"Not to be dramatic, but I feel borderline naked walking outside without my AirPods. They're basically my emotional support gadgetdrowning out the chaos of city life, keeping me in the zone before a big meeting, or helping me decompress after a long day. And even as a devoted small-bag person (where every square inch counts), they always make the cut."
"My top pick: the Esquire editor-loved AirPods 4, down from $130 to an all-time-low of $85. These don't have active noise cancellation (ANC)but honestly, you might not even need it. I've been using my 2nd-generation model for years (no ANC either), and they still do a solid job of dulling background noise while letting me stay just aware enough of my surroundings. If you do crave full-on sensory deprivation, though, the AirPods 4 with ANC are reduced to $150."
"You can also snag 20 percent off the AirPods 3rd Generationa slightly sleeker design with longer battery life, minus ANC and the latest processorand $50 off the AirPods Max, arguably some of the coolest over-ears on the market. Even the classic wired buds are just $16 (the perfect nostalgic stocking stuffer, if you ask me). Prefer a more customized fit? The AirPods Pro 2, complete with silicone tips, upgraded sound, and spatial audio that actually moves with you, is currently $200 (originally $239)."
