Beats Studio Buds + announced: Transparent design, improved noise canceling, up to 36 hours of playback

Apple's audio brand Beats has recently launched the new Studio Buds +. It's the company's improved true wireless earbuds with active noise canceling.

Beats Studio Buds + Transparent

An improved Studio Buds!

Versus the Studio Buds in 2021, the new Studio Buds + comes with new colorways in Black/Gold and Ivory. There is also a grey-colored "transparent" variant allowing its users to see the internals of the case and buds.

Undeniably, its transparent version has similarities to what Nothing did with its TWS buds.

The device is IPX4-rated for sweat and water resistance and has a comfortable fit that you can wear all day long.

Black version

For sound, the buds use a "custom acoustic platform" to deliver powerful and immersive sound. Beats promise clear bass and ultra-low distortion as well.

Of course, it has spatial audio for Dolby Atmos for a digital surround sound experience.

It also has upgraded "voice-targeting" microphones for "high-quality" call performance.

Ivory edition

The new Studio Buds + also promises a better ANC performance due to its 3x larger microphones that have been "engineered to adapt to the personal fit" of the users to neutralize unwanted external noise. It also retained the Transparency mode to keep its users aware of the surroundings.

Each bud can last up to 9 hours within extra 27 hours on the charging case for a total of 36 hours. The previous Studio Buds can only last up to 24 hours in total. 

US price with direct to PHP conversion (no taxes and duties yet):

In the US, the device retails for USD 169.99 or around PHP 9.4K out of straight conversion. There is no info on when will it be available in Apple partner stores in the Philippines like Digital Walker and Beyond the Box.
