Apple’s entry-level headphones bring many of the ‘Pro’ benefits to the masses, with a new, more secure fit and improved acoustic design for richer, clearer sound. Available in two versions – our flagship version, with active noise cancellation, and also a non-ANC edition (on sale for $79) – they support adaptive audio, transparency mode, conversation awareness, and personalized spatial audio for a more immersive and contextual listening experience. You still get basic features like quick pairing, automatic device switching, “Hey Siri” voice control, plus up to 5 hours of listening time (and up to 30 hours with the case). There’s the legendary ease of use and even Find My integration, which helps you avoid losing your AirPods. But at this price, you might just want to buy a backup pair. If you own an iPhone, you really need to have AirPods.

Since its introduction in 2017, the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom has been a proven favorite, one of the best Bluetooth speakers under $100 in any situation, thanks to its durability and sound quality. And the Wonderboom 4 continues this musical tradition, giving you an audio orb that you can easily take with you: in the woods or in the surf, at the beach or in the bathtub. This portable Bluetooth speaker comes in fun two-tone colors with a flexible handle at the top that can easily be attached to a backpack, belt loop, bike basket, or boat. It weighs less than 1 pound and measures just 4 inches tall, so you won’t be slowed down by bulk. The battery lasts a full 14 hours and produces 360-degree sound coverage of up to 87 dB in Outdoor Boost mode, which is pretty impressive for a 10W speaker of this size. With an IP67 rating and the ability to float, it’s a perfect shower/pool speaker, available in four colors. You can also pair several if you want more liquid funk, which is even more affordable if you act quickly while it’s at its lowest price of the year.

With Nothing’s signature transparent aesthetic and KEF’s spacious, clean, and controlled sound signature, these over-ear headphones are snappy and eye-catching. 40mm drivers aim for a clear, detailed presentation, while hybrid active noise cancellation and a six-mic system help keep your music and calls sounding tasteful in noisy environments. Add in physical controls, multi-device pairing, high-resolution LDAC audio, and a marathon-friendly 80-hour battery life, and you’ve got a sleek daily driver designed to stand out as much on a flight as it does on a spec sheet.

A premium Dolby Atmos soundbar that anchors an immersive living room setup with powerful cinematic sound and tight integration into the Sonos multi-room, multi-dimensional ecosystem. Any discount on the Arc Ultra is notable for home theater fans, especially when paired with other Sonos gear, such as the Era 300 surround speakers and Sub 4 wireless subwoofer (both also on sale).

Do you prefer a shared listening experience? There are also deals on portable party speakers. Sony’s ULT FIELD 5 is a Bluetooth speaker designed to hit hard without sounding like you’re trying. It’s the sonic sequel to the already excellent SRS-XG300, but with more edge and less bloat, physically and sonically. The dual tweeters and passive radiators give it a real punch, especially if you’re streaming LDAC from an Android device, but it still works well with iPhone AAC. The shimmering SONY logo and ambient LEDs fit into the ambiance. IP67 means it’s beach and beer proof and lasts up to 25 hours (and acts as a power bank). It’s not true wide stereo, but the ULT mode hits hard, clean and bassy. Think party muscle in a refined setting.
