If you're hesitating to buy true wireless earbuds from headphone deals because you're worried that you'll lose them, then you should consider going for the Beats Flex. The wireless earbuds, which are connected to each other with a cable, are currently available from Walmart for a very affordable $49, following a $21 discount on their original price of $70. We're not sure how long stocks will last because this is a huge steal, so if you're interested, you should take advantage of the offer as soon as possible, while it's still online.

Why you should buy the Beats Flex wireless earbuds
