Apple AirPod 4 ANC Brand New

Description

The AirPods 4 with ANC are Apple’s open-ear wireless earbuds that bring Active Noise Cancellation to a non-sealing design for the first time. Powered by the H2 chip, they deliver improved sound, effective (though not class-leading) noise reduction, and intelligent listening features while maintaining the lightweight, comfortable open fit that many users prefer over in-ear tips.

Design and Fit
• Open-ear design (no silicone tips) for a natural, less invasive feel that’s great for all-day wear and awareness.
• Redesigned shape with a shorter stem and improved stability.
• Each bud: Height 1.19 in (30.2 mm), Width 0.72 in (18.3 mm), Depth 0.71 in (18.1 mm), Weight 0.15 oz (4.3 g).
• Charging case (USB-C) with built-in speaker for Find My alerts: Height 1.82 in (46.2 mm), Width 1.97 in (50.1 mm), Depth 0.83 in (21.2 mm), Weight 1.22 oz (34.7 g). Supports wireless charging (Qi and Apple Watch chargers) — the smallest such case from Apple.
• IP54 dust, sweat, and water resistance for buds and case (suitable for workouts and light rain, but not submersion).

Audio Performance
• Custom high-excursion Apple driver and high dynamic range amplifier for richer bass and clearer sound than previous non-Pro models.
• Active Noise Cancellation — reduces low-frequency noise (e.g., airplane engines, traffic) surprisingly well for an open design, though less effective than sealed in-ear models like AirPods Pro.
• Transparency mode, Adaptive Audio (automatically blends ANC and Transparency based on environment), and Conversation Awareness (lowers media volume when you speak).
• Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, Adaptive EQ, and Voice Isolation for calls.
• Sound profile: Balanced and enjoyable for everyday listening, with good clarity but a narrower soundstage compared to Pro models. Excellent integration with Apple devices.

Key Features
• Force sensor on the stem: Press to play/pause, answer calls, skip tracks; hold for Siri (or just say “Siri”).
• Seamless pairing, automatic switching between Apple devices, and firmware updates.
• Find My integration with Precision Finding and case speaker.
• Live Translation (real-time conversation translation via Apple Intelligence on supported devices).
• No volume swipe controls (unlike some Pro models).

Battery Life
• Up to 4 hours listening with ANC on (up to 5 hours with noise control off).
• Total with case: Up to 20 hours with ANC / 30 hours without.
• Talk time: Up to 4.5 hours per charge.
• Quick charge: 5 minutes in the case gives about 1 hour of listening.
• Real-world results can vary; ANC reduces playtime noticeably.

Connectivity and Compatibility
• Bluetooth 5.3.
• Full features (Spatial Audio, Adaptive Audio, etc.) shine on iOS 18+, iPadOS 18+, macOS Sequoia, and later Apple devices.
• Works with Android and other devices via Bluetooth, but with limited features (no Spatial Audio or advanced modes).

Other Details
• In the box: AirPods 4 with ANC, USB-C charging case, documentation (USB-C cable sold separately).
• Eco-friendly: High recycled content in materials and 100% fiber-based packaging.
• Color: White only.

The AirPods 4 with ANC are ideal for users who want comfortable open-ear buds with useful noise cancellation, long total battery life, and deep Apple ecosystem integration — without the in-ear seal of the Pro models. ANC performs better than expected for the design but doesn’t match the superior isolation and battery of AirPods Pro 3. They’re a great middle-ground option for everyday use, calls, workouts, and travel.
