Headphones

Amazon has now decided to bring back its spring sale price on the latest Google Pixel Buds Pro 2. You’ll now find select colors marked down to $169.99 shipped alongside some options for even lower prices courtesy of Best Buy’s open-box deals down below. 

As part of its wider sale on headphones and home audio gear, Woot is now offering Dyson’s Zone noise-cancelling headphones down at $169.99 Prime shipped (a $6 delivery fee will apply otherwise). These headphones made a huge splash when they debuted carrying a $950 price tag and a detachable air ventilation mask, and they’re still sitting around the $700 mark at Amazon. We saw them drop to roughly the $280 range in August last year, but today’s offer takes things much further with an additional $110 in savings off that previous low, ultimately landing at $780 off the original price and marking a new all-time low. If you’d rather score the brand’s relatively newer OnTrac ANC headphones, Amazon currently has them in both ANC aluminum and Copper finishes at $249.99 shipped. That’s 50% off its regular $500 price tag and the lowest we have tracked for them. While these headphones are different from the usual models available out there and fetched a premium at launch, they’re a lot easier to recommend now at their discounted price. Head below for more details.

As part of the Day 6 Amazon Big Spring Sale deals, we are now tracking its first straight up cash discount on the new Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. While there were some Amazon gift cards offers live previously, and you can still score a giant deal on the new pro buds when purchased alongside the Galaxy S26+ or Galaxy S26 Ultra, Amazon is serving its first cash discount here today. 

If you’re going to be pre-ordering the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, or Galaxy S26 Ultra and also want the new Galaxy Buds 4/Pro, you’ll want to go straight over to Samsung. We have already detailed how you can score a massive 70% off the new Galaxy Buds 4 Pro with S26 orders, and you can literally score the base Galaxy Buds 4 for completely FREE of charge with pre-orders of the new phones (as detailed here), but if you’re not getting a phone, Amazon is serving up some FREE gift cards on the new buds too. Details below. 

As spotted by our cohorts across the virtual hall, Sony appears to have just essentially confirmed its upcoming WF-1000XM6 earbuds with a new teaser trailer on its official YouTube channel. While it hasn’t precisely stated as much, the tech lurking in the shadows here is almost certainly its next-generation earbuds. 

Update: The new Sony LinkBuds Clip Truly Wireless Open Earbuds are now available for purchase at Amazon and directly from Sony.

Today Sony is unveiling its next-generation open buds known as the LinkBuds Clip Truly Wireless Open Earbuds. Sony was among the pioneers in the open earbud space and after getting a chance to test these buds out for myself over the last few days, it looks like it’s delivering some of the better options on the market with its latest LinkBuds. 

Buying budget wireless headphones usually meant living with obvious trade-offs – at least until a few years ago. Even today, plenty of premium models still have their own shortcomings. That being said, there’s no shortage of affordable options out there that are slowly catching up and punch well above their weight class to challenge headphones that cost $300 or more. The Baseus Inspire XH1 I’ve been using over the past few weeks is a great example, delivering effective ANC, surprisingly good sound quality, and excellent battery life. They’ve easily become my favorite budget headphones of the year – and you can read on to find out why.

Burton Goods makes one of the nicer looking leather cases for AirPods Pro 2, and it just released its new AirPods Pro 3 model – 9to5 readers can score one with an exclusive 20% off launch deal using code 9TO520 at checkout too. 

Holiday deals start now at Bose. The lauded audio brand has now launched a fresh new holiday sale, and while we are still awaiting details on its official Black Friday event, today’s holiday sale is delivering prices on par or better than those we tracked for Prime Day this year. These deals are also matching the early Black Friday Doorbuster offers we featured recently. 

Update: The new Desert Gold Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have also surfaced on Amazon today.

We recently had a chance to go hands-on with the brand new QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Earbuds (2nd Gen) and loved very second of it. They debuted with three color options at $299, but a new Desert Gold – Limited Edition treatment seems to have just leaked on Amazon at $279 shipped. 

Bose unveiled its next-gen flagship QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds back in June shortly before we had a chance to test them out for ourselves, but the brand isn’t done yet. Today Bose is ready to reveal its brand-new flagship QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) with a host of immersive audio upgrades, detection tech, and enhancements across the board. 

Today Mophie is unleashing its new premium dual-device charging stand for AirPods Max. The  aptly named Max Charging Stand combines what the brands calls a premium anodized aluminum build with purpose-built AirPods Max features, including a magnetic USB-C charging dongle and auto sleep/wake functionality. Now available for purchase, you can get a closer look and more details down below. 

Labor Day is delivering some big time price drops on highly sought-after gear this year. From MacBooks and Android tablets to 2025 Samsung foldables and e-bikes, we are also tracking some particularly solid discounts on AirPods 4 and the amazing new Sony XM6 headphones. Those deals also join offers on Amazon’s latest Kindle readers and some of our favorite Apple gear accessories too. All of the most notable discounts are in our master hub right here, but be sure to head below for a closer look at our top 10 favorite Labor Day deals up for grabs today followed some ultra-affordable accessories and essentials starting from $4. 

While there are certainly a number of notable deals live directly from Samsung right now and in the Amazon Labor Day Sale for the long weekend, Woot is landing this morning with a particularly notable price on the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3. The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are currently marked down from $250 to $179.99 in the Amazon Labor Day event, and the Galaxy Buds 3 are on sale for $149.99, but Woot has the latter down at $74.99 Prime shipped. 

Bose debuted the second-generation QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds recently and we have now had a chance to test them out ahead of today’s pre-order launch. Frankly, the now previous models are still a wonderful set of buds that can mostly go toe-to-toe with the best of them – we weren’t even sure if we wanted Bose to change anything. But with some subtle tweaks here and there, enhancements to its already world-class noise cancellation tech, better call quality, and fine tuned audio, one of the best just got even better.

The Beats Solo 4 on-ear headphones are now $100 off at Amazon, including all of the colors it offers. Regularly $200, you’re looking at a straight up 50% price drop here on the brand’s latest on-ear releases in Matte Black, Black/Gold, Cloud Pink, and Slate Blue down at $99.95 shipped. Details below. 

We have already highlighted a number of deals and special bundle offers you can score right now with the more pricey Galaxy Z Fold 7, but what about the Galaxy Z Flip 7? Well there’s a ton of seriously wild options there too, and one of them (using the exclusive $50 credit you can score through our links) is that you can score a completely FREE pair of regularly $250 Galaxy Buds 3 Pro (among other things). Head below for details on how to make that happen.

While we still have one more day to go for this year’s massive Prime Day sale, there are already some absolutely amazing headphone and earbud deals up for grabs. While it comes as absolutely no surprise, the headphone and earbud category has been a very busy one this year so we thought we would organize the best options into one handy collection for you. The AirPods Pro 2 are $100 off and at the best price ever, much like the AirPods 4, the new Powerbeats Pro 2 have landed at a new all-time low and we have the very first cash discount on Sony’s brilliant XM6 headphones – if you’re going to buy some headphones this summer, you’ll probably want to do it now.

Today, Bose is unveiling the next-generation of its flagship wireless earbuds with the new QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen). The previous models are widely considered to be among the best options out there, going toe-to-toe with Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 and Sony’s XM5 buds, but now Bose is going to be the first to jump into the next-generation with what could be anywhere from 6 months or (much) more of a head start on the expected upcoming AirPods Pro 3. The new edition brings everything we already know and love about the current version alongside some key improvements in the adaptive noise cancellation, voice pickup, and wireless charging departments. 

Sony has now officially unveiled the new WH-1000XM6 headphones. What might be the most anticipated pair of headphones in the last year has finally arrived as a follow up to some of the most cherished over-ear ANC cans in the business. This time around featuring a new, faster processor, enhanced noise cancellation, even better call quality with upgraded AI noise reduction, and a nicer, more compact design, the question is whether or not all of this and another jump in price will have fans trading out their beloved XM5s (or something from the other brands) for the new XM6.

The looming and rumored upcoming release of the Sony XM6 headphones are easily the most anticipated thing in personal audio thus far in 2025. Leaks, rumors, and datamined details have been surfacing across the web in full force over the last few months (and well before that) but a listing for the new headphones quickly popped up on Amazon Spain over the last several hours, all but conforming an imminent release while also leaking a potential release date and the specs of the beloved next XM series headphones.

Some new details have surfaced pointing at what appears to be an imminent release of the more than long-awaited Sony XM6 headphones. Rumors, FCC filings, and datamined/import details seemingly point at an upcoming new release from Sony’s over-ear department, but a new leak courtesy of Apple’s Made for iPhone/iPad certification program suggest the next-generation of the beloved headphones could be revealed much sooner than not. 

Amazon is now offering various color options of the latest Bose Ultra Open Bluetooth Earbuds, including the sweet Diamond 60th Anniversary Edition set, down at $229 shipped. Regularly $299, this is $70 off, matching the price you’ll pay for a refurbished set right now straight from Bose, and the lowest we can find. This deal is also matched as part of the now live, weeklong Best Buy Spring Sale – details on that await right here. 

We are tracking some seemingly notable price drops on Samsung’s latest Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro right – they are down at $139.99 and $209.99, respectively, on Amazon and you’ll find even lower prices on “International Versions” via Woot right now. Some of these offers are matched directly on the Samsung site as well, down from the regular $180 and $250, but the question is are they actually as good as they might seem at a glance?

Earlier this month Apple’s Beats brand finally unleashed the next-generation Powerbeats Pro 2. After getting a chance to test them out, we said “they’re better in every way” while delivering built-in heart rate monitoring. For some, they easily give the AirPods Pro 2 a run for their money, if not for any other reason than the more secure fit made possible by the now somewhat iconic ear hook design. One thing they are not is on sale – if they are anything like the previous Beats earbuds release, it will be several months before we see a price drop. And that’s where Best Buy’s trade options come into play. Details below. 

Bose has decided to get in on the Valentine’s Day celebration this year again, now kicking its annual sale off one week ahead of the big day. While the Bose holiday deals were, in some cases, quite wild with some particularly notable price drops on select colorways of its latest releases, there’s still some great offers to scope out today if you missed out. One of the options that caught our eye first is the latest base model Bose QuietComfort Wireless Headphones with Active Noise Cancellation down at $249 shipped in seven different colorways via Amazon. Regularly $349, this is a straight up $100 price drop. 

We in fact just spotted a new Amazon all-time low on the base model AirPods 4 at $100, but Amazon is also bringing back Black Friday pricing on the latest 2024 Beats Solo Buds at $49.95 shipped. Regularly $80, you’ll now find this 38% price drop live on the Transparent Red, Matte Black, and Storm Gray colors. Now $10 under the previous Amazon deal price, today’s offer is matching the price we featured over Black Friday and in the lead up to Christmas last year. 

Amazon is now offering a couple of the latest colorways of the Beats Studio Pro over-ear headphones with a serious price drop today. Regularly $350, you can now land the Dune or Moon colorways down at $179.99 shipped. That’s a, frankly, giant $170 price drop that comes within $20 of the all-time low we have only tracked once before on these models. 

JBL has unveiled a new pair of headphones at CES 2025 called the Tour One M3, and this set has a bunch of noteworthy features that make it stand out from many other alternatives on the market. These headphones can be bought with an optional wireless transmitter to wirelessly connect to older devices, and they’ll hit the scene later this year in April for $399.95 shipped. Head below for more details.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to standout in the wireless earbuds space, I mean they are just earbuds after all. We’ve seen models with touchscreen displays on the cases, audio retransmission, and even some impressive hearing test and silent gesture tech from Apple, so what’s left? Well perhaps not much but the new Audio-Technica buds being unleashed at CES to have particularly impressive battery life and a sweet magnetic auto shut-off feature too. Check them out below. 

Amazon has now brought back its Black Friday all-time lows on the 2024 Sonos Ace noise cancelling headphones at $349 shipped in both the black and white colorways. This is a regularly $449 set of cans seeing a straight up $100 price drop to deliver the lowest price we can find. While we did see very short-lived offers on them that knocked an additional $50 off during the B&H and Adorama Black Friday sales, today’s deals are otherwise on par with the lowest price we have tracked and matching the all-time low at Amazon. They are also matched over at Best Buy right now as well.
