Apple AirPods 4 vs Apple AirPods Pro 2: Prime Day Deals
Prime Day hasn’t always delivered good deals on Apple, but something has changed this year. We’ve already been treated to impressive deals on iPads, MacBooks, Apple Watches, and AirPods, which is great news for Apple fanatics looking to upgrade for less.
Choosing Between AirPods 4 and AirPods Pro 2
Prime Day 2025 has delivered discounts on Apple AirPods 4 ($99) and Apple AirPods Pro 2 ($149). According to camelcamelcamel, that’s the lowest-ever price for the Apple AirPods 4. And the same goes for the Apple AirPods Pro 2. So how are you supposed to pick?
In our roundup of the best AirPods to buy, Mashable’s Apple expert Bethany Allard writes that the Apple Airpods Pro 2 offer “well-rounded sound, impressive active noise cancellation, plenty of portability, and a price that (if you catch it at the right time) doesn’t exceed $200.” Well that time has come, folks.
We asked Bethany Allard to compare these Prime Day deals: “The short version of this matchup: if you want active noise cancellation, grab the AirPods Pro. The longer version: the AirPods Pro drop downless frequently than the AirPods 4, making it a better deal to grab when you spot it. They’re also an all around better pair of earbuds, with ANC, four sizes of silicone ear tips for a more secure fit, and an additional hour of listening time per charge (even with ANC). If you’re between these two deals, I recommend going with the Pros.”
