Save $100: Snap the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra headphones for $329 on Amazon, which costs $429. As of March 31, it was the last day of Amazon’s big spring sale, and the 23% discount was live.
When Bose named their Quietcomfort series, they hit the nails on their heads.
In the series are the Bose Quietcomfort Ultra headphones, which are considered the most comfortable headphones, not one, not two, but three separate journalists from the Mashable shopping team. As of March 31, the last day of the big spring sale, Amazon marked them at $329, lowering the price from the $80 price cut we found earlier in the sale.

In the fall of 2023, I personally tested the Bose QC Ultra headphones, which is shortly after they arrived. I asked them to test their comfort through the ringtones-I kept them all my workday, wore them with earrings, and even flew over the cross-country while wearing glasses. In each case, they feel cushioned and solid, but not too heavy. As lead shopping journalist Dylan Haas put it, “many headphones make “all-day comfort” advertising a feature, but rarely does it.” Like me, he was able to use them all day without any soreness.
That being said, they are not perfect. While their noise reduction is great (Bose after all), shopping journalist Sam Mangino wasn’t completely impressed, writing in her comment: “While noise removal is really good at blocking the sound of the bass, it doesn’t completely stop the sound of the treble unless you convert the sound into an unhealthy sound.” She also believes that sound quality doesn’t stand out among other quality options.
Mixable transactions
I also found that their multipoint pairing may be inconsistent at times, but this is a problem I have had with Bose in general. While annoying, such issues are easier to overlook when you don’t pay the full price. If you want to buy these headphones at the absolute lowest price ever, you might want to pass this time – in the past, we’ve seen them drop to $299.
