BeatsX Earphones | Unboxing

Hey, what's up guys, Stephen Cult of Mac here, and in this video, I'm

unboxing the just-released Beats X headphones. So, let's get started. And here they are, the Beats X earphones with their eight-hour bachelor life

On the side of the box, we've got the beats by Dr. Dre logo, and on the other side

there's a quote from the man himself reading, people aren't hearing all the music

Very nice. On the back, there's a list of all of the features, there's blue

Bluetooth, up to eight hours battery, fast fuel charging, so five minutes of charge equals two hours of play

It'll be interesting to test that out. It also comes with removable wingtips for a more secure fit, a flex form cable, and you can control the music and manage calls

These cost me £130 on the UK, and they retail for $150 in the States

So let's open these up. There's a little tab here at the bottom. Just pull that off

Then I can just lift them straight up. Underneath the actual earphones, there's extra earbuds and wingtips

Let's move the box to one side. Starting with the earbuds themselves let just pull them straight out Not the smoothest dumb unboxing The air buds are a little bit smaller than I expected they nice and compact And they got their magnetic connection to keep them together when you wearing them around your neck

Here's the lightning port when they need charging. And the play pause buttons as well as the volume controls

To the other card for a minute, if we flip it over, there's the little black lightning cable

which plugged straight into the earbuds themselves like so. And also a little black carrying case made of what feels like silicone. It's a bit dusty

So it's just this kind of clamshell style case with a little cutout

No matter which of the four colours of earbuds you pick up, the case is always going to be black

which is a little bit of a shame, as it would have been nice if they all matched. But the embossed logo on the front is a nice touch

Flipping the card back over, and we'll have a quick look at those inserts. There's three sets of standard buds, so they should fit anyone's ears

and these add-on wing tips in two different sizes, which are handy to use during workouts

Let slide them back in for now Also inside I guessing it the standard paperwork A nice little three month free subscription to Apple Music Even if you already a subscriber which is nice

A Quick Start guide. A beat sticker and the usual warranty info

Back to the earphones though, and they look really nice with that glossy beats logo on the back

The little buds themselves just pull straight off if you need to change them for any of them other inserts

the inserts. As I mentioned, they come in four different colours which are blue, white, grey and the black eye have here

The controls are simple enough. The centre button plays and pauses music or answers and ends phone calls

with a single press. A double press will skip songs and a long press will activate Siri. Then there's

volume up and down buttons I decide. So I guess the next thing I should do is to actually try them out

So when you turn them on, you'll find a little LED flashing and your iPhone will automatically connect just as it does with the AirPods

So all of those click connect. Already connected. Let's go to my playlist and try them out

So there's no actual indicator which is left or right. The easiest way is to see the angle of the earbuds

So immediately it snug fit It can stop quite a lot of sound around me so I shouting and I apologise So my first initial thoughts is that they very loud

I'm surprised just how loud they are. I'd definitely say they're louder than the new AirPods that have come out

and there's awesome a lot more base just as initial thoughts obviously I'll go into more depth when I come to do the review

but I don't even know if you can tell through this I've only ever really tried

beats products in stores where I can electronic stores over here and I've never really found them

I've never really rated the quality of them compared to someone like Bose or Senheiser

I've always preferred those brands that aren't quite as cool but first initial thoughts

I'm really impressed with the sound of them. I only listened to them for a couple of minutes so far

but I'm really impressed overall. Well, it's it for this video, but if you enjoyed it
