Early Labor Day sales are here, with great deals on all kinds of tech, including TVs, iPads, and earbuds. If your audio game needs a bit of help, there are plenty of options available at great prices, from the latest Sony headphones to the buzzy new Nothing Headphones. Here are the best deals I’ve found so far.

As the name suggests, AirPods 4 are the fourth generation of Apple’s original earbuds featuring an open-ear design that is now iconic. It pairs well with all other Apple products, especially with the iPhone. And it works seamlessly between iPhones, iPads, and Macs. For Labor Day Sale, Amazon is discounting it down to $89.99, the lowest price ever.

While they lack Active Noise Cancellation (AirPods 4 with ANC are also discounted right now, for $139, but that’s not the lowest we’ve ever seen), they offer excellent audio performance and a good bass range.

The open-ear design of the AirPods 4 works better for people who don’t like the earbuds style from AirPods Pro. The open-ear design means that you can always hear the outside world, and it’s much safer to wear when you’re out and about. The case doesn’t support wireless charging, but it does have a USB-C port. The battery lasts up to five hours per charge, and the charging case takes it up to 30 hours of total listening time.

The AirPods 4 are the best-sounding open earbuds that PCMag has ever tested. The AirPods 4 received an ‘Excellent’ rating in PCMag’s review, noting that AirPods 4’s “sub-bass capabilities are a game changer for open earbuds, and the overall audio balance is solid thanks to Apple’s Adaptive EQ.”

If you’re looking for better audio quality and noise cancellation, you can look into the AirPods Pro 2 that are currently discounted to $169.
