Black Friday 2024 is in full swing, and there are amazing deals and discounts nearly everywhere you can shop, especially when it comes to consumer tech. We’ve been tracking down the best Black Friday Sony deals for a few weeks now and were delighted to stumble on this fantastic offer today. For a limited time, when you purchase the Sony WH-1000XM4 Noise Cancelling Headphones on Amazon, you’ll only pay $200. At full price, these headphones sell for $350. We actually reviewed these cans a few years ago, and our AV expert had this to say: “Same price, even better features. Sony’s WH-1000XM4 are what perfect looks like.”

Why you should buy the Sony WH-1000XM4

From one industry publication to the next, the Sony XM4 headphones have collected a ridiculous amount of laurels for just about every essential over-ear criterium, including comfort, sound quality, noise canceling, and battery life (up to 30 hours on a full charge). Even with the XM5 headphones being out for a couple of years now, we still know folks who put the XM4 above Sony’s latest flagship.

Call quality isn’t typically a strong suit for any pair of headphones or earbuds, and the Sony XM4s even manage to do that well! And if you’re not a fan of the default sound profile, you’ll be able to change presets or create a custom EQ in the Sony Sound Connect app (for iOS and Android devices).

It’s hard to say how long this discount is going to stick around, but it’s one of the best prices for the XM4s we’ve ever seen. Save $150 when you purchase these Sony cans on Amazon, and be sure to take a look at our lists of the best Amazon deals, Best Buy deals, and Walmart deals. We also have a complete list of Black Friday headphone deals.

For those who are on the hunt for OLED TV deals, it rarely gets better than this -- the 65-inch Sony Bravia XR A80L 4K OLED TV, which is originally priced at $2,200, is down to $1,500 from Best Buy. That's $700 in savings on an excellent display for any living room or bedroom, but we're not sure how long the offer will remain available. If you think this is the screen upgrade that you've been waiting for, we highly recommend completing your purchase as soon as you can because the discount may end at any moment.

These are possible with Sony's Cognitive Processor XR, which processes and remasters thousands of on-screen elements instantly. The OLED TV runs on the Google TV platform, which not only grants access to all of the popular streaming services, but also enables voice commands through Google Assistant.

My favorite headphones are $50 off right now — you need them

Right now, one of the best headphone deals comes from Crutchfield. Today, you can buy the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones for $50 off, meaning you pay $298 instead of $348. The headphones are my personal favorite, doing a fantastic job of making whatever I listen to sound great and blocking out surrounding noises wonderfully. If that sounds like something you want in your life (you really do), read on for more information on why these are must have headphones.

Why you should buy the Sony WH-1000XM4
Sensible potential buyers no doubt head over to see what we rank as the best headphones. If that’s you, you’ll notice the Sony WH-1000XM4 aren’t there any more. They used to be, until the WH-1000XM5 came out and replaced them. I bought the WH-1000XM4 after the newer model came out because the price difference and some subtle changes meant that it simply made more sense to go slightly older. We have a full comparison between the Sony WH-1000XM5 and XM4, but what it boils down to is that the XM5 are a little lighter but they don’t fold up like the XM4, which would have been annoying when I was on a recent flight and trying to squeeze everything into my carry-on.
