Beats Solo 3 wired?

Are they supplied with and work with a cable?

If so, do they still work when the battery is dead?

(eg; I understand Studios don't)

iPhone 7 Plus

Hi CailynAncaster,


I can understand why you'd like to use the Solo3 Wireless headphones while connected, and it would appear that was taken into account when designing them! Per the Quick Start Guide for the Solo 3 Wireless:

WIRED PLAYBACK
Plug in RemoteTalk cable for wired mode to conserve battery or when battery is depleted.

You can find the Solo3 Wireless Quick Start Guide and more here: Headphones | Beats by Dr. Dre Support



All my best!
