Updated 6 am ET, June 24: We've added the Apple AirPods Max 2 and Bose Ultra Open Earbuds.
It will be a while before you see Sony’s shiny new $650 1000X The Collexion discounted, but don’t worry, because the on-sale Sony WH-1000XM6 remain one of the finest noise-canceling headphones ever. They’re our favorite headphones for blocking out even the most disruptive background noise, while also offering superb audio performance no matter which genre of music you’re listening to.
A cheaper, poppier follow-up to Nothing’s superb Headphone (1), these stylish noise-canceling headphones look great and boast a full-bodied sound profile that’s perfect for pop and electronic music. There’s a slick app for adjusting sound profiles, battery life can hit 135 hours with ANC off, and there’s even USB-C audio cable included for hi-res listening.
With the same gorgeous, comfortable, iconic design as its predecessor, Apple’s AirPods Max 2 bring improved noise canceling and Bluetooth connectivity. Apple also upgraded software features, like gesture controls and Adaptive Audio. They’re a bit pricey at the RRP, but this discount is decent for Apple fans.
It’s a testament to the quality of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra that they remain one of the best buys despite being over two years old. They’re supremely comfortable and have impressive spatialized audio, and because they’re Bose, they come with sensationally good, customizable noise cancellation technology.
If you’re wedded to the Apple ecosystem and live for seamless integration and instant pairing, the AirPods Pro 3 are the best wireless earbuds for you, especially when they’re on sale. The latest generation has up to eight hours of battery, ANC is twice as good, and there’s also heart-rate sensing, workout tracking, and translation.
Better looking than the AirPods they’re aping, Nothing’s transparent little buds are a great buy, even at twice the price. The 11 millimeter dynamic drivers boast an open, natural midrange that’s impossible not to enjoy, while ANC delivers quiet better than most budget options. Sound quality won’t worry Sony or Bowers & Wilkins, but they’re a classy design with great fit, intuitive stem controls, app EQ, and fast pairing.
The most comfortable non-stem earbuds this reviewer has ever used, with a tiny case as pocketable as AirPods. Google updated the software back in 2025 to add adaptive audio, protection against loud noise, improved Gemini integration and head gesture control that’s not as silly as it sounds. A classy choice with the best integration for Android users.
