Apple’s latest AirPods 4 have dropped to just $69, marking their lowest price ever ahead of Black Friday. That’s 47% off their regular asking price of $129, making this the best AirPods sale yet for anyone who doesn’t like ear tips.
The AirPods 4 deliver the familiar convenience Apple fans love, now with an updated, redesigned fit that’s more secure and comfortable than before. Inside, the H2 chip powers features like Personalized Spatial Audio, dynamic head tracking, and Voice Isolation for clearer calls. Pairing and device switching remain as effortless as ever across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
While this base model skips noise cancelation and Transparency Mode, it still offers well-balanced sound and 5 hours of battery life per charge, with up to 30 hours using the USB-C charging case.

“You get just about none of the benefits you do from the airpods 3 pro, but fits perfectly battery is awesome and sound is good”

“The sound was extremely bright in my ears. Way too much emphasis from 8kHz up, clear as day on music but also on voice content. I had to jump into the eq settings (iOS 27) and draw a severe curve, but with only three parameters to tweak it's still not perfect. Otherwise great.”
If you are looking for active noise cancelation, the AirPods 4 with ANC are also on sale for only $99 (a whopping $80 off). They add adaptive noise control, Conversation Awareness, and Apple’s new hearing health tools, offering many of the AirPods Pro’s smartest features at a lower price.
