Microsoft just recently got into the headphones game, introducing its Surface Headphones earlier this year. They are a good first try, but our biggest issue with them was their price; at $350 retail, they’re just too expensive. Well, thanks to Prime Day, you can now pick these up for a much better price.
Amazon is currently running a sale which marks the Surfaces down to $248, but with Prime, you’ll pay just $190
Our reviewers gave these headphones high marks for their simple yet elegant design and intuitive use. While the app may not be very useful, the headphones make app control a little redundant. The
We found the noise canceling to be very good even in our noisy office environment and about as good as you’ll get without custom molded in-ears to block out background noise. Sound quality is great and what you would expect from a pair of headphones at this price, and a generous two-year warranty gives you peace of mind should anything go wrong.
Are there better headphones out there? Sure — we’d recommend either the Bose QC35 II or the Sony WH-1000xM3’s as alternatives. But you’ll pay for it, and neither are as substantially discounted for Prime Day as the Surfaces are. But we would argue that the Surfaces are better for a wider variety of genres of music than the QC35 II’s, so keep that in mind.
