The Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray is the quiet, grown-up colour of Beats’ on-ear range: a mid grey with a matte, soft-touch look that does not shine under office lights and works with almost any outfit. It sits between Matte Black and the brighter options, and it suits anyone who wears headphones in lectures, open offices and airports. Under the finish it is the same Solo 4: custom 40 mm drivers, up to 50 hours of battery by Apple’s test, 10 minutes of Fast Fuel for up to 5 hours, USB-C wired listening with lossless audio, a 3.5 mm input that works without battery, and Personalized Spatial Audio with head tracking, all in a foldable frame weighing 217 g. Matte Gray is a special colour sold through selected retailers and is not one of the colours on Apple’s own store.

Why choose Matte Gray
The Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray is for people who want good headphones without drawing attention to them. Grey reads as neutral with suits, abayas, kanduras, uniforms and casual wear alike, so the same pair moves from the office to the gym bag to a weekend flight without clashing. The matte surface hides fingerprints far better than a glossy finish, and light dust is less visible than on black. The Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray is also a sensible choice for a shared family pair or as a gift when you do not know the person’s taste. Clean the cups with a dry cloth and the cushions with a slightly damp one.
A full working week on one charge
Battery is where the Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray stands out. Apple rates it at up to 50 hours on a single charge, tested at 50% volume with AAC tracks, which for many office workers means charging once a week. If you do run out before a call, 10 minutes of Fast Fuel brings back up to 5 hours of playback. The headphones charge through USB-C, and the USB-C to USB-C cable comes in the box, so any modern laptop or phone charger brick will do the job; the brick itself is sold separately.
Lossless over USB-C, analogue over 3.5 mm
For focused listening at a desk, connect the Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray to a laptop or phone with the included USB-C cable. The built-in DAC then plays lossless audio from compatible services, and the same cable charges the headphones. For older devices, in-flight entertainment or a game controller, use the included 3.5 mm cable, which works even with a completely empty battery. Wireless listening uses Class 1 Bluetooth 5.3 for extended range, so you can walk away from a laptop to the next room without dropouts in most homes and offices.
Calls in an open office
Multiple digital beamforming microphones with a voice-learning noise-suppression algorithm focus on your voice and reduce background chatter on calls, which suits the open-plan offices and co-working spaces where a grey pair blends in. The custom 40 mm drivers in the Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray give the balanced tuning Beats describes for music and podcasts. Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking works with compatible content on supported devices. Remember that isolation is passive only: the cushions block some noise, but there is no Active Noise Cancelling.
Simple controls and both platforms
The Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray uses physical controls: a b button for playback and calls, a volume rocker and a power/pairing button, all easy to find without looking. iPhone users get one-touch pairing, Find My and Audio Sharing; Android users get one-touch pairing and Find My Device. The frame folds compactly on brushed steel hinges and goes into the included soft carrying case, which is handy in a laptop bag.
Who This Is Not For
The Beats Solo 4 Matte Gray does not suit anyone who needs Active Noise Cancelling for flights or loud commutes; isolation is passive only. On-ear cushions press on the ears and can feel tight on long sessions for some heads. Beats does not publish a sweat or water rating, so it is not a workout headphone. If you want a colour that stands out, grey is deliberately low-key. The power adapter is not included.
