Japanese fashion house Wacko Maria reveals new Beats Flex collaboration

Apple's Beats Flex entry-level wireless earbuds will very soon be available in a limited leopard-print design made for Wacko Maria.

Beats by Dre is continuing its partnering with worldwide celebrities and fashion brands, this time with Japan's Wacko Maria house.

Intended to match Wacko Maria's Hawaiian-style shirts and clothing, the limited edition Wacko Maria x Beats Flex comes with leopard print earbuds, and a two-tone cable.

Beats Flex is a wireless earbud, but a cable acts as a neckband between the two earbuds, and includes integrated controls. The earbuds have USB-C, 12-hour battery life, and Apple's W1 chip for fast pairing, and audio sharing.

The new Wacko Maria x Beats Flex cost $70, which is the same price as the regular Beats Flex models. It's not clear whether the edition will only be available for a limited time, but it will be available from December 2, 2022, online or via selected stores in Japan.
