During its recent iPhone launch event, Apple finally unveiled the much-anticipated 5G enabled iPhones and made it clear that it won’t include EarPods and power brick inside the box.
To make up for the unavailable EarPods, the company’s Beats brand did a separate reveal of the $50 Beats Flex Earbuds.
The earbuds are the cheapest we’ve ever seen from Beats. In fact, the brand says these are the “most affordable premium wireless earphones to date.”
They succeed in the previous neckband-style Beats X, which were sold just under $100. The price has been significantly cut, but the value increased.
These $50 Beats Flex Earbuds promise up to 12 hours of battery life, have a USB Type C port, upgraded internals for better sound, and also sound reception from the mic.
The company claims the Beats Flex includes “an advanced digital processor fine-tunes the audio for accurate bass, precise mids, and low distortion across the frequency curve.”
Beats Flex earbuds have magnetic properties, so the two earbuds attach to each other when not in use. Music is automatically paused music when they do so, and they will resume playback soon as you put them on.
Beats says a 10-minute charge can get you an hour and a half of continuous listening time.
Beats Flex will be selling in four paint jobs; black, yellow, blue, or gray. It’s no surprise that the cheapest beats branded earbuds launched the same day when Apple announced 2020 flagship iPhones.
With the environmental conscious moves revealed, Apple hopes these cheap Beats-branded headphones will satisfy the regular iPhone user that doesn’t have over $100 lying around to get the AirPods Pro.
