Amazon Prime Day: Best headphones deals
If you've been looking for a new set, today might be your lucky day
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Amazon’s new Prime Day 2017 deals make for far better browsing for technology enthusiasts than yesterday’s.
The company has just reduced the prices of several excellent sets of headphones, including over-ear, in-ear and sports models.
If you’ve been looking for a pair, today might just be your lucky day.
Over-ear headphones
The Philips Fidelio X2 Hi-Res headphones are down to £129.99 (RRP £272.07). That’s a massive price reduction for a highly rated high-resolution audio set.
If that’s a little steep for you, the Sennheiser HD 598SR over-ear headphones are now available for £99 (RRP £199).
In-ear headphones
The Sony XBA-N1AP Premium High-Res Audio in-ear headphones with dynamic drivers are now down to £79.99 (£150), and the already temptingly cheap Sony MDR-EX450AP in-ear headphones are £19.99 (RRP £40).
Sports headphones
If you need a new pair of headphones you can exercise in, Jaybird has you covered. Today, you can get its Freedom Wireless headphones for £79 (RRP £139.99).
If you're not tempted by any of the offers above, you can keep an eye on the Lightning Deals section, which contains completely different listings that launch and expire throughout the day.
You need to be an Amazon Prime member in order to access the Prime Day deals.
The subscription service also gets you one-day delivery on orders, but costs £79 per year or £7.99 per month.
Fortunately, you can sign up for a free 30-day Amazon Prime trial ahead of Prime Day, and cancel it at a later date.
