This headphone company, Beats, was bought by Apple five years ago for more than $ 3.000 billion. The mutual work has allowed to continue offering and improving the benefits of the devices of the big apple. But even if the purchase was made in full, Beats remains a division within Apple, it maintained a certain independence.
The latest rumors suggest that Beats might be thinking of releasing its own AirPods in April. The idea is good although it would increase the competition with the AirPods whose second generation was launched this week. They are expected to be a kind of redesigned PowerBeats 3 without any cable in between, we tell you after the jump.
Will Beats launch their own AirPods?
The Beats wireless headset would be similar to the AirPods and would bear the name of PowerBeats, following in the wake of its product line. The report suggests that it could be priced close to U.S. dollar 200 and the current price of the PowerBeats 3 has been analyzed and it has been seen that the price has fallen, which would point to the imminent arrival of a new product, so it is one more argument to support the thesis of the launch of wireless headphones .
Being within Apple it is very likely that these headphones use the technology that AirPods carry, that is to say, the new H1 chip that allows to improve the performance and improve the battery of the AirPods. The point of launching a product under the Beats name is simply to maintain the renown of a brand trying to be independent under the lap of the Big Apple. However, to what extent would you sell having AirPods, for less money and from a better known company such as Apple?
It is very likely, according to the report, that we will see this product in the month of April. In other words, there is only a couple of weeks left to find out what the fate of Beats is in the wireless headphone market. Would you buy completely wireless Powerbeats or would you opt for Apple AirPods?
