Hey there, music lover! If you’ve been waiting for the perfect time to grab a new pair of earbuds, your wait is over. The new Beats Solo Buds are officially available to order, and they come with some impressive features at an unbeatable price of $79.99. Let’s break down why these might just be your next favorite audio accessory.
The Lowdown on Beats Solo Buds
The Beats Solo Buds offer 18 hours of battery life right in the earbuds themselves. That’s right – no need to worry about frequent charging sessions. Plus, they come in the smallest case Beats has ever produced, making them incredibly portable. The case is so compact because it doesn’t have an internal battery of its own, serving solely as a storage and charging dock for the buds. With a USB-C port on the back, you can easily charge the buds when they’re running low.
What About the Fit and Sound?
Even without Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), the in-ear fit of the Solo Buds does a good job of blocking out external noise, much better than standard AirPods. You’ll get four ear tip sizes (XS to L) to ensure a comfortable fit, even during extended listening sessions. The audio quality is quite good for the price, though it might not rival higher-end models. But hey, for $79.99, it’s pretty sweet.
Colors and Customization
The Solo Buds come in four stylish colors: Matte Black, Storm Gray, Arctic Purple (exclusive to Apple and Target), and Transparent Red. Each bud features the iconic “b” logo button, allowing you to control playback, skip tracks, and answer calls with ease. You can even customize the button functions in the Settings app to control volume if you prefer.
Apple and Android Friendly
While the Solo Buds lack the Apple W or H chip, they still support a range of native Apple features like one-touch pairing with iCloud syncing, automatic audio handoff to your Apple Watch, Find My support, and audio sharing. Android users aren’t left out either, with one-touch pairing, Find My Device support, and audio switching with multi-point pairing.
Lightweight and Portable
Weighing under 35 grams with the buds inside, the Solo Buds case is lighter and more pocketable than ever. It’s slightly wider than an AirPods Pro case but significantly shorter, making it easy to carry around. The flat bottom allows it to stand upright for added convenience.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Beats Solo Buds are shaping up to be a fantastic budget earphone option. With 18 hours of battery life, a super portable case, and great sound quality for the price, they’re hard to beat. Order yours now and be one of the first to experience these nifty earbuds when they launch on June 20.
