These are not the top-of-the-line Sony WH-1000XM3 noise cancelling headphones but these also don’t cost over $300 – or even over $200! I have not personally tried these but reviewers say that they have a decent amount of noise cancelling performance as well as nice comfort and a lot of bass. If that is what you like in headphones, these may be for you!
Deal of the Day: Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones
Link: Deal on Sony WH-XB900N for $128
I really loved Sony products and have several of them – from noise cancelling earbuds to cameras. But, I honestly cannot stand their system of naming products! 🙂 These are not the more expensive and better quality Sony WH-1000XM3 but the Sony WH-XB900N. At least one part of that name we can understand and that is the “XB” which stands for Extra Bass.
If you need a pair of headphones for travel and around and about for listening to music, these could do that for you and at a much lower price than their more advanced big brother. They get up to 30 hours of battery life and have Alexa and Google Assistant access with just a touch. You can use the Sony app to customize the sound for how you like it. Finally, they use USB Type C for power charging also (yes! With many phones and electronics using USB C, it makes it much more compact when packing your travel gear!).
Just remember that Black Friday is around the corner. I would not be surprised to see deals that bring the Sony WH-1000XM3 down to $250 or even close to $200. But, if spending over $130 for headphones is not something you are interested in, this is probably a really good deal. Just remember that they won’t have the noise cancelling of the WH-1000XM3 or the Bose QuietComfort 35 II. If you have never owned either, you probably won’t notice any difference from what you missed!
