Priced at $79.99, Beats Solo Buds deliver 18 hours of battery life and come in the smallest case ever designed for Beats earbuds. The case does not contain its own battery, and an external power source must be connected to the case via USB-C to recharge the buds.

Beats Solo Buds feature a custom-built acoustic architecture and an ergonomic design with four ear tip size options for a precise fit. There is no active noise cancelation on the Beats Solo Buds, but they do offer passive noise isolation to improve audio quality. A custom microphone design paired with an advanced noise-learning algorithm help deliver improved call quality.

Waiting it out until 4th Gen AirPods.... how can they redesign/upgrade the stem part to make me look cooler when I am in line at the grocery store and TJ Maxx lmaooo?
Beats are to look cool and sporty, AirPods are to make sure everyone knows you have an iPhone. That's what Apple's marketing department thinks anyway, probably.

Help me get this straight.
[LIST=1]
* 18 hours of battery life play time (but no idea what is the talk time).
* A case that does not contain battery.
* No noise cancellation.
* No idea if it supports multipoint connection or does it link to our Apple ID for using with multiple devices.

All these for a lovely price of $80?
Well, the 18 hour of play time is impressive based on the size of the device.

I think these are a great option for people who don't want to pay for all the bells and whistles for pods, and they'll likely be discounted even further during the holidays. They're not for me, but they'd be cool for doing yard work, which is the only time my APP2 tend to fall out.
