Apple has released the first firmware update, version 4A262, for its newly launched Beats 360 headphones. The update became available on September 22, allowing users who have already ordered the device to install the latest software immediately upon receipt.

While official documentation regarding the specific changes in version 4A262 has not been published by Apple, industry reports suggest the update likely focuses on general bug fixes and potential audio quality improvements for the headset.

The Beats 360 model marks a significant milestone for the brand as it is the first over-ear headphone from Beats to feature an IPX4 rating for sweat and water resistance. This design allows the device to withstand liquid splashes during use.

The headphones are currently available for pre-order through multiple retail channels, including Apple's official website and JD.com. The retail price for the new device is set at ¥2999.
