AirPods, Beats, Sony sales: The best headphone deals ahead of March madness

• Current price: $130
• Original price: $150

If you always need some sort of sound to think clearly or work effectively, Soundcore's latest headset from its Liberty line is the best go-to. With dual device connectivity, you can seamlessly switch from listening to a podcast on your phone to a Zoom meeting via laptop without going through a pair and connect process every time. 

Speaking of chatting with headphones in, out of all the headphones I own, these have the best microphone quality over Zoom and on regular phone calls. 

As if they're not already some of the most convenient earbuds, they're also super comfortable, and even though they have more of a "hang on the ear" than in-canal fit, they stay in your ears without a lot of pressure. If you're looking for a discounted, but just as good version of AirPods, I can't recommend this pair from Soundcore enough.

These aren't the trending AirPods Max, but they still have a sleek, over-ear futuristic look without being too clunky. Plus, they have a 30-hour battery life and are comfortable enough to wear all day -- from desk to gym. Upon purchase you'll also get a carrying case that makes them easy to transport or throw into a bag. Perfect for a busy lifestyle and trendy, I'd want to take advantage of this deal, too.

As someone who is picky about which earbuds they use to exercise with, these Bose buds are worth the money and the hype. With an in-canal fit and soft silicone tip, the buds don't fall out of your ear no matter how much you sweat. Plus, they won't give you uncomfortable pressure build-up midway through your workout.

Of course, Bose doesn't disappoint with their renowned sound quality. The audio is clear even when you're running against strong winds. Bottom line: if you're in the market for some quality workout earbuds, I recommend grabbing these while they're on sale.

The Beats Studio 3 wireless over-hear headphones are some of the most reliable cans on the market. Easy to pair via bluetooth with iOS and, yes, even Android devices, you can listen to a podcast, audio book, or music on the go, at the gym, or as you listen during work. Plus, their integration of Apple's W1 chip means you get 22 hours of battery life with ANC (active noise cancellation) switched on, and 44 hours in transparency mode. With a durable build, solid features, and free Apple music for up to 4 months, snagging these at a $116 discount seems like a no-brainer.

These SkullCandy earbuds are tiny but mighty. With a small and comfortable in-ear fit, they still pack in a heavy bass with excellent active noise-cancelling technology. If you have small ears but are a big fan of audio, check these out while they're on sale.

These earbuds are at the top of my list to try. Not only do they have a pebbled, ergonomic, lightweight fit but they're also smart earbuds. With settings that adjust to your environment for the most optimal listening experience, they bring "hands-free" to a whole new level. 

Especially during cold days when I don't want to take my hands out of my pockets or gloves, I'd really appreciate my earbuds knowing what listening mode is best for me. I think it'd be a smart investment to snag these while they're $52 off.
