The newly-released wireless earphones Beats X from Apple could be a "more dynamic" alternative to Airpods. With the production of the iPhone 7, which no longer has the regular headphone jack, many customers have been looking for an affordable pair of headset.

This new set of accessory from the American tech giant does not only boast of affordability but also comes with features comparable to those offered by more expensive models.

With a price tag of $149.95, the Apple Beats X is packed with significant features that will reportedly increase the convenience of using it. 

According to Apple Insider, the battery of its latest wireless earphones can last up to eight hours of usage. 

While there was a "noticeable" decrease in the accessory's battery during phone calls, especially when it is far from its host device, the tech site pointed out that "Apple's system power estimates appear to be accurate."

The silicone tips of Apple's Beats X reportedly make it easier to wear the wireless device, while its magnetic earbud makes its secure it on the neck (by wearing it as a necklace) when it is not in use.

As a whole, Apple Insider noted that the device is "a well-made, decent sounding earphone that works in a variety of environments." In a scale of one to five, with the latter being highest, the tech site gave it a score of four.

Meanwhile, NDTV reported that the new Apple earphone is powered by W1 chipset. This means that it uses the same chipset as the higher model Airpods. This also means that the Beats can be paired with other Apple devices easily.
