Pre-order new BOSE QC35 II Over-Ears and SoundSports Free Truly Wireless Earphones

BOSE has revealed two new headphones the last few days, and they are now available for pre-ordering at authorized dealer B&H Photo.

The second generation QuietComfort QC35 II bluetooth and ANC closed-back over-ears are available in two color schemes with a pre-order price of $349 and a mid-October 2017 shipment estimate.

“Truly wireless” earphones are all the rage these days, and Bose has jumped on this hype train with the new Bose SoundSport Free Wireless In-Ears (bluetooth) in two color schemes, the conventional black and the navy-citron, for $249 each. There is no release estimate for this model.

UPDATE: pre-orders for the Truly Wireless Bose model are also accepted at Amazon.com with an October 22nd release estimate.

Used Jabra Halo Free Bluetooth Earphones for $18 (missing accessories)

The Jabra Halo Free Wireless (bluetooth) earphones go for $55+ in new condition at recognizable online retailers, but if you want to pay 1/3rd of that price, you can get them in “Used – Good” condition (cosmetic imperfection, missing accessories, damaged packaging) for $18~ by Amazon Warehouse Deals (AWD) actual. AWD actual has only one listing, the rest of the used listings are by other sellers.

To recap for the high-speed readers, this is missing accessories!

PS: the description says “missing earbuds”. I’m assuming that means it’s missing the eartips, not the actual “earbuds”, earbuds as in earphones. They wouldn’t sell a decapitated pair of earphones 🙂
