A good headset feels like a necessity in the modern age, but if you’re looking for something compact, there’s a Black Friday deal on right now for the Beats Studio earbuds that feature active noise-cancelling technology. Normally $150, you can get these for $80, a pretty substantial savings. These are sweat-resistant earbuds as well, so if you’re looking for something to use when you’re at the gym, they should work nicely during a strenuous workout. You can pick between black, red, and white Studio Buds.
If you’re looking for a stocking-stuffer, the Amazon Echo Buds with ANC are on sale for only $35. Alternatively, the Anker Soundcore P20i and P30i earbuds are down to $20 and $25 each, and a set of Tozo T6 earbuds are available for $21 (was $43). These are fine for their price, and while you can use them to listen to a few tunes, they’re not exactly audiophile-grade hardware.
On the gaming side, there are some nice models available that combine powerful technology with a slick design. PlayStation’s Pulse Explore earbuds are on sale for $170 (was $200). These offer full support for the console’s Tempest 3D Audio and several other gaming-focused features Alternatively, there’s Sony’s Inzone Buds, which are designed for PC but have full compatibility with PS5. The Inzone Buds have superb ANC, so they are worth checking out if you want gaming earbuds that block out noise.
There’s also the Asus ROG Cetra, easily the best-looking gaming earbuds on the market, and these ones have a powerful battery life, hybrid active noise-canceling technology, and work across multiple platforms like PC, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.
