The Bose QuietComfort headphones are an excellent pair of noise-canceling headphones. The ANC is still amongst the very best, and they fold super small to make it easier to take them with you when you travel. You also get up to 24 hours of battery life.
Bose adds more goodies in the box for those who like to travel as well. There's an airplane audio adapter so that you can watch your in-flight movies without having to use the dreadful provided ear-destroyers (you know the ones). They can be used cabled in case the battery runs out, and you get an emergency four hours of battery life out of a quick ten-minute charge.
The headline feature of any Bose headphones is the ANC. Perfect for blocking out the noise of aircraft engines or busy buses, the QuietComfort headphones keep the outside world out when you want to be left alone. Need to talk to a flight attendant so that you can grab a fresh glass of... something? Activate the "aware" transparency mode and get the outside world played over your headphones so that you can converse with people.
There's only one issue — you can't turn the ANC off. You have to make do with the noise canceling or the aware mode, so you don't get the battery benefit of turning them off. But you still get an excellent 24 hours of battery life on a charge.
Overall, the Bose QuietComfort headphones are some of the best noise-canceling headphones for travel, and this deal makes them cheaper than they've ever been. Want to see how much extra you can get off Bose gear? Check out these Bose coupon codes to see how much you can save.
