For canny shoppers seeking a bargain, Sky Mobile is offering a way to split the price of Apple AirPods 4, dropping the pair to £4 per month with no upfront fee. A world away from shelling out £99 at Amazon or £119 at Apple’s own store in one go.
The £4 monthly package, which amounts to roughly 13p a day based on a typical 30-day month, includes the AirPods 4 with passive noise cancellation. Those wanting superior audio performance can choose the AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation at £5.50 per month.
Nevertheless, for those desiring the absolute finest, Sky also carries the Apple AirPods Pro 3 at £7 per month – a small price gap that could very well justify the upgrade. Apple unveiled this newest model in September alongside the iPhone 17 series, confidently declaring it delivers the ‘world’s best’ in-ear Active Noise Cancellation (ANC).

According to Apple, the Pro 3 offers up to four times more ANC than both the original AirPods Pro and AirPods 4 with ANC. The earbuds arrive fitted with Adaptive Audio and Transparency modes, plus personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking.
Boosting their remarkable specification list, the AirPods Pro 3 bring heart rate monitoring during workouts, along with Hearing Aid, Hearing Protection and live translation features. Apple claims the Pro 3 can provide eight hours of listening on a single charge, with the MagSafe Charging Case ready to refresh the battery while you’re on the move. The crucial factor with Sky Mobile’s AirPods deal is the 36-month contract duration, reports Bristol Live.
Apple AirPods 4
Instead of dishing out hundreds outright at Apple and Amazon, shoppers can split the price of the AirPods 4 to £4 a month, which is around 13p a day. The pair have an open ear design and ANC.
Those who favour shorter terms can choose 24 or 12-month arrangements, although these involve steeper monthly costs, reports the Daily Record. While monthly payment schemes generally cost more than buying outright, they provide a more affordable alternative to paying the complete sum upfront.
For example, Amazon retails the AirPods Pro 3 for £199, while Sky proves pricier overall but spread over 36-months. Also available at Amazon and discounted are the Soundcore C50i by Anker earbuds, priced at £47.99 rather than the standard £59.99 cost. These are brilliant for those seeking dependable technology but restricted to a tighter budget.
Additionally, on offer are an Apple competitor and a set from Samsung. The Galaxy Buds 4 can be reduced by 15%, knocking pounds off the typical £159 price – these are direct competitors to the AirPods 4 and both feature an open fit design.
The AirPods Pro 3 enjoy a 4.5-star rating on Amazon from more than 3,000 reviews, with one delighted purchaser remarking: “Superb noise-cancelling and secure fit in ear. Sound quality is great, and the battery life means you can use these all day.
The touch control and transparency feature is also great when you want to be connected to your surroundings.”
Another reviewer observed: “You know what to expect from Apple. “Amazing build quality and great features.
“They sound great, and the active noise cancellation is insane.” Nevertheless, despite awarding five stars, the same buyer issued a warning: “The ear tips are prone to tearing when removing them, so just be cognisant of this if you decide to change the ear tip size.”
Meanwhile, this customer states: “They are the best headphones I’ve had, the noise cancellation is amazing, and the transparency when running outdoors is great. I can hear my music but also everything around, never had anything like them before.”
