• Apple discontinued the AirPods 2 and 3 in favor of two AirPods 4 variants.
• Unlike their predecessors, both AirPods 4 models dont include a charging cable in the box.
• The new AirPods models have USB-C ports, so most users likely wont need to buy an extra cable separately.

Earlier this week, Apple introduced two AirPods 4 models, along with the iPhone 16 line and Apple Watch Series 10. It also discontinued the AirPods 2 and 3, which sold for $129 and $179, respectively. For the same price tags, users can now buy AirPods 4 with or without ANC — based on the tier they opt for. Notably, though, neither AirPods 4 model includes a charging cable in the box.

Apples technical specifications webpage highlights that*the latest AirPods boxes no longer offer a USB-C charging cable. Those who dont already own a compatible charger will need to buy one separately. For reference, the AirPods 2 and 3 did offer a charging cable, and the AirPods Pro 2 and Max continue to do so.
