Wireless listening just got more affordable in time for the holidays. Amazon has slashed the price of the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Plus, which include a wireless charging case, by a whopping $50. That drops your total from $150 to $100, a 33% discount. Shipping is free and you can pick from three gorgeous colors. This beats previous $20-off and $40-off deals we’ve seen earlier in the year and is the lowest price we’ve seen since these earbuds were released. You can bet this sale won’t last forever, and you should order now to ensure you snag a pair in time for the holidays.

You can get 11 hours of music playback on these bad boys, plus 11 more after you place them in the included wireless charging case. The earbuds’ new 2-way dynamic speaker system and boosted driver deliver extraordinary sound with crisp high notes and impressive bass. There’s a woofer and tweeter inside each bud for superior accuracy. And the adaptive 3-microphone system ensures you’re heard loud and clear when making calls as well, blocking out surrounding sounds. To hear what’s around you, you can also turn on Ambient Aware2, which is helpful when you need to listen for flight announcements or have a conversation with your neighbor on your way out the door.

You can pair your Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Plus via Bluetooth in one step, and customize your tap commands to change songs, adjust the volume, and answer calls. And you can adjust the ambient sound level from your smartphone without needing to remove your earbuds. What’s more, you can get an hour of play time in just three minutes of charging, using any Qi-compatible wireless charger or taking power from your Galaxy smartphone. You can find out more details in our Samsung Galaxy Buds+ review.

There are other Samsung Galaxy Bud deals available if you have a different price point in mind, and you can also check out the best true wireless earbuds for an idea of what other brands are available. But if you know the Samsung Galaxy Buds+ Plus are the right choice for your listening needs, you should act fast. Once listed at $150, these earbuds are now down to just $100 in three colors. That’s a 33% discount and the best savings we’ve seen on this product.

Samsung Galaxy smartphones are widely considered among the premier Android phones, but their flagship models are pretty expensive. If you want one, you should take advantage of Amazon's Big Spring Sale, which is offering huge discounts on unlocked versions of these mobile devices.
