The Dyson OnTrac Amazon deal has dropped the brand’s active noise-cancelling headphones to $249 as of July 28, according to Amazon pricing cited by Mashable. The headphones are usually listed at $499, putting the current cut at $250, or 50% off.
That is the clean money detail: half off for Dyson’s over-ear headphones, a product that sits outside the company’s better-known vacuum and hair-care lane. The deal is live at Amazon, according to the retail listing referenced by Mashable.
How much are Dyson OnTrac headphones at Amazon?
Amazon has the Dyson OnTrac active noise-cancelling headphones at $249, down from a regular price of $499, according to Mashable. That makes the listed savings $250.
The OnTrac model is billed as active noise-cancelling, meaning its headline feature is built around reducing outside sound while users listen to music, take calls or work in noisy places. Mashable said the headphones include noise-cancellation options and described them as capable of cutting down outside noise in everyday use.
What reviewers said about the sound
Mashable reviewer Timothy Beck Werth gave the headphones strong marks for audio quality in his review. He described the listening experience as among the best he has had, according to Mashable.
Werth also tested the noise-cancelling performance during a call. He said the person on the other end could tell he was using headphones, but could barely hear a train passing nearby, according to his review.
That call test is the most concrete performance note attached to the deal: the headphones did not hide the fact that he was on a headset, but they did cut down background train noise enough that it was barely audible to the other caller, Werth reported.
