FAQs
Do the Beats Solo Buds have active noise cancellation?
No, the Beats Solo Buds feature passive noise cancellation, which relies on the earbud's seal within the ear canal to block out ambient sound. They do not have electronic active noise cancellation.
How long does the battery last?
Battery life details are dependent on usage and volume. The earbuds themselves contain a built-in battery, and they are designed to be charged using a charging case, which is sold separately and provides additional charges.
Are the Beats Solo Buds waterproof?
The product information does not specify a water or sweat resistance rating (IP rating). While they are suitable for general use, they are not designed for submersion in water and should be protected from excessive moisture.
What is included with the Beats Solo Buds?
The set includes the earbuds and 4 sizes of silicone ear tips (XS, S, M, L). The charging case is sold separately.
How do I pair the Beats Solo Buds with my phone?
For iOS and Android devices, simply open the charging case near your phone. Follow the on-screen prompts for one-touch pairing. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
Can I use only one earbud at a time?
Yes, you can use either the left or right earbud independently for calls or listening to audio.
What is the weight of the earbuds?
Each individual earbud weighs approximately 5.7 grams. The charging case (sold separately) weighs 22 grams.
Troubleshooting
Earbuds won't pair
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Place both earbuds in the charging case, close the lid, wait 10 seconds, and reopen. Try the pairing process again. Reset the earbuds by holding the button on the charging case for 15 seconds until the light flashes.
No sound from one or both earbuds
Check if the earbuds are properly seated in the charging case and are charged. Ensure they are selected as the audio output on your device. Try cleaning the speaker grills and ear tips. Reset the earbuds if the issue persists.
Poor Bluetooth connection or dropouts
Ensure your device is within range of the earbuds (Class 1 Bluetooth® offers extended range, but obstructions can still affect signal). Close unnecessary Bluetooth connections on your device. Update your device's software. Try forgetting the earbuds in your device's Bluetooth settings and re-pairing them.
Low volume
Check the volume controls on your connected device. Ensure the ear tips are creating a proper seal in your ears; try a different size if necessary. Clean any debris from the earbud nozzles.
