The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones drop to a record-low price for the Amazon Spring Sale

As someone who paid full price for Sony's WH-1000XM5 headphones, I am incredibly jealous to report that they are down to a new all-time low price for Amazon's Spring Sale. Yes, our choice for 2025's best wireless headphones have dropped to $250 from $400 — a 38 percent discount. The sale is available on the Black, Silver and Smoky Pink models, while the Midnight Blue option is going for $328.

There are few tech products I would recommend to anyone, but Sony's M5 headphones are one of them. I've raved so much about them that my parents and brother all bought a pair (while my partner uses mine about as often as I do). One of the biggest things for me, as someone who gets headaches easily, is that they're so comfortable. I've worn them on quite a few overnight flights now and can easily keep them on the whole time. 

Speaking of flights, the active noise cancellation is another reason they're a treat for those overnight hauls. The M5s have double the processors and and microphones for ANC as their predecessor. I once slept two rows away from a crying baby and, with music on, I couldn't hear a thing. Plus, the 30 hours of battery life means I don't have to worry about them dying half way through my travels (my AirPods always need to recharge in their case before I arrive). 

Their excellence on flights isn't the only reason we gave Sony's M5 headphones a 95 in our review. They're also great for listening to music while working or out for a walk. The M5s have 30mm carbon fiber drivers and DSEE Extreme, together boosting the sound's quality and depth. My only complaint is that the M5s don't fold up, but especially at this price, they're still such a great buy.
