Beats leak reveals the name of its next headphones plus most of its specs — but there could be one disappointing omission
Apparently, the headphones Beats teased at the 2026 World Cup will be called the Beats 360, implying spatial audio chops.
A leaked listing for upcoming Beats headphones has revealed their likely name, the Beats 360, along with many of their technical specifications. The headphones, set to be released soon, will feature a thin headband with a soft pad and circular cups with protective material. This design is similar to the headphones worn by soccer players Lamine Yamal and Lee Kang-in during the 2026 World Cup.
However, there is no mention of Apple's H2 chip in the listing, which had been a point of interest for many fans. Instead, the new Beats 360 headphones are said to have 1.75 times more noise cancellation than the current Beats Studio Pro, though the specifics of this claim are unclear. Other features include interchangeable cup cushions and headband pads, an IPX4 rating for sweat and water resistance, and all-day battery life.
The price of the headphones is estimated to be around $299 / £330, though this figure is likely a placeholder until the official price is confirmed. The listings suggest that the Beats 360 could be available for purchase sooner rather than later, potentially defying previous speculation about a 2027 release.
