Why you should buy the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones

We described the Sony WH-1000XM5 as “the best headphones, period” in our list of the best headphones, and we gave them a perfect 5 out of 5 stars in our review. We didn’t think that the Sony WH-1000XM4 can get any better, but our Sony WH-1000XM5 versus Sony WH-1000XM4 comparison reveals that the latest model of the wireless headphones raises the bar even further with sleeker lines, lighter weight, a more comfortable fit with synthetic leather, superior active noise cancellation, and overall better sound and call quality.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 are the perfect headphones for long flights and your daily commute as they can last up to 30 hours on a single charge. If their battery runs low, just 3 minutes of charging will give you 3 hours of usage, so they’ll rarely be out of commission. If you’re always bringing multiple devices with you, you can pair the Sony WH-1000XM5 to two of them through its Bluetooth Multipoint feature. The headphones also have a capacitive sensor that knows when you’re wearing them, so they’ll stop the music when you take them off and resume playing when you put them back on.

If you’ve had your sights set on the Sony WH-1000XM5 for a while now, you wouldn’t want to miss this chance to buy the wireless headphones with a $70 discount from Best Buy. With these savings, their price goes down from $400 to only $330, and they’re going to be worth every single penny. There’s no assurance that this deal will still be online tomorrow though, so if you want to take advantage of this offer, add the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones to your cart and finish the checkout process immediately.

The TCL QM7K Series displaying a fruit arrangement.

There's news, and then there's great news. The news is that TCL recently released the QM7K TV. The great news is that its 98-inch version — if you follow You Asked you might heard about it a few days ago — is already hugely discounted. Just how hugely? Like a lot of things, it sort of depends on who you ask. If you go with TCL's suggested price of $5,000, it's $2,200 off, while if you go with Best Buy's standard price of $4,000, it's $1,200 off. Either way, this massive TV (with a massive discount) is marked down to $2,800 at the moment.

Go check out this hot TV deal via one of the buttons below, but also be sure to keep reading to get an overview of what we've seen and experienced with this 2025 release.

The WH-1000XM6 are here, so a lesser discussed pair of Sony headphones are $50 off
Sony ULT Wear.

The first thing you need to know is that the Sony WH-1000XM6 are now out. If that's news to you, go read our WH-1000XM6 review right now. They're a contender to usurp their predecessor, the WH-1000XM5, at the top of the nearly everyone's list of the best headphones after we've had more time to sit with them and evaluate them. It should come as no surprise that the XM5 are on sale at the moment. However, it's also worth noting that their release has also prompted the less-discussed Sony ULT Wear headphones to go on sale.

The Sony ULT Wear are great headphones in their own right, making it on our list of the best noise-cancelling headphones for their ANC and excellent bass. You can get your Sony ULT Wear now for just $148 at Amazon, down $52 from their usual $200. Alternatively, you can grab them for $150 at Sony or Walmart, if you prefer those vendors. In any event, tap the appropriate button to pick up these headphones now — the sale will probably go away when the XM6 release fanfare dies down — and keep reading to see why we like them so much.
