Apple AirPods 4 gain ANC, AirPods Max get USB-C


AirPods Pro 2 also gets new hearing protection and aid features

Although the AirPods 4 don’t have ear tips to create a complete seal, Apple says its ANC technology is advanced enough to reduce environmental noises like airplane engines, city traffic, and more. Instead, the AirPods Max now comes in midnight, starlight, blue, purple, and orange, and they now offer USB-C charging for more convenience. Apple says it's still clearing the functionality with the FDA, but once approved, users will soon be able to use the AirPods 2 to boost sounds such as speech and other environmental noises in real-time.
