If you’re looking for a solid pair of earbuds at a price that won’t break the bank, you can’t go wrong with the AirPods 4. Available at just $129, they bring excellent sound and battery life, and a comfortable design. But they truly can’t be beat at today’s price of just $99 at Amazon.
This model only just arrived last September, so we don’t expect an update for another year or two. However, you will get several new features with iOS 26 in the fall, including studio-quality audio recording for creators, remote stopping and starting of cameras with a press of the stem, and enhanced voice quality during calls.
But even before these new features arrive, the AirPods 4 are a fantastic set of earbuds, especially for under $100. So go grab a pair before the price jumps back up.
