Prime Day earbud deals
The AirPods Pro 2 are a fan favorite, for good reason. They sport sound quality, with noise canceling, adaptive transparency mode and spatial audio, all powered by Apple’s H2 chip.

These might not be the latest model, but the second-gen AirPods are still a great way to listen to music, podcasts and audiobooks, and right now they’re yours for just $69.

Prime Day headphone deals
Beats Solo4 wireless headphones are popular, with impressive battery life at 40 hours on a full charge. They’re also easy to use, with remote control built into the right ear cup. They’re geared toward both Apple and Android users using a custom Beats chip rather than an H1 or H2 Apple chip. They utilize Bluetooth 5.3.

Sony’s flagship headphones — and some of our favorite ANC cans — are down to a new all-time low price for Prime members with $100 off. With industry-leading noise cancellation, best-in-class voice call quality and a comfortable fit, these are a solid pickup on Prime Day.
Details
Apple AirPods Max are usually more expensive, but now you can save over $150 on these cream-of-the-crop headphones. Best paired with an Apple device because of the spatial audio virtual surround for iPhones and iPads and multipoint Bluetooth, allowing you to automatically switch between iOS devices.

Prime Day workout headphone deals
A decent price on our favorite bone-conduction headphones for running. Our testing found them to be lightweight and sound great, while still leaving your ears free to hear the outside world.

Is Prime Day the best time to buy headphones?
Yes, some of the best deals on headphones happen during the Prime Day event. Many of these items are at their all-time lowest prices and could go quickly. If you see a deal you’re considering, we recommend grabbing it before stock vanishes or the time runs out.
Do headphone deals linger after Prime Day?
The short answer? Sometimes. Prices often fluctuate throughout the whole Prime Day event, so it’s worth taking the plunge if you see a deal that suits you and your wallet. We’ll be updating this post regularly to make sure you’re seeing the latest price changes too.
How we choose the best Prime Day headphone deals
Many of us here at CNET have covered shopping events for over five years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless other shopping events. In that time, we’ve learned how to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we surface only the best offers from trusted retailers. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing headphone deals to show you.
- Real discounts mean genuine savings. We check pricing history for products listed as on sale, so we know when it’s a case of an inflated list price rather than an actual discount.
- Quality reviews and testing are super important for any product. A discount isn’t worthwhile if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you saved.
- Remaining sale time is important, too. Some deals are around for only a short time or may be limited in supply. If that’s the case, we’ll let you know upfront so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
