Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 Earbuds Drop $50—A Serious Challenge to AirPods Pro 3 for Non-Apple Users

While Apple loyalists snap up $50-off AirPods Pro 3 deals, Bose is quietly undercutting the noise-canceling earbud war with a $250 QuietComfort Ultra 2 deal—no Apple ecosystem required.

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 Earbuds are discounted to $250 (Desert Gold) or $269-$255 (Midnight Violet) with a $50 reduction from their standard price.

Features include improved noise cancellation, adaptive sound profiles based on ear shape, wireless charging in the case, 6 hours of battery life (24 total with case), and a full EQ app for customization. The cross-platform compatibility makes them a direct competitor to Apple AirPods Pro 3 but tailored for non-Apple users.

Reviewers have highlighted the 'truly advanced tech' for adaptive sound profiling. Parker Hall specifically called out the Aware mode, which is like pass-through but with some smoothing for the loudest real-world sounds.

Available at Amazon and Best Buy with color-specific pricing disparities, the Ultra 2 positions itself as a serious contender in the premium noise-canceling earbud market.
