Sony’s acclaimed WH-1000XM5 headphones, renowned for their industry-leading noise cancellation and exceptional sound quality, are currently available at a significant discount just ahead of Labor Day. The flagship model, which had previously topped lists of the best wireless and noise-canceling headphones, is now offered at only $274—down 32% from its regular retail price of $400. This deal makes one of the most popular premium headphones more accessible to a wider audience.

In our recent review, the WH-1000XM5 received an impressive score of 95 out of 100, praised for its comfort, sound clarity, and advanced active noise-canceling capabilities. Equipped with 30mm carbon-fiber drivers and eight microphones for superior noise reduction, these headphones deliver a rich, immersive audio experience. The design features a slim, cushioned headband and soft earcups, ensuring hours of comfortable listening without pressure on the ears or head.

Battery life remains a standout feature, offering up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, with quick-touch controls conveniently located on the right earcup for easy playback management. While the WH-1000XM5 remains a top-tier choice, it is worth noting that the newer XM6 model introduces several improvements, though at a higher price point.

This limited-time sale applies exclusively to the black model, with other colors available at 18% off, priced around $328. For those seeking high-quality wireless headphones at a more affordable price, this deal provides a compelling opportunity to upgrade or invest in a premium listening experience.
