Bose Holiday Savings: SoundLink Color Bluetooth Speaker $99 (Reg. $129), QC25 Headphones $249 (Reg. $299)


Amazon is discounting several Bose speakers and headphones for the holidays. Special prices are also available via Bose.com.

Our favorite deal from the bunch is the Bose SoundLink Color Bluetooth Speaker for $99 with free shipping. That’s $30 below its regular price and the lowest we’ve seen. Current generation Bose products rarely receive substantial discounts so saving 23% on this speaker is a real score. As its name would imply, this speaker is available in a range of hues, including Black, Blue, Red, White, and Mint. Features include a wireless range of up to 30-ft, compact design, and voice prompts to “make pairing your devices easier than ever.” This best-selling speaker is currently rated 4.7 out of 5 stars from 3,199 Amazon reviewers.

Update (12/22 4:00pm): BuyDig has the QuietComfort 25 Headphones in Black for $249 shipped.

Amazon also has the Bose QuietComfort 25 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones for $269 with free shipping. That’s only 10% off, but it’s notable since this is the first price drop of any kind we’ve seen on these cans. Features include an inline mic/remote (support for iOS/Android devices), around-ear fit, and noise-canceling technology. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars from 1,937 Amazon reviewers.
