The Xperia 1 is the largest of Sony's two Snapdragon 855 mobile powerhouses released this year, and despite a somewhat awkward 21:9 aspect ratio that essentially doomed it from the get-go in head-to-head battles with more conventional flagships made by Samsung or Apple, this is still a pretty good high-end phone all in all.
Unfortunately, the $950 starting price was another key reason why the Xperia 1 didn't stand a chance to turn things around for Sony's long-struggling mobile business. The company tried to sweeten the deal by throwing in free high-quality wireless headphones with pre-orders back in the day, and then Best Buy slashed the price of the handset itself a couple of times with certain strings attached.
It's now Amazon's turn to try to make the extra-tall smartphone more appealing for the masses by running two different "deals of the day" as part of the e-commerce giant's official "countdown" to Black Friday. You have 24 hours to choose between saving a decent 150 bucks on the Liquid Black device sold all by itself or shaving a whopping $400 off the combined regular price of the Sony Xperia 1 and the company's crazy popular WH1000XM3 wireless headphones with state-of-the-art noise cancelling technology.
Case in point, Amazon is currently charging 72 bucks less than usual for both black and silver options, with that particular deal naturally set to last a "limited time" too, but most likely significantly more than just 24 hours.

In both cases, you'll get a 128GB Xperia 1 storage variant enhanced with hands-free Alexa assistance, but fret not, as you don't need an Amazon Prime membership to claim these substantial discounts. Of course, you'll have to take into consideration the WH1000XM3 noise-cancelling wireless headphones are often sold at a special price by themselves as well.
