AirPods 4 have been slashed in price for Amazon Prime Day

With Amazon’s Prime Day sale in full swing, shoppers have until 26 June to snap up some of the biggest deals of the summer. If you’ve been considering a new pair of wireless earbuds, there are some particularly impressive savings on Apple’s coveted models.

One of the best deals we’ve seen is on the AirPods 4 with active noise cancellation, which have been reduced by £45. That’s a saving of 25 per cent, taking the buds down to the cheapest price we’ve seen for this model to date. Released in 2024, the buds include Apple’s H2 chip, voice isolation and MagSafe charging support.

Those looking to spend even less can also pick up the standard AirPods 4, without active noise cancellation, for £80, thanks to a discount of more than 30 per cent.

AirPods 4 wireless earbuds with active noise cancellation: Was £169, now £125.40, Amazon.co.uk

The Independent’s tech critic David Phelan tested the AirPods 4 as soon as they launched in September 2024. In his Airpods 4 review, David described the audio quality as “strong” and said: “Listening to music is exemplary, even with noise-cancelling off, offering decent breadth of sound and fidelity in vocals and mid-range notes.”

These are MagSafe compatible and David described them as “amazingly small and light”, adding that they come with a feature you may find handy if you’re prone to losing your earphones. “There’s also a speaker on the bottom of the case so if you lose your AirPods, you can cause the case to make a sound to help you find it,” he wrote.

They’re designed for better comfort over long periods than previous models, and David confirmed that they were “definitely comfortable”.

You’ll get a battery life of five hours if you choose to use noise-cancelling, and four hours with. Plus, you’ll get up to an hour’s listening time after a five-minute charge time.

These earbuds feel similar to their premium counterpart “with the same comfortable fit and intuitive controls where you press to pause or play, for instance,” writes tech critic David Phelan in his review. However, they don’t come with active noise cancellation.

If this feature isn’t important to you, you can save 32 per cent on the AirPods 4, which brings the price down to £79.80.

David described them as “the best-value AirPods ever” and praised their “neat design, tiny case, good battery life and excellent sound.”
