Sony’s amazing XM5 wireless noise cancelling headphones just dropped $100 for Prime Day

REg. $398+ $298
Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones

As part of its Prime Big Deal Days event, Amazon is now offering a deep $100 price drop on the wonderful Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones down at $298 shipped. Considered by many to be among the best noise cancelling over-ear headphones out there, alongside the previous-generation WH-1000XM4 that are also seeing a particularly notable $120 price drop for the fall Prime Day event down at $228 shipped, you can now save a straight up $100 off the latest Sony XM5 headphones to land on par with the deal we tracked during the summer Prime event. 

The latest Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones easily give AirPods Max and the latest Bose Ultras a run for their money, and typically at a much lower price point (especially with the Prime Day deals we are seeing right now). They deliver, what is for many, the very best active noise cancellation you’ll find on the market by way of “two processors that control eight microphones for unprecedented noise canceling.”

While some folks still swear by the previous-generation XM4 set, and I personally think the Bose Ultra and AirPods Max are also great options, these Sony cans will save you some cash and provide an absolutely wonderful listening experience. 

The Sony XM5s provide up to 30 hours of wireless playback per charge as well as an additional 3 hours after a 3-minute quick charge. The Speak-to-Chat function is a nice touch as well – it automatically stops your audio to let the outside world in when it it detects you talking – while a collapsible, travel-friendly design allows for simple packing. 

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.
