Sony, JBL, Sennheiser and Bose all feature, and everything has at least a 4 star review
Every year when Prime Day comes rolling around, I admit I can be a little sceptical as to just how good the deals will be. I don’t mean in general – our live coverage of the best Prime Day deals proves there are terrific bargains to be had on a range of devices and appliances – I’m talking specifically about personal audio.
I understand the hype around Prime Day, but I’m usually of the persuasion that Black Friday will be the best time to scoop up crazy bargains on the likes of headphones, Bluetooth speakers and other audio gear. Well, this year Amazon has given me a proper slap around the face and has delivered far and beyond anything I expected, and to prove it, I’ve picked out 10 of my favourite personal audio deals for you to inspect for yourself.
These aren’t deals from obscure companies you’ve never heard of either, with heavy-hitter brands like JBL, Sony, Sennheiser and Bose dominating, and prices starting from just AU$66. Best of all, everything on my list has received at least a four-star rating from us at TechRadar, and nothing is priced over AU$400. Do note, however, that all these deals are Prime-exclusive, so you’ll need an Amazon membership to take advantage. Don’t have one? You can always sign up for a free trial.
So, without further ado.
Not all Bluetooth speakers need to be big, brash, party-starting monsters. If you just want to enjoy some music on your own without the use of headphones, or head out on a hike with some friends carrying a lightweight speaker to soundtrack your day, the JBL Clip 5 is the perfect choice. It has a built-in carabiner clip to attach to virtually anything, it can go loud and remain detailed and it’s available in a range of fetching colours.
Want a great pair of noise-cancelling in-ear headphones without breaking the bank? Look no further than the Earfun Air Pro 3. While there’s actually a newer model of these available, we reckon the third-generation is the one to get, especially at this price. They’re an excellent all-rounder, serving up a fun, engaging sound. Battery life is also stellar at 36 hours in total with ANC on.
