Lamine Yamal Teases Upcoming Beats Over-Ear Headphones

Published by skeptic

Ahead of the upcoming World Cup, football superstar Lamine Yamal has arrived at training camp for the Spanish national team sporting what seems to be the unreleased over-ear headphones that appeared in a U.S. Federal Communications Commission database last week. As suspected, the new headphones are a Beats product rather than an Apple product. In a post on his Instagram account, Yamal shared several photos and a video clip showing him arriving to training camp with the new headphones in a pink color. We don’t know any other details on the upcoming headphones, and it’s unclear whether they are a next-generation version of the Beats Studio Pro or if they will carry a new name. They feature a distinctly different design than the Beats Studio Pro, with flatter exteriors on the ear cups and a completely different headband design that appears to include tubular telescoping arms rather than the wider and flatter arms of the Beats Studio Pro. A release date for the new Beats headphones is currently unknown, but it shouldn’t be too far …

New Apple or Beats Over-Ear Headphones Appear in FCC Database

New Apple or Beats Over-Ear Headphones Appear in FCC Database

The U.S. Federal Communications Commission has just published documents related to an apparently unreleased Apple product with model number A3577, with the product described as “Bluetooth over-ear headphones.” These headphones do not appear to be the AirPods Max 2, which carry a model number of A3454, and there is little other information to go on, so it is unclear what these headphones are. Most of the documents that would reveal details on this A3577 product are being temporarily withheld from publication under a confidentiality request, which is standard for Apple’s product filings with the FCC. One figure showing the location of the FCC ID labeling on the product appears to show a generic-looking headphone ear cup, with no identifying design details. It is possible these are an upcoming Beats product, such as an updated version of the brand’s over-ear Beats Studio Pro headphones, but this is purely speculation. The Beats Studio Pro were released nearly three years ago in July 2023, so they could be due for a revision. We’ll share additional information as we …

These Sonos Over-Ear Headphones Are $100 Off

If your house is already lined with Sonos products, you may want a pair of over-ear headphones that know how to play nice with your other speakers. As it turns out, Sonos actually makes a pair of over-ear headphones, the Ace, and they’re currently just $299 on Amazon. That’s a great deal, and one that almost ties the all-time low price for these cans. Not only do the Sonos Ace integrate with your existing Sonos setup via Bluetooth, they’re also great headphones in their own right. They have a crisp, flat audio profile, something Sonos is known for, and our reviewer Parker Hall specifically called out their ability to handle any song “with a good bass line.” They have great detail, with a dynamic sound that handles a variety of genres well. They’re also one of the more comfortable headsets you can buy, largely thanks to their impressive lightness. At just 11 ounces, it’s easy to feel like you’re wearing nothing at all, and they have good clamping force on the side that helps take …
