You can now grab the CNET's Editor choice winner, the Sony WF-1000XM6, for just $298. That's $32 in savings. Thanks to Amazon Spring sale, this is the lowest price and first discount we've seen on this product.

The Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds are designed for high-end sound and top-tier noise cancellation. It features a new processor that's three times faster than previous versions, according to Sony, blocking out even more background noise while keeping your music clear. For calls, it uses eight microphones and a bone conduction sensor to ensure your voice stays crisp.

When it comes to the build, these earbuds are about 11% slimmer and more ergonomic than the older models, making them more comfortable for long listening sessions. You get roughly 8 hours of battery life with noise-cancellation turned on, and the case bumps that up to 24 hours total. It also handles splashes and sweat just fine, thanks to the IPX4 water resistance rating.

In his review, CNET's expert David Carnoy says, "And while these buds are certainly expensive, they're pretty hard to beat from a performance standpoint across all the key areas, including sound quality, noise canceling and voice-calling, which is why I've awarded them an Editors' Choice."

Why this deal matters

This is a big deal because it's the first time the Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds have gone on sale since they launched earlier this year. It's rare to see a discount on a brand-new flagship product this quickly, making this a great time to grab them if you've been holding out. Plus, the timing is perfect as this deal is part of the Amazon Big Spring Sale. While the official sale starts tomorrow, many of the best tech deals -- like this one -- are already live. Grab it before stock runs out.
