Apple's new AirPods 4 wireless earbuds have a hidden capacitive setup button on the front that replaces the rear setup button found on previous models, reports Macotakara.

The AirPods 4 do not feature the setup button found on the back of previous AirPods models. Instead, there is a hidden capacitive button built just below the status light in the center front of the charging case.

When you open the AirPods 4 charging case, the status light reappears, and you can double-tap the center front of the case to enter pairing mode. This invisible button is also used to reset the AirPods 4 to their factory settings.

AirPods 4 were unveiled at Apple's September 2024 special event. There are two distinct models available: AirPods 4 and AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC).

With incredible sound quality, up to 24-hour battery life with the charging case, and an iconic design, the original AirPods offered wireless convenience and seamless pairing with the Apple ecosystem of products. That experience gets even better with AirPods 4 and AirPods 4 with ANC, offering a brand-new fit and an array of powerful features and capabilities.
