Deal | Amazon offers Bose QuietComfort headphones with top-notch noise cancellation at a bargain price

Select Bose QuietComfort headphones are on sale at Amazon following a 45-percent discount from their MSRP of $359, including the Black, Cypress Green, Moonlight Grey, Petal Pink, Sandstone, and White Smoke variants.

The QuietComfort over-ear headphones offer Bluetooth wireless connectivity to audio sources. When the battery is empty, they can still be used as wired headphones thanks to a 3.5 mm audio jack. The battery is rated for up to 24 hours of runtime and charges in 2.5 hours, says Bose.  Protein leather is used to pad the headband and earcups for comfort.

In addition to the passive seal created by the earcups, the QuietComfort headphones incorporate Bose noise cancellation technology to further reduce surrounding noise, and Rtings found they are "amazing at attenuating external noise."

As a con, the very latest noise-cancelling headphone from Bose offers better noise cancellation, according to Rtings reviews. The Bose QuietComfort is rated 9.0 for noise isolation, whereas the $449 Bose QuietComfort Ultra (Gen. 2) is rated 9.3. Also, the QuietComfort is a poor choice for gamers due to a noticeable audio lag of 183 ms over Bluetooth connections.

Buy the Bose QuietComfort headphones for $199 on Amazon today.
