Description
Surround sound. Like a movie.
Personalized spatial audio with dynamic head tracking repositions sound around you, turning music, TV shows, movies and games into truly three-dimensional experiences.
The most applauded capabilities.
The powerful H2 chip debuts in AirPods 4, making music and calls sound better than ever. Intelligent features in AirPods 4 let them adapt to virtually anything — even complete silence.
Super clear calls.
Using advanced computational audio, Voice Isolation reduces background noise so you can be heard clearly during calls, even in noisy or windy environments.
Feel every note, rhythm and vibration.
Its acoustics have been revamped with a low-distortion transducer designed by Apple and a custom-made high-dynamic-range amplifier. Technicalities aside, these components make music reach an impressive level of detail, with precise highs and deeper lows.
Music for your ears only.
Adaptive EQ automatically tunes music to your ears. Internal microphones detect what you hear and adjust the mid and low frequencies so every song sounds as detailed as possible.
Real live voices.
High-resolution audio comes through your FaceTime conversations with the AAC‑ELD voice codec. And with personalized spatial audio, Group FaceTime calls sound more natural than ever.
Adaptive audio
Combines real-time active noise cancellation with ambient sound mode to keep decibels at bay wherever you are.
Ambient sound mode
The most natural way to talk on the phone, enjoy music or listen to a podcast without losing touch with the world around you.
Conversation Detection
This feature automatically lowers the volume on your headphones when you start talking to someone and turns it back up afterwards.
A hymn to comfort.
New internal architecture and contour design improvements make AirPods 4 fit more ear types than ever before
Improved body with pressure sensor.
The shorter body houses the battery, H2 chip, and a new pressure sensor that lets you control audio playback and calls with a simple pinch.
Dust, water and sweat resistance.
Both the earbuds and the charging case have an IP54 rating for resistance to dust, water, and sweat. So no amount of wild training or torrential rain will stop them.
A smaller case with a long-lasting battery.
It charges just as fast as the previous generation and is 10% smaller in size. The AirPods 4 case with Active Noise Cancellation charges wirelessly, making it the smallest in the industry for that convenience. It also comes with a built-in speaker so Find My can help you find your AirPods when they feel like playing hide-and-seek.
Up to 30 hours of audio playback with the case
Up to 5 hours of audio playback on a single charge
Instant connection.
AirPods 4 pair instantly with any device associated with your Apple ID. Just hold them near your iPhone or iPad and tap Connect.
They feel, then they sound.
AirPods 4 work seamlessly with your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. If you’re listening to music on your Mac and get a call on your iPhone, you can answer it without having to switch devices. AirPods 4 are smart enough to know when you take them off and put them back on to pause or resume what’s playing.
The Find app is a no-brainer.
Keep track of your AirPods 4 with the Find My app. See if they’re nearby, get alerts if they’ve moved out of Bluetooth range, and if you have the model with Active Noise Cancellation, play the speaker in the case to help you locate your AirPods 4.
Siri, waiting for orders.
Play music, make calls, get directions, or check your calendar by saying “Hey Siri” or just “Siri.” If your hands are full or you’d rather not speak out loud, you can nod or shake your head when Siri asks if you want to answer a call, listen to a text, or handle a notification.
Listening in company.
It’s easy to enjoy the same song or show on two pairs of AirPods.13 Just bring them close to your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV and they connect instantly.
