The all-new AirPods 4 have never been cheaper
Amazon’s January sale is in full swing, and the retailer has just discounted the all-new AirPods 4 to their lowest-ever price this January.
Apple AirPods 4 with ANC: Was £179, now £164, Amazon.co.uk
A worthy rival to the AirPods Pro 2, these sleek earbuds come equipped with active noise cancellation to block out distractions, making them ideal for commuting, workouts or just enjoying your music. With a snug fit, improved audio quality, and seamless integration with Apple devices, they deliver premium sound without the premium price tag. While it’s only a £15 price cut, this is the lowest I’ve seen the buds since they launched in September.
