Apple's Black Friday headphone deal brings AirPods to their best price ever, EarPods under $16

If you’ve spent any time on the Cyclingnews homepage in the last month, you’ll probably notice that we’ve been keeping a close eye on sales.

In our eternal quest to bring our readers the best Black Friday bike deals, a few days ago we spotted a deal on the ever-popular Apple AirPods Pro 2 wireless earbuds.

The AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 with ANC both offer active noise cancellation (ANC), but the Pro 2 offers a more advanced and immersive experience. The AirPods Pro 2 feature an in-ear design with silicone tips that offers excellent noise isolation, slightly better sound quality, and additional features such as adaptive transparency and personalized spatial audio. The ANC is more effective in the Pro 2 thanks to its deeper integration with the H2 chip and an overall better fit.

The AirPods 4th generation and AirPods 3rd generation are similar in design and feature the classic open-fit style, but the 4th generation has a more compact design and a smaller body. In terms of sound, the 4th generation benefits from the H2 chip and offers improved audio quality, better bass and longer battery life – up to 6 hours of listening time with a total of 30 hours of use of the case. The 3rd generation AirPods still deliver great sound with spatial audio and adaptive EQ, but their case allows for 24 hours of total use.

While both models support spatial audio, the 4th generation AirPods offer better performance thanks to the H2 chip and also offer more efficient power and improved connectivity. Compared to the 3rd generation push buttons, they also have a slightly more intuitive typing interface that allows for volume adjustment. At retail, the $179 4th Gen AirPods are a step up from the $169 3rd Gen and offer some key battery, sound, and performance improvements.

The AirPods Max and Sony WH-1000XM5 are both premium noise-cancelling headphones, but they meet different needs. Featuring a premium construction with aluminum earcups and a stainless steel headband, the AirPods Max offer excellent sound quality and spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, making them a great option for Apple users who want seamless integration and premium sound. They offer up to 20 hours of battery life with ANC, but are more expensive in retail price.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 offers a lighter, more comfortable design, excellent noise cancellation and up to 30 hours of battery life. They feature a balanced sound profile with customizable EQ settings and support for LDAC for high-resolution audio. The WH-1000XM5 are cheaper and offer features such as multipoint connectivity and adaptive sound control. They’re a good choice for those looking for high-quality, customizable audio and longer battery life, especially for non-Apple users.
