Black Friday is just around the corner, but retailers aren’t waiting to bring headphones down to record-low prices.

The start of Best Buy’s Black Friday sale has brought the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones down to one of the lowest prices we’ve ever seen them at $199.99. Though the Bose QuietComfort line is no longer on sale for the time being, you can still find headphones from Jabra, Bowers & Wilkins, Beats, and Samsung on sale.

Best headphones deal ahead of Black Friday

Why we like it

While these headphones hit the market back in 2020, they’re still a decent option to pick up, especially if you’re looking to spend no more than $200. While they do go on sale throughout the year, they typically drop about $100, making this nearly $150 especially good. Because they’re older, they no longer have top of the line noise-cancelling or sound quality, but they still more than get the job done. Plus, unlike the newer Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones, the XM4 ear cups fold in, potentially making them a better option for folks who travel frequently.

Why we like it

Our top pick for the best noise-cancelling earbuds for working out have dropped down to a record low price ahead of Black Friday. While testing the best noise-cancelling headphones on the market, Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino found that these offered the most secure fit, plus the most durability, with a water and dust resistance IP68-rating. The touch controls have a button, making it easier to avoid accidentally skipping a song or ending a call, and they connect as easily as a pair of AirPods. The ANC and sound quality isn’t top of the line, but if those aren’t your top priorities, this is a great deal to take advantage of.

Best speaker deal ahead of Black Friday

Why we picked this

The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 is our favorite speaker under $100 at full price, so we think this deal is especially worth it. Despite its relatively compact size, this speaker reaches impressive volumes, can be taken pretty much anywhere you want to go thanks to its IP67 waterproof rating, and has 14 hours of battery life. That said, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen this speaker drop down in price. Even shortly after its release this past June, it dropped down to $79.99 — but a couple weeks ahead of Black Friday, you have your pick from the four available color options.
