outside noise. That's really important for me – whether in the gym and not wanting to hear their choice of music, or commuting on the Tube and trying to focus.
There's even spatial audio, with the free app offering levels of enhancement to the three-dimensional processing feature, to create an even more immersive experience. And you can tinker the EQ to make the sound profile more fitting of your needs – it's got it all.
Originally this deal was available from Amazon – which you might preference due to Prime membership and speedy, free delivery. However, the Ultra Headphones allocation appears to have sold out there, so Bose's official store is where to pick them up for the very same asking price. That's the lowest ever – as I've verified using third-party tracker CamelCamelCamel. The previous best was £329.99, so this is one great deal.
