There are already plenty of early Black Friday deals to check out, but if you’re looking for a great set of wireless headphones for yourself or a loved one, here are products that are definitely worth your attention. Sony’s WH-1000XM5 headphones are down to $298. That’s a discount of $102.
This isn’t the lowest price we’ve seen for over-ear XM5s. Earlier this year, it briefly fell to $280. But the headphones haven’t dropped that far since then, which is still great.

Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are $102 off on Black Friday. These are our picks for the best overall wireless headphones.

The XM5 is our pick for the best wireless headphones overall. We’ve been recommending Sony’s 1000X series for a long time, and this is the best yet. It received a score of 95 in our review.
The redesigned headphones are much more comfortable to wear for long periods of time than previous models. Sony has also improved its active noise cancellation (ANC) capabilities with the addition of a new chip and four microphones. We feel that the company’s current flagship headphones do a better job of blocking high frequencies and background noise (and even human voices) than the XM4.
XM5 can switch between noise modes depending on your location and activity, and can automatically pause audio when you start speaking. It offers better call quality than competing models, and generally has clear, crisp sound with punchy bass. The XM5 has a 30-hour battery life, so you won’t need to charge it often.
