Here’s a little secret about noise-cancelling earbuds: You don’t have to spend your entire paycheck just to get a reliable pair.
From commutes to workouts, more and more wireless buds have become seriously affordable over the last few years, and they’re just as solid as the big-name brands when it comes to playing your music or making calls. Case in point: We found a massive discount on a pair of active noise-cancelling earbuds that gets you a pair for under $40 on Amazon.

TOZO NC2 Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Wireless Earbuds
Originally priced at nearly $80 when it first came out, Tozo’s Bluetooth NC2 Hybrid earbuds are marked down right now to just $39. Bonus: You can clip a coupon before checking out to save an additional 20 percent off.
These slim and sleek buds are some of the best cheap noise-cancelling earbuds online, delivering a ton of features and value for their small price point.
The Tozo earbuds feature active noise-cancelling tech, including a few built-in microphones to ultimately help block out the external sounds around you by up to 35 decibels. And like some of our favorite Bluetooth earbuds, this pair comes with a convenient transparency mode, meaning you can keep them in your ear and still, say, order your cold brew and hear the barista’s questions at the same time.
We’re big fans of earbuds that pair great sound with hands-free functionality, and these aren’t any different. When you remove a bud, your music instantly pauses. Put it back in your ear, and thanks to the sensors inside, they can detect when it’s time to start your tunes up again.
The best affordable earbuds with active noise cancellation should last you most of the work day, and through multiple workouts, and these deliver an impressive battery. The Tozos can play tunes for up to ten hours on a charge, and another 32 hours with their charging case. Mix that long-lasting battery runtime with their IPX6 waterproof rating and bass-heavy sound, and you have a go-to pair of workout-friendly buds — all for under $40 (at least, for today).
Currently the earbuds have a 4.2-star rating out of 5 stars on Amazon, with almost 30,000 verified reviews online. Amazon says more than 500 people have bought these buds in the last few weeks alone. Grab these cheap noise-cancelling earbuds now for $39.99 here.
