Beats calls the carrying case the smallest, lightest it has ever made: it weighs 22 g, each earbud weighs 5.7 g, and the earbuds can be charged in the case directly from a compatible phone, tablet or laptop over USB-C.

The checks that matter.

Before you buy

Beats explicitly states no active noise cancellation. Four ear-tip sizes provide fit options and passive isolation; Transparency mode support is unspecified.

Manufacturer source Manufacturer source

The case cannot recharge the earbuds on its own. Charging requires the earbuds seated in the case with the case connected to a USB-C power source; no cable is included.

Bluetooth 5.3 (Class 1); USB-C charging through the carrying case

iOS and Android features
Compatible with iOS and Android out of the box: one-touch pairing, automatic pre-pairing across your devices, plus Find My or Find My Device

Battery life
Earbuds: up to 18 hours of playback per charge; no ANC. The case provides no standalone charging or additional playback total. Recharge the seated earbuds with the case connected to USB-C power. Fast Fuel: 5 minutes of charging gives up to 1 hour of playback.

Apple tested preproduction Beats Solo Buds and software in April 2024 with iPhone 15 Pro and prerelease software, 358 iTunes tracks encoded as 256-Kbps AAC and 50% volume. Full-discharge playback ended when the first earbud stopped. Battery life varies with settings, environment and use. Fast Fuel is a separate manufacturer charging claim. Charging requires the earbuds seated in the case with the case connected to a USB-C power source.
