By now, we all should be familiar with the brand Beats. This is a very popular brand for people who love high-quality audio, and the company just released its next generation of products. It’s just announced the new Beats Solo Buds and new Beats Solo 4.
Beats Solo Buds
Starting off with the Solo Buds, Beats brought its big sound to a very small form factor. The Beats Solo Buds are the company’s first pair of TWS earbuds in the Solo series. As such, they cost less than the company’s more expensive headphones. In fact, they cost less than most other TWS earbuds on the market.
The Beats Solo Buds come in at a very reasonable $79.99. These are less than some of the most affordable earbuds from companies such as Jabra, Samsung, and Google. While they are very affordable, they still offer some great specs.
They deliver a reasonable 18 hours of battery life with the included charging case. Your hours may vary, but it’s important to note that in order to get this metric, Beats tested these earbuds at 50% volume. In any case, 18 hours is good enough to get you through a few days of casual listening.
When it comes to the actual audio, Beats was able to fit some pretty powerful drivers into these earbuds. They’re small, but you can bet that they’ll still deliver a very big and powerful sound. If you’re a Beats fan, then you should be familiar with the sound profile that these earbuds will provide.
The Beats Solo Buds are compatible with both Android and Apple iOS devices, and they support seamless one-tap pairing on both platforms. As for the colors, the Beats Solo Buds come in four beautiful colors. These are Matte Black, Storm Gray, Arctic Purple, and Transparent Red. The Beats Solo Buds will be available to purchase in June.
Beats Solo 4
This is the next generation of the company’s flagship headphones. The Beats Solo 4 bring the company’s best hardware and design aesthetic.
Coming in at just 217g, you’ll basically feel like you’re wearing nothing on your ears. Not only that, but they have super comfortable ear cups that form to the shape of your head when you’re wearing them. These are called UltraPlush in-ear cushions. So, these are the most comfortable Beats headphones you can wear today.
These headphones come with a set of powerful 40mm drivers that deliver a punchy and very fine-tuned sound to your ears that’s miles above last-generation’s headphones. You’ll get a great High-Fidelity sound that will make everything you listen to sound incredible.
A good addition to these headphones is spatial audio. This, coupled with the dynamic head tracking, makes for an incredibly immersive experience. This is great if you want to feel like you’re in the middle of a concert or if you’re in the middle of the action in a movie.
Just like the Solo Buds, the Beats Solo 4 are compatible with seamless one-tap pairing on both Android and iOS devices. They charge via USB-C, support USB-C audio, and support 3.5mm analog audio for battery-free playback.
You’re looking at about 50 hours of playback on a single charge, which will get you through multiple days of casual usage. However, if you run out of battery power, a quick 10-minute charge will give you up to 5 hours of playback time.
The Beats Solo 4 come in Matte Black, Slate Blue, and Cloud Pink. You can order these today for $199.99, and they will begin shipping on May 2nd.
