1-Day Deal Drops AirPods 4 to a New $85 Low Before Black Friday

The best budget AiPods are cheaper than ever before — but they won’t be for long.

Black Friday is almost here and the deals are already picking up steam. If you’re in the market for Apple deals, it’s one of the best events of the year to score real savings — — but you don’t have to wait until after Thanksgiiving to score a record-low price on AirPods.

You can pick up the entry-level AirPods 4 for just $85 right now. That’s thanks to a one-day sale at Best Buy that Amazon is matching, knocking $45 off the usual price and dropping the AirPods 4 lower than ever before weeks ahead of Black Friday proper.

Apple’s AirPods 4 are available in two formats, and this is the version without active noise cancellation. These AirPods will usually run you $129 (the ANC model typically retails for $179), but with this discount, you’ll pay only $85. These AirPods have been redesigned so they fit more comfortably. Apple’s H2 chip allows for voice isolation whenever you’re in situations that require you to take calls in a noisy environment. The AirPods 4 also offer personalized spatial audio and a battery life of up to 20 hours.

These latest AirPods are dust- and waterproof and include a smaller case for easier carrying. You can also use them with Siri for added voice control options, which lets you start calls or choose your audio. Plus, you can now shake your head or nod to respond to any prompts received.

Why this deal matters

Apple makes superb audio gear, and the AirPods offer good sound quality and a comfortable fit for most people. «They may not be quite as cheap or as small as the AirPods 2, but they sound a lot better and have a lot more features,» says CNET’s audio expert David Carnoy, who thought $100 would be a good price for them. These AirPods don’t have noise-canceling features, but for just $85, this is a deal you should seriously consider.

Hurry to Nab the Baseus Bowie MH1 Headphones for Over Half Off With This Early Black Friday Deal

This deal drops the price of this premium pair to just $47, but this discount ends soon.

High-quality noise-canceling headphones can cost a pretty penny, especially if you are after adaptive ANC, all-day comfort, and a reliable battery life. Most options with all these features sit well over $100, but we just found a way to score a premium pair for less than $50.

Amazon has a solid early Black Friday deal on the Baseus Bowie MH1 headphones. You can get them for 20% off right now, which drops the price to $80. But stack that with the $25 on-page coupon and use the promo code 8JWTGEUN at checkout, and you slash another $33 off. That brings the final price down to just $47, which is a steal considering all the features you are going to enjoy.

The headphones come with cloud-soft protein leather earcups with resilient memory foam for cloud-like comfort. The pair is capable of blocking up to 99.8% of noise with –48 dB deep noise cancellation, and it adapts to your surroundings as needed.

The 36mm drivers and full-range LCP diaphragms give you clear, rich sound no matter what you listen to. In addition, with Baseus Immersive Spatial Acoustics, the audio surrounds you for a more natural listening experience. For clearer calls, the headphones also pack 5-mic sound sensors with AI-powered voice enhancement and wind-noise reduction. You won’t have to repeat yourself constantly.

Battery-wise, you get up to 80 hours of playtime with ANC off, and 55 hours with it on. A quick 10-minute top-up can also get you up to an additional 10 hours of playback, which is great for when you’re out and about.

Why this deal matters

High-end audio gear doesn’t come cheap. This deal takes over 50% off a powerful pair of headphones, making the upgrade easy. It won’t last long, though, so it’s best to snap it up sooner rather than later.
