We’re traveling again and that means we’re breaking out the noise-cancelling headphones (for the plane or train — not, ahem, when we’re driving).
Our favorite over-ear cans to drown out noise arrive from Bose, and that audio brand’s excellent QuietComfort 35 II headphones are now $50 off and down to $249, tied for the lowest price we’ve seen in 2021.
Why these wireless headphones? They’re comfortable, lightweight, handsome but demure, and the noise cancellation (available in two different levels) is some of the best we’ve ever used — we can drown out crying babies (or adults) on flights. Plus, they feature voice controls (Alexa, Google Assistant) if you want ’em, 20 hours of battery life per charge and, thankfully, the controls are old-school tactile buttons, not the annoying “tap the side of the headphone” touch controls.

The sale on either black or silver Bose QuietComfort 35 II headphones runs through August 22 or until supplies last. The sale also includes a 90-day risk-free trial and free standard shipping and returns.
