We typically see solid deals on headphones and earbuds for Prime Day every year, and this time around is no different. One of the best ones right now is on the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones — they're just about $100 off right now and on sale for $298. We saw them briefly drop to $285 the other day, but that discount was short lived. Regardless, this is one of the best discounts we've seen on these cans all year and all color options are included in the sale.
These headphones once topped our list of the best wireless headphones before being usurped by the XM6. They are still fantastic, despite being slightly outshined by the newer kid on the block. We praised the "supreme comfort" and "great sound" in our official review, along with the powerful ANC technology.
The battery life is also incredible here. Users can expect around 30 hours per charge, which will more than handle a long train ride or flight. It's also lighter than the XM4, which adds to the overall comfort. There are touch controls on the outside panel of the right ear cup, with the ability to play, pause, skip tracks and adjust the volume.
These cans also work with various voice assistants and there's an affiliated app that allows for even more customization. The headphones offer multipoint connectivity and there are a handful of integrated microphones for phone calls. The only downside here remains the price, which has been somewhat alleviated by this sale.
