Prepare for long flights this summer with Sony ANC headphones from Amazon Prime Day

Peter, 12 July 2023

With summer in full swing, you’re quite likely to be spending several hours on a plane to your vacation destination. Your flight will be made more pleasant and quiet with the right active noise-canceling (ANC) headphones. We already looked at Apple AirPods offers for Prime Day, now let’s check out the Sony headphones.

We’ll start with the Sony WH-1000XM4. While they have been supplanted by the XM5, these offer better bang for your buck with similar features at a noticeably lower price. Check out our reviews for more details.

The WH-1000XM5 have updated ANC, which blocks out more noise in the mid and treble range, though it’s not as good as blocking bass. The XM5 are also lighter and have a better headband, but the padding on the cups isn’t as nice.

If those are too pricey, the WH-XB910N are a cheaper over-ear option. They are comfy and have good noise cancellation, just not as good as the XM4. And they have very long battery life to boot.

There are also a couple of TWS buds. The WF-1000XM4 are a relatively compact package with up to 10 hours of continuous play time and a decent ANC system, which is better at blocking out speech than engine noise. They are also more comfortable than the old XM3 model.

Again there is a cheap option, the Sony Sony WF-C700N at half the price. The ANC isn’t great, but these are lightweight and comfy buds with good battery life (up to 8 hours).
