Amazon Prime Day is here, giving Prime members exclusive access to major deals across every major category like tech, smartwatches and vacuums. If you’re in need of a new pair of headphones, Amazon is currently discounting a handful of popular models. One of the best over-ear headphones we tested in 2025, these Bose QuietComfort headphones are nearly half off for Prime Day
NBC Select editors voted these Bose QuietComfort Bluetooth headphones the best for travel because they’re lightweight and compact, they come with a durable carrying case. Sound wise: hey use active noise cancellation technology to block out distracting sounds and they also come with a wired audio cable to plug into seat back entertainment on flights, according to NBC Select tech reporter Harry Rabinowitz. The battery life also lasts for up to 24 hours and they’re highly padded for comfort.
“I’ve tested earbuds and headphones from almost every major brand on the market and Bose continues to stand out,” says NBC Select commerce editor Jordan Bowman. “The brand’s headphones are expensive but they’re worth it when you consider the audio capabilities, the comfort and the build quality. I wore these on a trip to Denmark recently and they were incredibly lightweight and comfortable. I also love the tactile physical buttons, which are incredibly responsive.”
