The AirPods 4 are about as barebones as AirPods come, but they're still packed with features. Spatial Audio is on board for example, something you'd have to pay more for on the old model. 5 hours of battery isn't the very best, but they're a great on boarding place for the AirPods line.

iPhone 17: free w/ unlimited @ Verizon
Verizon has the best early Black Friday deal on the
iPhone 17 because when you commit to a 36-month agreement with its $65/month Welcome Unlimited plan for a single line, the carrier discounts the phone to free. Usually you'd be charged $23.05/month for 36 months to pay off the cost of the iPhone 17, but this deal makes it so that you're not paying that rate. The only thing you're paying monthly is for the service.
