Beats reveals new Solo 4 headphones and entry-level Solo Buds. Beats has finally released updated on-ear headphones, and a surprise new pair of budget earbuds. Beats Solo 4: New on-ear headphones priced at $199.99. Notable upgrades include custom 40mm transducers and a claimed 50 hours of battery life.

Beats' on-ear headphones get an overdue refresh with a more comfortable design, longer battery life, and wired audio over both USB-C and the 3.5mm jack — but no ANC.

Beats has announced two new sets of headphones, including a new line called the Solo Buds, which are the smallest and most affordable in-ear Beats headphones. You'll have to wait until summer to get your hands on the Solo Buds, which will be available on June 6, but the Solo 4 on-ear headphones go on sale from May 2.

The Solo 4 Doesn't Cost More

One of the biggest differences between the two models is that the newer headphones have a 50-hour battery life, 25% longer than the Solo 3's 40 hours.

As noticed by MacRumors, the company has quietly discontinued the Powerbeats, noise-canceling Solo Pro headphones, and entry-level Beats EP headphones.

The brand's continued success helps bring the energy, emotion and excitement of playback in the recording studio back to the listening experience for music lovers worldwide. Beats was acquired by Apple Inc. in July 2014.

Is it worth buying Beats? ›

To summarize the good, they are a comfy, stylish, wireless headphone (that works really well with Apple devices) with good noise cancelling, decent sound quality, and one of the best battery life ratings even today. I'd say you could do a lot worse for the money when considering all of those points above.

How long do they last on a full charge? Beats Solo 3 claim a battery life of up to 40 hours on a single charge. If you're wondering what is the overall lifespan of the product, these will gradually lose charge over time like any lithium ion battery product like your smartphone, so potentially 5-10 years.

The Beats Solo 4 is not waterproof nor does it carry an ingress protection rating, but that doesn't mean it can't handle ambient moisture.

The Solo Pro was quietly discontinued on November 1, 2021 with the Beats Solo³ Wireless remaining as an alternative, though without the active noise cancellation.
