(AllHipHop News) Jimmy Iovine and Dr. Dre may have built a $3.2 billion empire on a product that probably costs less to make than a haircut.

The New York Times reports that Dr. Dre’s Beats by Dre headphones are inexpensive to make, with headphone designers estimating “the cost of making a fancy headset is as low as $14.” A pair of Beats by Dre can cost upwards of $450, however the quality of the headphones has always been a concern. TIME Magazine ranked Beats by Dre as the second to worst headphone brand out of 18 in terms of sound performance last month.

While Beats by Dre may be made for cheap and have questionable sound quality, the brand is a marketing juggernaut. Beats by Dre owns an 27% of a headphone industry that reported $1.8 billion in sales last year.

The way my phone fuckin slows down over time pisses me off, just did a cache wipe abd factory reset. It almost makes me want an iPhone. almost

Im sure they have their annoyances too and even though itd probably stay more stable and remain responsive over time since its basically uncustomizable and everything is proprietary, its still a step backwards in my eyes. Sure i could hack it or jailbreak or whatever people do but if i wanted to do all that id just install a custom faster more responsive and stable Rom on this phone

does anybody know if a regular headphone extension plug cord thing will work with a microphone line too or does it have to be a different type of cord? ive found answers saying theyre the same and it doesnt matter and answers saying i need a "mono" extension or something otherwise the mic wont work. bah stupid google is so shitty nowadays you basically just search to confirm an answer or opinion vs being able to get the right answer
