Sony’s WH-1000XM4 headphones are $159 off on Amazon

If you’re looking for a great pair of high-end headphones, this deal is for you.

Sony’s excellent WH-1000XM4 headphones are currently on sale for $348 on Amazon ($151.99/30 percent off). As of right now, all three colours, including ‘Black,’ ‘Blue’ and ‘Silver’ are still in stock and on sale at the online retailer.

Sony’s 1000-XM4 headphones feature 30 hours of battery life, including 10 minutes of charge offering five hours of playback. They also offer touch sensor controls for pause/play/skip/volume control, noise cancellation and more. While we haven’t reviewed the high-end headphones, they’re often cited as a far more reasonably priced alternative to Apple’s pricey AirPods Max.

It’s also worth noting that Sony’s WH-1000XM4s are also on sale at Best Buy for $348. It’s worth noting that the XM4s were only released last summer and likely won’t get an update until this coming summer.

Apple giving away Apple Music 6-month trial with AirPods and Beats purchase

If you’ve been holding off for a decent deal before upgrading your Apple AirPods or Beats headphones, now might be the moment you’ve been waiting for. Apple is currently offering six months free of Apple Music with the purchase of several different AirPods models or Beats headphones/earbuds.

According to Apple, the AirPods, AirPods Pro, AirPods Max, Beats Studio Buds, Powerbeats, Powerbeats Pro and Beats Solo Pro, all qualify for the deal.

It’s important to point out that this offer is only available to “new subscribers with an eligible device for a limited time only,” according to the fine print on Apple’s website. Unfortunately, this means that if you’re already a current or past Apple Music subscriber, you won’t be able to add an additional six months to your subscription.

Apple also says that you need to be running iOS 15 or iPadOS 15 on your iPhone or iPad, and redeem the offer within 90 days.

As far as free Apple Music promos go, this one is pretty sweet. It’s just unfortunate that current subscribers don’t qualify for the offer.
