The Sony XM5 headphones are now available for $348 at Amazon. (opens in new tab) This is the lowest price we've seen on the new XM5 headphones, having originally launched at $400 - so that's a saving of more than $50.
We've seen this low price before, but we certainly haven't seen the price tag go any lower. So if you want to take the plunge on some five-star class-leading wireless, noise-cancelling headphones, now looks like a great time to buy.

(opens in new tab)The Sony XM5 are hands down the best wireless, noise-cancelling headphones around. They follow the Award-winning XM4 and XM3, and continue Sony's legacy as one of the foremost makers of wireless headphones in the market.
But it's not just a case of more of the same. For the XM5, Sony went back to the drawing board, executing a complete redesign – a bold move when you're sitting on a line of Award-winning headphones.
It paid off. The XM5 boast a slimmer, noiseless design, with smoother, sweeping lines and areas less prone to catching wind when you're on a call. The downside is that they no longer fold up as small, and they feel a bit less premium than the company's previous offering. But that's a small price to pay for headphones this capable.
Noise-cancelling is on point thanks to the same Integrated Processor V1 seen in Sony's WF-1000XM4 wireless in-ears. This lets the cans automatically optimise the noise-cancelling as you move through different environments, so they're always most effective without you doing a thing.
And the sound? It's hugely musical and entertaining, representing a big step up from the previous model. Greater clarity, a more open presentation... the difference is palpable. And now that there's a Black Friday deal, they're an even better buy.
