Bose QuietComfort 45 SE Noise Cancelling Headphones $249 + Delivery ($0 C&C/In-Store) @ JB Hi-Fi

360

Needed to grab a set before an upcoming flight and found this deal. Not the lowest historically but cheaper than anywhere else I can find right now.

    Yes, these are identical to the QC45s, just with a soft case instead of a hard shell

    • And they only come in black, no deal. Negs all round!

    • Are you @jv or @jv clone?

    I just got this a few days ago. Bloody. Has anyone managed to get a difference refund from JB?

    • +2

      Yes, if it’s within 14 days then they will refund the difference. Either go to the store or ask live chat.

      • Thanks for the info

  • Returned the one I got on the last deal for $209. Bose were kind enough to replace this with the QuietComfort (worth 450$) but the mic quality is super bad in the replacement (brand new unit) as well. I guess unless you go for Ultra there is no good mic quality. For ANC and music it’s great!

    • Thanks for the info. Microphone is important to me

    • Did you get it directly with Bose and why would they replace it with a different model?

    Can't decide whether to bite the bullet on this or wait for some deals on the QC 2023 - 2 hours more battery life, slightly better bass/sound, Bluetooth 5.2 etc.

      Some differences on the QC 2023 vs QC45

      windblock option on the QC 2023 (QC45 struggles with wind noise)
      
      24 h battery life (22h for the QC 45)
      
      you can turn off multi point connections (QC45 sometimes struggle with two devices connected)
      
      Bassier sound profile on the QC 2023
      
      Adjustable ANC and ANC profiles on the QC 2023 (Quiet or Ambient only on QC45)
      

      Mind you this was posted 5 months ago

        yeah the QC45s have windblock now with new firmware update.

        • Are you sure it’s fixed? Doesn’t mention it in the firmware release notes

          • @roofyapple: just did the update. wind not blocked.

            • +1

              @mit: Windblock works in the update for me, I created an 'outdoor' profile and added windblock and it's much more usable now (it does mean less ANC when windblock is on although that's not an issue for my use).

              • @Riveon: hmm. I might have to have a closer look at the app. Didnt't see the windblock setting.

  • But microphone?

    • +1

      Would also like to know the quality of the microphone for calls. Have Sennheiser 450bt but they absolutely suck for calls, they pick up all noise around me

    Was this an Easter long weekend sale? Just jumped on the jb hi Fi site and it came up as $329.

    • ditto, $329 comes up

    • According to Bose the QC SE have been discontinued
