AirPods Commercial Collection: Apple’s Earphones and Headphones Commercials (1–10)
AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation「Someday」
This commercial portrays a protagonist carrying the pain of heartbreak in a cold, icy world, while also conveying the Active Noise Cancellation feature of AirPods 4.
Although the protagonist’s expressions differ between past and present, both are memorably shown conversing with AirPods 4 in their ears.
The song playing during the somber scenes in the first half set in the icy world is “El Conticinio” by Guitarricadelafuente.
Composed solely of guitar and vocals, the simple piece—with its overall calm sound—powerfully conveys a sense of loneliness.
AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation「Someday」
This commercial conveys how the AirPods 4’s Active Noise Cancellation supports you every day, whether you’re happy or feeling lonely.
It shifts through different worlds—like moving from a lonely, ice-bound world to a past recollection, and then unfolding into a colorful world.
The song playing during the dance scene in the latter, colorful world is “Perfect.” The collision-like sound effects leave a strong impression, and the structure—where these intense sounds gradually increase—clearly communicates the song’s build-up.
While the overall mood isn’t exactly bright, it’s a curious track that still feels lively thanks to the layering of various sounds.
Apple AirPods “Spatial Audio Silhouette”
Harry Styles is a singer-songwriter with a wide-ranging musical style who has won widespread popularity.
As you know, he’s a member of the hit idol group One Direction.
His track Music for a Sushi Restaurant was released in 2022 and is used in the commercial AirPods: Silhouettes with Spatial Audio.
The sound is funky, evoking the vibe of the 1970s and 1980s.
Its upbeat melody pairs perfectly with the commercial’s striking visuals.
Apple AirPods Pro「Jump」
The commercial “AirPods Pro: Jump” features Kengo Sugino, who became the Japanese champion in the jump rope sport known as Double Dutch.
I’m not sure whether it was out of consideration for political correctness, but it’s great to see a Japanese person appearing in a global ad.
The song used in the commercial is “Fallin’ Apart (feat.
Denzel Curry & Pell)” by Young Franco, a music producer popular in Sydney.
It’s a stylish, upbeat hip-hop track that matches perfectly with the dance featured in the ad.
Apple “All-new AirPods 4, here.”
This is a new commercial for AirPods 4 that debuted in 2024.
It features shots of a woman dancing to the music, with on-screen text introducing the new features—a stylish, street-inspired production that feels very Apple.
The background track is “places to be,” released in 2024 by Fred again..
and Anderson .Paak.
Its breakbeat-style groove stands out, making it a very cool, energetic song.
The performance video released on YouTube is truly stunning, so if you love music, play an instrument, or compose, be sure to check it out.
Apple AirPods Pro “Silence the Noise”
This is a commercial that focuses on the noise-canceling feature of AirPods Pro, portraying how quiet it can get through a distinctive, imaginative world.
Various vehicles—including work trucks that typically make loud noises—are floating, and there’s even a parade happening in the air, creating a lively atmosphere.
Yet you can’t hear any of it, which depicts the silence brought about by the elimination of noise.
What really highlights this silence in the visuals is TK Maiza’s rendition of “Where Is My Mind.” It’s a cover of the Pixies’ song, and it feels more digitally oriented than the original.
The combination of soft sounds and gentle vocals conveys a strong sense of weightless floating.
Apple AirPods Pro (2021)
While many of Apple’s commercials adhere to a clear concept, some are quite abstract.
This is especially true of first-wave ads that introduce brand-new products.
“Introducing AirPods Pro” is one such commercial, memorable for its striking, high-impact visuals.
The track that underpins it, “Lenguas,” perfectly complements the ad’s artistic vibe, blending tribal elements with a forward-looking sound.
If you’re into exotic melodies, this one’s a must-check!
