The 5 best Amazon deals you can get this Thursday
1. Save $50: One of our favorite headphones
Amazon is currently offering a number of Bose products for discounts as part of its Epic Daily Deals event, and one of them is the QuietComfort 35 II wireless headphones. Usually listed for $299, these noise-canceling Bluetooth headphones are marked down by $50, bringing the price to $249. We ranked the 35 IIs as one of the best headphones we've ever tried thanks to the outstanding active noise cancellation that we found blocked out everything from the deep rumbling of a train to the higher-pitched humming of an air conditioner. This model's lightweight and comfortable feel, coupled with a 20-hour battery life, sweeten the deal. If you're looking for something more compact, check out the QuietComfort ($199), Sport ($149) and Sleepbuds II ($199) earbuds from Bose, which are also included in the sale.

The second-generation model is normally listed for $129.99, but it's on sale now for $99.99—a $30 price cut good on both the charcoal and Glacier White models. When we tested the Echo Show 8, we were impressed with the new 13-megapixel wide-angle camera used for video calls through Alexa Call, Drop-In and Zoom. Though we were disappointed with the lack of built-in YouTube access, the ability to stream music from Spotify or TV from Prime Video was impressive.

Usually listed for $2,699.99, this smart TV is now 30% off, or $1,897.99—one of its lowest prices yet. The Q80A is one of the best TVs we've ever tried and we recommend it specifically for gamers or those looking for a brighter screen. Though its panel type produces shallow black levels, making it less than ideal for those watching in dimmer settings, we found it delivered extra-wide horizontal viewing angles, great for group viewings.
