Though Prime Day doesn't kick off officially until July 16, Amazon is releasing early deals in the lead up to the sale, as it has in year's past. You're most likely to see the best and widest selection of headphone and earbud deals come the actual days of Prime Day, but early deals can help save you plenty of cash (and avoid chaos).

Amazon has Engadget’s favorite pair of budget running headphones on sale for 33 percent off. The JLab Go Air Sport surprised us with its combination of affordability, sound quality and battery life.

Shop the best early Amazon Prime Day headphone deals on top-rated JLab earbuds and over-the-ear headphones. Save up to 39% with these best-selling deals.

The Sony ULT Wear headphones are some of the best value headphones we've tried — and they're on sale ahead of Prime Day. Credit: Sony Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication.
