Yahoo Finance Best headphone deals for Amazon Prime Day 2022: Offers on Samsung Galaxy Buds and Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 OLD
A great pair of headphones are as essential as your phone, keys and wallet; a modern daily essential that would ruin your day if you found yourself without.
Whether you’re finally tuning in to that must-hear podcast all your mates have banging on about, want to lose yourself in the latest album from your favourite artist, or just need a decent noise-cancelling pair for video calls, these tiny pieces of tech are the things we just can’t be without.
The good news is there are thousands of designs out there, so you’re bound to find the right pair for you. They could be in-ear, over-ear or wireless for true freedom (helpful for the commute and workouts). They also come in wide-ranging price points, and if you’ve got your heart set on a pricey pair the good news is that Amazon Prime Day is set to make them more affordable (alongside all the other tech gadgets like tablets, mobile phones and cameras that you have your eye on).
When does Amazon Prime Day end?
This year, Amazon’s mega sale takes place on July 12 and 13. Two days of glorious discounts are here, ready and waiting to be snapped up and delivered to your home - but only if you buy before 23:59 when the event ends.
What type of deals are available?
As well as the event-long deals (which will run from 00:01am on July 12 until 11.59pm on July 13), there are two deals to know about come the big day.
Lightning Deals are flash sales, lasting a few hours or less. Stock is extremely limited so you need to be quick when you spot something you fancy at an irresistible price. Mull it over for too long and you might miss out altogether.
Daily Deals give you a bit more breathing space, but you’ll still need to act fast if you want a slice of the sales pie. With thousands of Prime members eyeing up the same product, great deals don’t hang around for long.
Do you need a Prime account to get the deals?
The sale is only open to those with an Amazon Prime account, so if you’re not signed up, now is the perfect time. There’s more to it than just shopping (although Same Day delivery in some cities is worth it alone).
Prime membership gives you access to the entire Amazon juggernaut, from the latest Hollywood releases and Amazon exclusive shows through Prime Video. With summer here, find your new beach read in Amazon’s library where there are thousands of free titles to download, and save storage space on your devices by uploading pics to Amazon’s digital photo album, a useful free perk for Prime members.
Then there’s the world of audio enjoyment from Prime Music which will sound even better with your shiny new headphones.
Prime membership costs £79 as a yearly fee, or you can choose to pay £7.99 a month. If you’re still in education, you can save even more - Student Prime costs £3.99 a month but only after an extremely generous six-month trial period. Regular shoppers can claim a free trial too, but not for as long (30 days).
Aside from a new pair of headphones, this might be the savviest investment you make all summer.
What deals on headphones were there last year?
Audio players big and small pounced on the chance to offer deals to bargain-hungry Prime members. Panasonic, Bose, Marshall, Sony and Beats all turned down the volume on their prices, and there were specialised sports-focused earphones from the likes of Adidas and Shokz on offer too.
For instance, the price of Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones tumbled down to £94.99 from the original RRP of £179.95.
What deals can we expect this year?
Deals on headphones are flying all over Amazon’s digital shop, and there are some big savings to be had alongside other tech gadgets such as tablets, cameras and speakers.
