Ahead of Black Friday, Bose direct is offering an outstanding deal on its flagship Bose QuietComfort Ultra Noise Cancelling Wireless Headphones. Right now you can get a Factory Refurbished model for only $251.10 after you apply promo code "SAVE10" in cart. As a comparison, a brand new pair would run you $429. You'd be saving 42% off the retail price and getting the same one-year warranty as buying new. The Ultra is Bose's latest and greatest noise cancelling headphone. I own a pair as well as the Sony WH-1000XM5 and, in my unprofessional opinion, I prefer the Ultra more because it's more comfortable to wear on my big head, and the noise cancellation is better.

The QuietComfort Ultra is Bose's best noise-cancelling headphones. It is a significant upgrade compared to the standard QuietComfort in audio and noise-cancelling performance and is easily comparable to other current heavyweights like the Sony WH-1000XM5 and the AirPods Max. The Ultra features redesigned ear cushions that are both more comfortable and provide a more secure seal, resulting in better passive noise isolation. It also supports spatial audio for better immersion, and it's updated with the new Bluetooth 5.3 protocol. Android users can rejoice in the fact that the Ultra supports Snapdragon Sound, a feature that offers optimized sound quality, connection stability, and latency for your streaming audio when the headphone is connected to an Android device.
Other features include an "Aware" mode that picks up ambient noises and amplifies them so that you can listen in on the outside world without having to take off your headphones, a respectable 24 hours of battery life on a single charge, an updated USB Type-C port, Bluetooth multipoint for simultaneous pairing with up to two devices, and a dual-hinge design that enables the headphones to fold up and flat.
