The Bose QuietComfort II earbuds are $100 off right now

Amazon Prime Day 2024 is fast approaching, but there are already a bunch of solid deals on tech products in the leadup to the giant annual sale. Case in point: a quality set of active noise cancelling (ANC) wireless earbuds is currently $100 off. The Bose QuietComfort II earbuds typically retail for $279, but it's available in Soapstone and Triple Black colorways for $179. That marks an all-time-low price for these earbuds.

Admittedly, this isn't the latest set of ANC earbuds in Bose's lineup. The most recent model, Bose QuietComfort Ultra, is among our picks for the best wireless earbuds. However, a set of those costs $299. The QuietComfort II buds offer similar features at what's currently a significantly lower price, though it's an older model.

At the time of Engadget's review in September 2022, senior reporter Billy Steele declared that the QuietComfort II was the top choice for anyone seeking earbuds with top-of-the-line noise blocking (our current recommendation for the best ANC earbuds is the QuietComfort Ultra, as it happens). The QuietComfort II's ANC capabilities are better than on the original model, while Bose made improvements to the audio quality and ambient sound mode. The buds personalize ANC and audio performance for your ears too.

On the downside, six hours of battery life is a little on the low side (even by 2022 standards). The lack of useful, increasingly common features such as multipoint pairing and wireless charging proved disappointing too. Still, if you're looking for a set of earbuds that do a strong job of blocking out background noise without breaking the bank, the Bose QuietComfort II is by and large a terrific option.
