It's no secret that Sony headphones offer industry-leading noise cancellation. Even on midrange models, the ANC is amazing. Enter the Sony WH-CH720N, the lightweight and more affordable cousin of the WH-1000 model. Now you can get a pair of these for under $85, thanks to Amazon Prime Day.

Let's talk about the headphones first. The WH-CH720N are extremely lightweight for over-ear headphones, clocking in at just 192 grams. That's almost half the weight of a pair of AirPods Max headphones.

The Sony WH-CH720N features active noise cancellation, and granted, it might not be on the level of the 1000 series, but it's still very good.

The sound quality is great, thanks to the Sony's integrated V1 audio chip. You also get an adaptive sound mode that automatically adjusts the sound characteristics depending on how loud your surroundings are.

The headphones feature voice and touch controls to seamlessly summon the preferred voice assistant or AI agent, as they're now called. The beamforming microphones pick up your voice clearly, so these are great during calls as well.

And they support Sony's great audio upscaling technology, DSEE. The battery life is also great with up to 35 hours on a single charge. Finally, you can get these in black, pink, and white. Now for the real banger: the price!

Normally, these headphones retail for $179.99, which is a fair price for what they offer. Now, just for Prime Day, you can get a pair with a 54% discount. Yep, more than half down. This brings the price of the Sony WH-CH720N to under $85, and that's a real steal.
