Beats By Dre and its storied music execs, and founders,  held a press conference at the Beats Store in NYC’s SoHo neighborhood to present a few new products including a new pair of Beats Executive headphones and the Beats Pill, a portable wireless speaker. 

The Beats Pill, which Iovine said was “just what the doctor” ordered aims to be a revolutionary way to listen to audio on the go. Retailing for $199, the Beats Pill feature Bluetooth compatibility a four speaker Beats system and a rechargeable lithium ion battery that provides seven (7) hours of playback.

The new Beats Executive headphones feature a soft leather headband which includes hand stitching, brushed aluminum and boasts Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) performance and offers full phone functionality.
