We’re closing in on December which means the holidays are right around the corner. Heck, some radio stations and storefronts are well into the holiday cheer already. Now’s a great time to start working on your gift shopping for all your friends, family, and loved ones. Get it done early so you can actually enjoy the season.
Even though we’re not at Black Friday just yet, deals have already started pouring in to save big on some home goods and electronics. Take for instance Sony’s premiere noise-canceling headphones — the WH-1000XM5. These are available in a range of sleek colors and are discounted up to 26% off. Normally, they each go for $400, but right now the midnight blue and smokey pink are both down to $330. The classic black is another $2 off at just $328, while the silver headphones are down all the way to $297.
You’ve got to hand it to Sony’s name choice with its flagship set of headphones. Apple’s over-the-ear headphones are appropriately called the AirPods Max. You have Samsung’s line of earbuds expectedly named the Galaxy Buds. Then you have Sony with the WH-1000XM5 noise-canceling headphones. They spit in the face of marketing fluff because they know the product speaks for itself.
The WH-1000XM5 are lightweight and made of a soft fit synthetic leather that feel comfortable to wear all day long. And you can wear them all day long with its impressive 30 hour battery life. If you ever find yourself having forgotten to charge them, you’re not out of luck. The headphones will provide a full three hours of playback time after just a three minute charge. Just plug them in as your about to head out the door for a bit and you’ll still be able to use them for a good chunk of your trip.
Hear Only What You Want to Hear
No over-the-ear headphones worth their salt would be anything without noise cancelation. Powered by two processors and eight microphones, the WH-1000XM5 are able to reverse the soundwaves coming from exterior noise in your surrounding so they cancel each other out. What your left with in your ear is the soundwaves produced by your favorite music or the podcast you’ve queued up.
Take calls hands-free. The built-in microphones are able to isolate your voice even in noisy environments so you come across crystal clear to everyone else on the call.
Right now, the Sony WH-1000XM5 are going for as a much as 26% off — amounting to a savings of over $100. Get the midnight blue or smokey pink for $330, the black for $328, or the silver for just $297.
