They're back to their
Prime Day and all-time low pricing of $348, or $52 less than their retail price. We gave the headphones a score of 95 in
our review and praised Sony for giving their exterior a big redesign that massively increased their comfort. </p><a class="athena-button rapid-with-clickid" href="

Everything seemed more immersive as a result. The company has doubled the number of processors and the number of microphones for noise canceling, as well, making the model better at blocking higher frequency sounds, such as voices. </p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>If you're looking for something a little more affordable, Sony's previous flagship headphones are also on sale for $228. That's how much the
WH-1000XM4 went for during Amazon's Prime Day sale in July, and that represents 35 percent or $122 in savings. While we believe the WH-1000XM5 are the best headphones you can get at the moment, the WH-1000XM4 were our top pick before their successor came out. We
praised them for having powerful ANC, immersive sound, automatic pausing when you speak and multi-device connectivity. </p><p>Sony's <a data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:" href="

They're down to a new low of $178 or 36 percent lower than their retail price. The earbuds come with Sony's Noise Isolation Earbud Tips made of spongy foam instead of silicone, which never felt quite comfortable for us. That said,
we found the earbuds to have great sound clarity and praised them for having wireless charging and support for high-res audio. </p><p>Outside of Sony's high-end models, Amazon is also selling Sony's <a data-i13n="elm:affiliate_link;sellerN:Amazon;elmt:" href="
