Best Amazon Big Spring Sale headphone and speaker deals
In our Galaxy Buds 3 Pro review, we said the $250 list price felt a little high. But at $115, these flagship earbuds from Samsung are some of the best money can buy. They offer great noise cancellation and audio quality. The fit is also snug, ensuring your earbuds don't go anywhere, even during a workout. There's no compromise when it comes to microphone quality either.
If you're looking for a pair of noise-canceling headphones, the Beats Studio Pro offers up to 40 hours of battery life, as well as spatial and USB-C lossless audio. With a $170 discount, you're getting a pair at nearly half the price, which is an extraordinary savings.
Claiming the top spot overall, the Sonos Era 100 is absolutely one of the best speakers of 2025 thanks to its impressive sound quality and its support for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, AirPlay, aux and USB-C. It also automatically optimizes the EQ. Plus, it has a built-in mic and Alexa compatibility for hands-free control. Right now, it's at a record-low price.
Let's face it: The premium Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones are pricey, but they also claimed a top spot as one of our overall favorite pairs of 2025. With top-of-the-line noise-canceling and excellent sound quality, solid voice-calling performance and up to 24 hours of playtime per charge, these are a no-brainer if you're willing to splurge. The $80 discount knocks them back down to Black Friday prices.
They're no longer the newest earbuds, but these Beats Studio Buds are still a solid pick -- especially at 34% off. The Plus model does offer some improvements like Apple's H1 chip, ear-detection sensors and spatial audio with head-tracking. This original model is still a great option for those on a budget looking for solid active noise cancelation and sound, but don't necessarily need all the bells and whistles.
Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 are our favorite Android earbuds, in large part because they improve sound and noise cancellation over their predecessor. They also have a more powerful Tensor A1 chip, spatial audio and a battery that lasts up to eight hours with ANC or 12 without. The $50 savings drops these buds back to their 2024 Black Friday price.
The Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker is fully waterproof and dustproof, making it a great choice for hosting parties by the beach or pool. It also has very good sound quality for its size and a strong battery life. Plus, Amazon knocking a third off the price makes it an even better value.
If you're looking for a cheaper smart speaker option, consider the Amazon Echo Pop. This compact device is Amazon's smallest smart speaker and includes Alexa voice assistance to easily change the song or set a reminder. It's a cute speaker for bedrooms and smaller areas, and it's hard to beat the price.

Is Amazon's Big Spring Sale the best time to buy headphones and speakers?
The best time to buy tech like headphones and speakers on Amazon is generally during one of the company's big sales, such as the Big Spring Sale, Prime Day or Black Friday. Now is a great time if you're in the market for a new pair of headphones. If you're looking for AirPods specifically, check out our roundup of the best AirPods deals.
Tariff-related price hikes may be on the horizon, so many are rushing to snag new tech before prices rise. A recent CNET survey found that 38% of shoppers have felt pressure to make purchases before tariffs raise prices. This could mean that prices may be slightly higher during the summer Amazon sales -- Memorial Day and Prime Day -- than during the current Big Spring Sale. If you're looking for the lowest prices possible and have the money to spend now, the Big Spring Sale may be the best time to buy new headphones or a speaker.
