Noise-cancelling headphones deals: listen in peace without the high price tag
Don't miss these incredible ANC headphones deals
Noise-cancelling headphones are perfect for when you want to lose yourself in your music without any distractions – but they can be pricey. However, these Prime Day deals prove that you don't have to break the bank in your quest for audio nirvana when seeking out over-ear headphones.
Our top deal in the US is on the Sony WH-1000XM4 (AKA the best headphones you can buy today), which have been reduced from $348 to $248, saving you $100.
There are great deals in the UK, too, with the Sony WH-1000XM4 also being discounted to £240 – though you'll need to act fast, as Prime Day has officially ended in the UK, and these deals probably won't last long. (Not in the US or UK? Scroll down for noise-cancelling headphones deals in your region).
It's not just about over-ear headphones, either. There are plenty of fantastic deals on noise-cancelling wireless earbuds, from the Apple AirPods Pro to the Jabra Elite 85t, meaning there's a Prime Day headphones deal out there for everyone.
Today's best noise-cancelling headphones deals on Prime Day in the US
Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones: $348 $248 at Amazon
Save $100 – These wireless headphones deliver excellent noise-cancellation and surprisingly great sound quality all in a lightweight, comfortable design. We think they're amazing and they can proudly claim their place at the top of our best headphones of 2021 list.
AirPods Pro: $249 $189.99 at Amazon
Save $60 - We haven't seen the AirPods Pro drop down to this $189.99 position for a long time - they've been stuck at $199 for a few months now. However, you've got another chance to grab these premium ANC earbuds for an extra $10 off right now. Move fast, though, because these are likely to sell out.
AirPods Max: $549 $522.16 at Amazon
If you're after a pair of Apple's particularly expensive headphones, you'll find the AirPods Max in Green, Red, Pink, and Space Gray for $522. We saw the over-ear headphones drop to $499 earlier this week, so we recommend holding off to see if Amazon matches that all-time low price later on. If you're looking to save even more money, Walmart has the silver AirPods Max on sale for $519.
Echo Buds (2nd Gen): $119.99 $79.99 at Amazon
Save $40 - Amazon's Prime Day sale has the all-new Echo Buds on sale for $79.99. Amazon's wireless earbuds feature active noise cancellation and work with Alexa to stream music, make calls, get directions, and more.

Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro: $199.99 $169.99 at Amazon
Save $30 - The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro were only released earlier this year, and this $30 discount has been seen a handful of times since then. That means this $169.99 sales price is unlikely to be beaten in next week's Prime Day headphone deals, especially since these buds have never dipped below this position in their short time on the market so far.
Sony WH-XB900N headphones: $248 $118 at Amazon
Save $130 – These wireless headphones deliver overpowering bass and incorporate balanced mids and detailed highs.
