Well why would they? They paid quite a stack of money for that brand.
Also I kind of feel that it still has a rather significant fan base.
Got a tip for us?

I don’t much care about bluetooth speakers. I think my two old Apple speakers, paired in Stereo, are quite good at Spatial Audio too. They work on Wi-Fi. And as for small ear buds, I simply cannot use the apple one. Apparently my ear holes aren’t the same, and I cannot use Apple’s brand, because they fall out when I move in the slightest. But Beats Fits 2 has an ingenious way of putting littile hooks that work perfectly. Comfortable, and they very rarely fall out. I’ve watched whole late night movies with them on.
I miss the one time a celebrity was spotted with an unreleased iPhone
Taiwan celeb Jimmy Lin spotted with unreleased iPhone 7 Plus
With less than a month away before the launch of the new iPhones, Taiwanese celebrity Jimmy Lin has been photographed using the iPhone 7 Plus. This isn't the first time the star has been seen using leaked iPhones, as Lin was seen using the iPhone 5 in 2012, and the iPhone 6 and 6 plus in 2014...www.asiaone.com
-From the article
Based on his previous history id be willing to bet it wasn't a accident on his part or Apple's. IMO the best 'leak' will forever be the bar found iPhone 4.
"Big bucks paid?" They just shipped a celebrity a early product. Basically cost nothing. Maybe $50 and look its actually attracting attention from websites who follow Apple! So literally thousands have now noticed. Not sure it was "done well" but your response is equally ridiculous.

I think the design was still polarizing at the time. But people really started to love it when Tim took over and people started comparing iPhones to Steve Jobs era design.
Maybe you are thinking of the old style Beats that standard very very bass-y. Well, news for you. They have changed.
My Powerbeats Pro are far better than many earbuds out there and the only ones that fit in my goopy ears. Beats Studio Pro are getting rave reviews esp with True Lossless Audio. I'm not aware of any Bose Headphones that have Lossless Audio.
Why is Apple still making beats products? Why not just expand the AirPods line? Seems incredibly redundant. I want some black colour options
I just want new Solo headphones with usb c to release and then get heavily discounted on Amazon so I can pick up a pair…
I mean... it's product placement, right? It's a proven marketing technique that's as old as the hills, and which Apple have used effectively for many years. If it didn't work for them, they wouldn't keep doing the same thing with their products.
If you are broke, you have to buy your own stuff. If you are rich as hell, you get stuff for free.
Sounds about right.
Sounds about right.
Half of the people here like Apple. The other half enjoy hating Apple. Beats apply to those people because gives them the ability to have something Apple without having to admit it.
So you’ve not used them then. Got it. How are Powerbeats Pro low quality junk? 😂
Umm…..this makes absolutely no sense. It literally says Apple Inc on the box. They’ve owned the company since 2014. Everyone knows they’re owned by Apple.
You do realize even companies can only spend their money only once. So there are meetings when (typically yearly) budgets are assigned to departments. And big shifts between these department budgets in function of the needs and challenges the company is facing, is crucial. It’s actually one of the most critical jobs of the CEO and board.
I have had multiple Beats headphones and even the Original Pill speaker. They all lack the quality of good speakers headphones for the same price. Or even for half the price.
They may have gotten better, but I am just beyond caring.
I still own the Mickey Mouse Beats Solo3 headphones, but I don't use them. For the price (300 euro) I have bought a set of Beyerdynamic DT 700 PRO X plus a USB-C to mini-XLR cable to connect to my pc and mac. And I use the other cables (3.5mm, 6.3mm) with my other devices.
Sound quality is maybe 8-10x better than the Beats. Same goes for Build quality and Comfort.

But enough to say otherwise? Good to know
