[@Grim20s]

There are a few things about these headphones that I think go over a lot of the average consumers head. The main gripe being that these headphones are not necessarily meant for leisure music listening these are built for in-depth audio mixing. I believe that is why people feel like there is a lot of features missing from these at the price point because they are not geared towards working out or average consumers. As an audio engineer the lossless audio functionality is the main selling point on these (at least for me personally) and it blows my mind more emphasis wasn’t put on this feature as these are currently the only headphones from apple that can support lossless at-least until we see what this newest AirPods update brings. My main gripe with the OG Studio 3s is that as a person who wears glasses the Studio 3s gave me a massive headache after about 45 minutes to an hour of mixing and the max volume left more to be desired, I’m hoping these issues have either been eliminated all together with these new ear cups or at the very least significantly improved. My pair should arrive by 4AM tomorrow morning i just couldn’t pass up the black Friday deal for $170. If anybody would like me to come back and update this thread with my findings from an audio engineering perspective by all means let me know.

[@bruceleroy1187]

Fuck it, I'm curious to know your review and I'm no engineer at all

[@Grim20s]

@@bruceleroy1187 well, quite frankly, these headphones disappointed me. I’ve been using beats for years and there’s no denying that they sound good on the surface but as far as comfortability and the EQ they missed the mark on these. I made it through about an hour of mixing before that pressure headache started to set in and somehow these are actually a tad bid quieter in volume compared to the Studio 3s which was a huge bummer. The lossless audio did not sound bad but was absolutely not what i expected to get out of a built in DAC in a $350 pair of headphones. There is 3 pre-set EQ settings when listening over USB C you can switch between and oddly enough to me the “Classic” beats EQ or whatever they want to call that was meant for music sounds flat and dull to me, my go to choice has actually been the Entertainment EQ which was meant for like Movies and Media. These things are a trip but if you don’t wear glasses and you can get them on sale i think they are worth it for an average consumer but at full price i couldn’t justify it by any means. The Noise Cancellation you get over wireless was actually fairly impressive but the passive mode was far from premium and i think the Airpods do a better job. I hate to do it but i think these will be returned this week Im just sleeping on it, hoped this helped.

[@jhalilali]

I’m extremely curious yet worried it will get lost in my notifications. I just ordered a pair myself for these specific reasons so i’m glad someone else is too!

[@arnleevizcayno965]

i missed black friday deals and I'm waiting for a huge discount. anyhow, i'm interested on your perspective as an audio engineer.

[@Grim20s]

@@arnleevizcayno965 sadly these headphones are not ideal… they are tight around the head and contrary to my original comment the EQ on these are not good at all and if anything lacks a certain quality from the original studio 3s. For an average consumer these are subjectively good headphones and their noise cancelation (over bluetooth) is good! But for wired mixing and audio listening you don’t get those features. However for me personally as someone who wears glasses and does in depth mixing these headphones are not a great choice and i was really disappointed in them. If your really looking for good mixing headphones the Sennheiser HD 280 PROs still take the cake as far as live audio goes and they produce great mixes IMO but are pricey. When it comes to working on hip hop records i still like the mixes i get out of the OG Beats Studios despite some engineers having objections.

[@brunoneudecker301]

still remember years ago when i was 10/11 first getting into tech and heapdhones. Your channel started it for me, i got my first beats because of your reviews. Still remember all the beats reviews from the mixers, to the executives(your favorites at the time) and the beats pros. I am turning 21 this year. Thank you for the journey

[@UrAvgConsumer]

A true OG. Thanks for coming along for the ride

[@brentmakes]

I bought these after using the Sony XM3’s until the band finally cracked. The first time I wore these on the bus I was shocked at how well they made the world go away. They brought my music to the forefront. I had never used Beats and I was worried about the “signature sound” being too much for me. I really love it. I got them for $100 off, and they feel like a steal.

These are cool but honestly the Beats Solo Pro’s should’ve just never been discontinued. Those were really great headphones at the cost and the automatic on/off based on whether or not they’re folded was amazing. Was hoping that would be included on these. It’s a shame those came and went so quickly.

[@mokaLARE]

They probably were not selling them a lot.

[@fverdugoavila]

You are absolutely right. I think that, for Apple, the Beats Solo Pro were a kind of experiment by implementing so much technology in headband headphones, especially for the functionality of turning them on and off just by folding or unfolding them. His biggest red flags were the starting price, the elimination of the Jack port and the size of his earcups. Personally, I have never been bothered by the size or the earcups of the Solo models, I like them and I feel that they hold much better to my head. Regards 🫂

[@MrBrewman95]

I really love mine. 40 hours of battery life and the fact you can use them three different ways makes it so versatile. Bluetooth, USB C to USB C and USB C to 3.5 millimeter with an adaptor. Get them at 199 when they go on sale. 350 is a bit steep but jump when they are on sale. They are worth it.

[@Amb252]

I'm using my Beat Studio Pro right now, and I love them. I like them more than I like my Studio 3s, especially when I'm listening to music and when I wanna tune out my surroundings and just focus on my music but the transparency mode lets me be aware of my surroundings around me

[@latenightwatchers]

I had the beats from 2017 and upgraded after 7 years finalle to the beats studio pro and i gotta say..... WOW.... the sound is way more clearer and ANC is DOPE ! .... really had a tough time deciding whether to pick sony, apple pro max or studio beats pro and i chose the beats... would buy again!

[@johnnyboy5155]

I had the Studio 3s. Worked great for a year until the internal band right above the ear cuff started cracking like crazy. It seemed to be quite a problem that could never get fixed. I wonder if they fixed that since he was able to bend that like crazy.

[@LucienSabre]

They fixed it - I have a pair of Beats Studio 3 bought in 2019 that still are and work perfectly (battery is still great too). :)

[@michaelm3512]

I doubt it. I believe the cracking is a design flaw with these headphones. Knock it a lil against a wall and you’ll randomly see a crack start to come in afterwards. The earcups deteriorate in a year and you’d have to replace them every year. The only good thing about these headphones is the battery life and bass. Build quality is abysmal

[@LucienSabre]

@@michaelm3512 Then I must be an exception, as I have had my Beats Studio3 for 4 years now (I bought them for and shortly after my MacBook Pro 2019) and the earcups are like new. I haven’t had to replace them once….but I don’t use the Beats every day…:p

[@benjaminharris8354]

@johnnyboy5155 I had a similar thing w my beats studio³ where the headphone quality was good for like a year and then it started deteriorating. For example, ANC was good at first but then got worse over the years. the leather on my ear cups started seriously peeling in like the 2nd year and the build quality is just trash. Dropped mine once and a crack started forming and now I use tape to keep my one speaker from falling off the arm. I don't think I'll be buying another pair

[@LucienSabre]

@@benjaminharris8354 Beats’ build quality is the opposite of trash - my Beats Studio3 and my Beats EP are both in their 4th year, and they work and are like new (fabric/leather parts and battery included). More likely you didn’t care how you used yours….and if they get “tossed” around without much care, of course they’re bound to deteriorate faster.

[@rickstjohn635]

Bought a pair of Beats Studio 3's - used - off Ebay 2 years ago for personal use and for work (have them on now while watching this). The sound is great and with this 5 year old (?) version being discontinued, it might be a legit buy for those that want a great headphone, not ready to migrate to USB-C or just want a decent value purchase. I'll keep my Studio3 for as long as I can; to be honest, I'm cheap and am always looking for a bargain and I'm in no need to drop $350 when the old Beats work great. One more thing: I was never crazy about that hard shell storage case with the Beats Studio 3 headphones (when I say hard, it made a noise when it would fall out of my bag onto the office floor or desk; no place to stash the cables; took up too much space in my bag when not in use), but this new case gives the impression somebody FINALLY put some thought into the perfect solution (unlike that horrible solution from Apple)!
