Sony's WH-1000XM3 is officially the best noise cancelling headphones you can buy – even topping Bose QC35 and NC700. Okay, admittedly this Black Friday deal isn't on the WH-1000XM3 but with £100 slashed from the price, Sony WH-XB900N noise cancelling wireless headphones are well worth considering.
• Buy Sony WH-XB900N for £129 – usually £230 – save £101 at Amazon
These noise-cancelling headphones sit a rung below the likes of Bose, Bowers & Wilkins and Sony's aforementioned flagship WH-1000XM3. That's currently on Amazon at £269 – that's actually £61 off the RRP, which isn't a bad deal in itself. When the WH-XB900N is only £39 cheaper than the more premium, slightly better sounding WH-1000XM3, there's no good reason to consider buying it, unless you especially like the blue colouring.
However, with the price plunged to £129 suddenly they look much more attractive. After all, they only sound slightly worse than the WH-1000XM3, which is still the best noise cancelling headphone you can buy. 129 quid is cheap.
Sony WH-XB900N £129 | Was £230 | Save £101 at Amazon
These headphones sound broadly similar to the award-winning WH-1000XM3 but foreground the bass more – you'll need Sony's Headphones app to turn this on and off. The RRP of £230 leaves them feeling a bit overpriced but at £129 you'd be crazy not to consider these noise-cancelling headphones.View Deal
