Amazon has never dropped any AirPods this low, no matter the generation. The AirPods 4 are down to a record-breaking $84 from their original $129 price tag, and that’s not something Apple fans see twice. These are the newest generation of Apple’s iconic earbuds, and while they skip the active noise cancellation of the Pro model, they keep everything else that makes AirPods so easy to live with.

Comfort, Style and Smart All Day Sound
The new design now feels far more organic in the ear with a shorter stem and easier contour that helps them remain secure during calls or workouts. They’re perfect for those who don’t like the feel of silicone tips: the open-ear design lets sound breathe without sealing you off from the world around you. Add in a lighter build, refined balance and quick-press controls directly on the stems, and it’s clear these earbuds are meant to be worn all day without fuss.
The real magic happens once they’re paired: Thanks to the new Apple H2 chip, the AirPods 4 launch instantly the moment you flip open the USB-C charging case. That chip doesn’t just speed up connections as it transforms the listening experience. Sound feels more direct and more spacious with the new personalized spatial audio mode, which uses head tracking to create a wraparound effect for music or movies. It’s that “cinema in your head” feeling Apple does better than anyone, and it adjusts automatically to your unique ear shape.
But the H2 chip goes beyond sound: It now powers an advanced voice isolation feature that filters out background noise during calls, and makes your voice sound clear even in traffic or crowded cafés. It’s like having a tiny intelligent equalizer inside each earbud, quietly reshaping sound so you don’t have to raise your voice or repeat yourself. This works seamlessly with Siri commands: you can simply say “Hey Siri” to play a playlist, make a call, or check your calendar, all without touching your phone.
Power is another area where Apple improved things quietly: One charge gets you up to 5 hours of continuous listening, and with the redesigned charging case, you now get up to 30 hours total before needing to plug in. The smaller case supports USB-C charging – the same port found on the latest iPhones and Macs – so you can top it off with a single cable. It’s also tougher than before, now rated IP54 for dust, sweat, and water resistance, meaning splashes, rain, or gym sessions are no longer a worry.
Everyday use is effortlessly smooth – the way all great technology should be: Take one earbud out and playback automatically pauses; put it back in and music resumes where you left off. Share audio instantly with another pair of AirPods for a show or podcast without having to pass your phone around. And if you misplace them, the Find My app tracks each earbud individually so they’re never lost for long.
Let’s be real here: AirPods almost never go on sale and when they do, it’s usually modest. Seeing the latest model crash to under $85 is borderline surreal: Amazon has never dropped any AirPods line this deep before and that’s saying something after years of tight pricing control from Apple. So whether you’re upgrading from an older pair, switching from Android to iPhone, or just want earbuds that always behave reliably, this deal makes sense in every direction.
