Beats Cables Now Available at Apple Stores

by

The new Beats charging cables added to Apple's online store on Tuesday can also be purchased at Apple's physical stores in many countries starting today.

Beats Cables
The cables are available in a variety of colors and lengths, with USB-C to USB-C, USB-C to USB-A, and USB-C to Lightning options. All of the cables have a Beats logo, along with a woven design that increases durability and helps to prevent tangles. In the U.S., prices range from $18.99 to $34.99 for one to two cables.

Notably, this is Apple's first own USB-C to USB-A cable, which could be popular for CarPlay.

Overall, there is nothing extraordinary about these cables, and many cheaper alternatives that are functionally equivalent are available on Amazon.

Beats has shared another ad for the cables on its YouTube channel.


Apple acquired Beats in 2014, and the popular headphone brand has recently pushed into a few other product categories, including iPhone cases and charging cables. Apple also re-released a Beats Pill portable speaker last year.

Dang it, I was hoping for at least a Beats polishing cloth, so that I could clean them properly.

This is so unnecessary and so overpriced. You can get an Amazon Basics USB-A to USB-C cable on Woot for $2.99. It’s not woven, but you can replace it 5 times before spending the same on one of these, and still have a dollar left.

And wow, I just realized they’re charging $19 for an 8 inch cable. Pathetic.

Edit: I underestimated how many people are willing to buy a $19 charging cable. To each their own. I’m sure it’s a good cable. Just a horrible value.

This seems like an accurate review of Beats products in general ? At least the colors are nice, I guess...

These are stunning! Tim sure wasn't kidding when he said the pipeline has never been stronger. These are clearly the best, most powerful, and most stunningly designed Beats cables that Apple has ever released. And Apple didn't stop there. By making these cables with a knitted outer wrap, the cables are more resistant to wear and tear, extending their lifetime. These truly are pro-level cables! Apple thinks you're gonna love them!

The question now is: how can Apple keep up with this break-neck pace of innovation?

Maybe some people like the look of them, maybe some like the design or colours. If you think they are overpriced, move along.
