These JBL headphones are discounted as an early Prime Big Deal Days offer

JBL Tune 720BT in white.

If you're thinking about buying new headphones, you may want to take advantage of the discounts from Amazon's early Prime Big Deal Days. The shopping event will run from Oct. 8 to Oct. 9, but you can already enjoy savings when buying these JBL wireless headphones -- the JBL Tune 510BT and the JBL Tune 720BT are both $10 off, with the former down to $30 from $40, and the latter down to $70 from $80. These headphone deals are only available for a limited time though, so we think they'll be gone once this year's Prime Big Deal Days officially start. Shop them now while you still can.

Early Prime Big Deal Days offer drops AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) to $190

The Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe in their case.

Now's a fantastic time to buy the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C, as the wireless earbuds are on sale at $59 off from Amazon in its early Prime Big Deal Days. From their original price of $249, they're down to a more affordable $190 in an offer that may no longer be available when the shopping event starts on Oct. 8. If you want to take advantage of this 24% discount, you're going to have to be quick because their price may go back to normal at any moment.

Why you should buy the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C
The recently announced Apple AirPods 4 is getting a lot of attention as the first model in the series to offer active noise cancellation, but the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C is still our recommendation for Apple fans in our roundup of the best wireless earbuds. Compared to the Apple AirPods 4, the Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C feature eartips that really seal in the sound, which makes their ANC more effective. They're also more comfortable to wear, so you'll be able to maximize their battery life of up to six hours with ANC enabled, and up to 30 hours with their charging case.
