By

If you’re thinking about buying new headphones, you wouldn’t want to miss the discounts from this year’s Memorial Day sales. The good news is that you no longer have to wait because there are early offers that are already available, including price cuts on over-ear headphones and wireless earbuds from brands such as Apple, Bose, and Sony. You’re going to have to be quick with your purchase though, because while there’s still some time before the holiday arrives, we’re not sure how long stocks will last for these Memorial Day headphone deals, especially for the more popular models.

Best Bose headphone Memorial Day deals

Bose, which spearheaded the development of active noise cancellation technology, is one of the premiere names in the audio industry. There’s always a lot of interest whenever there are Bose headphone deals, and that should still be the case for Memorial Day. Popular models such as the Bose QuietComfort Ultra will probably sell out quickly, so proceed with your transactions as soon as you can if you’ve got an eye on these wireless headphones.

Score the Beats Studio Pro for $100 off at Best Buy

It’s getting harder and harder to find wireless headphones and earbuds without noise-canceling these days, and that’s because the feature is a true godsend. As masters of the tech, Beats has been delivering excellent ANC audio products for years, which is why we’re so excited that Best Buy has marked down the Beats Studio Pro headphones. Normally, these headphones are $350, but now they’re only $250 while the sale lasts!

Why you should buy Beats Pro headphones
A solid set of noise-canceling headphones are nothing without robust sound quality backing them up; and to that end, the Studio Pro has got you covered. You can expect big bass, articulate mids, and crystalline highs, but without all the sibilance that too much treble brings. You’ll even be able to download the Beats App to truly fine-tune your listening experience, while monitoring battery level and other vitals. There’s no multi-band EQ, but that’s a small detractor for some otherwise rock-solid companion software.

Best Prime Day headphone deals: What to expect in 2024
Prime Day Headphone Deals

With Memorial Day out of the way, it can seem like a long slog to the fall/winter holiday season for the deals-conscious buyer. But that most unofficial of summer holidays is coming... Prime Day. Prime Day is set to come this year in July, though we aren't exactly sure when at this time, and Prime Day deals (early, official, and third party) are around the corner. Here, we're looking specifically at headphones (and, admittedly, some nice earbuds) and how they're being treated this Prime Day. So, if you're looking to get dirt cheap headphones, high-end headphones on the cheap, or anything in between this Prime Day, this is the place to keep tabs on the constantly evolving state of the deals as we'll be constantly updating this as official Prime Day begins.
Today's best headphone deals
Prime Day isn't here yet and we don't know when it will officially begin, except that it starts sometime in July. This means one thing when it comes to deals on headphones: For the widest variety of deals, try to wait until next month. But that doesn't mean that there aren't great headphones deals going on right now, and if you just can't wait (or your old headphones are broken) it's still fine to shop deals now so long as you accept that the widest range of deals, and possible better prices, are coming later.

Here are the best headphone (and earbuds) deals going on now:
