Black Friday is almost here and the deals are already picking up steam. If you’re in the market for Apple deals, it’s one of the best events of the year to score real savings — — but you don’t have to wait until after Thanksgiiving to score a record-low price on AirPods.
You can pick up the entry-level AirPods 4 for just $85 right now. That’s thanks to a one-day sale at Best Buy that Amazon is matching, knocking $45 off the usual price and dropping the AirPods 4 lower than ever before weeks ahead of Black Friday proper.
Apple’s AirPods 4 are available in two formats, and this is the version without active noise cancellation. These AirPods will usually run you $129 (the ANC model typically retails for $179), but with this discount, you’ll pay only $85. These AirPods have been redesigned so they fit more comfortably. Apple’s H2 chip allows for voice isolation whenever you’re in situations that require you to take calls in a noisy environment. The AirPods 4 also offer personalized spatial audio and a battery life of up to 20 hours.

Why this deal matters
Apple makes superb audio gear, and the AirPods offer good sound quality and a comfortable fit for most people. «They may not be quite as cheap or as small as the AirPods 2, but they sound a lot better and have a lot more features,» says CNET’s audio expert David Carnoy, who thought $100 would be a good price for them. These AirPods don’t have noise-canceling features, but for just $85, this is a deal you should seriously consider.
