While many welcome the squishy embrace of silicone tips, I long for the days of open earbuds gently cuddling my lugholes. Apple AirPods 4 are something of a throwback to the renowned iPhone earpods minus the annoying wires tangling up, and they’re currently at their lowest price yet thanks to a huge discount.

A standard pair of Apple AirPods 4 buds are currently 22% cheaper on Amazon US, running you less than $100. If you’re married to the idea of active noise cancellation, then you’re looking at 17% off the ANC model at $149.

Packing a powerful H2 chip and an assortment of intelligent features, Apple AirPods 4 make audio and calls sound better than ever.

Being the first major update to AirPods Pro 2 back in 2023, these buds act much like the Pro series, letting you squeeze the stem to control the earbuds. Using this force sensor, you can play, pause, and skip media as you see fit without whipping your iPhone out.

Apple steers the course with a USB-C charging case, which is 10% smaller than its predecessor to make it more portable. This doesn’t come at the sacrifice of battery life, with five hours on a single charge (four hours with ANC) and a further 30 hours of listening time coming from the charging case.

The advanced H2 chip beneath enhances audio performance alongside enabling voice isolation to minimise background noise during calls. It’s a lot like the iPhone’s native isolation, which works wonders in my day-to-day.

It also lets you interact with Siri by shaking your head yes and no to reply to the voice assistant’s questions. After all, erratic head movement is just a touch less strange than talking to yourself.

Although it’s removed the silicone in-ears, the redesign has a refined contour that provides a more natural fit for a wider variety of ear shapes. That said, everyone’s different, so your mileage may vary. Thankfully, Amazon gives you 15 days to decide whether or not you want to keep it or exchange it for a refund/replacement.

If you like the sound of this deal and want to keep an eye out for more discounts, I recommend you follow Club386 on Google News. There, you’ll be one of the first to find the cheapest tech around.
