  "account": "Woot is offering a discounted Apple AirPods 5 earbuds with active noise cancelation for the first time since its release. For today only, customers can purchase a new and unused pair for $119, which includes a $10 instant discount. Amazon Prime members can take advantage of free shipping, while others will incur a $5 delivery fee. These are the most affordable AirPods equipped with noise canceling technology. The Apple AirPods 5 were released on September 19, 2026, less than two months ago. The main difference between the AirPods 5 and the previous AirPods 4 is that noise cancelation is now standard on all models, eliminating the need to pay an additional $50 for the feature. Other improvements include a more durable IP57 rated shell and an Apple H2 chip that enhances Transparency Mode. Apart from these enhancements, the features are largely the same as before. The decision to choose between AirPods 4 with ANC or AirPods Pro depends on individual preferences. AirPods 5 are open-ear earbuds with non-adjustable tips that sit outside the ear canal, providing a more comfortable fit and allowing users to stay aware of their surroundings. In contrast, AirPods Pro are in-ear earbuds with adjustable tips that create a seal in the ear canal, resulting in better passive noise isolation and superior audio quality. Ultimately, price remains a significant factor in the decision-making process.
