Apple AirPods 4 Just Hit Their Lowest Price Ever Ahead of Labor Day
In the world of wireless earbuds, Apple AirPods are in a league of their own. That's why it's a big deal that ahead of Labor Day, Amazon just dropped the price on its most popular model, the AirPods 4 to only $89. We've only seen Amazon offer this price once before, during Prime Day in July this year.
Perhaps you haven't hopped on the AirPod train yet, or maybe you lost one and have been bracing yourself to get a new pair. We've already waxed poetic about the AirPod 4s being the best AirPods yet, but here's a quick refresher on the nitty-gritty: To understand why the AirPod 4 deal is so good, let's get into the details: At first glance these look very similar to the OG AirPods with a sleek white design, but they are more contoured and have a shorter stem. Inside, there are the quick-press controls for music or calls alongside an updated H2 chip that reduces background noise to isolate voices in loud areas.
The new tech also changes the way you interact with Siri. Per usual, you can still activate Siri using voice commands, but the upgrade is that you can respond to Siri with a yes or no head nod. You can also share songs by tapping with another pair of AirPods. The case has been slimmed down, which may not be as easy to fish for if you tend to toss them into a bag.
The AirPod 4 also upgraded the OGs with adaptive EQ tech that automatically tunes your content—whether it's a podcast or a nighttime playlist—based on the sounds around you. While the battery life on one charge is only roughly five hours, we all keep them in the charging case anyway, which gives you 30 hours of listening—updated from 24 hours on previous models.
And, we must not forget that they're both sweat- and water-resistant, making them a great pair of workout headphones accessory for getting your grind on, or just for rainy days.
The 30 percent off discount is happening now, but there's no word on when they'll go back to regular price. It's not hard to find an older AirPod version at a discount, typically around $100, so this new version coming in at just under that is a steal.
