If you want the best sound and active noise cancellation you can get in a pair of Apple earbuds, you’ll likely want to pick up the second-gen AirPods Pro. The in-ears offer a few features you won’t find in their cheaper siblings, including intuitive swipe-based controls, more robust water resistance, and multiple silicone ear tips for a customizable fit. Thanks to a recent iOS 18 update, they also now double as FDA-approved hearing aids.
That being said, both the entry-level AirPods 4 and the AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation are excellent earbuds in their own right. They both deliver exceptionally clear voice call quality and produce the same high-quality sound, which benefits from a thicker layer of bass than Apple’s previous models despite their open design. The main difference is that the step-up AirPods 4 offer several Pro-like features, including ANC and a wireless charging case that features a built-in speaker and support for tracking via Apple’s Find My app.

A few more ways to save
- Speaking of Apple, you can also subscribe to Apple Music for relatively cheap right now. Apple is offering new and eligible subscribers six months of Apple Music for just $2.99 through February 27th. An individual subscription typically costs $10.99 per month, so the current promo equates to about $63 in savings. The streaming service grants ad-free access to more than 100 million songs, along with spatial audio and Dolby Atmos tracks for a more immersive experience.
- You can pick up a second-gen Blink Mini 2 for just $19.99 ($20 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target, which matches its all-time low (Amazon is also selling it with a Weather Resistant Power Adapter for $29.98). The newest Mini is a compact 1080p security camera with support for motion alerts and two-way audio, much like its predecessor. However, unlike the original, the latest model comes with on-device person detection and IP65 waterproofing, so you can use it outside if you purchase Blink’s optional outdoor adapter.

- Amazon is currently selling three Eero Pro 6E routers for $499.99 ($150 off) with a $100 Amazon gift card, which is one of the best deals we’ve seen on the tri-band mesh routers. You can also buy them in a two-pack for $299.99 ($100 off) or a standalone unit for $184.99 ($65 off). While the newer Eero 7 routers outshine the Pro 6E spec-wise, they’re also much pricier. The last-gen models support the Wi-Fi 6E band, and a two- or three-pack of them can cover most homes (each router covers up to 2,000 square feet). Read our review.
