JLab is known for making highly affordable headphones and earbuds that have a little something extra. When something JLab goes on sale, it is worth giving it a second look, as you’re going to be getting a super cheap price. This time around, the sale belongs to the JLab Studio ANC headphones. They’re usually $59, but right now you can get them for just $37. That’s a savings of $22, which accounts for about 37% of the total price of the headphones. To see these budget headphones and decide if you want to purchase them today based on your evaluations, tap the button below. Otherwise, keep reading to see our take and what it was like to use them.

Why you should buy the JLab Studio ANC

The JLab Studio ANC are solidly built and have soft, cloudfoam earcups to both dull the sounds of the outside world more than the included ANC can do alone and keep your ears comfy. You can even interact with Siri or your Google assistant from the internal mic and control it all with a press of a button, no need to dig your phone out of your pocket. These headphones are surprisingly feature-rich for just being $37.

But being feature rich doesn’t give us the “extra” we often see from JLab. As seen in our JLab Studio ANC review, the standout feature of these is the supreme battery life. You can 34+ hours of playtime with the ANC feature turned off and 28+ hours with it on. And, considering this is budget level ANC we’re talking about, you may very well wish it to be off in most circumstances anyhow. At $37 these are perfectly imperfect headphones, and that’s okay.

The JLab Studio ANC are on sale today for just $37. That’s $22 and 37% down from their usual price of $59, making them an excellent pair of cheap headphones for your travel bag or backpack. Tap the button below to get them while this deal still remains.

You can snag Samsung’s 7.1.2-channel soundbar for just $750 today
The Samsung HW-Q850D 7.1.2 Soundbar.

Even the best TVs don't really have the same sort of audio quality that you'd get from a stand-alone system that's specifically made for it. That means that, if you're looking for your next TV room upgrade, one of the best things you can do is get yourself something like Samsung's HW-Q850D soundbar. The HW-Q850D is similar to the HW-Q990C, our pick for the best soundbar on the market, and it's heavily discounted down to just $750 from $1,100 at Best Buy, which constitutes a substantial $350 discount. We don't often see it discounted that steeply, so it's absolutely worth grabbing now.

Why you should buy the Samsung HW-Q850D 7.1.2 channel wireless soundbar
For starters, one of the great things about the Samsung HW-Q850D is that it has a lot of additional speakers to hit the 7.1.2 channel, and that includes a couple of satellite speakers and a subwoofer. If you're not familiar with various classifications of surround sound, you can check out our ultimate surround sound guide, but the long and short of it is that it has seven main speakers, a subwoofer, and up-firing speakers for a 3-dimensional effect. That gives you a pretty large coverage of space to really create a deep soundstage in the room, so it really feels like you're surrounded by the audio that's coming from whatever you're watching or listening to.
