The best sub-$100 earbuds and headphones gifts

Earfun Air Pro 3: was $99 now $55.99 at Amazon
Excellent 4.5-star review? Check. Noise cancellation? Oh yes. Whacking great saving? Also yes – it's 44% off their MSRP. You have to be an Amazon Prime member to get this deal, (30-day free trials are available) but if you're prepared to sign up this gifting season, this is a top deal on some great earbuds containing hi-res audio codec support and tech to future-proof your listening for quite some time – as you can read about in our Earfun Air Pro 3 review.

Audio-Technica ATH-SQ1TW: was $79, now $59.99 at Amazon
As long as the white colorway suits (and it's kinda festive, no? Although I love the blueberry hue pictured) this is a lovely little cubist, stylish, and musically gifted proposition. As I wrote in my five-star Audio-Technica ATH-SQ1TW review, these little December 2021-issue 'buds are so chic and good at the basics across the board, I found myself double-taking at that affordable price tag – which of course is much cheaper than $79 right now.
