Nothing Beats Apple W1
The introduction of Apple W1 technology in Beats Solo3 Wireless gives you lots of awesome benefits including seamless setup and switching for your Apple devices, plus super-long battery life, and 5-minute Fast Fuel charging.

All that battery life means hours and hours of sound...award winning sound. Beats promises premium playback with fine-tuned acoustics for maximum clarity, breadth, and balance.
