    The AirPods 4 with Noise Cancellation are hands-down the best earbuds Apple has released yet. From the moment you put them in, the sound quality is incredibly clear and balanced, with deep bass, crisp highs, and rich mids that make music, podcasts, and calls sound amazing. The noise cancellation is surprisingly powerful for such a compact design. It does an excellent job of blocking out background noise like traffic, gym sounds, or office chatter, while still feeling natural and not overly isolating. When you need awareness, switching modes is seamless and works exactly as advertised. Comfort is another huge win. They’re lightweight, fit perfectly, and stay secure even during workouts or long listening sessions. Battery life is solid, and the charging case is compact and convenient. Pairing with Apple devices is instant, and features like automatic device switching and spatial audio make the experience feel effortless and premium. Overall, the AirPods 4 with Noise Cancellation deliver outstanding performance, comfort, and convenience. If you’re in the Apple ecosystem and want top-tier wireless earbuds, these are absolutely worth it.

    Super comfortable, lightweight, and easy to use with Apple devices. The noise cancellation works surprisingly well for their size, cutting down background noise without making things feel muffled. Sound is clean and balanced, and battery life is solid for everyday use. Great choice if you want convenience, good audio, and Apple-smooth performance.

    I bought the AirPods 4 as a gift for my wife, and they’ve honestly been a great choice. She uses them every day—at home, on walks, and during calls—and she keeps mentioning how clear and balanced the sound is. Music sounds rich without being overwhelming, and voices come through crisp and natural. What she appreciates most is how comfortable they are. She can wear them for hours without feeling any pressure or fatigue, which wasn’t the case with her previous earbuds. Pairing them with her phone was effortless, and switching between devices happens smoothly without any frustration. Battery life has also been solid. She rarely worries about charging them, and they easily last through her daily routine. Overall, the AirPods 4 feel well thought out and reliable. Most importantly, she’s genuinely happy with them, and that alone makes this purchase completely worth it.

    These AirPods surprised me in the best way. The sound is clear, the bass is solid, and they connect instantly every time. They fit comfortably and stay in place even when I’m moving around. Calls sound great on both sides and the battery life lasts longer than I expected. Overall, a reliable, high quality upgrade I use every day.

    A significant upgrade from the AirPods 3

    There are two ways to compare the AirPods 4 ANC. One way is as an upgrade from the AirPods 3 and the other is comparing to the AirPods Pro 2. Compared to the 3, these are a significant upgrade. Sound quality has improved, the case has additional features, and battery life is on par with the 3. The case itself is noticeably smaller. I find the fit to be excellent and I like these better than the silicon tips of the AirPods Pro 2. Features like ANC and Transparency mode are new to the baseline AirPods. Considering that these don’t have a tight seal, the ANC is quite good. External sounds can still be heard, but are considerably muted…especially if the sound is a steady. Comparing to the AirPods Pro 2, the Pros have much better active noise cancellation, will have the ability to act as hearing aids, and the sound quality is slightly, but noticeably better. The controls on the Pros are more robust. The battery life of the Pros is better by about an hour or so. But the AirPods 4 ANC is more comfortable to wear for long periods of time for me. After an hour or so, I find the silicon tips to be a little irritating. I am very happy with the acquisition of my AirPods 4 ANC and I wear them in low volatility noise situations with great delight!

    Love them. Line the noise cancellation feature and when you speak how the volume adjust. Had no issue connecting to my phone or other devices. Fit feels good. They don’t bother from being in after a while. They do move some, but not hard to readjust. Sound quality is great. And the battery life is amazing. I use them at work and don’t have to constantly be recharging.

    I’ve been using the AirPods Pro for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The noise cancellation works very well, especially in noisy places like buses or coffee shops. The sound quality is clear with a good balance of bass and treble. They fit comfortably in my ears and stay in place even when I’m walking or working out. The battery life is also decent, and the charging case is small and easy to carry. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase

    I’ve been using the AirPods 4 as my daily earbuds, and they’ve quickly become something I reach for without thinking. Apple really nailed the balance between comfort, sound quality, and convenience with this generation. The first thing I noticed was how comfortable they are. They sit securely in my ears without feeling tight or intrusive, which makes them easy to wear for long periods. I can keep them in during work, driving, or just walking around without constantly adjusting them. They’re lightweight and don’t cause fatigue, even after hours of use. Sound quality is clean and well-balanced. The mids and highs are clear, vocals sound natural, and instruments come through crisp without being harsh. Bass is present and punchy for non–in-ear-sealed earbuds, and while it’s not overwhelming, it’s more than enough for everyday listening. Music, podcasts, and phone calls all sound noticeably better compared to older generations. Call quality has also been solid. Voices come through clear on both ends, and background noise is handled well, even when I’m outside or in a busier environment. For work calls and everyday phone conversations, they’ve been reliable. The seamless Apple integration is where these really shine. Pairing is instant, switching between Apple devices is effortless, and everything just works. Battery life has been more than enough for a full day of on-and-off use, and the case charges quickly and is easy to throw in a pocket. Overall, the AirPods 4 are a great choice if you want comfortable, great-sounding earbuds that don’t get in the way. They’re not meant to replace high-end noise-canceling headphones, but for everyday use, they’re incredibly convenient and polished. If you’re already in the Apple ecosystem and want something reliable, easy, and consistently good, the AirPods 4 are an excellent pick.

    I am typically not a fan of earbuds as they feel uncomfortable and fall out. I used over-ear Bose headphones instead. But I tried these new Airpods 4 with noise cancellation and they fit so comfortably AND block noise as well as my Bose 700. I tested them both on a 4+ hour flight and the Airpods were better in all respects except battery life. This is the only downside, but was less of an issue than I expected because dropping them in the case for a few minutes charged them up quickly and they lasted long enough for the remainder of the trip. These really do feel like practically nothing in your ears and I don't feel like they will fall out. I like to lean my head against the wall of the plane or tilt my head to one side to sleep and these allow me to do so without shifting or adjusting as I had to do with the large headphones. Plus I can wear a hat on top of them. Bass response and overall audio quality are very good.

    Great sound, Surprisingly good ANC, Pro like feat

    The AirPods 4 with ANC offer an improved experience over the AirPods Pro 2, especially for users who struggle to get a good fit with silicone tips. One of the biggest benefits is how well these earbuds stay in place, even during intense activities like heavy exercise, significantly reducing the chances of sound leaks or fall-offs. Enhanced ANC for Poor Silicone Tip Fits For users who found the ANC on AirPods Pro 2 less effective due to an imperfect fit with silicone tips, the AirPods 4 deliver a marked improvement. Their secure fit ensures a more consistent seal, leading to better noise cancellation. In fact, the ANC performs better on the AirPods 4 for those who cannot achieve a good fit with silicone tips. By staying firmly in place, the ANC on AirPods 4 can actually outperform that of the Pro 2, making external noise less intrusive in various environments. Perfect for Active Lifestyles Whether you're running, working out, or engaging in heavy movement, the AirPods 4 excel in staying put. Their fit ensures there’s little risk of falling out or sound leakage, a problem common with earbuds that rely on silicone tips. This stability keeps the sound steady, preventing interruptions or dips in quality during vigorous activities. The AirPods 4 are therefore ideal for users with an active lifestyle who need earbuds that can handle motion without requiring constant adjustments. Closer to AirPods Pro 2 in Features Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) The standout feature that aligns the AirPods 4 with the AirPods Pro 2 is their Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). Both models deliver top-tier ANC performance, effectively cutting down on ambient noise in environments like airplanes, busy offices, or crowded streets. Unlike many other earbuds, the AirPods 4’s ANC performance rivals that of the Pro 2, making them a go-to choice for users who need noise isolation but don’t want the in-ear feel of silicone tips. Transparency Mode Like the AirPods Pro 2, the AirPods 4 feature Transparency Mode, allowing users to remain aware of their surroundings without removing the earbuds. This mode works fluidly and naturally, allowing external sounds to pass through seamlessly. Audio Quality When it comes to sound, the AirPods 4 closely mirror the AirPods Pro 2. Both feature high-excursion drivers and custom amplifiers, delivering rich, balanced audio with deep bass, clear mids, and crisp highs. They also offer spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, providing an immersive experience for music, movies, and calls. This advanced audio performance sets the AirPods 4 apart from more basic models, offering a level of richness and depth that enhances the overall listening experience. Battery Life Battery performance on the AirPods 4 is comparable to the Pro 2, offering around 4 hours of playback with ANC, and 5 hours without. However, the charging case extends total usage to 30 hours, matching the longevity of the AirPods Pro 2. This extended battery life is suitable for long periods of use without frequent recharges. No Skin Detection or Hearing Health Features While the AirPods Pro 2 comes equipped with Skin Detection sensors and future Hearing Health features, the AirPods 4 omit these, offering a simpler experience. However, the AirPods 4 still include many premium features that elevate them above more basic options on the market. Final Thoughts The AirPods 4 with ANC share far more in common with the AirPods Pro 2 than with other models. With premium features such as Active Noise Cancellation, Transparency Mode, and enhanced sound quality, the AirPods 4 deliver a Pro-level experience in a more comfortable, open-ear design. While missing some advanced sensors like skin detectionand Hearing Health monitoring, the AirPods 4’s similarities to the Pro 2 in terms of performance and noise cancellation make them an excellent option for users who want Pro features without silicone tips. For those who value ANC, premium sound, and seamless integration with the Apple ecosystem—but don’t like the in-ear design of the Pro series—the AirPods 4 is a godsend.

    I recommend these EarPods. They are noise, cancellation, and they are clear when you’re on the phone talking and when you’re listening to music, they are really good with the sound. I like the way they automatically connect when you take them out to your phone or your iPad and I like that it shows up on my phone how they are charged and how the case is charged and it lets you know when you do talk to them that they are fully charged.

Whether you're listening to podcasts, music, or making calls, the clarity is top-notch. Adaptive EQ enhances the sound further, adjusting in real-time based on the fit in your ears.

The charging case provides additional charges, extending overall usage time significantly. Connectivity: Seamless integration with Apple devices through the H1 chip ensures quick pairing, stable connections, and easy switching between devices. Features like "Hey Siri" support add convenience. Pros: Excellent noise cancellation Rich, immersive sound quality Comfortable fit for prolonged use Great battery life with fast charging Seamless Apple ecosystem integration Cons: Premium price point Limited customization options for non-Apple devices Final Verdict: The AirPods with Noise Cancellation are a standout choice for Apple users seeking high-quality audio and effective noise reduction.
