  "summary": "Walmart is offering a deal on AirPods 4, pricing them at $79. This is reportedly the lowest price available for the earbuds. According to AppleInsider, Amazon is currently sold out of AirPods 4, which may mean Walmart's offer is short-lived.\n\nThe deal is seen as a challenge to Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale. Amazon's sale is currently underway, and it is one of the best times of year to buy AirPods, although pricing on the latest models has not yet dropped.\n\nOther deals are available during Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale, including discounts on Nintendo games and Switch 2 editions, as reported by IGN. However, these deals are mostly exclusive to Prime members.",
