Apple’s W1-Powered Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones Are $80 Off For Black Friday

There is one type of costly headphones that don’t tend to find themselves part of sales because they sell just fine at their normal, often eye-watering asking price.Those headphones are the Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones. They normally retail for at least $300 but right now, they’re both available at a very decent discount indeed.

Beats is now owned by Apple, and while we’re not sure that is related to the fact that they rarely appear with deep discounts these days, we’re not sure.

That appears to not be the case today though, with the Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones currently available with a massive 20% off their normal asking price. That’s quite a lot too, because they normally retail for just shy of $300.

Right now they can be had for just $239.95 in a whole host of colors including the iconic (PRODUCT)RED option that looks so striking. This sale also includes the special The Beats Decade Collection in Defiant Black-Red, and that might just be our favorite color of them all.

Colors aside, all of the Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones are the same, which means you can expect up to 40 hours of battery life from a single charge, with playback apparently “fine-tuned acoustics maximize clarity, breadth, and balance.” They are also powered by Apple’s W1 chip for easy pairing just like AirPods.

There’s also an in-built microphone for taking calls as well as controlling music using Siri, and the whole thing is powered by USB when charging is required. There is also a good, old fashioned 3.5mm headphone cable included for those who still have devices that have such connections.

So, not anyone with Apple’s latest iPad Pros or iPhones, then.

Buy: Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones from Amazon: $239.95 | Original price: $300
