Apple Announces New 'Beats Solo Buds' Wireless Earbuds for $79.99 [Video]

Apple has announced new 'Beats Solo Buds,' its most affordable wireless earbuds yet, at a retail price of just $79.99.

Beats Solo Buds custom-built acoustic architecture packs big Beats sound in the smallest case we've ever made. Ergonomically designed acoustic nozzles and laser-cut vents improve audio performance while relieving pressure for added comfort. And with four ear tip sizes (XS, S, M & L) to securely fit a diverse range of ears, Solo Buds optimize comfort and passive noise isolation for the ultimate listening experience. Each earbud features dual-layer transducers designed to minimize micro-distortions across the frequency curve, ensuring high-fidelity sound with uncompromising clarity and detail.

Features

● Delivering exceptional call quality, each earbud is equipped with a custom-designed microphone powered by an advanced noise-learning algorithm. Enjoy extended range with fewer dropouts thanks to industry-leading Class 1 Bluetooth.


● Native compatibility ensures seamless one-touch pairing, automatic account setup, plus Find My or Find My Device — for everyone.

● Customizable on-ear functions allow you to control your music, take calls and activate your voice assistant by pressing the 'b' button. You can also configure the press-and-hold action in iOS settings or the Beats app to control volume.

● Solo Buds feature Beats' longest earbud battery life ever with up to 18 hours of playback. When it's time to recharge, seat your earbuds in the case while connected to a USB-C cable. For extra power on the go, they can charge directly from your phone, tablet or laptop. And with Fast Fuel, a 5-minute charge gives up to 1 hour of playback.

Solo Buds will be available in four sleek colors, Matte Black, Storm Gray, Arctic Purple and Transparent Red, for $79.99 (US) from apple.com in the US, beginning in June.
