Apple AirPods 4:was £129 now£119 at Laptops DirectThese are very new, so any discount on them is good – though I’m hoping we’ll see another £10 dropped from the price later in Black Friday. The AirPods 4 feature a new design for all-day comfort, and pack Apple’s H2 chip, which supports Personalized Spatial Audio and voice isolation. You’re also getting a redesigned case with 30 hours of battery life and supports USB-C for wireless charging. This version doesn’t include noise cancellation, wireless charging or the Find My speaker in the case.
Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation:was £179 now£169 at AmazonIf you want Apple’s open-ear design that doesn’t go right into your ear canals, but you still want active noise cancellation to make it easier to hear your music, these are the buds for you. They also have spatial audio, Find My in the case (including a speaker), and wireless charging. They sound very fun, too, with a full sound. At £10 off, I’d still advice most people to wait for AirPods Pro 2 to fall to £180 again, and pay the little amount more for even better sound and features – but if you want this kind of ear fit, this is the best price for these so far.
Apple iPad 10.2 (2021):was £369.99 now£299 at ArgosThe 2021 iPad may be slightly older tech, but the 10.2-inch Retina display and A13 Bionic chip ensure excellent picture quality and superior performance to this day. The entry-level tablet can do it all without issue, according to ourApple iPad 10.2 review, whether that’s browsing the net, streaming media, light work, or playing games. Today’s deal at Argos brings the tablet down to £299, which is a match for the best price yet at the retailer.
Apple Watch Series 9 (41mm):was £349 now£299 at ArgosWhile it’s no longer the latest model on the market, no one can deny that the Apple Watch Series 9 isn’t an exceptional smartwatch - and one that’s still great for the vast majority of users. Alongside the S9 chipset and a great display, the Series 9 features all the excellent lifestyle and fitness apps these watches are known for as well as the exceptionally useful double-tap gesture control.
