The best headphone and earbud deals on day two of Amazon Prime Day

3 weeks ago 6

Amazon is continuing many of its best headphone and earbud discounts on the second day of its October Prime Day sale. If you want to get a jump on your holiday shopping — or just treat yourself to a new upgrade — this is a great opportunity to do so.

Apple’s AirPods Pro, which are about to receive significant hearing health features, can be had at a great price, but there are also excellent options from Sony, Bose, Samsung (like the Buds 3 Pro I just reviewed), Sennheiser, and other mainstays in this category. If you want to take out the guesswork, check out our best earbuds buying guide, and you’ll find that many of my favorite picks are available at tempting prices.

Apple / Beats

The second-gen AirPods Pro improve upon Apple’s original pair with much better noise cancellation, sound quality, and onboard volume controls. The latest refresh also ships with a USB-C charging case, as opposed to Lightning. Read our review.

The Beats Studio Pro noise-canceling headphones are matching their Black Friday price of $169.99 (a pretty massive $180 off) at both Amazon and Best Buy. If you don’t mind a slightly dated design, they’re a very cost-effective way into some solid ANC headphones that work great on both iOS and Android ecosystems, and they also feature a very good transparency mode.

The Beats Fit Pro earbuds have integrated wing tips that help keep them secure during runs and workouts. They also have excellent noise cancellation, and their sound has just the right amount of bass and kick to keep you motivated. Read our review.

With lossless USB-C audio, 50-hour battery life, Find My, spatial audio, and more comfy ear cups, the Beats Solo 4 gained significant quality-of-life improvements over their eight-year-old predecessors. They still deliver that bass-rich Beats sound, too. Read our review.

Sony

Sony’s flagship WF-1000XM5 noise-canceling earbuds improve upon the previous model with richer sound quality, slightly more powerful ANC, and vastly improved comfort thanks to their reduced size and weight. Read our review.

With improved comfort, refined sound, and even better active noise cancellation, Sony’s WH-1000XM5 offer a compelling mix of features for the price. Read our review.

Bose

With dynamic, rich sound and the best noise cancellation available in true wireless earbuds, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are a terrific pick if you want to listen to your music in peace. Read our review.

Bose’s latest flagship headphones are a replacement for the Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 that offer a more travel-friendly design, spatial audio, better call quality, excellent comfort, and some of the best noise cancellation around. Read our review.

Samsung

Samsung’s premium Galaxy Buds 3 Pro sport the same stem-based design and pinch gestures as the standard Galaxy Buds 3, only they deliver better sound, improved ANC, and an in-ear fit with silicone tips.

Amazon is selling Jabra’s semi-open Elite 10 Gen 2 earbuds for a new low of $199.99 ($80 off). Jabra may be exiting the consumer earbud space, but this swan song is one of its most advanced. They pack noise cancellation, physical buttons, and multipoint, but their real selling point is the included LE Audio charging case, which lets you wirelessly transmit audio from an external device.

Sennheiser’s Momentum Sport earbuds mix good sound quality and noise cancellation with fitness tracking thanks to an integrated heart rate sensor. They can free up your wrists from fitness band duty while exercising, which is especially helpful for those with tattoos that block the optical sensors of a wearable.
