Apple AirPod Black Friday FAQs
Do AirPods get cheaper on Black Friday?
It's a rare sight to see Apple products on offer, but you'll be pleased to hear that, yes, AirPods do get cheaper on Black Friday. Take a look at the best deals we've spotted above.
Are AirPods noise cancelling?
It depends on the model of AirPod - while the standard AirPods are not noise cancelling, the AirPods Pro and AirPods Max are, offering Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to help block out noise for a more immersive listening experience.
What is the battery life on AirPods?
Again, battery life will depend on your model of AirPod but thanks to the charging case, you can get anywhere between 20-30 hours of listening time. In fact, 15 minutes of charge-time in the case will give you three hours.
Are AirPods really worth it?
If you're after good sound quality, long battery life, a comfortable fit (for most) and ANC (depending on the AirPod model), then absolutely. Plus if you're an avid Apple user, AirPods will seamlessly connect between your Apple devices, whether that's your iPhone or Mac. The main drawback of Apple AirPods is the price, which is why Black Friday and other sale events are an absolute win for getting that premium listening experience at a more affordable price.
