Apple BeatsX Release Date, Specs, Price News: Wireless Earphones Finally Available on Feb. 10
Apple's BeatsX wireless headphones will finally be available to purchase this Friday, Feb. 10, after having been delayed for five months.
During Apple's press event in September 2016, the BeatsX earphones were touted to be the perfect companion for the iPhone 7, which had been introduced without the traditional 3.5 mm headphone jack. However, like the Apple-branded AirPods, the BeatsX earphones also failed to arrive last fall.
Similar to the AirPods, the BeatsX wireless earphones are equipped with the Apple W1 chip and Class 1 Bluetooth technology. This will allow Apple devices running iOS 10 to pair with the accessory in just one step. Users will just have to hold the earphones near an iPhone, iPad or iPod.
