You can once again buy the AirPods 4 for less than $90
Regardless of which version of the AirPods 4 you purchase, these earbuds deliver more bass-rich sound than their respective predecessors. They also boast the new Voice Isolation feature, which improves voice calls by noticeably reducing background noise while making your voice sound clearer. With an upgraded IP54 water and dust resistance rating, the AirPods 4 are also now as suitable for outdoor adventures as they are for sweaty gym sessions. And, as you'd expect, both pair well with the rest of Apple's ecosystem, so you can automatically switch between your Apple devices, make hands-free Siri voice commands, and more.
The active noise cancellation on the pricier AirPods 4 doesn't drown out noise as effectively as the AirPods Pro, but still works well given the open design of the earbuds. Plus, the higher-end line offers a few other extra features not available for the entry-level pair. For instance, the more expensive AirPods 4 supports wireless charging and offers a transparency mode. And should you misplace them, they're easier to locate thanks to support for Apple's Find My app and the fact the case can emit sounds.
Apple's AirPods 4 are the latest update to its base-model wireless earbuds. The hard plastic buds should have improved audio quality and spatial audio with head tracking for the first time. Read our review.

Indian Apple reseller Ample to grow revenue by a third as it expands presence, portfolio, CEO says
By Praveen Paramasivam (Reuters) -Indian Apple reseller Ample is banking on store expansion and adding more brands and clients to achieve 35% revenue growth in fiscal year 2026, its chief executive said. The Bengaluru-based firm, which supplies tech products such as Apple computers to over 1,500 clients including SAP, Broadcom, Infosys, and Wipro, operates more than 120 stores across India. Nearly 50 of these sell Apple products, while others showcase brands like Under Armour and ASICS. The firm plans to expand its footprint to approximately 175 stores across brands within three years, Ample founder and CEO Rajesh Narang said on Monday, though he declined to specify a target for Apple-only stores. Ample's revenue stood at 17 billion rupees ($197.33 million) for the fiscal year ended March 31. The company is focusing on partnerships with global capability centers, hubs that manage operations, finance, and research for large multinational firms, to drive growth, Narang added. Apple, which reported nearly $8 billion in sales in India for the year through March 2024, operates its own stores in New Delhi and Mumbai. Other resellers in the market include Aptronix and iPlanet. While Apple also plans to expand its presence in India, Narang said that would benefit partners like Ample, as the market tends to grow with the brand's presence. The firm plans to list on stock exchanges within five years to fund its growth strategy. "With our growth ambition, there will be a need for capital," Narang said.

Our Galaxy Z Fold 7 opens perfectly flat, but shoppers are reporting issue with demo units
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Some shoppers have noticed that Galaxy Z Fold 7 demo units in stores aren't opening fully flat, sparking concerns online. Other users, including our team, report no such issues, suggesting this might be limited to specific demo units. Samsung's updated hinge design could still fall within the 178.5–181.5 degree opening range, but we're awaiting official confirmation and durability specs. A number of shoppers are reporting that Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 demo units in retail stores aren't opening completely flat. The discussion started on Reddit (spotted by Android Central), where a user posted a photo showing a Fold 7 with a noticeable bend (see below), far from the flat profile they expected to see. 'While the phones in store probably get abused a fair bit, considering how little they have been available to try out in store, this worries me a bit,' the Reddit user noted. Reddit A few others have joined the thread, claiming they've also noticed the same issue at retail locations like Best Buy. But not everyone's had the same experience, with a couple of people also chiming in to say they've noticed no issues on the demo units they've seen. Personally, I've used two different Galaxy Z Fold 7 units since launch, and both open completely flat. When placed on a table, there's only a negligible visible gap where the tiny hinge slightly protrudes from the frame, but no curvature like what's seen in the Reddit photo. None of my colleagues have seen any signs of the screen failing to unfold fully flat, either. For some context, when Samsung introduced its 'zero-gap' hinge on the Galaxy Z Fold 5, it said that the fully open angle typically falls between 178.5 and 181.5 degrees. That might still apply to the Fold 7, although we'll need to confirm with the company. The Fold 7 comes with a new, thinner, and lighter Armor FlexHinge, which, in my experience, has visibly reduced creasing. Samsung also claims it strengthens durability by distributing stress more evenly, though we don't know its official durability rating yet. For comparison, the Fold 6 is rated for over 200,000 open/close cycles. At this point, it's unclear why some retail Fold 7 units aren't folding flat. They might just be worn out from overuse on display, or they may be defective. It's also possible that the people reporting the issue didn't fully unfold the device. It definitely doesn't look like a widespread problem at this point. We'll contact Samsung for clarification and update this article if we hear back. Got a tip? Talk to us!
