Sony dropped their WH-1000XM6 headphones back in May to much acclaim. We rate them the best sound-first headphones, but that doesn't diminish Sony's previous models. The WH-1000XM4 and XM5s are both still available, delivering exceptional sound. But why go for older tech when the newer models are right there? One word: savings.

As of Oct. 17, the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones (aka the predecessor to the XM6s) are down to $284.99. That's $115 less than its $399.99 MSRP, for 29% off. This deal is only on the XM5 headphones in black, however, other colors are on sale but the savings aren't as grand.

The Sony WH-1000XM5s are stellar headphones, in fact, we rated them higher than the XM6s in our review. They bring top-tier noise cancellation and sound that puts your right in the studio. If you're working in the office, they'll block out every last noise so you can keep out distractions. Plus, they have touch controls so you can turn up the volume or take calls without pulling out your phone.

Shop the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones for $284.99 at Walmart and save $115.
