What to know

  • Walmart has undercut Apple and Amazon by $20 on Beats 360 preorders ($329 vs. $349.99), unusual for Apple hardware at launch.
  • The Beats 360 debut sweat and water resistance (IPX4) for the first time in over-ear Beats, positioning them as a gym-to-desk hybrid.
  • Apple's official store maintains full retail price; Amazon's response to the Walmart discount remains pending.

“The Beats 360 represent a significant shift for Beats. They fall somewhere between the $299.99 Beats Studio Pro and the $549 AirPods Max, delivering an IPX4 sweat and water-resistance rating for over-ear cans for the first time.”
