My Favorite Sleeping Headphones Are Currently on Sale for $60.
I’ve been a fan of the Soundcore Sleep A20 headphones since I first tried them on before bed over two years ago. I’ve never encountered headphones that were so comfortable while sleeping on my side. But those headphones lacked one crucial feature: active noise cancellation (ANC). The new Sleep A30 Special headphones fix that and more—and despite being released in January of this year, they’re already heavily discounted. Right now, you can get them for $168.99 (original price: $229.99), their lowest price ever, according to price tracking tools .
As noted in a Mashable review, the Sleep A30 Special are the most popular and arguably the best sleep headphones available right now. They’re designed for sleep in every way: side sleepers can fall asleep without pressure in their ears thanks to the earbuds’ comfortable fit, and thanks to active noise cancellation (ANC), they can now block out more external noise than before.
Battery life isn’t the best, but this new 2026 special edition will get you through the night: with active noise cancellation (ANC) enabled, you can get between eight and ten hours of use, with some variation depending on your settings. There are also some interesting sleep-focused tech and features: the companion app lets you set a music timer to avoid draining the battery after you fall asleep; the earbuds now integrate with the Calm app for meditations and sleep stories; the charging case’s microphones use adaptive snore masking to block out snoring sounds by amplifying white noise; and the app includes an alarm clock and sleep tracking features.
Overall, I highly recommend these headphones to anyone who values quality sleep and doesn’t mind wearing headphones. If active noise cancellation isn’t a priority and you’re looking to save a little money, the Sleep A20 or the refurbished Sleep A30 Special are cheaper options.
