There are some great headphone deals around this Cyber Monday. The brilliant Sony WF-1000XM3 true wireless earbuds are almost half-price, while the brand new five-star, over-ear WH-1000XM5 are down to their lowest-ever price.

Both are great deals, but we think this one might actually pip it. The Sony WF-C500 wireless earbuds were already great value at their original price, but now Cyber Monday has seen their price slashed in half.

The WF-C500 are down from $90 to £49 in the UK, while in the US they're down from $100 to $58.

Boasting impressive musicality and excellent levels of detail and insight, these comfortable, sporty earbuds are well worth even their non-discounted price. The WF-C500 feature 20 hours of battery life, IPX4 splash resistance and Bluetooth 5.0, and are available in black, white, orange and mint.

These are cheap and cheerful Bluetooth earbuds that deliver a 20-hour battery life, are available in a range of finishes, and deliver bona fide great sound quality. 

We like the Sony WF-C500 so much that they're our current budget Best Buy winner in the wireless earbuds category.

At their new, lowest-ever price in the UK and US, they're even more of a steal. Sony brings its considerable expertise in flagship earbuds into a stocking filler of a bud that's hugely appealing, which makes it easy to recommend to anyone prepared to stretch their budget just a touch.

Still too expensive? You can find even cheaper options in our round-up of the best wireless earbuds deals.
