The best Prime Day deals on earbuds and headphones overall
- Sony’s WF-1000XM4 noise-canceling earbuds — still our top pick in the category — are on sale for $198, way down from their usual $279.99. The 1000XM4s offer superb noise cancellation and sound quality in a comfortable set of earbuds and also include many extra software features. Read our review.
- Apple’s AirPods Pro are on sale for $169.98 instead of $249 with a MagSafe-ready charging case, which is just $10 more than their all-time low. Their noise-cancellation is excellent, while their swappable silicone tips allow for a more comfortable fit. Read our review.

Sony’s fantastic WH-1000XM4 headphones are on sale for $228 ($122 off), making this a new all-time low. These were once our favorite noise-canceling headphones before the newer WH-1000XM5 took over, yet are still great with terrific sound and voice quality, as well as support for two simultaneous Bluetooth connections.
- Bose’s QuietComfort Earbuds have dropped to just $179
$179.99, a $100 discount from what you’d normally pay. Their active noise cancellation is right up there with Sony’s, and some people prefer Bose’s sound signature. Read our review.

- Anker’s Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro are just $89.99 ($80 off). These earbuds offer decent active noise cancellation (ANC), ear and wing tips for a more comfortable tip, and Bluetooth multipoint support. Read our review.
- It wouldn’t be Prime Day without a discount on Amazon’s own gadgets. The second-gen Echo Buds are $69.99 (originally $119.99). They’re getting a little old at this point but still offer a good combination of sound quality and noise cancellation. Read our review.
