Are you an on-ear or over-ear type of headphone person?

@dmac5472 Ай бұрын

Over the ear, Had the Beats Solo 2 wired headphones some yrs back and I gotta say my ears feel much butter w an over the ear fit. I know folks will clown me but I use Raycon everday headphones, they are over the ear style. I actually bought them in a pinch before vacation in 2022 when my Solo 2s started showing more signs of wear and tear on the cushions.

@AM562 Ай бұрын

0:23 the Beats Solo2 wireless did not have Apple W1 chip inside those headphones came out before Apple even announced the W1 chip the first pair of beats to use the W1 chip the Solo3 and the second beats product to use the W1 chip what’s the studio3 headphones. I know that because I am a beat by Dr. Dre collector. So I guess you kinda got a fact wrong. Because the Apple W1 chip what is released alongside the iPhone 7 with the first GEN AirPods and the beats Solo3 headphones all released in the same year 2016

@alejandroandrade3473 Ай бұрын

On-ears shouldn’t be a thing. On-ears aren’t comfortable or save too much space in your backpack compared to over-ears. It is all compromise and no benefits between over-ears and iems/true wireless.

@johnpreston2794 13 күн бұрын

So in a nutshell the discontinued Solo Pro from 2019 are still the best out of the Solo range since they have Active Noise Cancellation options.

@qstorm76 Ай бұрын

The studio pros go on sale regularly and can be had at the same price. Hold on to your old headphones and buy these on Black Friday.

It appears they have dropped down to 179... everywhere.. not a sale price... correct me if I am wrong...

I have wh 1000 xm5s. I don't think i will be upgrading any time soon but i love beats. They are phenomenal too.

@riasure Ай бұрын

I did get the beat studio pro recently, but I returned them simply because I do not think they were worth the money and also I like to be able to alter EQ settings which it didn't really allow. I returned them in the end for the Sony XM5. Although Beats studio pro cannot be beaten on style in my opinion and battery life was great also but I just thought price point was a tad high.

Interesting new model of Beats Solo 4 I wonder if they are good enough to use with Apple Box TV? I was considering the Sennheiser Acentum to use in Apple Box TV the price is practically the same.

@mikebes5 Ай бұрын

I picked up the Beats Studio Pro during a sale. Very happy with those. I even prefer them over the Airpods Max, which may be a tiny bit of a hot take.

Does the microphone work when they're connected via 3.5mm cable? How about when they're connected via USB-C? Thanks.

You sold me on the Beats Studio Pro last year, and I still use them every day. I don't need the Solo because I have dipped my toes into the wired market. Great video! I know these are going to sell extremely well! Oh and P.S. I absolutely love my Beats Studio Pro!

The reason there was such a time gap between the 3 and 4 is because you skipped the solo pro. That came after 3 4 years ago and for my $ the best well rounded headphones beats ever released. So good I bought it twice. (Might get another)

@dannyo1471 27 күн бұрын

Hmmm hoping for a refreshed Beats Solo Pro... But looks like the cans from 5 years back is still superior with the build and active noise cancellation.

@editorodriguez6554 28 күн бұрын

I have both the studio pro and the solo 4 and in the same colors you have them to, the Studio I use them at home and at work since they have ANC . The Solo’s they are my pick up and go headphones

@chambersaj1983 Ай бұрын

These say they support audio sharing and the Beats Studio Pro didn’t support that. I think they said at the time it was because of the Beats silicon, since these also have beats silicon and support the audio sharing has beats said whether they will be bringing that to the Studio Pros?

@NawlinstoVegas Ай бұрын

The Beats Studio pros are 179.00 on amazon. 20 bucks less than the 4?

@TonyRome402 Ай бұрын

I have Solo 3, and they are still pretty good; but I don't think Apple, Sony, or Bose can match the quality, price, and performance of my new Skullcandy Crusher Evo. The music literally gets into my bones.

I’ve been an AirPods Max user for a couple years and love them, but when I found the Beats Studio Pro on sale for less than $200, I jumped on it, liked them way more than I expected… and then I sold them. Then a funny thing happened… I missed them! So, of course, I bought them again (again under $200). I love the case. I love that they don’t look pretentious. They have great sound and good ANC. I still use my APM around the house, but my BSP travel with me!

I just got the Beats Studio pro in white on sale at Best Buy for 200 so if you can get the studios I would go that route better. They are more comfortable, have noise canceling and transparency mode so it’s a no brainer to me, but I’m really loving that blue color on the solos I wish they had that color on the studios.

@TheMannywoods Ай бұрын

That’s one of the main reasons why I want the solo. I love that blue color

What I don’t like about the Beats proprietary chip is that you can’t connect and listen to more than one Bluetooth accessory like AirPods can.

@jsblanco2360 Күн бұрын

Ok, so basically there main purpose is for those who want them for show and want to appear to be cool and use them as wearables, and the fact they produce sound is secondary, like a feature...

@V_besch14 Ай бұрын

I hate to be that guy, but some corrections: Solo 2 wireless came out in 2014 Solo 3 wireless (W1 Chip) came out in 2016. The solo 2's did not have a W1 chip.

These are definitely trying to rival the Sony headphones lineup. That’s likely why Apple is really pushing cross compatibility and easy pairing with Android also. This is super competitive. I like it.
