Sony’s noise-canceling XM5s have dropped to one of their best prices yet

It can be hard to get some peace and quiet even on an average day, but with the holidays slowly yet steadily approaching, it’s about to become impossible. Luckily, though, today, Sony’s WH-1000XM5s have dropped to one of their best prices yet, selling for $299.99 ($100 off) at Amazon, Target, and directly from Sony in almost every colorway. That’s about $5 shy of their 2024 all-time low and $50 shy of their best price ever.

When it comes to noise-canceling headphones, few can rival Sony’s WH-1000XM5s, which is why they’re our favorite pair on the market. Along with canceling out noise impressively, they deliver clear, detail-rich sound with support for LDAC, Sony’s codec for higher-quality wireless audio. The over-ears also have a number of other features going for them, including stellar voice call performance and now even compatibility with Google’s Find My Device network. They also boast multipoint Bluetooth support, so you can, say, connect them to your phone while working on your laptop without manually switching back and forth. Plus, they’re just plain comfortable, so you can tune out the world for hours on end.
