5 Best Early Prime Day Deals on Bluetooth Headphones

Amazon’s Prime Day sales arrive in full until next week, October 7–8, though as per usual, the early deals are already delivering some sweet, sweet sounds (and delicious deals) for music listeners. If you’re looking to upgrade to take advantage of Spotify’s new lossless audio, or otherwise seeking a more affordable option to wear at the gym, now might be the time to pounce.

We’ve dug into what’s on offer and curated a range of Bluetooth headphones (plus a portable speaker) that offer a nice blend of high fidelity and value. So get ready to crank up the volume without breaking the bank! Dive into these discounts and find the perfect pair before the Prime Day frenzy begins.

Sony WH-1000XM4 Wireless Premium Noise Canceling Overhead Headphones

This year, Sony released the latest model in its Bluetooth WH-1000XM series, the WH-1000XM6, though its hefty $450 price tag might be a tough pill for some to swallow. In that case, we recommend taking a look at the earlier WH-1000XM4 model, which is currently available for about half the price of the latest model, at $228 (a 34% discount from its regular price).

“Sony has been making noise-canceling headphones for years, and it’s gotten pretty good at it,” says Android Police. “They still sound phenomenal, but Sony added wear detection, some new Bluetooth tricks, and made the noise cancellation even more effective… The WH-1000XM4s are fantastic headphones.”

Apple AirPods Pro 2 Wireless Earbuds

Another savvy choice for those seeking a high-fidelity option at a lower price. Just last month, Apple announced its new AirPods Pro 3 model, now on sale and retailing for $249. So, it’s a good time for Apple enthusiasts to take a look at the previous AirPods Pro 2 model, which has just dropped in price to $199. The buds remain an exceptional choice for Apple users.

Our friends at How-To Geek recently tried the AirPods Pro 2 and were blown away by the difference. The upgraded noise-canceling, from Apple’s original model, is a huge deal.

“Upon enabling ANC, all the background noise in my environment absolutely vanished. It was more silence than I’d experienced in a long time, and I live in the countryside… Well, now I’ve experienced it for myself, I’m struggling to go back.”

Beats Studio Pro Wireless Bluetooth Noise-Canceling Headphones

One more option for audiophiles seeking a bargain. The Beats Studio Pro, now available for $199 (43% off from its usual price of $350), definitely represents an early Prime Day deal that is worth considering. Boasting bass-heavy sound with robust ANC, 40 hours of battery life, and a foldable design that is perfect for workouts or travel—importantly, you get a nice, deep discount.

“The Beats Studio Pro headphones are a nip-and-tuck update to the previous Studio 3 model,” proclaim our friends at How-to Geek. “The USB-C charging port for power and lossless listening and better ANC performance provide at least several more years of runway of relevancy.”

JBL Tune 510BT Bluetooth Headphones

Here’s one for listeners looking for something affordable and functional. The JBL Tune 510BT Bluetooth Headphones are a budget gem for casual listeners, boasting a 40-hour battery life, a microphone for calls, and a comfy fit. There might be no ANC, but it packs punchy sound at an unbeatable entry price.

You just can’t beat $29.95 for these babies, a 40% discount from their usual (and already quite affordable) price of $49.95.

Amazon Echo Pop

Here’s an option if you’re looking for a versatile portable speaker for listening to tunes around the house or at your next social get-together. Amazon sales always represent a great time to pick up a sweet, sweet deal on Amazon’s own brands, and the most recent model of the Amazon Echo Pop is currently on sale for $24.99, 38% off from its normal price of $39.99.

“If you’re just looking to kit out a few extra rooms in your house with Alexa access points that occasionally serve passable audio, then the Echo Pop will do fine,” says Android Police.
