The Amazon Echo Buds are impressive. The sound quality is good and they have hands-free Alexa and Bose noise-reduction technology. More features include sweat resistance and a comfortable fit. They also work well for making calls.

The AirPods Pro 2 are a fan favorite, for good reason. It has solid sound quality, with noise cancelling, adaptive transparency mode and spatial audio. It is powered by Apple’s H2 chip. The battery life is fairly long as well of up to 6 hours. As an added bonus, there are also extra-small ear tips included.

They’re also easy to use as remote control built-in to the right ear cup that’s easy to operate by feel. They’re especially great if you’re pairing them with an Apple device because of the W1 chip.

Apple AirPods Max are usually more expensive, so this is a great deal. Some features worth calling out is adaptive noise canceling and transparency mode.

Prime Day sales are already rolling in. Check out this roundup of the best Prime Day deals going on right now.
When is Amazon Prime Day?
Historically, Prime Day has taken place in July, with other big sales happening in other months, and 2024 is no different. The official Prime Day deals begin on July 16 and continue through July 17. This year marks the 10th Prime Day, and we expect there to be sales on popular items and brands.
How we choose the best Prime Day headphone deals
Many of us here at CNET have covered shopping events for over five years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless other shopping events. In that time, we’ve learned how to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we surface only the best offers from trusted retailers. We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing headphone deals to show you.
- Real discounts mean genuine savings. We check pricing history for products listed as on sale, so we know when it’s a case of an inflated list price rather than an actual discount.
- Quality reviews and testing are super important for any product. A discount isn’t worthwhile if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you saved.
- Remaining sale time is important, too. Some deals are around for only a short time or may be limited in supply. If that’s the case, we’ll let you know up front so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
Is Prime Day the best time to buy headphones?
Yes, some of the best deals on headphones happen during the Prime Day event. Many of these items are at their all-time lowest prices and could go quickly. If you see a deal you’re considering, we recommend grabbing it before stock vanishes or the time runs out.
