What we like about the Apple AirPods 4

So the Apple AirPods 4 are essentially a more affordable alternative to the AirPods Pro 2, which come in at around $250 at full price. They feature better audio and call quality than previous generations, largely due to the new and improved H2 chip.

This particular model has active noise-cancellation, plus a load of other clever features that reduce you having to remove these to speak with someone, or hear what’s going on around you. They’re also pretty great when it comes to battery life too.

  • Comfort redesign: Apple has actually redesigned these to make them far more comfortable than before. Everything form a shorter stem, quick-press controls, and a more refined contour make these some of Apple’s best yet.
  • Easy voice control: You can just say “Siri” or “Hey Siri” and you’ll be able to do practically anything hands-free.
  • Impressive battery-life: 4 hours of listening on a single charge with ANC enabled, and up to 20 hours with the case.
  • IP54 rating: This is a pretty high rating for dust and water resistance. More than enough for you to use them with confidence when working out or a variety of lighter weather elements.

Who’s this deal for and should you buy them now?

So, for those of you looking for a more affordable alternative to the AirPods Pro 2, this deal is a good way to go. However, you may be interested to know that the AirPods Pro 2 are actually on sale right now for around $20 more on Amazon, which could be tempting if you’re looking for some of the best Apple has to offer.

As for timings, as you can see from the graph above, it’s back a its lowest price of the year, which does seem to be a fairly frequent occurrence. I think it’s likely we’ll see them drop again in the coming months, but I’d say it’s still a great time to go for it.
