Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days 2024 event is here, and the deals are fantastic. As expected, the sale includes some shockingly impressive deals on Sony wireless headphones and Bluetooth earbuds.

One of the stars of the show is a huge discount on previous-generation flagship Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless noise cancelling headphones. They retail for $348, and they haven’t gone on sale at all recently. Right now, however, you can save $100 and get a pair for $198. That’s the lowest price ever for this model. Or, if you want Sony’s latest and greatest flagship ANC headphones, the current-gen Sony WH-1000XM5 model is down to $298 instead of $400.

Several other Sony headphones and earbuds models are also on sale during Amazon’s Fall Prime Day event. In fact, you can even enjoy one of the deepest-ever discounts on the class-leading Sony WF-1000XM5 ANC earbuds. These are the earphones that I use personally, and they definitely have the best noise cancelling tech in the industry.

You’ll find those models and more in our big roundup of the best Sony headphones deals of Prime Big Deal Days this year. Prices start at just $38!

Apple’s AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 with ANC are among the two most popular options for headphones among our readers. Apple’s new entry-level AirPods 4 are also expected to be top-sellers during the Prime Big Deal Days event, since they’re down to just $119.

That shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. AirPods are the most popular headphones in the world, of course. Another contributing factor is that they’re both currently discounted to the lowest prices of the month at Amazon.

AirPods are great, but if you want over-ear headphones, Apple’s only option is the AirPods Max. And they’re far too expensive for many shoppers out there. That’s true even now while they’re discounted right now.

But why would you buy them anyway when Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless noise cancelling headphones are so much better AND so much cheaper during Prime Big Deal Days?

Our favorite Sony headphones on sale

Are you a self-professed audiophile? Or are you just a regular user looking for great noise cancelling headphones that don’t cost $400 or more?

Either way, Amazon has an incredible sale going on right now that you need to know about. Long story short, the Prime Big Deal Days event is definitely the best time to buy Sony headphones.

Prices start at just $38 for Sony WH-CH520 wireless headphones, which normally sell for $58. Or, if you want wireless earbuds instead of over-ear headphones, deals start at $84.99 for the popular Sony WF-C700N.

High-end models like the Sony WH-1000XM4 ANC headphones and hot new Sony WF-1000XM5 are on sale too, and those are my favorite deals.

Which models have the best deals?

We’ve already mentioned that Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless noise cancelling headphones were down to the lowest price ever. These best-in-class ANC headphones are no longer the latest and greatest model since Sony launched the upgraded WH-1000XM5 version last year. But not everyone wants to spend $400 on headphones.

That’s why the Sony WH-1000XM4 deal is so impressive. These headphones are already very competitive at $348, especially when you consider that they’re better than Apple’s $549 AirPods Max. Right now, however, Amazon’s huge discount slashes your price to an all-time low of $198.

Meanwhile, if you want Sony’s best and newest active noise cancelling headphones, you’re obviously shopping for Sony WH-1000XM5 wireless noise cancelling headphones.

It really doesn’t get much better than Sony XM5 in terms of audio quality and active noise cancelling tech. I’ve been using Sonos Ace headphones a lot lately, mostly because they pair so well with my Sonos Arc soundbar. I would say the sound quality is almost as good as Sony’s, but I do find myself missing Sony’s crazy class-leading ANC.

Put plainly, if you want the best of the best, you’re shopping for Sony WH-1000XM5 wireless noise cancelling headphones.

These headphones retail for $400, but you can get Sony XM5 headphones on sale for $298 during Prime Big Deal Days.

If you want over-ear headphones, but you don’t want to spend quite that much, there are three other deals I want to highlight for you.

My favorite is the one that drops Sony WH-CH720N noise cancelling headphones to just $88 from $150. That’s a great discount, and it’s the lowest price of the season for these popular Sony headphones.

Finally, if you want to spend as little as possible, there are two entry-level models that are also on sale.

Sony Bluetooth earbuds are on sale, too

If you want new earbuds, there are several Sony deals you should check out.

First, there’s a rare discount on Sony WF-1000XM5 ANC earbuds, which are Sony’s latest and greatest new earphones model. It’s a nice big discount at $72 off, and it matches the lowest price ever for this model.

I use Sony XM5 earphones personally, and I absolutely love them. People often try to compare them to AirPods Pro, but in my opinion, there’s really no way to compare them. Sony XM5 earbuds are in a completely different stratosphere in terms of both sound quality and ANC quality.

If you’re looking for something more affordable, I’ve got two great options for you to check out.
