New Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) – Desert Gold

Product Overview

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen) in striking Desert Gold represent the pinnacle of true wireless audio, combining world-class active noise cancellation with breakthrough spatial sound processing.

Upgraded with Bluetooth® 5.3 multipoint connectivity, Snapdragon Sound™ with aptX™ Adaptive support, an integrated nozzle earwax guard, and a Qi-certified wireless charging case, the QC Ultra 2nd Gen delivers unparalleled acoustic performance for daily life in Kenya.
