Nothing Ear (a) earbuds crash to their cheapest price in my top bargain of Prime Day – quick!
And I won't hear anything different (mostly because I'll have these in my ears)

Even at $109 / £99, I already knew the Nothing Ear (a) earbuds were a five-star product; if you've read even a fraction of my content over the past 18 months (reviewing headphones and earbuds is literally my job), you'll know that.
And this Prime Day deal – happily available in both the US and the UK – makes them even better, because right now they're just $69 in the US (regularly $109), or £65.55 in the UK (RRP £99), both at Amazon. Hurry though, the sales event ends today…

And the good news keeps on coming, because unusually, the deal applies to the black, white and even my favorite yellow finishes – hurrah!
Why buy them? Because despite the arrival of the newer Nothing Ear (3), these much cheaper earbuds are still sitting pretty at the very top of my best budget earbuds guide – but you can always read my full Nothing Ear (a) review for my more comprehensive verdict.
Not quite the earbuds deal you're after? I've got a wider Prime Day cheap earbuds roundup for you. Not looking for earbuds? That's totally fine, our Amazon Prime Day hub will have deals for you.

Today's best Nothing Ear (a) Prime Day deal
In my five-star Nothing Ear (a) review, I lauded these buds for their zealous, expansive sound, brilliant ANC, LDAC support, and highly compact design. It's hard to believe that these are on sale for less than $70 this Prime Day, despite the fact that Nothing's Ear (3) are now here and of course newer. My advice? I love these cheap earbuds.
Again, my five-star Nothing Ear (a) review is the place for the full scoop on the fun, energetic sound of these buds. On top of that, they have great ANC, a compact design, and an eye-catching look. Yes, they've been superseded by the newer Ear (3), but for me the smart money stays here (did I mention there's LDAC support?). Thanks to this October Prime Day deal, you can grab these buds for less than £66 (i.e. the lowest they've ever been), so don't miss out!
If you're not familiar with the Ear (a) or just can't make sense of Nothing's confusing branding and naming, the Ear (a) are a more affordable version of the firm's impressive Nothing Ear wireless earbuds (which launched at the same time, in summer 2024) and have recently been superseded by the still-great-but-much-more-expensive Nothing Ear (3).
Those new flagship buds are good, don't get me wrong, but I still think the Ear (a) are the better buy: I gave Ear (3) four stars under intense review and gave the Ear (a) buds the full five stars to prove it.
While I'm here, if you want headphones in the Prime Day sales, today's your last day, so let me send you on to the best October Prime Day headphones deals roundup – once again curated by me.
Oh, and in case you feel like scrolling, you'll find a few of the best Prime Day earbuds deals I've seen below. Stick with me for all things audio, we got this!

These 2024-issue wireless earbuds were already excellent value, but at 41% off they're the definition of a steal. Not only do the Earfun Air 2 NC offer excellent audio quality, but they also have good ANC, which is virtually unheard of for this kind of money. If pushed, I'd still nudge you towards the Pro 4 above, but if this is as far as your budget goes, I'd still recommend these – and our Earfun Air 2 NC review is the place to get all the information on them (reminder though: you don't have a lot of time).
These earbuds are an update on the class-leading (but older) Earfun Air Pro 3, and honestly, you won't find this kind of higher-resolution Bluetooth codec support elsewhere for this money – to clarify, they support both Sony's proprietary LDAC and Qualcomm's aptX Lossless. This 30% saving on earbuds that only arrived in February (see our full Earfun Air Pro 4 review for everything we loved and one or two things we didn't love) is absolutely worth it, if you need earbuds.
These are an excellent value pair of wireless buds, boasting full, detailed sound, great ANC, and crystal-clear calling. In our Sony WF-C710N review, we also loved their improved battery life and auto-off option, and at less than $80, we couldn't recommend them enough.

Yes, you can get Sony's newest affordable wireless earbuds for less than £80 in the October Prime Day sale – talk about a bargain! In my Sony WF-C710N review, I heaped praise on these buds for their bolstered battery life, fantastic sound quality, and upgraded ANC. At this price point, you'll struggle to find a model that's much better.
