If you realized you’re still a few gifts short on your Christmas gift list, don’t worry. There’s still time to get gifts under the tree and save yourself some money, especially if you want to gift someone a pair of headphones or earbuds. With ongoing deals from the likes of Sony, JBL, Beats, and others, you’re just a few clicks away from getting a great deal on a gift they’ll love for years.

Best noise-canceling headphone deals

If you know someone who works from home or goes to the gym and would like to tune out the noise around them, a good pair of active noise-canceling (ANC) headphones or earbuds would be great for them.

• Headphones: If you think the person on your list prefers headphones over earbuds, the Sony WH-1000XM4 are about as good a choice as you can make. They’re currently going for their lowest price at $228 ($348), according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history. You can read more about these great headphones from my earlier post.

• Earbuds: Earbuds are better for those on the go. The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II, with active noise-canceling, are currently going for $199 (originally $279). These Bose earbuds are full of features, like swapping seamlessly between the last seven paired devices, but their noise-canceling technology is what makes them stand out. This is also the lowest price these earbuds have been, according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history. You can read the full PCMag review here.

Best headphones for long battery life

Long battery life on a pair of headphones is essential for people who spend long days on campus or at work. 30 hours is typically the standard for what counts as “long battery life,” but you can find many that last longer. If you have someone on your list who appreciates a gadget that will last a long time between charges, these headphones will impress them.

• Headphones: The JBL Live 660NC are over-ear noise-canceling headphones that offer a surprising 50 hours of playtime with ANC turned off and up to 40 hours with ANC on. They also charge pretty quickly, with a 10-minute charge giving them another four hours of playtime. They also have a feature called Ambient Aware, which lets in sounds from their surroundings, allowing the wearer to have a conversation without taking their headphones off. You can get the JBL Live 660NC for $99.95 (originally $199.95) from Amazon. This is the second-lowest price they’ve ever been, according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history.

• Earbuds: If the person on your list prefers earbuds, the JBL Endurance Peak 3 fits the bill as a long-lasting option with 50 hours of nonstop playtime. You get 10 hours from the headphones and 40 hours from the charging case, with a 10-minute charge giving you an hour of playtime. You can get them for $79.95 (originally $99.95), which is the second cheapest price since their release.

Beats headphone sale

Beats is also having a great sale on their headphones through Amazon, and they all arrive before Christmas. One of the best deals is for the Beats Solo3 headphones, which are currently $99.99 (originally $199.95). This matches their Black Friday price, which is the cheapest they’ve ever been, according to Camelcamelcamel’s price history. These headphones give you up to 40 hours of listening time with fast charging (three hours of playtime with a five-minute charge) and have a microphone so you can take calls.
