While the launches of the iPhone 16 and Apple Watch Series 10 may have attracted the most attention following Apple’s September unveiling, the AirPods 4 earbuds shouldn’t be ignored. They are major upgrades over the previous model and are available in two versions; one with ANC support and one without. Both models feature a new, more open design, USB-C charging and Apple’s H2 chip with Bluetooth 5.3 support – the same chip found in the AirPods Pro 2.
In his full review of the AirPods 4, CNET’s David Carnoy says that with both AirPods 4 models, “the sound is a little cleaner (improved treble), and you get a little more bass, so there’s a little more depth and fullness.” He also said the high-end AirPods 4 are the first open earbuds he’s tried that have “active noise cancellation that really works.”
If you’re ready to buy the new AirPods 4, we’ve rounded up all the best deals available right now. Read on for everything you need to know about ordering them, as well as all the details and deals on new versions of the high-end AirPods Max earbuds.
