Apple AirPods 4 Wireless Earbuds are down to $99.00, which is a pretty good deal if you’ve been waiting to upgrade your earbuds or just want something that works smoothly with your iPhone. You get Bluetooth headphones with personalized spatial audio, a USB-C charging case, and the newer H2 chip, so you’re not buying some old leftover model. At this price, you’re getting the kind of features you usually see in much more expensive earbuds, but without paying that higher number. If you already use other Apple devices, these will feel familiar and simple from the first time you open the case.
One big reason to grab these is the way they connect and work with your iPhone. Setup is quick: you open the case near your phone, tap a popup, and you’re done. After that, they switch between your Apple devices without you needing to mess with Bluetooth menus all the time. If you watch a lot of shows or movies on your phone or tablet, the personalized spatial audio can make it feel like the sound is coming from around you instead of just stuck in each ear. You can set it up so the sound matches your ears and head shape, which gives you cleaner voices and better direction on where each sound is coming from when you’re watching a movie or listening to music with a lot going on.
Battery life is another big selling point here. With up to 30 hours of total listening time when you include the charging case, you can get through most of the week if you only use them during commutes, at the gym, or while working. Even if you listen a lot, the case makes it easy to top up during a break or while you’re at your desk. Since the case charges with USB-C, you can use the same kind of cable as many newer phones, laptops, and tablets, so you don’t have to carry a special cord just for these. If you hate worrying about dead earbuds right when you need them, this kind of battery setup helps cut down on that headache.
If you like to run, work out, or just walk around outside, the sweat and water resistance is a big plus. You don’t have to baby them in light rain or during a tough workout. The H2 chip also helps with faster pairing and steady connection, so your music or podcast stays clear instead of cutting out when you put your phone in a pocket or bag. For phone calls, the microphones are tuned for clear voice pickup, so people can hear you without you needing to shout. At $99.00, these AirPods 4 wireless earbuds hit a nice mix of sound quality, smart features, easy setup, and long battery life, which makes them a solid buy if you live in the Apple world and want earbuds that just work without a lot of hassle.
