21 JULY 2022 - News of a surprising new set of Beats earbuds. MacRumors says the Apple subsidiary:

…is launching a new special-edition version of its Beats Studio Buds earphones in partnership with Twitch esports streamer and FaZe Clan co-owner Nick "NICKMERCS" Kolcheff.

I say “surprising” because I’m always surprised when anyone takes esports seriously. Then I remember, I’m old.

This not the first tie-up between FaZe Clan and the headphone maker. The piece says Beats previously partnered with the organization “on special-edition Powerbeats Pro and Studio3 Wireless.” If you’re into the new set (or know someone who would be) they go on sale tomorrow - Friday 22 July - exclusively through Best Buy. They’ll run buyers $149.99.
