In a sneaky pre-Black Friday discount, the Apple AirPods 4 have just dropped to a record-low price of $84.99 on Amazon. That’s a massive 34% ($45) saving on their typical $129 retail price.
This is a fantastic deal on the latest-generation standard earbuds released in 2024. It’s the perfect opportunity to grab them at a significant discount, as we’re unlikely to see a larger reduction in the upcoming sales window.
The only thing to note is that this is the version without active noise cancelling—an essential feature if you plan to use the buds for travelling or in noise-heavy environments like the gym.
If you’re just looking for a simple, entry-level pair of AirPods for easy listening and the odd call, though, these are the perfect pickup—especially at this price.
Why the AirPods 4 are a great deal
As we noted in our Apple AirPods 4 review last year, they continue Apple’s dominance by offering a great combination of sound, features, and seamless connectivity for Apple users.
Again, this deal is for the non-ANC version, which is the new entry point to the lineup. You still get the core Apple experience: effortless pairing with your iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac; reliable connectivity; and access to Apple Music’s excellent Spatial Audio.
The more expensive ANC model is a good step up (and the AirPods Pro are even better), but that’s not what this deal is about. This is about getting the newest-generation Apple earbuds for an incredibly low price.
If you don’t need active noise cancellation and just want a hassle-free, great-sounding pair of buds that work reliably with your Apple gear, this $84.99 price is an absolute bargain.
