Sony Noise-Canceling Gaming Earbuds Get Big Discount Today Only

If you prefer earbuds over gaming headsets, our favorite pair of wireless gaming earbuds are on sale for a limited time. Both the white-and-black and all-black models of Sony’s Inzone Buds are discounted to $170 (was $200) at Amazon and Best Buy. This deal is only available today, October 29, at Best Buy, so we suspect Amazon’s deal will disappear after today, too.

Made by Sony Electronics–not PlayStation–the Inzone Buds are designed for PC gaming, but they are fully compatible with PS5, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck, Android, and iPhone 15 via the 2.4GHz dongle. They offer more bang for your buck than PlayStation’s Pulse Explore earbuds ($200). Since they’re equipped with the same drivers as the popular WF-1000XM5 earbuds that carry a list price of $300 (on sale for $52 off at Amazon) and implement Sony’s excellent noise-canceling tech, they’re an easy recommendation at full price. PlayStation’s Pulse Explore wireless earbuds do well in the sound department, and while they do a good job isolating noise, they aren’t equipped with true ANC.

The Inzone Buds are the best earbuds we’ve tried in the still-small gaming category, but they aren’t your only solid option. Asus has two different models of its ROG Cetra: the high-end SpeedNova with 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5.3 for $190 (was $200) and the Bluetooth-only ROG Cetra for $80 (was $100). Both support Bluetooth connections on a wider array of devices, including iPhone, Android, Nintendo Switch, and Steam Deck.
