The best Prime Day headphones deals:
Amazon's twelfth annual Prime Day sale is live now through June 26. There are dozens of genuinely good tech deals up for grabs this week (check out our running master list). But the headphones and earbuds deals are looking abnormally great, even for Prime Day.
Some standouts from the second day of the sale include record-low prices on the Apple AirPods Max 2, the Bose QuietComfort headphones, Sony's flagship XM6 earbuds and headphones, its last-gen XM5 headphones, and two of our favorite open earbuds. Soundcore also has a solid selection of Prime Day deals, with the budget-friendly Space One headphones and P30i earbuds both hitting new all-time lows for Prime members.
On this page, you can find all of the best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds. (Deals marked with a strikethrough weren't available at the time of writing, but could return later this week.) You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops.

Why we like it
In the face-off between the Sony XM5 vs XM6 headphones, most times I'd recommend the XM5s, especially if you don't care about folding ear cups. And while the XM5s are down to a new all-time low this Prime Day, so are the XM6s. Get the latest iteration of Sony's flagship headphones for just $378 and save $81.99.

Why we like it
The Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds are some of the best I've tried, but even at their sale price, they're a hefty investment. While the Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds don't quite match up in sound quality, they still have some of the best noise cancellation available, and are the most comfortable earbuds I've ever tried. For $249 (normally $299), or roughly $17 less, they're the deal to beat this Prime Day.

Why we like it
Bose was the near-undisputed champion of open earbuds with top-notch sound — that is, until the Sony LinkBuds Clip came along. In my head-to-head testing of the earbuds, I found that while the Bose Ultra Open buds can get louder (an important feature in open earbuds), the clarity and detail of the sound in the Sony buds surpassed that of the Bose. Even though their price discrepancy is only $20 this Prime Day, the sub-$200 price point on the Sony earbuds is hard to pass up.
