Sure, Sony has released the WH-1000XM6, and the even more luxurious The ColleXion headphones, in 2026, but the WH-1000XM5 can still cut HVAC drone and hallway chatter at a lower price. Plus, the earpads are plush enough that you won’t be distracted while you cram for that exam. And it’s $150 less than the current flagship.

We love the Bose QuietComfort Headphones enough to make them a pick in our 2026 back-to-school essentials guide. And we love them even more on sale. Sure, Bose just announced a 2nd Gen., but that’s what helps make the original hit its lowest price of the year. Turn a communal space into a study booth, and the adjustable Quiet and Aware modes let you dial in how much of the room you want to let in.
