About this item
Highlights
- 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.²
- 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.¹ And when you’re speaking with someone nearby, Conversation Awareness automatically lowers the volume of what’s playing.³
- IMPROVED SOUND AND CALL QUALITY—Voice Isolation improves the quality of calls in loud conditions.³ 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.⁴ And with Siri Interactions,³ now you can respond to Siri by simply nodding your head yes or shaking your head no.³ 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.⁵ 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.⁶
- PERSONALIZED SPATIAL AUDIO—Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking places sound all around you, creating a theater-like listening experience for music, TV shows, movies, games, and more.⁷
- 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.⁸
- LONG BATTERY LIFE—With Active Noise Cancellation enabled, get up to 4 hours of listening time on a single charge⁹ 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.¹⁰
- 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.¹¹

submitted by - 12 days agoA: Hi Answerrrrrrrrrrrr, thanks for reaching out about Apple AirPods 4. As of late July 2025, Apple has officially released "AirPods 4". These were launched in September 2024. There are actually two models of "AirPods 4": AirPods 4 (Standard): This is the entry-level model. AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC): This version includes Active Noise Cancellation, a first for the open-ear AirPods design. Given that they are now an official product, the concern shifts to authenticity. To ensure you have genuine AirPods 4 and not fake ones, you should: Purchase from Apple directly or an Apple Authorized Reseller: This is the most reliable way to guarantee authenticity. Check the serial number: Once you have them, you can find the serial number on the box, the charging case, and in your iPhone/iPad's settings (when connected). You can then enter this serial number on Apple's official "Check Coverage" website to verify its legitimacy and warranty status. Look for quality and features: Genuine AirPods have a high build quality, seamless connectivity with Apple devices, and all advertised features (like Spatial Audio, "Hey Siri," and for the ANC model, effective noise cancellation). Fakes often fall short in these areas, especially sound quality, microphone performance, and seamless integration. Examine packaging: Authentic Apple packaging has specific fonts, precise printing, and often unique environmental-friendly features (like sticker-less packaging on newer models). Fakes may have subtle differences in font, color, or construction. So, yes, "AirPods 4" are real, but always be cautious and purchase from reputable sources to avoid counterfeits. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

submitted byCat - 1 month agoA: Hi Jerseyladi, thanks for reaching out about Apple AirPods 4 Yes, you'll find a USB C Charging case inside the box with your AirPods 4 If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Are these real Apple AirPods
A: I recommend putting in the serial number to confirm. Mine are not.
submitted by - 12 days agoA: Hi Dakota, thanks for reaching out about Apple AirPods 4 Yes, these are authentic Apple AirPods, new in box never opened or used. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.
