Using apple headphones with an iphone made me realize Apple made it more than clear that it wants to stay within its own ecosystem. No syncing issues whatsoever. I can finally place phone calls with headphones, as well. The sound is decent, too. A star removed for how uncomfortable these are, essentially after half an hour, one has to remove to stop the pressure on the ear. Apple also makes headphones with a silicone attachment that are in a much higher comfort category. I can't explain it other than Apple asking you to pay extra money for comfort. Plus, based on the construction, Apple made these non-repairable and so once the battery life decreases below reasonable use, they will have to be added to the pile of electronic waste.

Tbh, I needed new AirPods bc my older ones were acting weird, buuuuut these AirPods I love em sooooo much. The noise cancellation is chef's kiss!! Also the other features like it adapting to the noise going on around you or turning off music when it realizes your talking to someone. My only issue is that I believe they were made for a certain ear type. They tend to fall out of my ear a lot even if I do the turn/twist method. Also if you sweat a lot, they WILL fall out. I'm trying to find a work around. Overall, I love em they are AirPods but with ANC…which is rlly cool.

So these are genuine apple AirPods, they work great and are everything I need. I have had them for about 7-8 months, still sound great and hold charge perfectly. I am talking extremely heavy use, 5-8 hours per day M-F constant phone calls. Sound quality is amazing. My only complaint is I can't charge them with a USB-C unless I want to sit and hold it the right way. So the work around is to use an Apple Watch charger or any wireless charger.

These AirPods deliver clean, immersive sound and effective ANC that noticeably cuts down background noise, great for commuting, work, or focused listening. They’re comfortable for extended wear and integrate seamlessly with Apple devices, making switching between devices effortless. They also charge fairly quickly, which is a big plus, and once charged they hold for at least a couple of hours, depending on frequency of use and whether ANC is on. For everyday listening, they’re reliable and convenient without constant recharging. Why I gave them 4 stars: The only drawback is a strange but very real issue, when you touch them in a certain spot, they emit a god-awful sound that can only be described as nails on a chalkboard. It’s sharp, unpleasant, and especially jarring if you’re adjusting them mid-use. It doesn’t happen every time, but it’s annoying enough to knock off a star. That aside, they’re still excellent earbuds with strong performance, fast charging, and dependable battery life, just be prepared for that one unfortunate sensory moment. 🎧✨

Apple products are made of high quality. But oddly these don’t seem to last as long as older models. Bluetooth connectivity is a breeze. Noise cancellation seems to work okay. Guess I expected more. The only sad part for me is the charge duration when in use. Like I said they don’t seem to last as long as I remembered them lasting in earlier generations. That’s why I still use the wired buds from apple and change them out to these wireless iPods when my iPhone needs a charging.

Got the AirPods 4 for my mom for Christmas. Ever since she got them she has loved them! The active noise cancellation work well. Additionally the case charges with an Apple Watch charger so that's a plus. Overall if your looking for a good wireless earbuds and don't want to break the bank purchase the AirPods 4 with Active noise cancellation.

AMAZING sound quality and noise cancellation for the price. This thing is on-par with over ear headphones I've had. Obviously, the over ear headphones do sound a *bit* better but they're also double the price. These things sound outstanding for the price you're paying.

such good headphones, i love the fact they’ll turn down when i’m talking its very helpful at work, and when i have spanish speaking customers i can use the translation! the only thing i dislike is the shape and material of the ear pieces, my gen1 pros are a lot more comfortable. After a hour or so of wearing the 4s my ears will start to hurt

In my personal opinion, I don't believe they are high-quality for comfort in the ears. They honestly are extremely uncomfortable and they slide out easily. I was thinking for a fourth generation it would be a little more comfortable. I prefer the second GEN design with the soft tips and replace ability of the soft tips I was expecting more from the fourth generation. They’re not bad at all when it comes to sound quality they’re actually pretty excellent the transparency mode, adaptive, listening mode, and noise cancellation are pretty.great. The conversational awareness could definitely be modified more. In the sense of instead of it completely turning the music down, just kind of muffle it down to a tolerable level that you could hear the conversation and still be listening to.your music. The AirPods in comfortability do not sit well in the inner ear. I have a scab now from it rubbing raw on my inner right ear. It honestly is hurt pretty bad. They just are too hard of a design.

Two areas of disappointment: 1) I’m disappointed with how easily they dislodge from my ear canals. Normal walking steps have jarred loose…falling without any prior indication. 2) I’m also disappointed with the short \- 2 hours of operation time before they require recharging.
