I ended up returning due to the buds continuously falling out my ear. As much as I clean and wipe my ears to get any moisture/wax out it just don’t stay in..

Purchased in August, and now in November the case is not charging. I’ve attempted to troubleshoot various ways and still no charge. Earbuds work fine, but case will not charge.

Apple’s AirPods 4 mark a significant evolution in the company’s wireless earbud lineup, offering notable improvements in design, sound quality, and features.
Design and Comfort
The AirPods 4 maintain the iconic stemmed design but with subtle refinements for a more comfortable fit. The earbuds have been reshaped based on extensive ear scanning data, resulting in a design that fits more users comfortably. The charging case is approximately 10% smaller than previous versions, enhancing portability without compromising battery capacity. 
Sound Quality
Users have reported that the AirPods 4 deliver excellent midrange and treble performance, with decent mid-bass for an open-earbud design. The sound profile is balanced, providing clear and engaging audio across various genres. However, due to the open design, there is a noticeable roll-off in sub-bass frequencies, which may not satisfy bass enthusiasts. 
Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)
One of the standout features of the AirPods 4 is the introduction of Active Noise Cancellation without the use of silicone ear tips. While the ANC is effective in reducing ambient noise by about a third, it may not match the performance of the AirPods Pro, especially in very loud environments. Some users describe the ANC as more of a noise reduction than full cancellation.  
Battery Life and Connectivity
The AirPods 4 offer up to five hours of listening time with ANC enabled, with the charging case providing an additional 25 hours, totaling 30 hours of battery life. The case supports USB-C charging, aligning with Apple’s recent transition to this standard. The earbuds are equipped with the H2 chip and Bluetooth 5.3, ensuring a stable and efficient wireless connection. 
Additional Features
The AirPods 4 come with several notable features:
• Personalized Spatial Audio: Enhances the immersive listening experience by tailoring sound to the user’s ear shape.
• Voice Isolation: Improves call clarity by minimizing background noise during phone calls.
• IP54 Rating: Provides resistance against dust and water splashes, making them suitable for workouts and outdoor activities.
• Conversation Awareness: Automatically reduces audio volume and enhances voices when it detects that the user is speaking, facilitating smoother interactions without needing to remove the earbuds.
Pricing and Value
The AirPods 4 are available in two versions:
• Standard Model: Priced at $129, offering improved sound quality and design enhancements.
• ANC Model: Priced at $179, includes Active Noise Cancellation and additional features like a speaker in the charging case for Find My tracking.
While the ANC model provides notable features, some users may find the standard model offers better value, especially if ANC is not a priority. 
Conclusion
The AirPods 4 represent a compelling upgrade for those seeking comfortable, open-fit earbuds with improved sound quality and seamless integration into the Apple ecosystem. However, users who prioritize robust noise cancellation or deeper bass response might still prefer the AirPods Pro or other alternatives.

Okay, I’ll admit—I wasn’t expecting to be blown away by a pair of earbuds. But here we are.
First off, the sound quality? Chef’s kiss. Crisp highs, punchy bass, and everything just sounds so clean. I’ve caught myself re-listening to old playlists just to hear what I’ve been missing.
They pair with my iPhone in seconds (literally, it’s like they’re reading my mind), and the battery life is seriously impressive. I’ve worn them through long flights, gym sessions, and Netflix binges with no problem.
And the noise cancellation? Unreal. I popped these in at the coffee shop, and the chaos around me melted away. It’s like having a personal mute button for the world.
Bonus points for how comfy they are—even after hours, no ear fatigue. They stay put during runs, and I barely notice them.
If you’re on the fence, just do it. These earbuds are everything I hoped for and more. Apple nailed it.

I ordered a pair of AirPods and a few other multiple items. when the items arrived at my house, the brown packing tape had already been cut open and somebody had removed everything out of the box and put clear plastic tape to reseal it. Police report was filed. Unfortunately, I have to give a bad review because Best Buy chose a incompetent company like DoorDash to deliver expensive electronic merchandise. I am not sure if I am ever going to order anything online from Best Buy again going forward because I do not trust I will not have to go through the same thing that I just went through.

I've been using the AirPods Pro for a few months now, and I can confidently say they live up to the hype. The sound quality is impressive, with rich bass, clear mids, and crisp highs that make listening to music, podcasts, or calls a pleasure.
One of the standout features is the Active Noise Cancellation. It effectively blocks out background noise, whether I’m on a busy street or working in a noisy environment. The Transparency Mode is also fantastic—it lets in just enough ambient sound so I can stay aware of my surroundings without removing the earbuds.
Comfort-wise, the AirPods Pro are lightweight and fit snugly in my ears, even during long listening sessions or workouts. The included silicone tips come in multiple sizes, ensuring a secure and personalized fit.
The battery life is solid—around 4.5 to 5 hours on a single charge with ANC on, and the charging case provides several extra charges, making it convenient for travel or daily use. The integration with Apple devices is seamless; pairing is instant, and switching between devices is effortless.
Overall, the AirPods Pro are a premium set of wireless earbuds that offer great sound, comfort, and smart features. They’re a bit pricey, but for what they offer, they’re absolutely worth it.
