Today Only: Bose Ultra Open Earbuds Just Hit a New $189 Low

Score some of CNET’s favorite open earbuds for with a huge $110 discount while you can.

Headphones and earbuds are great for listening to music, but some go a step further with unique designs for specific use cases. The Bose’s Ultra Open Earbuds are a great example. They’re some of the best open-ear earbuds and running headphones around right now. Even better, Best Buy is offering them for their lowest ever price. But you’ll need to be quick because this deal only has hours left, ending at midnight on Dec. 15. 

You can pick up these top-rated earbuds today with a sizeable $110 discount, but only in the lunar blue color. That means you’ll pay just $189 if you’re quick. Looking for deals on other colors? Amazon is offering a couple more colors for just $10 extra.

In his review, CNET expert audio David Carnoy said that, «If you can afford the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds, you’re getting an excellent set of open earbuds that not only feature top-notch sound for this type of earbud but an appealing design in terms of a secure and comfortable fit.»

He didn’t love the price, but this deal helps alleviate that issue. These earbuds have amazing sound quality, a unique design and plenty of excellent features to boot.

The Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are a wild little twist on your usual in-ear buds. They offer an open-ear design that perches on the edge of your ears, letting in the world around you while still piping in your music with surprisingly full sound. Plus, they’ve got spatial audio, 27 hours of total battery life and stay put during workouts. They’re also IPX4 rated, so they’ll survive your sweat-inducing gym sessions.

There’s no doubt in our minds that this is one of the best offers available at the moment. Just make sure you buy them soon if you want them, because this $110 discount is only available today.

Why this deal matters

Headphones that cost hundreds of dollars may feel excessive, but the sound quality and features they deliver can make them worth it — if you can swing the price. Knocking $110 off puts them within reach for more people — and that’s always a win. This is the lowest price we’ve seen, so we don’t expect them to drop further any time soon.
