It’s always worth treating yourself when it comes to a new pair of headphones or true wireless earbuds, but with our deals you don’t have to spend a fortune.
When it comes to buying the best headphones or even the best true wireless earbuds, we recommend setting aside a decent budget before making a purchase. While there are plenty of great budget options for younger listeners (you can read as much in our best cheap headphones round-up), you’re better off spending a bit more and investing in a truly high-end bit of tech.
After all, you’re going to be using these headphones on your commute, whilst working, walking or even cooking. Plus, what’s a flight without a great pair of headphones? Terrible, that’s what. You’re going to get a lot of use out of them, so you never want to be in a situation where you find yourself wishing that the audio quality was a little sharper, or that the active noise cancelling was a bit tougher.
Still, even though flagship level headphones can cost around £300/$300, thanks to our constantly updating list of deals, you can avoid paying those prices and save yourself some serious cash on whichever pair of headphones and earbuds you decide to buy. Just take a look below to see which options we recommend, and their corresponding offers.

Sony WH-1000XM5
No company can do sound quite like Sony. The brand has been perfecting its soundscape over several iterations of headphones and in the Sony WH-1000XM5, all of that experience comes to a head to offer an incredible audio experience that simply can’t be beat.

Bose QuietComfort Ultra
If active noise cancelling is what you prioritise above all else then look no further than the Bose QuietComfort Ultra. These powerful headphones can become your best friend on a long flight, giving you the chance to melt away into whatever film or TV show you’re watching.

AirPods Pro 2
Because of their reasonable price point and all of the top-shelf features they come with, the AirPods Pro 2 are an essential buy for any iPhone user. The way they seamlessly connect between Apple devices never gets old, and the soundscape is surprisingly robust, particularly when paired with lossless audio on Apple Music.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro
If you want the best AirPods equivalent within the Android space then the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are the way to go. Samsung’s created a great all-round experience here, with pleasing audio quality, solid noise cancelling and a battery life that can run for up to 26-hours with ANC switched on.

Bowers and Wilkins Px7 S2e
Sometimes it just isn’t enough for a pair of headphones to have great audio quality and tough ANC, there also needs to be some consideration for the style of the whole apparatus. If you value the aesthetic just as much as the feature-set then the Bowers and Wilkins Px7 S2e are a great buy, particularly as they come in a range of fashionable colours to suit all tastes.

AirPods Max
Even though they cost quite a bit more than the competition, there’s no denying that the AirPods Max have it all. From style to sound quality, not to mention all of the seamless Apple-friendly features that the AirPods Pro 2 benefit from, the AirPods Max are the ultimate luxury buy for those who are firmly invested in Apple’s ecosystem.
