Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation
They cost a little more than the entrylevel AirPods 4, but these ones add active noisecancelling to the feature set, and it’s surprisingly effective for their semiopen fit. They’re a good alternative to the flagship AirPods Pro model. We’ve used them on a flight and can confirm that they capably silenced the engine noise.

Apple MacBook Air 15inch Laptop with M4 chip
With the 15inch MacBook Air M4, you’re getting all the great features of the smaller Air, but with a larger screen size that’s going to be better for multitasking and watching videos.

Most colour variations of the overear Beats Studio Pro headphones are now down to at least £175.00 from £349.99 – we’ve tried them, and they’re a great pair of cans for their noisecancelling, engaging sound, comfortable ear cups and seamless Apple device compatibility, with many of the features of the pricier AirPods Max included in this model.
