  "account": "Apple has recently unveiled its new Apple Watch Ultra 4 and Apple Watch Series 12 lineup, along with the all-new AirPods 5. These innovative devices hit the shelves on September 18, and ahead of their launch, pre-orders for the new lineup are now available on Amazon. Customers can already save on these cutting-edge products.\n\nThe AirPods 5, for instance, come with enhanced features at more affordable prices. Notably, both models now boast Active Noise Cancellation, a feature absent in the previous AirPods 4 generation. However, there are some differences between the two models. The more budget-friendly version lacks on-stem volume controls and a wireless charging case. On the other hand, the higher-end model offers an additional hour of battery life.\n\nOur hands-on experience with the AirPods 5 has been overwhelmingly positive, and we're eagerly anticipating more insights on their improved Active Noise Cancellation.\n\nIn addition to these major devices, Apple has also introduced new bands for the Apple Watch Series 4 and Ultra 4, and a few additional accessories are available on Amazon. If you're considering purchasing any of these new Apple products, we'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments section.\n\nFor more Apple news, be sure to check out 9to5Mac on YouTube.",
