These Beats products are obsolete, or will be obsolete soon

Tech gets old. It is a fact of life. It's too late to replace an obsolete product, so make plans to do so.

Knowing when a device will become obsolete is the best way to start your planning process. Thankfully, when it comes to Beats products, that's easy to figure out. Here is a complete rundown of which Beats products are obsolete according to Apple.

Which Beats devices are obsolete?

Apple has a list of obsolete products on its website. Customer support for a product will be offered by Apple service providers for at least five years. After an Apple product is no longer relevant, the company won't help you with any repairs or other services. You should think about upgrading by that time.

The list of obsolete Beats devices is short.

• Beatbox portable is the first generation.

• Beatbox portable is the third generation.

• Beatbox portable 2

• The Beats Pill 1.0 is out.

• The Beats Pill XL 1 is out.

If you own any of those and need repairs, you should seek someone other than Apple. Your device is lost in the wilderness of tech obsolescence. It doesn't mean you're in the clear just because your device isn't on that list.

Which Beats devices will be obsolete soon?

A device is vintage if Apple stopped selling it more than five years ago, but less than seven years ago. You may still be able to get repairs from Apple, but that is dependent on parts availability.

This only applies to the United States. In the rest of the world, vintage Beats devices are obsolete. The vintage Beats devices are in the U.S.

• Beatbox portable is the second generation.

• The Executive of Beats.

• The beats mixr

• The second edition of Beats Pill.

• The first generation of Powerbeats.

• Powerbeats 2.

• Powerbeats Wireless 2.

• It's the best HD beat.

• The headphones are called the Beats Solo2 Wireless.

• The second generation of Beats Studio.

• The second generation of the tour.

• The tour is called the Beats Tour 2.5.

If you own any of those products, you are safe for a while. Upgrading to a newer model is probably the best way to chart a new course.

The best earbuds Apple has ever made are the Beats Fit Pro.
