UPDATE: Nov. 24, 2023, 11:33 p.m. EST This post has been updated with 20+ of the latest headphone and earbud deals from the first day of Amazon's Black Friday sale.
It should come as a surprise to nobody, but Amazon is already overflowing with deals on the first day of its official Black Friday sale (as are other retailers). Some categories are particularly popping off, like headphones and earbuds.
If these deals are any indication of what's to come in the next week, we're in for one helluva Black Friday season. We're already seeing some models of big-name headphones and earbuds (Bose, Apple, JBL, etc.) at all-time low prices ahead of the big day.
We'll be keeping an eye out for new deals on headphones and earbuds at Amazon as they pop up throughout the course of the sale. But if you see an all-time low deal on a pair you've had your eyes on (like the Bose Headphones 700 below), don't be afraid to grab it before it's gone.
Note: All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Why we like it
Narrowing down a headphones upgrade from so many on-sale options is less overwhelming when you've confirmed that you want to stick with a super premium, super reputable brand like Bose — but also that you want to stick to a budget. There's only one pair of Bose over-ear headphones you can grab for just under $200, and that's the QuietComfort 45s at a record-low price of $199. This classic pair secures top-of-the-line ANC, 20 hours of battery life, and all-day comfort for less than half the price of the AirPods Max.

Best Amazon Black Friday earbud deal
Why we like it
When Mashable's Alex Perry reviewed the Google Pixel Buds Pro last year, he noted that the "hard-hitting bass, fabulous comfort, and the long-awaited inclusion of (extremely effective) ANC," make these extremely good wireless earbuds. His only gripe was the high cost. Fortunately, if you're a Pixel devotee or anyone searching for a solid pair of earbuds this holiday season, you can get the Google Pixel Buds Pro for only $119 ahead of Black Friday — that's 99 cents cheaper than they were on Prime Day 2 last month and their lowest price to date.
