The Beats Flex wireless earphones have dropped to $39.99 today on Amazon, down from an original price of $49.99. This is one of the first notable discounts on Apple's new Beats Flex earphones, and you can get them at this price in black and yellow (also available in blue and gray at $40.00).

As with the previous BeatsX earphones, the new Beats Flex are wireless Bluetooth earphones with a cord between the two earpieces that drapes around the neck and provides access to some physical controls. Beats Flex feature a lightweight and comfortable Flex-Form cable made of durable Nitinol to connect the earpieces, and the earpieces magnetically click together to keep them secure around your neck when not in use.



A few deals remain on the Powerbeats Pro as well, with the spring yellow Powerbeats Pro on sale for $159.99, down from $249.95. If you're on the hunt for more discounts, be sure to visit our Apple Deals roundup where we recap the best Apple-related bargains of the past week.

Appreciate this post! I just went and got me a pair of yellow ones.
Used a $20 amazon gift card that I got for Christmas, so it only set me back $20!

These sound so bad. They're not worth $5.
That why they price it way higher and then discount them, for thrift shoppers who buy it for the bargain price not sound quality. I never buy earbuds that are less then $200 now! I no sucker anymore. I stay away from Beats too.
I like the total wireless earbuds like Bose Pros and Sony ones. Pricey but great sound and has bass!

I got a set of black ones, for something to replace my dying Skullcandy jib+. They are not audiophile quality by any means, but for podcast listening, or youtube watching on the move, they are absolutly fine.

I just checked and (as of 11:27AM 02/01/2021) all 4 colors are still available on Amazon... I don't see any sold out.

Thx. Turns out you need US IP or Shipping to US Address to see those deals.

I have had a pair since launch. The inline mic is possibly the worst mic I've ever used. Utter garbage. I listen to mostly podcasts so audio-wise these work pretty well. They are a big step back from the old $150 version, but at $50 (or $40 in this case) they are a no brainer for a basic pair of wireless W1 headphones.

Battery life is tremendous though, lasts all day easily.
