We're tracking the best Prime Day deals live so you don't have to. Through tomorrow (Friday 11), we're vetting deals as they come in.
Many of the best over-ear headphone Prime Day deals include lowest ever prices this year. For example, you can get the Bose QuietComfort for just $199 at Amazon, down from $349.
However, I don't know about you, but my purse strings are extra tight this year. I want to save as much money as I possibly can. I have only one recommendation, and it's not snagging the Bose QuietComfort while they're at their lowest ever price.
It's going back to basics and getting the JLab JBuds Lux ANC, $47 on Amazon... the only pair of budget headphones I've ever recommended.
The JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones seem too good to be true. Great sound quality, really comfortable cups, 70 hours battery, app control, and amazing ANC, for just $47? You'd best believe it.
In my review of the JLab JBuds Lux ANC headphones, I wrote, "The new techno house offering from my current obsession band Confidence Man, ‘Let Them Bells Ring’, pounded through the drivers with such groove that I wanted to stop mid-walk and start boogie-ing". Usually budget headphones sound... well, to put it nicely, usually budget headphones sound less than ideal.
True, the JBuds struggle with a touch of muffled bass, but this isn't an individual issue. When I tested out the QuietComfort headphones, I wrote in my phone's notes: "bass sounds muffled?". It's true! Although the ANC is second-to-none, the Bose QuietComfort sound isn't $349 worth of quality. It's merely good.
For $349, I expect more than good. I expect phenomenal. I want to feel immersed and overtaken by the sensational magic of my music. I don't want to be merely pleased. I want to be blown away.
Which is why I can't recommend them over the JLab JBuds Lux ANC. This Prime Day, I think you should save your money and get the JLab headphones. You'd keep $152 — imagine what you could do with that extra cash.
