  "account": "Leaked images of Apple's upcoming Beats headphones, dubbed the Beats 360, have been spotted across several UK and US retailers, revealing pricing, design, and features. The Beats 360 differ significantly from the current Studio Pro and Solo 4 models, featuring a detachable padded section on the headband and more open mesh on the earcups. Six color options—Sky, Black, Navy, Cloud, Pink, and Volt—have been identified, with some colors reminiscent of the MacBook Neo's vibrant shades. Priced at £331.99 in the UK and $299 in the US, the Beats 360 boast advanced features such as noise cancellation up to 1.75 times stronger than the Studio Pro, personalized spatial audio with head tracking, AI-driven beam-forming mic system for calls, all-day battery life with ANC, and IPX4 water and sweat resistance. The listings do not mention an Apple chip, but this may change with further information. While Apple scrapped plans for a mid-range smartphone due to component cost increases, its sub-brand Nothing has managed to price its Buds Neo wireless earbuds at a competitive level, comparable to Apple's wired EarPods.",
