This Amazon deal brings the basic AirPods 4 down to $115. Our AirPods 4 review noted that the new design fits a wider range of ear sizes, an advantage over the previous generation. <\/p>\n
AirPods 4 may not be as cheap or as small as AirPods 2, but they sound better and have more features. Note that this is a version outside<\/em> active noise cancellation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Apple’s AirPods 4 with ANC are now discounted by $23, bringing them down to just $156. With active noise cancellation, they are ready to focus on work, during travel or other important activities. The powerful H2 chip makes it easy to turn on ANC in transparent mode whenever you need to stay alert. With a battery life of up to 4 hours on a single charge and an additional 20 hours when you take your case, these earbuds are perfect for long-distance travel plans and can tackle work meetings.<\/p>\n
These received rave reviews from our audio expert David Carnoy, who called the noise cancellation “a game changer.” This offers much of what you expect from AirPods Pro 2, with an open earbud design. Additionally, Carnoy noted that these were “the first open-ended pieces that I’ve tried to do active noise canceling that actually works.” If that combination is what you need, look no further.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If you’re looking for over-ear headphones, the Beats Solo 4 are a great option. They’re one of our favorite pairs of on-ear headphones this year, with CNET expert David Carnoy praising them for their sound quality, battery life and voice-calling performance. They don’t have active noise cancellation but they do support surround sound if you’re an Apple user. Plus, they deliver 50 hours of listening time per charge. They’re also lightweight at just 217 grams, and thick ear cushions help reduce external noise.<\/p>\n
Note that prices vary by model. The biggest discount right now is on the pink black and gold models. Some are on sale too, but for $150 instead of $120.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Our review of Studio Buds called this a “surprise.” Our reviewer liked all of the buds but noted that “there could have been room for discounts on these Beats.” Considering these are up to $60 off, now is a great time to grab a pair.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Perfect for workouts, phone calls or listening to your favorite podcast on the commute. And they’re only $40 right now, making them high-quality earbuds without the high price tag.<\/p>\n

The most consistent savings come during major shopping events like Black Friday, Cyber \u200b\u200bMonday and Amazon Prime Day.

Apple’s wireless audio lineup includes five AirPods models, and the right choice depends on your priorities. If you prefer an open-ear design, the AirPods 4 are a solid option. Third-generation AirPods are still available, but since they’re more expensive than the latest generation, they’re worth considering at a steep discount.<\/p>\n
If you prefer noise canceling capabilities, you can choose between the built-in AirPods Pro 3, AirPods Max or the upgraded AirPods 4 with ANC. Both AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods 4 feature Apple’s latest H2 chip, which supports lossless audio, something the more expensive AirPods Max surprisingly lacks. All current models of AirPods support Apple’s native audio features.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n
The short answer is, no. Surround sound with head tracking for movies and TV brings the same experience to all supported AirPods. While AirPods Max offer the best sound quality overall, the virtual surround effect is consistent throughout the system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Although some models are better suited than others, the second-generation AirPods Pro, for example, won the top spot in our list of the best headphones for workouts, thanks to their lightweight design, excellent noise cancellation and IP54 weather resistance rating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
