Best headphone deals for November 2025

Bowers & Wilkins' latest set of cans are the best we've seen so far, as demonstrated in our 5-star Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 headphones review. They've got some of the best sound we've ever heard for the price, and they're also some of the most comfortable headphones you can put on your head. 30 hours of battery makes sure they'll last a long time, and they've got a super sturdy protective case.

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones replace the Bose 700 as the new flagship model, and combine class-leading active noise canceling with intuitive features and universal spatial audio to deliver one of the most engaging, peaceful listening experiences money can buy. We rank them as the best noise-canceling headphones.

The Marshall Monitor III made our list of the best headphones because of their incredible battery life. These retro-looking headphones deliver up to 100 hours of battery life are great for listening on the go. They're also extremely comfy, and we really appreciate their intuitive physical controls.

Dali's IO-8 are some of the best wireless headphones we've ever tested — they're also incredibly expensive. But if you can afford them, they sound incredible and offer excellent comfort.

The Jlab Jbuds Lux ANC made our list of the best noise-canceling headphones as the best pair for under $100. You get great audio with Dolby Atmos and Spatial Audio support, up to 70 hours of battery life and strong active noise canceling capabilities to boot.

Our Sony WH-1000XM6 review said that while these headphones don’t reinvent the wheel, that’s no bad thing considering how excellent their predecessors are. Their excellent audio quality and active noise canceling continue to impress, and they now have improved clarity and codec support. You also get up to 30 hours of battery life with active noise canceling enabled, or up to 40 hours without.

We ranked the Focal Bathys as the best-sounding headphones we've tested, but they have been dethroned by the Dali IO-8. That doesn't mean the Bathys aren't still a great option. They're a bit cheaper, and you get a much better charging case in the box. Battery life is about the same, and the construction is similarly premium between the two. Buy these if you want excellent sound, but don't want to break the bank.

As we noted in our Bose QuietComfort Headphones review, these are "excellent always-on noise-cancelers with enhanced sound and battery life." They come with enhanced sound, more features, and the same celebrated noise cancelation as their QC45 predecessor.

The Sony WH-1000XM4 still stand up very well when compared to the newer versions of Sony's best active noise canceling headphones. They're comfortable, sound really good, and offer up a solid 30 hours of battery life. The ANC has stood the test of time as well, and blocks out plenty of noise. The touch controls are a bit oversensitive, but they work well enough. Flagship headphones at a budget price.

Our AirPods Pro 3 review said these are a big upgrade over the old model, with a new, more secure fit and 2 hours more battery life. The active noise canceling is some of the best around as well, all while being significantly cheaper than the competition.

The AirPods 4 also have USB-C charging and include up to 30 hours of listening time. In our AirPods 4 review, we said the Editor's Choice earbuds bring Apple's wireless earbuds lineup into the modern day with Pro-level features for less.

These AirPods 4 have all the same great features as the base AirPods 4, except they also include Active Noise Cancellation. They also feature Adaptive Audio, Transparency mode, and Voice Isolation.

The Sony WF-1000XM5 top our list of the best wireless earbuds on the market. In our Sony WF-1000XM5 Earbuds review, we said they have some of the strongest active noise canceling around, outstanding sound quality and a great companion app. Getting the best fit can be a bit hit and miss, but once achieved, the performance with LDAC sources is spectacular.

The Sony WF-C710N are our new choice for the best wireless earbuds under $150. They excelled in pretty much every category in our Sony WF-C710N review, delivering impressive sound, strong active noise canceling and amazing bass. Plus, their battery life lasts up to 33.5 hours with ANC off or up to 30 hours with ANC on. And their Glass Blue colorway looks amazing.

The EarFun Air Pro 4 earbuds boast five different effective ANC modes, gorgeous and well-balanced sound across genres, and they support advanced codecs for better audio quality.

Our Soundcore Liberty 4 NC review said these earbuds have "shockingly great sound." They also have effective active noise canceling on board, as well as Spatial Audio support and and EQ customization. We rank them as one of the best cheap wireless earbuds on the market.

One of the best budget workout headphones we've tested, the JLab Epic Air Sport ANC (2nd Gen) are a fantastic purchase for novice exercisers requiring sonic fuel to boost their exercise routine. They have a more refined soundstage (when you enable the Balanced EQ) that continues to place bass at the forefront, but also gives mids and highs some attention for pleasant audio consumption. JLab’s signature earhook design is dependable for on-ear stability and built for longevity, thanks to durable construction with IP66 certification for dirt, sweat and water resistance.
