Doorbuster deal: Sony XM4 headphones are just $159.99 if you hurry
SAVE $190: As of Nov. 21, you can get the Sony WH-1000XM4 noise-canceling headphones for just $159.99, down from $349.99, at Best Buy. That's a $190 discount and the lowest price we've ever seen these headphones go for.
I’m not usually the person shouting about headphone specs, but I do know a pricing error when I see one — and this definitely feels like one. Best Buy just dropped the Sony WH-1000XM4s to $159.99. To give you some context, I looked up the price for a used pair on Amazon, and they're selling for about the same price. Getting a brand-new pair for under $160 is wild.
I know these aren't the newest model (the XM5s are out), but a lot of people actually prefer these older ones. The main reason? They fold. The new ones don't, which is annoying if you're trying to jam them into a carry-on.
Plus, they hold up. Mashable’s Alex Bracetti re-tested these in 2025 and flat-out said there is "no better audio deal right now" than the XM4s. You still get top-tier noise cancellation and 30 hours of battery life, just without the "newest model" price tag.
