'Wednesday' star Jenna Ortega can't live without these headphones — and they're on sale now on Amazon
Looking for a new pair of headphones for the holidays? Jenna Ortega has a recommendation.
"I'm notorious for having headphones on at all times," shared the 'Wednesday' star during an interview with WhoWhatWear. "I have these sweet, sweet headphones that have the best sound in the world."
Ortega revealed that her go-to headphones are the Sony WH-1000XM4 on-ear headphones. She also went on to praise the headphones' noise-canceling abilities saying that she "can't hear anything else" while wearing them.
The updated model, the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones, are currently on sale during Amazon's Very Merry deals sale.

Apple AirPods Pro 2
Apple AirPods Pro 2 earbuds offer 30 hours of listening time with the included charging case. They have an upgraded wireless chip for improved audio functionality, a new low distortion driver for clearer audio and improved active noise cancellation. The second generation Apple AirPods Pro provide truly custom sound: You can use your iPhone's camera to analyze your unique ear anatomy and find the perfect audio settings for you.
The design of the Apple AirPods Pro 2 is fairly similar to the previous generation, but Apple has introduced touch control to the AirPods 2 to help users more seamlessly control their AirPods. Users will also get a new extra-small tip with their AirPods. The case did get a notable design upgrade with a new lanyard loop and a built-in speaker to help you find your lost AirPods case.

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II
Bose products are known for their excellent sound quality, and the new-for-2022 Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II are no exception. They claim to offer the world's best active noise cancellation and have a new CustomTune technology that auto-adjusts music to your ears' liking. They also have an "aware mode" that pauses noise cancellation for when you need to hear your surroundings.
If you disliked how bulky the original Bose QuietComfort Earbuds felt, there's good news: The QuietComfort Earbuds II are one-third smaller than their predecessor. They're water- and sweat-resistant, too, so you can wear them to the gym.
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II offer six hours of battery life in a single charge, and come with a charging case that holds three additional charges (24 hours of battery life in total). You can control music, answer calls and adjust the volume by simply tapping your earbuds instead of having to use your phone.
