As Mashable’s tech editor, I’ve covered a lot of cool headphone launches this year. The long-awaited Sony XM6 headphones finally came out this year, and we also got new flagship headphones from Nothing, Bowers & Wilkins, Bose, and Beats. If you need a new pair of noise-cancelling headphones, the Black Friday season is the best possible time to buy. All of the headphones I mentioned are currently sitting at record prices — all of them.
However, you won’t find all of them in this guide, as not every Black Friday headphones deal is worth shopping. I’ve gathered the biggest discounts on the noise-cancelling headphones I’d actually recommend buying, whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for Christmas gifts for techies.
Everything to know about Black Friday 2025: Best early deals, sale dates, price matching, and more
Some of the best Black Friday noise-cancelling headphones deals have already earned a spot in our guide to the top deals. From audiophile-worthy headphones from Bowers & Wilkins to the latest Bose wireless earbuds, you’ll find the best of the best here.
And PS: Deals really aren’t here to stay. Now that Black Friday moves towards Cyber Monday, we’ve noticed that AirPods are increasing in price. Walmart’s deal on the AirPods Pro 2 and the AirPods 4 with ANC at Amazon have both increased in price, so act fast to secure these low prices.

Why we like it
Check out our full review of the Sony WH-1000XM5.
I tested Sony’s legendary XM5 headphones against the newer version, the XM6, as did Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard. And both of us found that they’re far more alike than different. Unless you’re a picky audiophile, I think most people should opt for the XM5 model while it’s on sale, which is what Allard recommended in her comparison. These headphones have never been priced this low, and they still have all the features you really need: excellent audio quality, best-in-class active noise-cancellation, and an easy-to-use app to adjust EQ settings.

Check out our full review of the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen) earbuds.
The second-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are the best noise-cancelling earbuds of 2025, full stop. The only buds that really come close? The first-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds, which I’m wearing as I write this sentence. These earbuds are supremely comfortable, and they let you slip into a cone of silence on demand.
