Post-Prime Day Headphone Deals
The Beats Solo4 wireless headphones are popular, with an impressive 40 hours of battery life on a full charge. They’re also easy to use, with a remote built into the right earcup. They’re aimed at Apple and Android users using a custom Beats chip rather than an Apple H1 or H2 chip. They use Bluetooth 5.3.
Details
Apple’s AirPods Max are typically more expensive, but now you can save over $150 on these premium earbuds. They’re best paired with an Apple device because of the spatial virtual surround sound for iPhone and iPad and multipoint Bluetooth, which lets you automatically switch between iOS devices.

Do Prime Day headphone deals continue after Prime Day?
Most of the best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds ended along with Prime Day, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t deals that stick around after the event. Above, we’ve rounded up the best remaining Prime Day deals on headphones, but don’t wait too long because they won’t stick around.
How we chose the best Prime Day headphone deals
Many of us here at CNET have been covering shopping events for over five years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day, and countless other shopping events. Over that time, we’ve learned to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we only feature the best deals from trusted retailers. We look for genuine discounts, quality reviews, and the amount of time left on the sale when choosing which headphone deals to show you.
- Real discounts mean real savings. We check the price history of products on sale to see if it’s an inflated list price rather than a real discount.
- Quality testing and reviews are very important for any product. A discount is not worth it if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you save.
- The remaining sale time is also important. Some offers are only available for a short time or may be limited in number. If this is the case, we will inform you in advance so that you do not come back to the offer later to be disappointed.
