While Sony has released the newer WH-1000XM5 model (priced at $398 and not on sale), the WH-1000XM4 remains an excellent product with virtually no significant differences from its successor. This makes the current offer even more appealing as consumers can acquire top-tier headphones at a fraction of the cost of the latest model.

Prime Day doesn't start until tomorrow, but this deal might not last until then. Sony's Award-winning WH-1000XM4 are now just $129 at Amazon – a discount of $221 (or 63 per cent) on their launch price, and $69 lower than their previous best price.

Amazon Prime Big Deals Day is nearly here, with plenty of excellent deals coming up before October 8th - even from other competing retailers. Included are two of the best headphones, the Sony WH-1000XM5 and the Beats Solo3 Wireless.

Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones are on sale for $129.99 at Amazon. That's a saving of 63% on its list price. October Prime Day has not kicked off yet, but we would be seriously surprised if any headphones deal during this shopping event can top the offer on Sony WH-1000XM4 wireless headphones.

The XM4 model are unbeatable when it comes to sound quality as well as the noise reduction qualities of its active noise cancellation. Well, to be fair, they were unbeaten until Sony’s latest XM5 model knocked them off the top spot of The Verge’s expert guide to the best noise-canceling headphones.
