The Beatles in Mono is a boxed set gathering the band's remastered monaural recordings. It came out on compact disc on 9 September 2009, on Apple Records, the same day as the remastered stereo catalogue and the video game The Beatles: Rock Band. EMI senior studio engineers Allan Rouse and Guy Massey led the remastering project for both the mono and stereo versions.

For anyone who loves these records, it offers a different way to hear them. A vinyl edition followed on 9 September 2014 on 180-gram heavyweight pressings, each disc mastered directly from analogue tape rather than from the digital remasters used for the CDs. The box was reissued on 18 July 2025, so the mono mixes remain easy to track down.
