The 🍎 AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) are the latest evolution in 🍎 wireless earbud lineup, combining advanced audio technology with a sleek, open-ear design. Designed for users who want the convenience of AirPods without the in-ear silicone tips, this model introduces ANC for the first time in a non-Pro AirPods variant. The ANC effectively blocks out consistent background noise such as traffic or engine rumble, while the Adaptive Audio feature intelligently adjusts the level of noise cancellation in real time based on your surroundings. Transparency Mode is also included, allowing external sounds to filter through when needed—ideal for staying aware of your environment. A new feature called Conversation Awareness automatically reduces volume and enhances nearby voices when you're speaking to someone, making interactions more natural without needing to remove the earbuds. Powered by 🍎 H2 chip, the AirPods 4 deliver improved sound quality and enable Voice Isolation during calls for clearer conversations. The earbuds support Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, which creates an immersive soundstage for music, movies, and games. Charging is more versatile than ever, with a USB-C port, wireless charging, and compatibility with 🍎 Watch chargers. The case even includes a built-in speaker and Find My integration to help you locate it easily. Battery life is solid, offering up to 4 hours of listening time with ANC enabled and up to 5 hours without it. When combined with the charging case, users can expect up to 20 hours of listening time with ANC and 30 hours without. At $65 the AirPods 4 with ANC provide a compelling middle ground between the basic AirPods and the higher-end AirPods Pro. They’re an excellent choice for users looking for premium features like noise cancellation and Spatial Audio in a more open, comfortable fit.
