As Mashable’s tech editor, I’ve covered a lot of great headphones launched 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-canceling headphones, Black Friday season is the best time to buy. All the headphones I’ve mentioned are currently at record prices – To all of them.
However, you won’t find them all in this guide, as not every Black Friday headphone deal is worth purchasing. I’ve collected the biggest discounts on noise-canceling headphones that I’d really recommend buying, whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for Christmas gifts for techies.

Check out our full review of the Sony WH-1000XM5.
As lead shopping reporter Bethany Allard did, I tested Sony’s famous XM5 headphones against the new version, the XM6. And we both found that they are more alike than different. Unless you’re a picky audiophile, I think most people should opt for the XM5 model during the sale, which is what Allard recommended in his comparison. The price of these headphones has never been lower, 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 for adjusting EQ settings.

The second-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are the best noise-canceling 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 extremely comfortable, and they let you slip into a cone of silence on demand.
