As part of its Memorial Day sale and joining the rest of the holiday weekend Apple deals we are tracking, Amazon has now dropped the AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation back down to the best price of the year at $148.99 shipped. You’ll also find Geek Squad refurbished units marked down to $114.99 shipped right now. Details below.
Regularly $179, Apple’s latest AirPods 4 with ANC released last fall alongside the iPhone 16 lineup and the black Apple Watch Ultra 2. They have now fallen back down to the $148.99 shipped we tracked last time around to land on par with Amazon’s best new price of the year. In fact, only once for a few days at the beginning of December 2024 did we see them sell for any less than this there.
While I tend to be a little bit hesitant with refurb units when it comes to something like earbuds that I’m going to be sticking into my head, if I was going to go with refurbs there are really only a few sources I would trust and Best Buy’s official Geek Squad listings are one of them:
- Refurb AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation $115 (Reg. $179 new)
- Refurb AirPods 4 $90 (Reg. $129)
These refurb units ship with the AirPods themselves, the “Charging Case (USB-C) with speaker, documentation, (USB-C Charge Cable sold separately) and 90-days warranty.”
Again, I personally tend to prefer to go brand-new with earbuds, but these are some solid options at the lowest price we can find right now for a set of refurbished AirPods 4 units from a source with a solid track record.
Whether you opt for the active noise cancelation action or not, you will score Siri hands- and voice-free interactions, Voice Isolation, and Personalized Spatial Audio tech, and the redesigned earbud form-factor featuring a “refined contour, shorter stem, and quick-press controls for music or calls” alongside a case that is the “smallest in the industry with wireless charging”
