As part of its Black Friday Week Deals, Amazon is now offering the Sony WF-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Earbuds down at $228 shipped. Regularly $300, this is nearly 25% off and the lowest price we can find. You will also find these popular in-ears marked down over at Best Buy as part of its Black Friday event at $230 shipped. Both retailers are offering all three colors down at the respective discounted prices to deliver a price on par with this year’s Prime day deal. While we have seen a couple very short-lived and fleeting offers for a few bucks less at Amazon, seeing the XM5 buds down at under $230 is a notable price and on par with just about all of the best deals we have spotted this year otherwise.
The latest Sony XM5 buds, as we have detailed previously, are among the best in the business. They give Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 a run for their money and, for some folks, out perform them in both the audio quality and and ANC departments. While you can score a pair of AirPods Pro 2 down at $169.99 shipped right now as part of Amazon’s Black Friday Week Deals, or within $10 of the all-time low, Sony’s XM5 buds make for a notable, arguably higher-end platform agnostic solution for both iOS and Android users.
Sony’s buds deliver some of the best ANC action in the product category alongside the brand’s V2 processor with “Sony’s best ever call quality [that leverages an] AI based noise reduction algorithm and bone conduction sensor.”
Adaptive sound control tech automatically factors in the noise around you at any given time while the brand’s speak-to-chat tech automatically pauses your audio if you start up a conversation while listening to some tunes. From there, you’ll find up to 24 hours of battery life with the included charging case alongside an additional hour with a 3-minute quick charge and a water-resistant build.
Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones feature:
The WH-1000XM5 headphones rewrite the rules for distraction-free listening. Two processors control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise canceling and exceptional call quality. From airplane noise to people’s voices, our WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones with multiple microphone noise canceling keep out more high and mid frequency sounds than ever. The light and rigid precision-engineered driver unit improves high frequency sensitivity for more natural sound quality. With Precise Voice Pickup Technology and advanced audio signal processing, the person on the other end of the call will hear your voice clearly, even when you are in noisy situations.
