Amazon is now offering the fantastic Sony XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones for $299.99 shipped. Regularly $300 and now matched as part of Best Buy’s Deals of the Day, this is a straight up $100 price drop and the lowest price we can find on some of the best noise cancelling headphones in the game. Best Buy’s sale price is limited to the navy blue colorway, but at Amazon you’ll find those alongside the the silver model down at the discounted rate. Today’s deal comes within a couple bucks of the fall Prime Day sale and the lowest we have tracked on Amazon since release.
You’re looking at a pair of headphones that give the best-of-the best, typically in an even higher price range, a run for their money, including Apple’s AirPods Max ($549) and the latest Bose Ultra set ($429). Some folks swear by the audio and noise cancellation quality on Sony’s over-ears, and in my experience, it’s hard to deny. The previous-generation XM4 set is still a great option, but they are selling for the same price as the new XM5 release right now.
Sony’s XM5s deliver up to 30 hours of wireless listening time on a single charge alongside an additional 3 hours of playback after a 3-minute quick charge. The brand’s Speak-to-Chat tech is in place here once again, automatically muting your audio to let the outside world in when it it detects you engaging in conversation, alongside the collapsible, travel-friendly hinge as well as Precise Voice Pickup Technology with “advanced audio signal processing” to help ensure your call utility remains clear “even when you are in noisy situations.”
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.
