Digital Trends

If you frequently find yourself on long plane rides or enjoy working in public outdoor spaces, a great pair of over-ear wireless headphones are a fine investment. But how do you find the perfect pair among all the headphone deals out there? For most people, the ideal pair would have noise cancellation, a long battery life, fantastic audio quality, and comfort for extended periods. One of the best Sony headphone deals – the Sony WH-1000XM3 Wireless Headphones – ticks all of those boxes and is on sale right now at Best Buy. You can get it for just $250, a huge $100 off the original price of $350. You can find out more about it below.

The Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones are the predecessor to the beloved Sony WH-1000XM4, which we called “perfect” in our review. While the WH-1000XM3 might not be the latest and greatest, it’s still packed with features and strengths that match right up with the latest Sony WH-1000XM4 deals. When you put them on, the first thing you’ll immediately notice is the lush, comfortable fit around your ears – no matter what shape your head or ears are. The slim profile, light body, and cushy, padded headband make it a delightful pair to wear for extended periods of time. The battery life is also incredible: the 1000XM3 can last for up to 30 hours on a single charge, and it has quick-charge capability using USB-C.

In our WH-1000XM3 review, we called it “the best choice for just about everybody.” One of the reasons why is its top-tier audio quality and performance. There’s prominent bass, detailed treble, a clear midrange, and an overall rich sound profile that will satisfy most listeners, even the most discerning ones. There’s also an EQ available via Sony’s app so you can customize the audio to your liking. And it has some of the best noise-canceling you can buy, thanks to Sony’s QN1 processor. It cancels out most environmental noise, from the loud traffic sounds to general clatter in the background, and it can intelligently match the noise-canceling level to the air pressure. This ensures maximum comfort during flights.

No matter what kind of listener you are, these are a fantastic pair of headphones. You can get the Sony WH-1000XM3 on Best Buy right now for just $250, which is a big $100 drop from the original price of $350. If you’re interested in this deal, you might want to jump on Best Buy right now and check it out because we’re not sure when this sale ends.

Apple is reportedly preparing its first Apple TV 4K hardware refresh in years, and the upgrade could address two everyday annoyances: having to speak into the Siri Remote to control the device and struggling to find the remote between sofa cushions.

According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple has tested two additions for the next Apple TV 4K: built-in microphones for hands-free Siri commands and a redesigned Siri Remote with a built-in speaker. The features are part of Apple’s broader smart home push, which is expected to be unveiled on October 13 alongside the new HomeView smart display and an updated HomePod mini.

Google is reportedly developing a new Google TV Streamer, and this time, the biggest upgrades could be about making your television more useful without reaching for the remote every few minutes. The upcoming device is expected to add built-in microphones for hands-free Google Assistant commands, presence sensing, a faster processor, and more storage.

According to a report by 9to5Google, the next-generation streamer will retain the current model’s familiar design, although its body will be slightly narrower. There is no confirmed launch date or pricing yet, so anyone waiting for an upgrade will have to hold on a little longer.

Galaxy Studio could be Samsung’s biggest audio comeback in 11 years
Samsung has spent 11 years away from over-ear headphones. Galaxy Studio may end the drought
Samsung Level Over inside white

Samsung has spent more than a decade making Galaxy earbuds, but its audio lineup had a very clear gap. The company doesn't make any proper pair of over-the-ear headphones. Though this hole might be filled soon.

Android developer and leaker @evowizz says Samsung’s upcoming over-ear headphones could launch as Galaxy Studio. The name carries a little more weight than your average leak because Samsung filed a US trademark application for GALAXY STUDIO on September 14, specifically covering headphones, headsets, and earbuds.
