In addition to its Back to University promotion launched in Australia, New Zealand, and Brazil today, Apple has also unveiled a pair of special edition Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones as part of its Chinese New Year gift guide.

beats solo3 headphones new year china
Available in Silver Wing Grey, the New Year Special Edition Beats headphones, which are currently only available in China, continue a new Apple trend of decorating Beats in unique celebratory decals.

In October last year, Apple unveiled limited edition Mickey Mouse Beats Solo3 models to celebrate the 90th anniversary of the famous Disney cartoon character.

Previous to that, Apple released a Decade Edition model of the Solo3 as a salute to the longevity of the Beats brand, which the company acquired in 2014.

As well as the new Beats, Apple's annual Chinese gift guide is also promoting the latest iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad Pro models under the banner of family reunion over the holiday period.

wow, a pair of Beats cans that don't look terible
Meh, these still look pretty terrible to me. Printed designs on plastic always look cheap and tacky to me.

It looks classy and smooth not too busy.

However Apple’s brand has been tainted heavily this past week in China. Apple should not be selling anything that doesn’t have a standard USB-C port.

As silly as it is ... I’d really limited run the Mickey Mouse v could be worth it’s weight.
I HATE how my Beats use micro USB. Its the only thing I have thats not USB-C or lightning. Unfortunately I’m not willing to give up instant pairing and the W1 chip to switch to another headphone maker
