Although Amazon's October Prime Day event has technically ended, it seems that the headphones listings didn't get the memo. A day after the sale concluded, some of the best headphones deals from top brands like Bose, Sony, and Apple are still live. One of our favorite options is actually cheaper, somehow.

Considering that a new pair of headphones — if you prefer the latest and greatest, that is — could cost you $450, we think it's definitely worth taking advantage of these discounts while they're still around.

If you missed out on the two-day Prime Big Deal Days shopping extravaganza, but you're in the market for some new headphones, we've rounded up the best deals still live after the event. Your next shot at price drops this impressive won't be until Black Friday, so weigh your options thoughtfully.

Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 denote an all-time low price.

Why we like it

There's no denying that Sony's latest flagship headphones, the WH-1000XM6s, are impressive. They're our top pick for sound quality amongst all brands of headphones, but even on sale, they're over $400. If you can't fathom dropping that much money on a pair of headphones, the previous generation WH-1000XM5s are super similar. "The WH-1000XM5s retain many series hallmarks, including ANC, battery life, sound, and special features," one of our reviewers noted. The biggest downfall is they don't fold up, though we're certainly willing to overlook that flaw to save $178. The headphones dropped to $298 during Prime Day, but amazingly, they're even cheaper after the event: grab a pair in black for only $250. That's 37% in savings and just one cent away from their best-ever price.

More budget-conscious shoppers who don't require noise cancellation should check out the basic Sony WH-CH520s. You'll still get Sony's audio quality, multipoint connection, hands-free calling, a comfortable and lightweight design, customizable EQ, and a battery life of up to 50 hours. Not to mention they come in fun colors like butter yellow and pastel pink. At only $38, they're an incredible value and the cheapest they've ever been in some shades (a few colors have dropped to $33 previously).
