We in fact just spotted a new Amazon all-time low on the base model AirPods 4 at $100, but Amazon is also bringing back Black Friday pricing on the latest 2024 Beats Solo Buds at $49.95 shipped. Regularly $80, you’ll now find this 38% price drop live on the Transparent Red, Matte Black, and Storm Gray colors. Now $10 under the previous Amazon deal price, today’s offer is matching the price we featured over Black Friday and in the lead up to Christmas last year.
You can get a complete rundown of the new feature set and user experience for the Beat Solo Buds in our hands-on review right here. The short-form takeaway is this: they are “one of the most intriguing new products from Beats in a long time.”
The Beats Solo have a few things going for them, not the least of which is the ultra-compact charging case and especially so in the sweet Transparent Red treatment. But we were also more than impressed with the battery life here – there might not be a battery in the case for an extra charge on-the-go, but at $50 the onboard 18-hours of operation the buds themselves provide is quite impressive. And this isn’t some marketing trick, our testing confirms they actually provide the 18 hours of use – there’s also the usual 5-minute quick charge using a USB-C cable that nets you an extra hour of listening.
Additional features include dual compatibility for iOS and Android devices with “seamless one-touch pairing,” custom-designed microphones with “advanced noise-learning algorithm for exceptional call quality,” and industry-leading Class 1 Bluetooth for fewer dropouts.
