One of Amazon’s biggest sales of the year is once again upon us, bringing with it deals like no other for thousands of different choices for every kind of gamer there is. Prime Day 2019 officially started yesterday, and will run for the rest of today, July 16, which is the prime time to take a gander at what you’re missing in your different game collections, be it titles, accessories, and other peripherals.
For this edition we’ll be taking a look at some of the best Prime Day deals available on Bluetooth headsets, which are great for almost any kind of use case, be it as simple as listening to music or listening to some amazing soundtracks while playing video games. In any case, Amazon’s Prime Day has significantly lowered the prices for some of these deals, making them attractive purchases for whatever use case or scenario you might have – it’s Bluetooth-powered, after all.
Without further ado, let’s take a look at some of the best deals you can get in buying Bluetooth headsets for this year’s Prime Day.
Sony WH-CH700N Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Headset
Sony’s offerings for audiophiles across different enthusiast levels has grown somewhat slimmer in the recent years, but it’s still nice to find one in a lineup every once in a while that’s definitely worth the asking price. Even better is the fact that the WH-CH700N got such a huge price cut during this Prime Day. It should definitely be at the top of the list of everyone looking to get a premium Bluetooth headset for under a hundred bucks.
The Sony WH-CH700N is packed full of features like its very own digital noise cancellation which is AI-powered, allowing you to custom tune how much noise cancelling you get with a simple press of a button. It also features a built-in microphone that’s very intuitive for hands-free calling, and also doubles as a voice assistant tool with Amazon’s very own Alexa functionality. The battery will easily last you throughout long listening or gaming sessions, up to 35 hours of wireless playback and only taking 10 minutes for the quick charge capability. As with other Sony headsets, the WH-CH700N is also very comfortable and fully adjustable to whatever head shape is thrown at it.
Sennheiser HD 4.50 SE Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones
At any given price point, you can never go wrong with a Sennheiser, and although at the lower ends you can find somewhat better deals, it’s still amazing to go for one thanks to superior build quality. The HD 4.50 Special Edition is a testament to this sentiment, and thanks to Prime Day you can get yourself one for half off the original price at just under a hundred bucks. It’s also a deal exclusive only to Amazon users, so if you want that premium Sennheiser sound at one of the lowest prices it’s ever been, then now is a great time to pick it up.
Feature-wise, the HD 4.50 Special Edition utilizes both Bluetooth 4.0 and aptX technologies to deliver exceptional wireless sound quality through its soft, leatherette-covered ear pads that provide exceptional wearing comfort for long listening sessions. Sennheiser’s own noise cancellation technology, the Noise Gard, is also present here, giving you active noise cancellation that greatly reduces ambient noise levels. Battery life is also still exceptional at around 19 hours, and that’s with all the useful features like Noise Gard running. If you run out of juice, there’s still the option to connect it via a connecting cable for a battery-free listening experience.
Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones
Apple’s own lineup of headphones has been a go-to for many of their own customers for years now, although there is still some value if you want to get a Beats headset even without an iPhone or any Apple device, for that matter. It does tend to get a bit pricey, but some would argue that the premium is to be expected (Apple) and in some cases is actually worth it. In any case, this Prime Day allows you to snag the Solo3 Wireless for more than half of its original price slashed off, which could be the push someone needs to get a Beats headset.
There may be a premium thanks to the brand, but the Solo3 Wireless is no slouch when it comes to features. It boasts a 40-hour battery, which is probably the longest compared to almost everything else on this list. The fine-tuned acoustics maximize clarity, breadth, and balance for one hell of a listening experience, and the pair itself is powered by Apple’s W1 chip, which bring seamless setup and switching for your various Apple devices. You can also take calls with the built-in microphone, which also allows for Siri integration – the resulting device is certainly one to consider if you own any Apple device.
Bose SoundLink Wireless Headphones II
Like Sennheiser, Bose is a brand that offers uncompromising quality, although at higher price points than other brands. There is some reason to this, though, because as it stands, it’s hard to match that kind of quality that’s outside of the other premiums you get when you buy a Bose pair. That said, Prime Day is a great time to pick up the SoundLink II, which is on a lower price range than most of their offerings while still quite competitive against its peers, with the added bonus that it’s more affordable now thanks to the given deal.
As for feature set, the SoundLink II boasts a deep and very immersive sound courtesy of what Bose is bragging to be the EQ-best-in-class performance-wise across all wireless headphones. It’s a very bold claim, but one that Bose can easily back up thanks to the combination of TriPort technology and Active EQ that delivers crisp and strong sound at any volume. There’s also a neat seamless switching feature built-in, allowing you to switch between devices connected to the headphones with a press of a button, conveniently located on one of the earcups.
Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT Wireless Headphones
At a price that’s basically higher than any other listing here, the Audio-Technica ATH-M50xBT is still quite the steal. If you care about studio-level quality in your listening experience, then there are fewer choices that make sense – add to that the Prime Day deal, and the ATH-M50xBT is easily one of the best you can get for the overall value thanks to its very rich feature set bolstered by the manufacturer’s brand premium and overall experience when it comes to amazing sound quality.
The ATH-M50xBT is basically a wireless version of the ever popular ATH-M50x professional studio headphones, meaning that you’ll be getting actual studio quality sound while on the go. It’s powered by a set of proprietary 45mm large-aperture drivers that deliver exceptional clarity throughout an extended frequency range, and with deep, accurate bass response throughout. Like the Solo3 Wireless, the ATH-M50xBT can last over 40 hours of continuous use on a single full charge. Listening for that long is also a comfortable experience, as this headset is made with professional-grade earpad and headband material for long-lasting durability and comfort.
