Apple released the Beats new wireless headphones Powerbeats 4 tonight, which has been 4 years since the third generation (though last year Apple released a truly wireless Powerbeats Pro separately).
Powerbeats 4 is equipped with the same self-developed H1 main chip as AirPods Pro/2, and supports "Hey Siri" voice control and quick pairing.
Its battery life is up to 15 hours, which is 3 hours longer than the third generation.
At the same time, compared to the previous generation, the positional relationship between the ear hook and the connecting line for the neck hook is reset, which is more ergonomic and more comfortable to wear.
Of course, the logistics buttons are still reserved on the two headsets, which can be used for media control and connecting and receiving calls.
Thanks to H1, if a short message is received on the iPhone, Siri can read it directly through the headset.
In terms of sound quality, the hardware unit is said to be the same as Powerbeats Pro.
There is also an improvement in charging, and 5 minutes of charging can achieve 1 hour of listening. But there is no charged storage box, but you need to "blood back" to the headset directly through Lightning.
The Powerbeats 4 are priced at $150 and will be released on March 18, which is $50 cheaper than the third generation.
Due to the in-ear design, four sizes of replaceable ear caps are standard, and IPX4 is waterproof.
