Apple AirPods 4 (Active Noise Cancellation, White)

The Apple AirPods 4 represent Apple's latest entry-level true-wireless earbuds, featuring the H2 chip for improved processing and a redesigned, more comfortable form factor with shorter stems. Key specs: 4 hours listening (ANC on) / 30 hours total with case; Bluetooth 5.3; AAC codec; Active Noise Cancellation plus Adaptive Audio and Transparency Mode; IP54 dust/sweat/water resistance; and Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking. The earbuds include Voice Isolation for calls, Siri voice control with gesture support (head nod/shake), and a compact wireless charging case. Fit relies on silicone ear tips in multiple sizes; controls are intuitive quick-press interactions on the stem. Best for: iPhone/iPad users seeking solid ANC at an accessible mid-range price, without the premium cost of AirPods Pro 2. Sound character is balanced and Apple-typical—smooth but not audiophile-grade. Connection is seamless within the Apple ecosystem; multipoint is supported. Genuine limitations: ANC is competent but trails flagship Sony/Bose; call quality is good but not best-in-class; no native LDAC/aptX support.
