Reviewers celebrate the superb sound, describing “clear highs, deep bass and balanced audio,” whether they’re watching movies, listening to podcasts or chatting with loved ones. In fact, those who make a lot of calls for work say they can’t believe they didn’t grab these earbuds sooner, as they’re comfortable to wear for long periods of time, seamlessly pair and switch between your apple devices, boast a hefty battery life with a compact charging case and let you voice “come through clearly even in noisy environments.”

You might assume this set is the same as previous models — but respectfully, you’d be wrong.

The AirPods 4 feature the most up-to-date H2 processing chip, making integration with your phone or computer easier and faster than ever. The updated active noise cancellation doesn’t just block external sound when you want it to, but also includes a transparency mode, adaptive audio and a conversation awareness feature, giving you even more control.

As one happy fan says, the 4s “have met and exceeded every single one of my expectations,” saying they were “blown away” the first time they used them. “Had a room mate who snores like a truck going uphill and I put these in, set it to noise cancelation and boom! I could sleep peacefully” another wrote. “Get them!!”
