Apple AirPods 4 with ANC: $140
The fourth-generation AirPods are our pick for the best open earbuds with active noise canceling and even won an Editors’ Choice award.

They also come with a compact case that supports wireless charging and works with Find My.
Sennheiser Momentum 4: $200
If you’re looking for a seriously premium pair, these discounted Sennheiser earbuds will be tough to beat.
