Many retailers in the U.K. are also offering discounts on older models, just keep in mind that a non-ANC pair of AirPods 4 at $129/£129 would be a better choice than £109 for AirPods 2nd gen, as we have seen at Argos.

AirPods deals for Cyber Monday 2024: Our advice

Apple’s newest earbuds are the AirPods 4, which come in two models, a basic AirPods 4 that retails for $129/£129 and an upgraded version with Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) for $179/£179. The two models are identical with the same great sound quality, battery life, and features, other than ANC. So, even if you find a good price on AirPods 2 or AirPods 3, it’s probably worth spending more and getting the AirPods 4 instead—they sound and fit much better. Also, considering that the AirPods 4 without ANC at $129/£129 offers better features than the AirPods 3 that used to sell for $179/£179, it would have to be a really good deal to choose them over the newer buds.

Similarly, Apple recently updated the AirPods Max with USB-C for charging, replacing the Lightning port. But they have no other new features, so if you find a better deal on the Lightning version, consider that model instead.

Finally, the 2nd-generation AirPods Pro hasn’t been updated in a couple of years, but Apple keeps adding features to keep them fresh. The latest is Hearing Protection, which has a clinical-grade hearing test to turn them into an over-the-counter hearing aid.

Apple doesn’t ever discount AirPods for Cyber Monday or Black Friday, but it does give away gift cards with purchases. In 2024 you can get a gift card worth $75/£60 with the purchase of AirPods Max; a $50/£40 Apple Gift Card with the AirPods Pro 2, and a $25/£20 Apple Gift Card with the AirPods 4.

	2024	2023	2022
AirPods 4	$25	n/a	n/a
AirPods Pro (2nd generation)	$50	$50	$50
AirPods Max	$75	$75	$75

The voucher may not be money off the AirPods, but it is money off your next purchase, or a saving on all your monthly subscription payments if you credit it to your account. More here: Apple Black Friday 2024: What you need to know about Apple’s sale.

Because the AirPods 4 are so new we aren’t seeing big savings from other resellers, so the $25 offer is a decent one. A $50 voucher with the AirPods Pro and $75 with the AirPods Max aren’t bad either, but other retailers are selling them for cheaper, at least until they run out of stock.
