It’s hard to say: Cyber Monday is over — but these deals are still available! They’re also the lowest prices we’ve seen on Cyber Monday deals. Why you should listen to my hearing advice I’m TechRadar’s audio editor and in-house music expert. I track headphone prices year-round, so I know when we’ll see prices return to rock bottoms (or even drop to new lows). I’ve removed any deals that are no longer active or have been inactive since Cyber Monday. I’m giving you full transparency because time is of the essence here.
I just want you to get the lowest price on headphones I’ve ever tested. You won’t find anything on this page that I wouldn’t personally buy.
But I’m not sugarcoating anything: the new low price of $154 for the AirPods Pro 2 at Walmart in the US has finally disappeared and is officially no longer valid… but oddly enough, in the UK the lowest price for the AirPods Pro 2 is still valid and is £179 (originally £229).
Sony’s WF-1000XM5 earbuds are still at their lowest price on Amazon UK at £175, while Bose fans won’t be disappointed with the Bose Ultra Earbuds, which are on sale for $229 on Amazon US and £199 on Amazon UK.
I’ll update this page as often as I can – we have to accept that this will end at some point – but for now I want you to take advantage of these offers. What am I suggesting? Don’t wait now.
Apple’s new AirPods 4 earbuds have been a hit this year, and you can still get the first discount on them on Amazon. AirPods 4 feature an all-new design for all-day comfort and the Apple H2 chip for personalized spatial audio and voice isolation. You also get a redesigned case, 30 hours of battery life, and USB-C wireless charging support. You can also get AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation for $164 (originally $179).
★★★★½ rating! Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are back at their lowest price ever — hooray! Headlining the Bose QuietComfort headphones, which are set to launch in September 2023, are new immersive audio features (for different spatial audio profiles with head tracking) and Snapdragon Sound certification, the latest standard for Bluetooth connectivity. In short, these are the most advanced Bose noise-canceling headphones you can buy, as long as you can live with the lack of multipoint connectivity or wireless charging (you’ll have to buy a case for that).
When I tell people I’m TechRadar’s audio editor, what’s the question they ask most often? Simple: what are the best noise-cancelling headphones under $200? The answer is: right now, you’re looking at them. These are currently the only headphones that offer multipoint connectivity for up to three devices, but that’s just the beginning (see our Technics EAH-AZ80 review for more). The discounts are some of the lowest we’ve ever seen, too: They were $230 during a recent sale, but that’s the lowest price ever. Buying a gift for an audiophile? These come highly recommended.
★★★★½ rating! If someone asks me for really cheap earbuds coming out in 2024 and doesn’t care about active noise cancellation, the Sony WF-C510s are usually my first choice. They’re lightweight and comfortable, offer great sound quality for the price, and last up to 20 hours on a single charge. In our Sony WF-C510 review, we called them “excellent value for money.” That’s their lowest price ever — a great deal.
This is the lowest price for premium Sony headphones. The earbuds fit small ears well, the sound quality is very good, and the controls are very good for Sony headphones (see our Sony WF-1000XM5 review for more details). The noise cancellation isn’t as good as the similarly priced Bose Ultra headphones, but for Sony fans, these are easily the best headphones for the money and the best you can buy.
★★★★½ rating! A quick glance at my JBL Live Beam 3 review shows how much I love these earbuds, which won’t be hitting shelves until June 2024. The smart case now comes with a lock screen wallpaper feature, should you want to personalize it with a photo of your significant other, your cat, or anything else that means something to you. For me, the sound effects, “Personi-Fi” listening test, and excellent durability make this a great option, and at 25% off, they’re the cheapest we’ve ever seen. Plus, the deal applies to all colors (yay!)
To say these headphones are feature-packed would be an understatement; they really are the best JBL has to offer in terms of headphone design. And they don’t ship until August 2024, so the 17% discount is a surprise! Do we like them? We do – read more in my JBL Tour Pro 3 review. My only real gripe is that many of the features that make them so special (the case, the sound quality, the Personi-Fi sound tuning) are available for much less in the similarly stripped-down JBL Live Beam 3 model pictured above…
★★★★★ Rating! I really like this cool pair of headphones released in 2021 and my 5 star review proves it. You see, they are no longer updated and you don’t get app support or ANC. But the sound quality is great and the design is very beautiful. The prices are low although they have previously dropped to $5 below.
Sony’s flagship wireless ANC earbuds are now £9 cheaper than before with a new discount (until November 28). Built-in Alexa makes them a joy to use, and they’re great for little ears. The AI-powered noise-cancelling algorithms and bone conduction sensors might not block out noise as well as the best in the business (see our Sony WF-1000XM5 review for details), but they still deliver excellent results.
There’s a reason the AirPods Pro 2 are the best-selling headphones in the world, and they’re the cheapest flagship Apple headphones ever to go on sale (the price is down to £159 for Costco members only). What do you get? Superb sound quality, top-notch noise cancellation, great spatial audio, automatic switching between different Apple devices, gesture control and more.
★★★★★ Rating! With great bass and powerful active noise cancellation, the newest Nothing Ear (a) wireless earbuds are a solid performer. Their superb 11mm drivers are larger than normal, offer 42.5 hours of battery life with the charging case, multi-point connectivity, and even ChatGPT support via a pinch button if you’re using a Nothing phone. They’ve been slashed to £67, but that’s the cheapest we’ve seen them at, and they’re worth the money.
★★★★½ rating! The Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are now also on sale for Cyber Monday in the UK. The highlight here is Bose’s new signature immersive audio feature, which delivers spatial audio with head tracking on any Snapdragon Sound-certified device. In short, these are the most advanced Bose noise-cancelling headphones you can buy, and right now they’re on sale for their lowest price, no matter which colour you prefer.
★★★★½ rating! If you value sound quality, there’s no better budget earbuds for the money than these at the moment, and they’ve recently dropped another £2, a new all-time low. If you can live with the lack of noise cancellation, you’ll appreciate the detailed sound quality of these earbuds, which use Sony’s DSEE technology to improve the quality of your Spotify music streaming. We called them ‘superb value for money’ in our Sony WF-C510 review. That discount also puts them 22% off right now – a huge saving on an already affordable pair of earbuds.
What are the best noise-cancelling headphones under £200? The answer: starting today, you’ll be watching. The EAH-AZ80 are currently the only headphones to offer multipoint connectivity for up to three devices, but that’s just the beginning (read our Technics EAH-AZ80 review for more). This Cyber Monday discount is also the lowest I’ve seen (at one point it was £197.99). Buying a gift for an audiophile? I recommend them without hesitation.
★★★★½ rating! A quick glance at my JBL Live Beam 3 review shows just how much I love these headphones, which won’t be hitting shelves until June 2024. Amazon lists the latest price at £171.99, but I’ve included the original RRP here so you can see how big the saving is. This adorable smart case now comes with a lock screen wallpaper feature, should you want to personalise it with a photo of your other half, cat or anything else that means something to you. For me, the sound quality, ‘Personi-Fi’ listening test and excellent stamina make these headphones a great buy, and with a £30 discount they’re the cheapest we’ve seen.
★★★★★ Rating! When the WF-C700N was released in April 2023, it completely changed my perception of what entry-level products were capable of. For me, the Nothing Ear (a) is better at this price point (especially since they are cheaper), but if you prefer the Sony style, these are the earbuds for you. My Sony WF-C700N review describes their extremely high sound quality and impressive additional features, including good noise cancellation.
★★★★½ rating! These talented headphones, released in March 2024, are currently on sale for a whopping £50 off (£20 off their lowest price to date), so you can save 30% on the RRP. I’ve reviewed them myself (read my Cambridge Audio Melomania M100 review) and in terms of sound and noise cancellation, they’re a steal for that new, rock-bottom price. You won’t get spatial audio, but you’ll get the best sound quality and ANC money can buy.
A saving of £30 (a 23% discount and the lowest price ever – albeit only 58p cheaper) is a bargain on Nothing’s flagship headphones. Here, you can personalise your listening experience using Nothing’s excellent Sound Personalisation mode, which is so good our reviewer wrote an article about how it changed his perception of the headphones. That price also means you’re getting flagship goodies (including great apps, robust noise cancellation and the ability to switch from Nothing Phone to Chat GPT with a single tap) for under £100. That’s exceptional for us.
Until these earbuds debut in late 2023, their lowest price on Amazon is £149, a saving of £20 compared to what we’ve seen. For us, the active noise cancellation is fantastic, and while the sound quality isn’t top-notch (read our full FreeBuds Pro 3 review), the simple on-ear controls and comfortable fit make these earbuds a tempting choice at such a big discount. If you want quiet and have an Android device, these are a good choice.
Since becoming a tech journalist, I’ve reviewed over 150 audio products, from ultra-cheap headphones to high-end Hi-Res Audio music players. Before joining TechRadar, I spent three years at What Hi-Fi?, testing everything the audio world had to offer; before that, I was a professional dancer. This is my fifth headphone review on Cyber Monday, so based on past experience and my knowledge of headphones themselves, I know which ones are truly great.
Welcome to our Cyber Monday headphone coverage! On this page, I only pick the options that are best for your ears, so keep an eye out for the best deals throughout the day, as well as general headphone buying tips and advice.
Let’s get this show started! You may have heard that, sadly, the new low price of $154 for the AirPods Pro 2 on Amazon in the US has disappeared with Black Friday, and they’re officially no longer available… but guess what? If you go directly to Walmart, it will still work! That’s right: you can still buy AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C charging for $154 (originally $249) at Walmart. (You’ve been there, haven’t you? Sorry. It’s all that caffeine…) My friends in the UK also know that the lowest price on Amazon is £179 (originally £229).
Want more Cyber Monday AirPods deals? Oh, and I’ve rounded up the best Cyber Monday AirPods deals for you, but I think the only deals you need are listed below…
AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C: was $249 at Walmart, now $154 AirPods Pro with USB-C: was £229 at Amazon, now £179
Hey all you deal shoppers out there! My name is Becky Scarrott (yes, I’m working Cyber Monday, so pick your hours) and I just wanted to let you know that I’ve taken down and updated those deals and the good news is they’re still available! We’re cooking with gas!
Want to get $5 off AirPods? I’ve got you covered. They didn’t make much of a splash yesterday, so I’m giving them the attention they deserve. In the US (sorry, I’m still trying to find you in the UK), AirPods 4 with ANC are now just $164.99 (originally $179, $169 on Black Friday).
Wouldn’t you love it if Black Friday rolled into Cyber Monday and the deals you had your eye on were still up for grabs? Well, this is definitely a killer deal. This great pair of flagship headphones are still on sale for their lowest Black Friday price ever. You get multi-point connectivity, so if you take a call on your phone you don’t have to reconnect your laptop, but instead you can connect to three devices with the EAH-AZ80 instead of two. It might seem like a small benefit, but it’s not – I promise. The fit is great and the sound quality is great. It’s been a year since they launched, but I’m still a big fan, but if you’re looking for more information, our Technics EAH-AZ80 review is the one to go for. They’re still not cheap, which I appreciate, but if you’re looking for a truly top-notch pair of flagship headphones, the Technics EAH-AZ80 are worth checking out.
Marathon runner? I’ve got the perfect Cyber Monday deals for you, including some of the best fitness headphones and the best bone conduction headphones you can buy during this year’s Cyber Monday sales.
For long-distance use, we recommend the Shokz OpenRun bone conduction headphones (long battery life; good sound quality). For regular workouts, we recommend the Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2: sweat-resistant headphones with active noise cancellation and HearThrough. Oh, and they’re both on sale in both the US and UK!
Shokz OpenRun Bone Conduction Headphones: Originally $179.95, now $129.95 Shokz OpenRun Bone Conduction Headphones: Originally £159.95, now £109.95
Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2: was $229.99 now $169.99 Jabra Elite 8 Active Gen 2: was £199.99 now £99.99
It’s time to give the Nothing Ear(a) its due on Cyber Monday, a fantastic pair of 2024 headphones that are surprisingly still 30% off during Amazon’s Cyber Monday sale. Make no mistake, these are the best ANC headphones you can buy at this price point.
That’s right, for just $69/£69 (down from $99/£99), you get warm, spacious sound, powerful noise cancellation, durability and an attractive compact design. They’ve earned a legendary five-star review on TechRadar, and I’ve called them “one of the best noise-cancelling headphones this year”. Sounds good, right? So be sure to grab them now at this super-low price while you can – you won’t regret it.
Now I’ve got two Cyber Monday deals for all you UK music lovers (I’ll take care of the US – don’t worry!): Jabra Elite 4 Active – if you have time during this crazy discount fest, read our full Jabra Elite 4 Active review.
Next up, the non-Active Elite 4, which we haven’t reviewed yet, but I’m mentioning because it’s currently very cheap at Argos. While the seller lists the lowest price they’ve seen recently at £49.99, I’ve included the recommended retail price for the sake of full transparency. For that price, you get active noise cancellation, 28 hours of battery life, IP55 water and dust resistance, and Bluetooth Multipoint for switching between devices at once. Pretty cool, huh?
I promise I’ll stop talking about deals on over-ear headphones (that’s not what you’re here for on Cyber Monday!) and get back to earbuds soon, but I can’t let these beautiful flagship headphones from Bowers & Wilkins go to waste. Not at this price.
If they’re good enough for 007, they’re good enough for me, especially at this price. These are the pinnacle of B&W’s headphone offerings, and frankly, they sound even better than the high-end build quality. They’re coming out in the second half of 2022, and you won’t find a better-looking (or better-sounding) headphone in all of Christendom. Price is often a sticking point, but are you tempted by such low prices? You won’t regret it when they arrive…
So, you want an inexpensive Secret Santa gift of headphones, but don’t think they’re worth the money? I’ve got your back.
In the US, I’d recommend getting the Sony WF-C510. They’re a fantastic pair of earbuds for a ridiculously low price. Okay, so you don’t get ANC, but other than that, I have nothing bad to say. They’re lightweight and comfortable, offer great sound quality for the price, and last up to 20 hours on a single charge. We rated them highly in our Sony WF-C510 review, calling them “excellent value for the money” — and that’s their full MSRP!
Sony has another product in the UK, the WF-C700N. They’re a little older, but they do have ANC. I’ve reviewed them myself and can honestly say they’ve completely changed my mind about what entry-level products might be like in April 2023. Well, the Nothing Ear(a) might be a little better, but they’re also a little more expensive (and hey, at budget level, a few quid can make a big difference)! My Sony WF-C700N review is the place to find out more, but for now, Sony may have just given someone a secret Christmas present.
US Pick: Sony WF-C510 – was $59.99 on Amazon, now $48 UK Pick: Sony WF-C700N – was £99 on Amazon, now £62.10
I know, I know, Scarrott, you’d be better off with over-ear headphones, but damn, I love these — especially when they’re still on sale this weekend. These are two generations of wireless, planar magnetic over-ear headphones. If I had to choose, I’d go with the older Stax Spirit S3s over the July 2024 Stax Spirit S5s — they’re a bit lighter, and I like the way they look. Sound-wise, though, they’re hard to beat, as both deliver excellent wireless audio. Need more info? I have quite a few, and the S3s are another pair of headphones I write love letters to (if you followed my updates last Cyber Monday and Black Friday, you’ll know I do that quite often).
But stop fooling around! The discounts are what you need. This is Cyber Monday, not my ode to headphones…
Did you know you don’t have to buy AirPods to get headphones that work great with your iPhone? Check out Apple’s Beats sub-brand — and the best part is, there’s still a small discount on the Beats Solo Buds on Cyber Monday. These are Beats’ newest, smallest, and lightest headphones, and they offer up to 18 hours of battery life on a single charge. Sure, you’ll have to give up features like noise cancellation or the extra charging case, but they might be just what you’re looking for — especially at this price. (Check out our Beats Solo Buds review for more details.)
