In the weekly promotion Sony is offering as part of its Labor Day discounts, WH-1000XM5 headphones are selling for $198 at Amazon and Best Buy. The model, which launched at $399.99, is usually available for around $250. The $50 discount brings the headphones back to their Prime Day 2026 price from late June; this time, however, a Prime subscription is not required to take advantage of the deal. The WH-1000XM5, released in 2022, is still considered a good option thanks to its strong sound quality and active noise cancellation features. Although XM6, released in 2025, offers some improvements, the XM5 is said to retain its value. Sony may reportedly put the XM4, which it launched in 2020 at $349.99, back on sale at a more affordable price.
Nintendo Switch 2 can be purchased today from Amazon and Best Buy at its original price of $449.99. The price of the base model will rise to $499.99 starting September 1, while bundles launching in the fall will be priced at $549.99. Due to price increases for Nintendo accessories, it is recommended to buy the console before the increase. Discounted Nintendo gift cards are also available at Newegg and Costco.
The price of the Matic robot vacuum will rise from $1,245 to $1,495 on September 9. Purchases will include a one-year supply of replacement bags worth $96, and the return period has also been extended from 60 days to six months. Discounts on white and black Sonos products, particularly home theater equipment, are continuing at Best Buy.
