    I recently purchased the Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation from Best Buy on July 16, 2025, and they have completely exceeded my expectations. As someone who uses earbuds daily for work, travel, and workouts, I can confidently say these are the best I’ve owned so far. Sound Quality: The sound is rich, crisp, and well-balanced. The bass is punchy without being overwhelming, and vocals are incredibly clear. Whether I’m listening to music, podcasts, or taking calls, the quality is top-notch. Active Noise Cancellation: The noise cancellation is impressive. It blocks out background noise even in noisy environments like subways or busy cafés. It’s a game-changer for concentration and relaxation. Comfort & Fit: They fit perfectly in my ears and stay in place even during runs. They’re lightweight and comfortable for long hours – I’ve worn them for 4-5 hours without any discomfort. Features & Compatibility: The pairing with my iPhone was instant and seamless. The touch controls are intuitive, and I love the new adaptive transparency mode. It feels like Apple really listened to user feedback with this generation. Battery Life: Excellent battery life! I get almost 6 hours of continuous use, and the case gives multiple charges. The fast charging feature is also a big plus. Conclusion: These AirPods 4 have redefined what wireless earbuds should be. If you’re on the fence, go for it — they are worth every cent. Thank you, Best Buy, for making this amazing product available with great service!

    Apple AirPods 4 Review: Comfort and Features.

    I’ve been using the Apple AirPods 3s for a month now, and overall, I’ve had a really positive experience. The sound quality is noticeably clearer compared to the previous versions, with richer bass and more balanced mids and highs. I especially like the spatial audio feature—it makes music and movies feel more immersive. The fit is also better for me compared to the AirPods 2, since the shorter stem and contoured design feel more secure in my ears without being uncomfortable. Battery life has been solid, usually lasting me around 5–6 hours per charge, and the charging case tops them up quickly. I also like how seamlessly they connect to all my Apple devices—the automatic switching between my iPhone and iPad is super convenient. The only downside for me is that they don’t have active noise cancellation like the AirPods Pro. They do block some background sound just from the fit, but if you’re in a really noisy environment, you’ll still hear outside noise.

    Absolutely love these AirPods! The sound quality is crystal clear with deep bass and balanced mids — perfect for both music and calls. The new shape fits my ears perfectly, super comfortable even after hours of use. Battery life is impressive, and the MagSafe charging case is super convenient. Noise isolation works great for everyday use, and the connection with my iPhone is instant. Definitely one of my favorite Apple products — worth every penny!

    These headphones exceeded my expectations. The vacuum audio is amazing, it feels like being in your own world, with a clean and immersive sound. The bass and treble are very well balanced and the noise cancellation really makes the difference. The comfort is excellent even in prolonged use, and the connection with the iPhone is instant and without problems. Although the price is high, the experience is totally worth it. Without a doubt, one of my best Apple purchases

    Are the AirPods 4 (ANC) worth it?

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Absolutely they are very worth it they have very great audio quality (tested with Apple Music, Tidal, Spotify) if you want the best sound quality and best surround sound (Dolby Atmos) use Apple Music or Tidal spotify quality isnt showing the AirPods full potential they last pretty long and the ANC isn’t like the AirPods Pro 2 but it’s still great for everyday use and flights also they are very easy to find if you lose them because the tracking is amazing it doesn’t have precision finding like AirPods Pro 2 but its very easy to find with playing a sound because the new speakers but the real question is AirPods 4 ANC or AirPods Pro 2? Well it depends on comfort and sound quality also ANC the ANC on the pros is 2 times better but still great on the 4s the comfort is the AirPods 4 the acoustic sounding is the best on the AirPods Pro but remember the AirPods 4 still have amazing sound quality the AirPods 4 ANC and Pros are currently same price so i would recommend both but it depends on which you want!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Next-Level Listening Experience

    The Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation are nothing short of extraordinary. Apple has taken everything we loved about the previous models and elevated it to new heights. From the moment you pop them in, you’re greeted with crystal-clear sound, deeper bass, and an ultra-immersive audio experience that rivals high-end over-ear headphones. The Active Noise Cancellation is outstanding – it effortlessly blocks out everything from crowded cafes to noisy commutes, letting you focus on what matters most: your music, calls, or peace of mind. And with Adaptive Transparency Mode, you get the best of both worlds when you need to stay aware of your surroundings without removing your earbuds. Pairing is lightning fast and seamless across all Apple devices, and the new Personalized Spatial Audio makes every song feel like a private concert. The improved fit and comfort make them perfect for all-day wear, and the battery life keeps up with even the busiest schedules. Apple has truly nailed it with the AirPods 4 – whether you’re a casual listener, a remote worker, or an audiophile, these are the earbuds you’ve been waiting for. Verdict: A must-have upgrade. Worth every penny.

    My full on detailed review after 3 days of use. Okay, first things first, ANC is solid for what the buds are and without the eartip. It has no issues knocking an aircon out of the room or the buzzing of a refrigerator. Positives: This may be apples SMALLEST available package of any electronics. The case itself is probably the smallest case ever released onto the open market, which makes it easily portably in a bag, a pocket, or a purse. This is also in my opinion, the BEST case on the market for these reasons. These buds are COMFORTABLE so long as they fit. I had my girlfriend try these and she said they weren’t great, but I can happily wear these for their entire battery life with no ear fatigue. Finally, these have the best transparency mode of any buds I’ve ever tried (I’ve owned 8 or 9 wireless buds at this point in my life) and it honestly feels like I’m not wearing anything. Negatives: For what these buds are, they’re overpriced for sure. These should be about $150 max. The buds themselves only have 4 hour battery lives, which means if you’re someone who wears buds at work or some other public environment, you’re gonna have to charge em at some point. ANC isn’t great, if you’re in a noisy area, you’re gonna have to turn your music or media up quite a lot to actually drown the noise out. This IS to be expected but it’s still a bit of a downside (still the best “open ear” ANC on the market though). Overall I’d give these an 8/10. They sound pretty good as all airpods have, they’re well built, and they provide a strong package. Personally, I like them more than the AirPods Pro 2 but these are overpriced. If you’re debating on these or the pros 2 and don’t care about price, get the Pros 2, but if you’re looking for a good set of buds WITH AN APPLE DEVICE while also trying to save a buck, these are a great choice.

    Perfect Sound, Great Noise Cancellation, and Long

    The AirPods Pro 2 are simply amazing! The sound quality is perfect — deep bass, clear highs, and an overall immersive experience. Whether you’re listening to music or taking calls, the sound remains excellent even in noisy environments. The noise cancellation works well, and I’d give it a solid 4 out of 5. It blocks out most background noise effectively, but there’s still a bit of room for improvement. The Transparency Mode is also very useful for staying aware of your surroundings without having to remove the earbuds. The charging case is fantastic! The battery lasts up to 10 hours of continuous use, which is great for a full day of listening. The case provides several additional charges, making it perfect for long trips. I also want to highlight the build quality. The plastic feels sturdy and premium, and the sleek design looks great. They fit comfortably in my ears and stay in place even during long listening sessions. I highly recommend the AirPods Pro 2 to anyone who loves great sound and convenience!

    I bought these so i can handle my business calls hands free throughout the day. They have an amazing sound and dont hurt my ears with the gum tips that the pros have which is great! But my only gripe with them is that i have to keep pushing them in my ear cause they dont feel as secure as the generation 1s that came out originally (i upgraded from those). Great battery life, noise cancellation is just as good as the pros, overall its a great buy especially if you love airpods without the gum tips.

The noise-cancellation feature is phenomenal, blocking out distractions even in noisy environments. Whether I’m commuting, working, or just relaxing, the immersive sound quality makes every moment more enjoyable. The audio clarity is exceptional, with deep bass and crisp highs that bring music, podcasts, and calls to life. The adaptive audio feature automatically adjusts the sound levels based on my surroundings, creating a seamless listening experience. I also love the transparency mode, which lets me stay aware of my surroundings with just a tap. Comfort-wise, the redesigned fit is incredibly secure and lightweight, making them perfect for long listening sessions. The battery life is impressive, lasting all day with the charging case, which now has MagSafe compatibility for added convenience. Overall, the AirPods 4 deliver a premium experience that’s worth every penny. If you’re looking for top-tier sound quality and cutting-edge features, these are the earbuds to beat!

    Best unsealed earbuds of 2024

    I own the AirPods Pro2 but prefer unsealed earbuds for specific occasions. Here is the truth…the good and bad. Pros: - These get loud and they have good bass - The ANC is good in certain situations - Transparency Mode and the mics are the best of any earbuds - The sound quality is great for music, podcasts, movies, and gaming (Call of Duty mobile is very loud) - Spacial Audio and Personalized Spatial Audio work great and enhance the audio experience - Adaptive Audio and Conversation Awareness are features you can’t live without once you use them - Very comfortable and no ear fatigue wearing them all day (if they fit) Cons: - Battery life is average at best with 4-5 hours - Only comes in white - This style earbuds won’t fit everyone Bottom line…these check every box and have the same cool features as the Pro’s. These are easy to carry, they are comfortable, and they sound good. If you have an Android phone try another option. *Disclaimer…with ANY earbud the most important thing is FIT.

    Great quality, no problems so far

    I was concerned with what the quality of the airpods would be, since they were in the end still refurbished, but they arrived in perfect shape. Their sound quality sound quality is decent, and the active noise cancellation blocks out around like 90% of outside sounds, unless they're close and loud (like a fan for example), which even then that sound is still very muted. The battery life last for around 4-5 hours for each airpod, and the case lasts around 5 days before I need to recharge it, although I do not use it heavily, which might affect that number. The only slight problem I have is that my left airpod falls out of my ear if I tilt my head in that direction, but I assume that is more of a me problem. Overall, it is a pretty great product and worth a purchase!

    A more comfortable alternative to airpod pros

    These are my first experience with the newer airpod shape. I find them really comfortable and even a little more secure fitting than than the original airpods. I had a pair of airpods pro, but I have always found "gummy" head phones to be uncomfortable. The noise cancellation is not near as good as the pros, but will serve their purpose in loud environments. The music sound quality with apple music seems to be great. It looks like the charging case has the same design (though smaller) and will be plagued by the corrosion issues that past airpods have also had. All around, I think these are a great and more comfortable alternative to airpod pros.

    Best Airpods I've ever tasted! better than the Pro

    These are the best earbuds I have ever tried, I have tried the PROs and also others from other brands but these undoubtedly have the best sound. If headphones with gummies make you uncomfortable, then these earbuds are for you! I hate gummies because they fall off or steal me and these Airpods 4 with Noise Cancellation were the solution. My main headphones are the XM4 and they are brutal but these airpods are not far behind, they have a very good factory configuration, their noise cancellation is pretty good for not having gummies and the best thing is their compatibility, I currently use an S25 ULTRA and it works smoothly, it connects very quickly and I can use most of the functions. Their new features like changing the button and sound make them perfect.

    Great headphones but not impressed. I did come from the pro 2 so maybe my standards are high… base is decent for most music genres. noise cancellation works well however you aren’t able to adjust volume from the AirPods like you could for Apple’s 2+ year old pro model. Battery charges fast in individual ear pods but the case takes a while to charge it seems like. This is all compared to what I had before, overall satisfied with the headphones. Already passed the ‘accidental wash machine endurance’ test and has no problem staying in my ear during workouts. Ultimately good headphones but for the same price you could buy 2 or 3 other pairs of quality Bluetooth sound canceling ear pods.

    I bought these because my office was undergoing construction and I wanted some noise cancelling headphones so I could continue focusing with the sound of construction. I am so impressed by these. Their can be framing work going on right outside of my office and I do not hardly hear it at all. These are a complete game changer. The sound quality is great and they fit my ears perfectly. They are very fairly priced for what you get. They are perfect in the office and in the gym. Can't recommend these enough.

    I absolutely love AirPods! The sound quality is great, and the noise cancellation is amazing. They fit perfectly in my ears, which is a huge plus. The only small issue I’ve run into is ending a call- I’m still figuring that part out. I’m use to just tapping the AirPod to hang up, but with these, It seems a little differently. I even had to check YouTube for help (lol). One other thing to note is the battery life- It’s about 5 hours, which is decent but could be better. Still, all in all I think this is a great product and I’m very happy with them!
