Although Apple hasnt let loose any official word on the Powerbeats 4 wireless in-ears, rumours and leaks of their existence have been popping up over the last few weeks.
Now, theyve even been seen on shelves.As reported by 9to5Mac, a reader found the new Powerbeats 4 available for $149 at his local Walmart in Rochester, New York.
Its unclear if this is the final retail price as well have to wait for official word on that front, but the Powerbeats 3 launched for $199 (169.95 / AU$259).As can be seen, the new iteration of Apples wireless earbuds from the Beats by Dre brand are available in the anticipated black, red, and white color options.
They also feature the improved ear hook design that we expected would carry across from the true wireless Powerbeats Pro.Similarly, the packaging claims that the wireless in-ears will boast up to 15 hours battery life, a step up from the 12 hours offered by the Powerbeats 3 and something we anticipated, given that the new units likely include Apples H1 chip.The addition of this chip also introduces Hey Siri functionality (a detail that was discovered in the iOS 13.3 code), allowing users to access Apple's digital assistant directly via a voice command instead of needing to wake it with a button press.While this is as clear a confirmation of the products existence as we can get without it being Apples official word, its worth noting that the tech giant hasnt made any official announcement at this point, so were yet to learn all details on the latest wireless in-ears from Beats.
