Why you should buy the Bose QuietComfort headphones

It’s the Bose QuietComfort Ultra that are on top of our list of the best noise-canceling headphones, but you definitely won’t regret going for their more affordable version — the Bose QuietComfort. You’ll be missing out on some of the more advanced features such as AptX Adaptive support, but these wireless headphones still provide topnotch active noise cancellation that blocks all external sound, as well as an Aware Mode that will let you hear what’s going on around you without having to take them off.

The Bose QuietComfort headphones offer impressive audio quality with adjustable EQ through the Bose app to let you personalize the experience. The wireless headphones are made with premium materials that make them comfortable to wear all day, which will allow you to maximize their battery life of up to 24 hours on a single charge. A quick charge of just 15 minutes through the headphones’ USB-C port will give you back 2.5 hours of usage, so the Bose QuietComfort will never be out of commission for long.

There’s always high demand for Bose headphone deals, so we expect Best Buy’s $100 discount for the Bose QuietComfort headphones to attract a lot of attention from shoppers. You won’t always get the chance to buy these noise-canceling headphones for $249 instead of their original price of $349, and once the bargain ends, we’re not sure when it will resurface. If you’re already looking forward to listening to your favorite tunes with the Bose QuietComfort headphones, make sure that you get them for cheaper than usual by proceeding with the transaction right now.

I desperately want a new classic Walkman, but Sony probably can’t give me one
Tech minimalism is begging for a new Walkman. Though rebuilding it may be close to impossible
Sony Walkman WM2011

Every few months, another piece of tech that seems obsolete crawls out of a drawer and becomes cool again. The age of minimalism has revived the popularity of iPods among younger buyers. Dumbphones have become an escape hatch from endless notifications. Similarly, digital cameras are dangling from bags again. Physical media keeps attracting people who want something they can actually hold instead of another frustrating subscription.

All of this makes it the perfect time for Sony to bring back the classic Walkman, which was a phenomenon during the 80s and 90s. I would love one. Give me a compact cassette player, physical buttons, and wired headphones. Keep the apps, notifications, and algorithms that shape your taste of music. No more AI assistants or personalzied feeds, just you and your Walkman. There is only one problem though. Recreating the Walkman that people love and remember, would be far harder than putting an old design back into production.

Proton reveals how smart TVs track you and the escape situation is pretty grim 
Modern smart TVs fingerprint your screen content at the chipset level.

Your smart TV may know far more about your viewing habits than you realize, even if you rarely use its smart features. In a new privacy explainer, Proton warns that many modern TVs quietly collect data about everything displayed on the screen and share it with manufacturers, advertisers, and analytics companies.

The worrying part is that escaping this tracking is becoming increasingly difficult because many privacy controls are buried deep in settings or enabled by default. Proton argues that buying a smart TV today often means accepting a level of surveillance that most people never knowingly signed up for.

LG is cracking down on smart TV apps that quietly turn your TV into a secret proxy
LG OLED Settings

If you own an LG smart TV, there's a chance one of your harmless-looking apps has been moonlighting as an internet relay for someone else's traffic. According to a report from KrebsOnSecurity, LG says it's finally stepping in to stop this menace. This week, the company confirmed it plans to suspend any webOS app that turns a TV into what's called a residential proxy node.

The move follows a report from security firm Spur, which found that more than 42 percent of apps on LG's webOS store include SDKs that quietly reroute internet traffic through your TV, indefinitely. Samsung isn't spared either, with over a quarter of Tizen apps carrying similar code.
