The Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2 offer some of the best sound quality you can get out of wireless headphones, period. They have great battery life, too.

In our Beats Studio3 review, we said they offer a comfy fit, up to 22 hours of battery life, and near-seamless pairing with iOS devices. Their active noise-canceling also does a decent job of blocking ambient sounds.

Bose 700: was $379 now $289 @ Amazon
The only off-putting aspect of the Bose 700 is the high list price, but that's massively reduced here. Bose's flagship wireless cans have even better noise cancelation than that of the Sony WH-1000XM5, not to mention clear microphones for voice calls and excellent overall sound quality. However, the Bose 700 has been as low as $229 in the past, so this might be one to watch and wait on.

Marshall's Major IV have a massive 80 hours of battery life, as well as wireless charging so you can simply pop the outside of the one of the headphones’ ear cups on a wireless charging pad to top it up. Although we haven't tested this model at Tom's Guide, it's important to note that the Marshall Major IV does not feature active noise cancelling, but the brand's audio reputation means we're confident these are a great buy at the discounted price.

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 (soapstone): was $299 now $239 @ Amazon
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 take ANC to the next level. In our Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 review, we said these buds are a remarkable follow-up to their predecessors delivering better sound, call quality, and unrivaled ANC.

These are one of our favorite in-ears for fitness fans, but note that certain features are only supported on iOS devices.

If you're after a superb pair of wireless earbuds for Prime Day then look no further than the Sony WF-1000XM4. We awarded these 4.5 stars in our full Sony WF-1000XM4 review and described them as having "elite sound, noise cancelation and awesome features."

Sennheiser CX Plus: was $179 now $94 at Amazon
The Sennheiser CX Plus are some of our favorite earbuds thanks to their rich sound quality, and intuitive controls. They've also got good battery life and some decent ANC. It's a shame they can't be charged wirelessly, but they're still great value at this price.

Samsung Galaxy Buds Live: was $149 now $99 @ Amazon

Offering impressive call quality handling, these are great to have around when you're working from home or in the office. In our Jabra Elite 5 review we said that they offered good comfort levels with good hear-through transparency, and battery life is better than AirPods Pro 2. ANC wasn't the strongest, but these remain a worthwhile investment where call quality is a priority.
