It’s the weekend, and that means it’s time to round up the week’s best deals. As we anticipate, each weekend (and every day, really) in November brings with it a new round of discounts on popular, big-ticket items, typically at their lowest prices of the year. Today that includes headphones from Sony, Beats, Jabra, and a deal on refurbished AirPods Max.

Further ReadingSonys WH-1000XM5 headphones come with a new design, $50 price hikeSony has two great offers on its latest- and last-generation noise-canceling headphones. The frustratingly-named but high-quality WH-1000XM5 ($348, $400) and WH-1000XM4 ($228, $348) are discounted to match the lowest prices we’ve tracked for either. Since Sony released the latest WH-1000XM5, it continues to sell the previous generation WH-1000XM4 alongside it. When we tested the 5 versus the 4, we found it to improve slightly on just about every aspect of the previous gen headphones. They’re better for phone calls, a bit lighter, and can charge more quickly. They also cant fold up for storage like the 4. These aren’t what we’d call paradigm-shifting leaps, but rather moderate improvements, for the most part. Selling for over $100 less at its current price, the WH-1000XM4 remains a very well-reviewed, capable set of noise-canceling headphones that we couldn’t fault you for picking up instead of the newer WH-1000XM5.

Apple’s AirPods Max are our favorite noise-canceling headphones, though. And if you’re comfortable buying refurbished, they’re currently on discount for $355 ($475) from Woot, shaving off a couple of hundred dollars from the MSRP. Woot’s website states that these headphones have no visual scratches or blemishes and come with a 90-day warranty from Woot.

Elsewhere around the web, we have the first cash discount on the Google Pixel 7 Pro, $300 off a well-optioned 14-inch M1-powered MacBook Pro ($1,599, $1,900), a bunch of iPads, 4K TVs from LG and Sony, and much more. Check the full curated list below.
