What's so special about the anniversary headphones? Well, rather than the mostly plastic build of typical headphones, the Collexion headphones feature a stainless steel and vegan leather chassis with metal buttons and on-ear controls. Sony really prioritized quality and comfort with these babies, as well as sound.

The Collexion headphones include a bespoke driver system that allows for more clarity and better high-frequency range. They also have a V3 integrated audio processor on board, which helps power an AI scale enhancement feature. Ironically, the battery life and noise cancellation are slightly less impressive compared to the XM6s.

As Mashable's Bethany Allard states, "Sony enthusiasts, folks who love a luxury look, and those who prioritize comfort above all else are the target audience for this Sony release." If that's you, and you've been waiting to grab these high-end headphones, I recommend grabbing them at Target and saving $50. Every bit counts.
