Apple Officially Unveils Its New Powerbeats Wireless Earphones

Apple has officially unveiled its new fourth generation Powerbeats wireless earphones. The new earphones feature the company's H1 chip for hands-free 'Hey Siri', 15 hours of battery life, and a new lower price.

Powerbeats matches the sleek design and advanced engineering of Powerbeats Pro, with the same powerful sound and reinforced sweat and water resistance.
