Grab the Dolby Dimensions wireless headphones for $200 less after Prime Day

Dolby is synonymous with audio excellence. The company has been making technologies centered on refining the auditory experience in entertainment media and people automatically associate the brand with supremacy — from theater audio systems to consumer electronic devices.

Now the company is making its first self-branded product in the form the Dolby Dimensions wireless headphones and as expected, it delivers the goods when it comes to sonic performance. You can get the Dimensions on Amazon as a Prime Day deal for $399 — $200 less than its normal retail price of $600. Hurry because this deal won’t last long.

The Dolby Dimensions wireless headphones are filled with unique features you wouldn’t normally find in your ordinary wireless headphones. For starters, these headphones are specially designed for home use. Unlike the best from Sony or Bose, the Dimensions don’t fold up nor have the longest battery life. What it lacks in those aspects it more than makes up in other ways. It’s capable of head tracking, so audio will sound like it’s coming from a fixed location, like a TV screen. This means that even when you’re fully immersed if you hear someone ring the doorbell or knock on the door, you can turn your head and know it’s not coming from where you’re watching.

Another advanced feature that this headphone has is the ability to save up to eight pairings and quickly toggle between connected devices easily. Even with multiple devices paired, you can seamlessly switch between them with zero glitches.

Probably the most significant of its features is the LifeMix system. This technology allows you to listen to your music or video while still hearing your surroundings. Using multiple microphones found on the headphones’ earcups, the Dimension mixes environment noises with the content that you’re listening to. You can adjust the Dimensions to operate at its full-noise cancellation capacity or boost outside noises. This way even if you’re listening on something on full blast, you can still have a conversation with someone without having to remove your headphones.

Although it doesn’t operate with the famous Dolby Atmos surround sound, Dolby claims that the Dimensions replicate the technology on a much smaller package. Using the headphones will let you hear subtle sound nuances like doors creaking or footsteps on a staircase. Dolby did help invent impressive sound, so when it comes to performance the Dimensions has it covered.

The Dimensions are extremely light at only 330 grams, which comes to a surprise since it’s a huge over-ear headphone. In fact, they’re the most comfortable pair we’ve ever tested. Wearing them over long periods of time won’t hurt your ears. It is covered with quality leather-like material from its earcups to its headband, and the earcups’ padding adjusts to your ear shape for comfort.

For nearly $400, the Dolby Dimensions wireless headphones are admittedly quite pricey. If it’s something affordable that you’re looking for, take a look at this page for cheaper headphones.

This Dell 27-inch monitor is $200 in its Memorial Day sale
The Dell 27-inch QHD monitor placed on a desk while someone sits nearby using the computer.

While you may know Dell as the company that owns Alienware, one of the best laptop brands on the market, Dell itself actually does a lot of different types of gear. For example, it has a wide range of excellent monitors, but if you're looking for something with good specs and price, this Dell 27 Monitor is a solid option. Even better, there is an excellent early Memorial Day sale on it from Dell that brings it down to $200 rather than the usual $220 it goes for. While that isn't a huge discount, constituting only $20, it was already a pretty good price before the discount, so this is just a cherry on top.

Why you should buy the Dell 27 Monitor
As the name might imply, the Dell 27 Monitor comes with a 27-inch screen, and it runs a 2560 x 1440 resolution, which is actually perfect for this screen size since a 4K resolution tends to be wasted for anything smaller than 32 inches. Interestingly, it has a base refresh rate of 100Hz, which makes it an excellent choice for gaming, especially since the majority of GPUs can't really push more than that at 2k. So, if you have something like an RTX 4070 or equivalent, you'll be able to utilize the card fully, and if you have a worse GPU, then you'll still have the option to either prioritize graphical settings or refresh rate.

Amazon Prime Day 2024: Amazon confirms the shopping holiday for July
Prime Day graphic with multiple products.

Amazon has confirmed another Prime Day for July 2024. Exact dates for Prime Day 2024 have not been announced yet. This year marks the tenth anniversary of Amazon's massive shopping holiday.

After ten years of Prime Day, this confirmation might seem a little obvious, like confirming that Halloween will happen again this year. But the dates for Prime Day shift slightly every year, and sometimes Amazon announces a second Prime Day in the fall. Some recent Prime Days have taken place in late June, so this announcement confirms a later-than-usual date. It's likely that we won't know the exact Prime Day 2024 date until a few weeks before it starts, perhaps in mid June.
