The Apple Airpods 4 with active noise cancellation are now at their lowest price of $99 ($80 off) at Amazon and Walmart. The AirPods 4 offer upgraded sound quality, wireless charging, and a built-in speaker in the case that rings if you can’t find it. The ANC, while not the best on the market, is pretty good among open design earbuds at blocking noise.
There aren’t many differences between the AirPods 4 with and without ANC. Both deliver the same sound quality, are built with the same H2 chip, and are IP54 dust and water resistant. But while the ANC doesn’t eliminate all ambient sound, it does a surprisingly good job of removing distractions, especially when listening to music or other audio. This higher-end model also comes with transparency mode and Adaptive Audio, which is nice if (like me) you want to hear sirens or shouts of “Look out!” that may suddenly erupt around you.
There are other interesting, if less earth-shaking, features that come with this model of the AirPods 4, such as the ability to nod your head to answer a call. In all, these are very worthy earbuds to consider, especially at this price. Read our review.
