Beats has officially launched its latest over-ear flagship headphones, the Beats 360, in India and global markets. Priced at Rs. 42,900 in India and $349.99 in the US, the new headphones offer interchangeable ear and headband cushions, active noise cancellation (ANC), personalized Spatial Audio, and up to 32 hours of battery life.
The Beats 360 are available in Black, Cloud, Pink, and Sky color options. Customers can purchase additional cushion kits separately, allowing them to change the headphones’ color and material. The detachable cushions use memory foam for comfort, and the headphones automatically adjust acoustic tuning based on the installed cushion configuration. The design folds flat and comes with a woven ripstop carrying case.
These are Beats’ first over-ear headphones with an IPX4 rating, providing resistance against sweat and water splashes. The ANC system delivers up to 1.75 times more combined active and passive noise cancellation than the Beats Studio Pro. The headphones also support Transparency mode, Adaptive EQ, and personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking.
Internally, Beats uses custom-designed drivers with dual neodymium magnets and a three-layer diaphragm. Nine microphones handle noise cancellation and voice pickup, with beam-forming technology to improve call clarity.
Battery life is rated at up to 32 hours with ANC and Spatial Audio enabled. A five-minute Fast Fuel charge provides up to one hour of playback. Charging is via USB Type-C. Connectivity includes Bluetooth 5.3, with support for both Apple and Android devices. Apple users get one-touch pairing, Automatic Switching, Audio Sharing, and Find My, while Android users get Fast Pair, Audio Switch, and Find Hub support.
Orders opened through Apple’s website on September 22, with retail and in-store availability beginning September 24.
