I have been using the Beats Studio Pro Headphones a lot lately in different ways to truly see how they are. These are very good and comfortable headphones. They do a wonderful job at outside noise cancellation. I use them to listen to music, listen to books as well as movies. I am very impressed at the sound quality along with how it sits on my head and they do not hurt my ears. I have chronic migraines and seizures so, I have to be very careful to not have anything trigger them. I love that they come in multiple colors. They charge fast and the battery life is long! Overall I totally recommend them and I love them!!... Show more

30% less loud than the Beats Studio 3 !!
These Beats Studio Pro are very clear if you want books on audio or easy listening music. Not for the Gym person who wants to crank the music!What I did not like that made me really upset was: These new Pro series are suppose to be 80% better overall and they're not! You'll see they are at least 30% quieter and will find yourself seeking higher volume? Truly disappointing! Why would new technology be worse than Beats studio 3's? Myself and 4 others tested between the studio 3 and Pro and 100% you will like the studio 3's better! Don't waste your $!! Grab a brand new pair of Beats Studio 3 and then thank me for it!!! Beats, COME ON!!! Know your audience! Most of us like LOUD, CLEAR music with deep base! I was hoping for improvement and you guys blew it...... Show more

A Great Alternative to Airpods Max
For context I own the Airpods Pro 2, Airpods 3, and previously owned the Airpods Max. I Picked these up because I wanted a pair of headphones that integrate well within the Apple ecosystem, but also wanted something much lighter than the Airpods Max. These sound surprisingly excellent from what I've played so far. The bass and mids are both pronounced and clear. There is some sparkle in the highs and I would describe them as bright which I prefer for clarity. These don't have the same dip that the Airpods Max do in the treble frequency response. They sound surprisingly excellent for Beats headphones. The sound stage is airy and there is good instrument separation. They are comfortable to wear for long periods.There are things that the Airpods max do much better ... MoreFor context I own the Airpods Pro 2, Airpods 3, and previously owned the Airpods Max.

Almost Perfect
These headphones are pretty great and they do what they say they will. My biggest gripe and isn’t exactly a performance flaw but what I’d call an oversight is not including ear-detection on the headphones. They’re so similar to AirPods Max and obviously are less expensive, but other headphones in this price range have the feature that it seems silly these don’t.They otherwise sound fantastic and are extremely light considering all the tech packed into them. If you like to travel or just tune out the world and stay incognito, I’d recommend these over the AirPods Max. If you’re not in the iOS ecosystem, you’d likely be better off with the Sony 1000x M4.... Show more

Beats !!!!!
These are very good headphones. They are not as loud as the 3’s but are so much clearer. Not to comfortable at first but once you wear them for longer period of time they tend to get more comfortable as the ear cushions tend to adopt to your ears and get broken into. Definitely worth the buy. Everyone stop comparing these to the AirPods max. They are $200 difference. These are very close to those but a lesser price alternative. Beats are beats airpods are AirPods. But for the price of these they are worth every penny. Get um & enjoy um!!... Show more

Great and not so great
For reference, I own the Airpods Pro 2, Airpods 3rd gen, Airpods Max, and Sennheiser HD 550S. I love every one of these headphones and was hoping to get a lightweight and stylish alternative to my Airpods Max that could be my daily driver. For those who own 3rd generation Airpods or newer, don't get these. For those who don't, wait for a sale.The battery life is easily the best feature of the beats studio pro sporting a higher battery life than all of my other portable headphones to the point that I never had to charge them for the whole week that I had these. The noise cancelling is pretty effective falling short only to the Airpods Max and Sony's XM5s which is saying quite a bit. The transparency is better than every other headphone I've tried aside from any of ... MoreFor reference, I own the Airpods Pro 2, Airpods 3rd gen, Airpods Max, and Sennheiser HD 550S.

For those who have experienced the Airpods Max's adaptive EQ and wide drivers, these will fall completely flat in comparison. The mids (vocals and most instruments) and high ends (guitars and hi hats) sound very clean and at times better than the Sony XM5s, however, the lack of bass and definition in comparison to the Airpods Max and Pro was disappointing from a brand that has a history for their emphasis on bass.Overall, these are good headphones and to those who are just getting into high end headphones, these will not disappoint and as an added bonus, they will look like a genuine fashion piece at times. However, for those looking to go with an alternative to replace their Airpods, these aren't it.... Show more

Not worth the inflated price
Not worth the money. Clear. But flat. My Bose 700 sound way more dynamic and full than these do. My noise cancellation in the 700 also better. Same plastic housing and glued on lame earpads. I would’ve used these at the gym and this style is popular at the gym but the earpads are a pain to replace. Only time these sound decent is in Dolby atmos. Then not bad. Still take my Bose over these and they came out 4 years ago and are better than these. Shame apple looked for a quick buck hope it bites apple in the butt. Anyway returned got my money back. Still love my Bose 700. Great gym headphones IPX 4 rating. Earpads easily replaced and a durable shell. And headband. Don’t bother with this trash.... Show more

Only two key areas but it didn't affect me
Beats Studio Pro key areas are that there's no more hard casing which requires caution when you're carrying a ton of stuff on an airplane carry-over, meaning that you can't bottom this product anymore but also these flagship headphones isn't available in "Beats Red" (Black and a Red "B" Logo), so you're stuck with the non traditional colors in a common world. Like another Apple-affiliated product, these aren't cans for those who sweat a lot in the gyms, so don't use these for cycling or for the treadmill. These were made for home listening in private, optimally for PC or Mac Use. Although you can use these wirelessly, the included wires are strongly recommended as the drivers and/or Dolby Atmos features were made specifically for hard wired listening, though in ...

Although the $350 USD Price Tag can be steep, it's worth considering though the ANC feature might not compare to certain cans. It's more competitive given that it's been almost 5 years since the last Beats Studio Full-Size Cans were revised.... Show more

Ow.
These Beats sound pretty good. Relatively balanced across the board. Honestly they’re clinical in the way all Apple products sound. There just isn’t much to say about the sound. It’s pleasant for 98% of people.However, soundstage feels strangely small.USB C input was a very handy feature but cant connect to an iphone for lossless audio. Its also nice to maintain the 3.5mm input. Buttons are real buttons, no capacitive touch controls that I can tell. I like the restrained look of most of the recent Beats products but I know some folks wish Beats would go for the more bold styling of their older product lines.The integration with iOS is, expectedly, great. ANC is good and transparency mode was better than most others except the spiritual siblings in the AirPods ... MoreThese Beats sound pretty good. Relatively balanced across the board.

These simply cannot stay more than 20 minutes on my head. Im curious as to why, I’ve had both Apple and Pre-Apple Beats products that were pretty comfy.I’m sure these are for someone, but not for me.... Show more

They Get Most Things Right
Alright, so I've been using the Beats Studio Pro headphones for a while now, and I've got to say, they've definitely got some impressive things going on. The sound quality is top-notch – crisp highs and deep bass that make my music really come alive. I've been rediscovering old classics and hearing details I never noticed before.The noise cancellation is a game-changer for me. With these headphones on, I can finally find some peace and quiet in my own little world, whether I'm on a noisy commute or just trying to unwind at home. It's like having my own personal escape button.The build quality is solid too. They feel durable and well-made, which is important since I tend to be a bit rough with my gadgets. Plus, the comfort factor is on point. I've worn them for ...

Plus, the comfort factor is on point. I've worn them for hours during long flights without any discomfort or that annoying ear-squishing feeling.But here's the thing – they're not exactly subtle. I mean, they're a bit flashy with that big "B" logo and all. Sometimes I just want to blend in, you know? Also, the price tag is no joke. I get that quality comes at a cost, but it's still a bit of a wallet-pincher.All in all, if you're after excellent sound, killer noise cancellation, and a comfy fit, these headphones are definitely worth considering. They've become my go-to for my music and podcasts. Just keep in mind the bold design and the investment you're making.... Show more
