If you're looking to get some of our favorite wireless earbuds, and you happen to be an Apple fan, then you'll probably want to get the Apple AirPods 4. They're a fair bit cheaper than the also excellent AirPods Pro 2, but for a substantially lower price. Well, thanks to an excellent deal on Amazon right now, you can grab the normal version of these earbuds for just under $100 or go for the active noise canceling version for $149. This is a return to the lowest price the standard version of earbuds has ever been at, so act fast to avoid missing out.
The Apple AirPods 4 earbuds have the same brilliant H2 chip that's found in the AirPods Pro 2, which provides better all-around sound quality. We also like their more compact design, superb voice-calling performance and personalization when it comes to spatial audio. On top of this, the case has wireless charging and a speaker that works with Apple's Find My tracking service.

"With a slightly smaller design, improved sound and Apple's powerful H2 chip features, the Apple AirPods 4 are a worthy upgrade," said CNET audio expert David Carnoy in his review. "But what really makes them special is the noise canceling in the step-up ANC model." This verdict was made when the price was $179, making it a true bargain at $149.

Why this deal matters
AirPods deals pop up from time to time, but finding all-time low prices on Apple gear outside of major shopping events like Black Friday or Prime Day is rare. Add to that the fact that the Apple AirPods 4 are still fairly new, and this deal stands out as particularly notable. This discount of 22% puts the base model of these earbuds at an all-time low price, and the ANC version at just $10 above the record low.
