Beats today announced the Beats 360, new full-sized wireless headphones targeting gym users with an IPX4 water-resistance rating — a first for Beats. The headphones feature interchangeable ear cushions and headbands, shipping with Performance knit mesh cushions (available in Black, Cloud, Pink, Sky, Navy, Volt) and optional Ultra Plus leather cushions (Black, Cloud). Replacement kits cost $50 (introductory $10) and allow color mixing.

The Beats 360 use custom dual-magnet dynamic drivers with dual neodymium ring magnets, delivering 12dB higher output than Beats Studio drivers. A proprietary Beats chip (not Apple H1/H2) powers Spatial Audio with head tracking, ANC, Adaptive EQ, and transparency mode. Nine MEMS microphones enable ANC claimed to block 1.75x more noise than Beats Studio Pro. Battery life is rated at 32 hours with or without ANC.

Apple ecosystem features include one-touch pairing, hands-free Siri, audio sharing, iCloud pairing, automatic switching, and Find My. Android support offers Fast Pair, Find Hub, Google account pairing, and Audio Switch via the Beats app. The headphones lack wired audio. Priced at $350, they are available on apple.com and Apple Stores.
