Amazon is now offering the wonderful Sony XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling Over-Ear Headphones for $298 shipped. Regularly $400, this is over $100 off and the lowest price we can find on some of the best noise cancelling headphones you’ll find anywhere. Amazon now has all four colors marked down to the early Black Friday price – this is matching the best deals we saw during the fall Prime Day event and $2 under our previous mention. Best Buy has them in its now live Black Friday Doorbuster sale, but at a slightly higher $300.
As we have mentioned in the past, the Sony XM5 cans go toe-to-toe with the best in the business, including Apple’s AirPods Max ($549) and the latest Bose Ultra set (now $100 off at $329 shipped). Many folks wouldn’t trade the the audio and noise cancellation quality on Sony’s over-ears for anything, and in my experience, I might not either.
Sony’s XM5s wrap around your head with up to 30 hours of wireless battery life on a single charge – an additional 3 hours of playback is at the ready after just 3 minutes of quick charging too – are a notable option for both Android and iOS users. You’ll also find Sony’s Speak-to-Chat tech here that can automatically mute your audio to let the outside world in when you start talking, alongside Precise Voice Pickup Technology with “advanced audio signal processing” to help ensure your call utility remains clear “even when you are in noisy situations.” The the collapsible, travel-friendly hinge is a nice touch as well.
Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Canceling Headphones feature:
The WH-1000XM5 headphones rewrite the rules for distraction-free listening. Two processors control 8 microphones for unprecedented noise canceling and exceptional call quality. From airplane noise to people’s voices, our WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones with multiple microphone noise canceling keep out more high and mid frequency sounds than ever. The light and rigid precision-engineered driver unit improves high frequency sensitivity for more natural sound quality. With Precise Voice Pickup Technology and advanced audio signal processing, the person on the other end of the call will hear your voice clearly, even when you are in noisy situations.
