About this item
- REBUILT FOR COMFORT — AirPods 4 have been redesigned for exceptional all-day comfort and greater stability. With a refined contour, shorter stem, and quick-press controls for music or calls.
- ACTIVE NOISE CANCELLATION — AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation help reduce outside noise before it reaches your ears, so you can immerse yourself in what you’re listening to.
- HEAR THE WORLD AROUND YOU — The powerful H2 chip comes to AirPods 4. Adaptive Audio seamlessly blends Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency mode — which lets you comfortably hear and interact with the world around you exactly as it sounds — to provide the best listening experience in any environment. And when you’re speaking to someone nearby, Conversation Awareness automatically lowers the volume of what’s playing.
- IMPROVED SOUND AND CALL QUALITY — Voice Isolation improves the quality of calls in loud conditions. Using advanced computational audio, it reduces background noise while isolating and clarifying the sound of your voice for whoever you’re speaking to.
- MAGICAL EXPERIENCE — Just say “Siri” or “Hey Siri” to play a song, make a call or check your schedule. And with Siri Interactions, now you can respond to Siri by simply nodding your head yes or shaking your head no. Pair AirPods 4 by simply placing them near your device and tapping Connect on your screen. Easily share a song or show between two sets of AirPods. A skin-detecting sensor knows to play audio only when you’re wearing AirPods and pauses when you take them off. And you can track down your AirPods and Charging Case with the Find My app.
- PERSONALISED SPATIAL AUDIO — Personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking places sound all around you, creating a cinema-like listening experience for music, TV shows, movies, games and more.
- REDESIGNED CASE — The Charging Case is the smallest in the industry with wireless charging. Charge with an Apple Watch charger, USB-C Charge Cable or Qi-certified charger.
- LONG BATTERY LIFE — With Active Noise Cancellation enabled, get up to 4 hours of listening time on a single charge and up to 20 hours using the case. And you can get up to 30 hours of total listening time without Active Noise Cancellation enabled.
- DUST, SWEAT AND WATER RESISTANT — AirPods 4 and the Charging Case are rated IP54 dust, sweat and water resistant, so they’ll withstand rain and heavy workouts.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2024I struggle with wearing earphones but these are amazing. They are so comfortable and I like that they sit in your ear rather than go inside the ear. I wear these when dog walking and on my commutes. They block out other noise really well and are excellent quality.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 November 2024A nice little upgrade from the original airpods that after 5 years of use have finally decided it was there time up, and these have not disappointed in the slightest more so with the ANC which works an absolute treat and a half when travelling or just casually out and about.
Super easy to connect sound quality is good but will note this depends on the volume and type of music as some can seem slightly tinny if maxed out.
Would recommend for anybody wanting an upgrade from older Airpods
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 September 2024Maybe I haven't tried enough earbuds.
I have tried several cheaper ANC earbuds, I have tried Airpod Pro. I own Airpod Max + Sony XM5.
My problem with the silicone earbuds, is that my ears don't fit them very well (no I obviously haven't tried them all) and if I lay down (ie, bench at the gym) they just fall out.
These are just like the original Airpods, in that they sit quite nicely in my ear but with the ANC that borderline rivals the Airpod Max.
I have been using these as I walk around the house - listening to podcasts that I'd normally have just playing on a small speaker, it means I don't have to carry the speaker around and the sound quality is unmatched (for a portable speaker).
It really mutes the noise of doors closing, toilets flushing and kettle boiling. Very very very impressive stuff, and all for £180. Maybe that's a lot for this type of product, and I haven't tried them on a plane yet, but I think these usurp the Max for me in terms of daily usage.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 December 2024I’ve been using the AirPods (4th Gen) for a while now, and while they’re good, they don’t quite live up to the hype or my expectations. They offer some solid features, but there are definite areas for improvement, especially when compared to the AirPods Pro.
Let’s start with the positives. The sound quality is decent. It’s not going to blow you away, but it does the job for casual listening. The mids and highs are clear, and the audio is balanced enough for genres like pop, classical, or podcasts. However, if you’re someone who loves deep bass or wants a more immersive listening experience, you might find these a bit lacking. The bass is present but far from punchy or rich.
The semi-decent noise cancellation is another area where I felt a bit underwhelmed. It’s there, but it’s not nearly as effective as what you’d get with the AirPods Pro. It blocks out some background noise in quieter environments, but in noisy places like cafes or public transport, it struggles to keep up. If noise isolation is a priority for you, this might not be the best choice.
Comfort is another point worth mentioning. For me, these aren’t as comfortable as I’d hoped. The fit is okay for short periods, but wearing them for extended sessions can become uncomfortable, especially if you’re moving around a lot. They also feel a bit loose in the ears, so I found myself adjusting them more than I’d like. If you have smaller or oddly shaped ears, the fit might be hit or miss.
Now, let’s talk about value. If you’re on a budget and can’t stretch to the AirPods Pro, these could be a reasonable compromise. They still integrate seamlessly with the Apple ecosystem, pairing effortlessly with devices and switching smoothly between them. However, if you can afford the AirPods Pro, I’d say they’re absolutely worth the extra money. The Pro version offers significantly better noise cancellation, a more secure and comfortable fit (thanks to the customizable ear tips), and richer, more dynamic sound quality.
In summary, the AirPods (4th Gen) are a decent pair of wireless earbuds, but they’re far from perfect. They’re good for everyday use and casual listeners, but for those looking for top-notch performance, comfort, and noise cancellation, the AirPods Pro are the way to go. If you can stretch your budget, skip these and invest in the Pro—you won’t regret it.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 December 2024I can finally hear my music loud and clear and also manage to talk on the phone with the other cospeaker listening to me
Clearly!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 December 2024I'll start with the positives - better fit than previous versions I've tried. First few days I was impressed with the sound. Negatives next, it took me a few days to figure out how to get the active noise cancelling to work as its so different from previous models. I eventually figured you had to pinch the stem. I did. It was like noise cancelling in reverse - I went out for a walk and thought a I was in a war zone - amplified the sound of every car going by by 100 straight into my earlobe. Needless to say Im getting a replacement. I'll see how they go but I cant believe these aren't fakes
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 December 2024I wanted to replace my old Apple AirPods, and this new version does not disappoint. The ANC feature is quite handy, and works well considering these are not sealed in your ears. Very Happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top qualité
Les AirPods se marient parfaitement à l’oreille d’un enfant de 11 ans. Le son est parfait, la qualité est à la hauteur de ce qu’Apple a l’habitude de faire.
La fonction anti bruit est juste impressionnante, cela vous permet de vous immerger dans une expérience acoustique inégalée. D’autant plus impressionnant au vu de la taille des Airpods.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jak zwykle mega
to juz drugie mojesluchawki od Apple i razem tabletem czy telefonem współgrają bez zarzutu. Dziwiek jest dardzo dobrej jakości, chociaż nie jestem specjalista od tego to jest czysto a i ANC działa zaskakująco dobrze. Chociaż zdaje sobie sprawę ze to w sporym stopniu zależeć będzie od dopasowania słuchawek do uszu. U mnie są w sam raz, przylegają szczelnie i nie uwierają, dlatego ANC u mnie super.

5.0 out of 5 stars Les meilleurs écouteurs open fit
J’ai testé des écouteurs intra avec embouts en caoutchouc et réduction de bruit, ça me convenait pas ça faisait bouchon dans les oreilles insupportable pour moi. J’avais les AirPods 3 que je trouvais déjà très bien mais là je suis bluffé par la réduction de bruit pour des écouteurs dit ouvert (sans les bouchons dans les oreilles) ça vaut pas les intra-auriculaires mais c’est parfait pour moi. En gros si vous supportez pas les écouteurs qui bouchent le conduit auditif et qui vous font mal au crâne et bien ses AirPods là sont pour vous sans problèmes 👍🏼

5.0 out of 5 stars Grandes mejoras. Revoluciónnarios respecto a la 3ª generación
The media could not be loaded.
Parecía que era un imposible, pero Apple se ha superado. Ha hecho una auténtica revolución y sí, estos hacen verdadera magia.
COMODIDAD. Realmente muy cómodos, no te enteras de que los llevas puestos. Y han cambiado el diseño respecto a los de la 3ª generación y a personas que el anterior modelo no les iba bien, estos realmente van estupendos.
DISEÑO. A primera vista no vas a notar diferencia con la generación anterior, tienen un diseño continuista, pero más lejos de la realidad. Han cambiado el diseño, la forma de adaptarse al oído es muy diferente. Ademas, el estuche de carga es muy muy pequeño. Y sí, por fin ya con USB-C. Junto al conector, hay un pequeño altavoz que para buscarlos es ideal. Todo muy bien pensado y trabajado.
SONIDO. Realmente suenan espectaculares. Los de 3ª generación tenían una potencia para mí, bastante pobre. Estos suenan mucho más fuerte y con un equilibrio sonoro brutal. Fuertes poderosos, medios nítidos y agudos muy equilibrados. Son una autentica maravilla. No esperaba para nada que sonasen tan bien. Las críticas los ponen genial, pero creo que se quedan cortos.
CANCELACIÓN DE RUIDO. Sorprendente sería la palabra. ¿Cómo lo hacen? No lo sé, pero la verdad es que cancelan y mucho el ruido exterior. Eso sí, si esperas que sea igual que la de los pro, no va a ser así, pero para las personas que no podemos llevar las almohadillas, son una gozada. Te aíslan del exterior muchísimo y puedes regular el tipo de cancelación si quieres total o adaptativo para que si alguien te habla, baje el volumen automáticamente. Comprobado en el trabajo tanto cancelación total como la adaptativa y funciona perfecto. Me han hablado y no escuchaba nada y el adaptativo ha hecho que llevara la conversacionales como si nada, y con la música de fondo sonando.
LLAMADAS TELEFÓNICAS. Otro de los aspectos que han mejorado de manera espectacular. He realizado una llamada telefónica con los AirPods mientras usaba el aspirador. Me ha aislado por completo del ruido del aspirador y ademas mi interlocutora, mi madre, no se ha dado cuenta de nada del ruido de fondo. Realmente también sorprendentes en este aspecto.
AIRPODS PRO o AIRPODS 4ª GENERACIÓN. En mi caso, lo tengo muy claro, los 4. Prácticamente ofrecen lo mismo que los Pro, pero sin las almohadillas que no soporto. Si prefieres los Pro, los tienes en غ a un precio muy competitivo https://amzn.to/4io1jVX
En RESUMEN, un producto que ha mejorado mucho, pero realmente mucho y sin duda compraría los de cancelación de ruido. Por poco más, les vas a sacar un gran rendimiento. Estoy realmente encantado con el producto y los considero hoy por hoy, una de las mejores inversiones realizadas hasta la fecha. Por poner un pero, se han olvidado de poner en la cajita un cable de carga USB-C. Queda un poco feo no acompañarlos de ese cable por el precio que tienen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Meine Erfahrung mit den Apple AirPods 4
Die Apple AirPods 4 sind einfach beeindruckend. Die aktive Geräuschunterdrückung sorgt dafür, dass ich mich voll auf Musik oder Anrufe konzentrieren kann, selbst in lauten Umgebungen. Besonders begeistert mich das adaptive Audio, das automatisch zwischen Umgebungsgeräuschen und Musik balanciert.
Das personalisierte 3D-Audio schafft ein räumliches Klangerlebnis, das wirklich immersiv ist. Dank Transparenzmodus bleibe ich trotzdem jederzeit mit meiner Umgebung verbunden. Das neue USB-C Ladecase macht das Aufladen einfacher, und die Möglichkeit zum kabellosen Laden ist ein toller Pluspunkt.
Fazit: Perfekte Kopfhörer für alle, die erstklassigen Sound, Komfort und smarte Features schätzen. Absolut empfehlenswert!
