    Crazy cheap! Great find OP.

  • +1

    Wow dats cheap - and here I thought 380 via tggc back in the day was a good deal

  • +7

    And people selling second hand at $400 lol

    • -1

      More like $300-350. Can get new for $400.
      Sold mine for $300 got the momentum 4 for $260.

      This deal may be over by the time people sign up and get approved but no doubt be plenty of deals.

      • +1

        well even 350 is too much for the second hand most sellers are delusional

        • Yes that's why they prob don't sell quickly, but understandable if people paid $500+.

          • @G-rig: just found local seller with around B-C grade condition, lots of scuffs, 2 years usage, asking for 250 lol

            • +1

              @McMaferMur: Probably alright but who wants that condition
              I paid $405 Oct 2022, then price protected for $350 JB pricing error.

              Not everyone has an ABN and business account but at $385 I'd get new (or get momentum 4 for $100 less.

    How ? Use the Amazon Business EOFY promo to take an extra $100 off, bringing them down to $285.79! ?? I see 385 all the way till final checkout !

    • Did you find a get around? Same issue for me. This is meant to be my first business order too but i see 385 all the way to checkout

      • -1

        Did you both read the terms here: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/910181

        Specifically:

        This is an invitation-only offer. Promotion only applies to customers who receive this promotional offer from Amazon Business.

        Did you both receive the offer? This is targeted by the looks of it.

        • +1

          Strangely I signed up with a new email again under same abn and soon as I registered got email saying enabled 30 percent. Checked out at 285

  • +28

    I dont feel the fact that you have to be a new business user should count as a deal

    • +7

      Yep, should be same as cashback deals.
      Price in the op should be the regular price and cashback or Amazon business discount is an extra.

      • +1

        You could say the same about any deal where membership is required

    • +4

      Agreed signup bonus should not be considered because then any product on the site is probably a deal. Maybe a deal has to be repeatable to be a deal.

      • +1

        I said that about Aliexpress but got negged to oblivion.

  • Made me wonder whats their margin actually? This is great price!!

  • +3

    Srill think the momentums are better

    • -1

      why?

      • +1

        Double battery life, bass is better imo

  • +5

    id rather xm4

  • +1

    Have to wait for verification damn

  • +3

    @scotty

    Is it possible to create a separate Amazon Business store listing in Ozbargain so I can ignore Amazon Business deals?

  • +1

    what are some other good things to buy via this buisness discount?

  • -1

    the black one price increased to $445

    • +1

      Not on the business store

  • +1

    Do I need an active ABN for this?

  • Can I put a random ABN number ?

    • I don't know.

      • I want to know…

    • +1

      No, they literally verify the information you provide them.

  • -5

    Well it is now the superseded model, and arguably no better (probably worse) than the XM4 it replaced. These things probably cost a cool fiddy bucks to produce anyway.

    • the xm6 is 600$, you aren't going to get the 5 for much under 400$ without a crazy deal.

      This is a great price if u happen to have a abn

      • What if we don't have an abn…can we just use any old abn?

        • Why don’t you try and let us know

        • +1

          Takes no time to make one.

          • @G-rig: you made an abn just for this?

            • @9hundred: No. Already got some for $350 ages ago and sold.
              Not sure if my ABN still active or not.

    • The XM5 is about 15% better than the XM4, look at the reviews. So it's not worth people usually upgrading unless they got for a great deal and sold lightly used XM4. Of course people that own XM4 and XM3 will say they are the best.

      The XM6 are meant to be pretty good but obviously not worth paying the high price for anything as soon as it is released.

    • +1

      I wouldn't say it's worse, but it does make a few changes from the XM4 that some people didn't like.

      1. Does not fold anymore
      2. The automatic ANC thing
      3. Hinge mechanism is allegedly a bit prone to failure

      It did make a few improvements in other areas though.

      1. Switched the feedforward and feedback microphones to a somewhat more reliable and easier to replace design. (These were prone to fail on the XM4 depending on the storage/usage environment)
      2. I think these have LC3 support
      3. Number is biggerer.

      I believe they iterated on and reinforced the hinge (and they fold again) in the XM6, but the current RRP is an absolute scam.

      • -2

        XM4's are still king!

      • +1

        Depends what form factor U like, people say 4s are better if you have 4s. The XM5 sound a more natural, microphones work better for calls, they are lighter and more comfortable. Probably only 15% better. The XM4 people couldn't even hear me on phone calls so if you're using that it's a lot better.

        They fold flat instead of in a ball, just use the case they comes with it. I reckon people that like 4s throw them around and in bag without the case, I'll admit they seem more durable.

  • +3

    I have these, and don't particularly like them. Much prefer Bose and Apple headphones.

    • i have bose but the clamp is too weak, and also it doesnt have auto pause sensor

  • -1

    If you have old xm3 with receipt, you can nego with sony to have this price

    • +3

      Please tell us more.

      • And also share xm3 receipt ….thanks

      • Probably by claiming the XM3 are faulty. Sony are known to discount a new product instead of repairing or replacing the original if it has a fault. It’s a genius move for Sony, rather than attempt to comply with Australian Consumer Law and consumer guarantees, they simply offer a token discount. Bose don’t scam their own customers like that and will happily replace faulty products https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/789228

  • compared with Bose quietcomfort ultra…which one has. better quality sound?

  • +4

    I would not bother with the XM5s, they have a problem with the hinge breaking/snapping. You are much better off with an XM3/XM4 of the previous design or the newest XM6 that has a redesigned hinge.

    Not worth getting a XM5 that will break whenever.

    • +1

      I've had 2 pairs break because of the stupid hinge.

    • -2

      I don't know.. Has yours broken? Has anyone's on here broken? Mostly people parroting that from the internet.

      Depends if you look after your stuff in general or just throw them in your bag loose. Use the case that comes with them, never had an issue. I prefer the comfort and weight vs XM4, and they are two models old now.

      • If enough people are reporting issues, I am inclined to take them seriously rather than close my eyes and sing lalala.

        If people are willing to risk it, sure go ahead. Just don't be surprised when it does break.

        • Never hear of people happy with products is the point. Always hear a few neggers, goes for anything.

  • +9

    Personally I'm looking at getting the WH1000XM4 - $281 comes down to 197 with the discount

    • Damn hope my verification comes through in time for these

  • Anyone with xm4 or xm5, use them in the office, zoom call, with office noise at background people talking loud etc, and your audience will only hear your voice, clear?

    • +2

      xm4 has trash mic btw

    • xm5 has a very high Noise Handling rating on rtings https://www.rtings.com/headphones/reviews/sony/wh-1000xm5-wi… (one of the best without a boom mic) - no review on xm6 yet

    • +1

      XM5 mic and noise isolation is much better than the XM4s. Use mine all the time in busy offices for work calls.

      I think the only thing people have complained about is me talking too loud as you're wearing noise cancelling headphones so can't hear your own voice as you would normally or using open backs.

      Can't recommend them enough for work.

      • Thanks now to find an abn

  • +2

    Just got verified within a few hours and got the xm4s for $197. Thanks op.

  • Can you use gift cards just like at personal amazon?

  • Beware the hinge! I've had to repair mine once already. Really good headphones otherwise.

  • I signed up 2 accounts and got verified but none of it have discount at check out…

    • i can see the discount text under the price on the product page

  • How do you get the price of $385.79 before the $100 coupon ? The lowest I can get it after the $100 coupon is $322.75. Business account successfully activated. What am I missing ?

    • +1

      on the product page I had to scroll down further to see other items and there it was mixed in with other headphones at the headline price. I think its to do with who ships it

      • you are correct, thanks! found another one cheaper by scrolling down the page.

    • Can take upto 2 days for the EOFY code to apply (will then automatically apply at checkout). I have the same issue.

  • -1

    Do we need to sign up for Business prime for the offer?

  • Apparently I have to wait up to 2 days after approval for the EOFY code to be available.

    Legend thanks for sharing. Solid deal

  • +1

    Signed up and got everything instantly

  • I accidentally bought the black but wanted the white. if anyone wants to swap, please contact me. I'll even pay an extra $30. I called amazon and they said they can't re-apply the 30% off promotion if I cancel the black and reorder the white.

      • yes, silver! pink would be amazing but I'm not willing to pay $100 pink tax >_<

    I also cant find where the live chat is

    • Did you upload the required documents?

  • +1

    I got them, thanks OP. Amazing headphones, my only complaint is the pads are a bit thin so your ear touches the inner wall

  • +2

    BTW folks, this post suggests some EQ settings which seems to be excellent.
