AirPods 4 with ANC review: noise cancellation without ear tips
An open-fit design with active noise cancellation sounds like a contradiction. It works better than we expected.

Our take
A redesigned shape that fits more ears, a smaller case and USB-C. Simple, good earbuds.
We listen on commutes, flights and long days at a desk, and compare noise cancellation, call quality and fit against the earlier models we still own.
Pros
- Better fit than before
- Small case
- Good call quality
Cons
- No noise cancellation
- No wireless charging
