New Apple AirPods 4 drop to lowest-ever price in Black Friday UK sales
As usual, we haven’t seen any deals from Apple itself – as we covered in does Apple do Black Friday? – but that doesn’t mean we won’t see discounts on their products, for instance, we’ve also seen the best iPad Black Friday deals, Apple Watch Black Friday deals and MacBook Black Friday deals.
Below we’ve assembled a list of the very best AirPods deals, from the AirPods 4th gen to even the AirPods Pro, and if you want the TLDR version, the best deal we’ve found is £50 off the Apple AirPods (3rd generation) with MagSafe Charging Case.
