Customer reviews
An alternative to AirPod Pros? Yes, but with a slight lower quality difference. Worth it? Yes
I compared these beats with AirPod pros. Both are Apple products. The beats have a smaller range of volume, the lowest volume is pretty loud for the “lowest volume”. Each level for volume going up is minimal compared to the AirPods. (At around 1/3 of the volume they match volume. AirPods get a lot quieter and ALOT louder, I’d say 10% louder) The beats are loud enough for me I leave it at 3/4 of volume. Noise cancellation is really good, some noise filters through in loud environments but it’s enough when you’re at the gym and busy places. I experienced noise filtering through when I was in a car with music blasting. So I’d rate the noise cancellation pretty high. Pass through, pass through is good. I’d recommend not having the pass through when there’s lots of noise cause it’s good and personally it can get loud. When there’s a sudden loud noise the earbuds make the same loud noise and it could hurt your ears if you have sensitive hearing. Cons, when in loud environments if you are on a call the earbuds filter out the noise, and when you speak it filters your voice a bit too which makes it hard for the other person on the other end to hear you. Also the bit about the loud noise with the pass through and sensitive ears is a con for me. Battery life is really good, lasts me my work day and a bit more, I’m sure like all batteries that would go down after use but hasn’t happened to me yet I’ve had it for 2 months now. Bluetooth, the Bluetooth is pretty strong. You could probably still have a connection a few rooms away in a house before the connection begins to fail. Unlike AirPods when you remove the bud from an ear whatever is playing will not pause unless YOU pause it. This means it’s constantly connected, when you are within the Bluetooth radius of course. I’ve lost a bud twice but this actually helped me find it, so that’s a plus. And with these beats you cannot connect another pair to your phone like you can with AirPods. So it’s only on pair of beats at a time. I really like the earbuds and I think they are well worth the price, to me they are a barely lesser version of AirPod pros. I’m considering getting the studio pro’s over the AirPod max after this experience. Update 4 months later- The battery life is still very strong, I have had some issues with them disconnecting and reconnecting to my phone and I believe it’s because when I got my Apple Watch, it must be Confusing the connection between my phone and the watch. Yes, it can be annoying but to me, it’s still worth it. All really need to do is reconnect with my phone. I don’t think AirPods Will have this problem. But I’m not sure. There was one day where the noise cancellation on my right earbud stopped working, but it’s because I didn’t have enough battery so I had to charge it after that I had no issues.

Read this Review (I'll tell you why I settled on these after researching for months!)
You're probably like me, dragging your feet for months, researching and researching for hours trying to compare brand names (Bose, or JBL? Sennheiser, or Apple?). I finally settled on these, and here's why: 1) I didn't want airpods. You probably also don't want airpods (if you're even reading this review). Not because of the quality, but because "everyone has airpods" and they're "airpod people" (sorry to all the airpod people, including my sister). I wanted to be different (hopefully no shame there?). 2) My top priority was phone calls with my earbuds (make sure, even if you don't end up with these earbuds, that you determine your priorities, -clearly-). These earbuds have some of the best "in ear" calling I've seen (next to airpods). 3) I wanted something low profile (also why I didn't want airpods with the "stem"). These are very sleek, and don't look flashy in the ear. They're also not very cumbersome, and fit very snuggly. Very light, but durable - great design, even better build quality. 4) Not a huge selling factor for me personally, but if you want noise cancellation, this is your stop. I just used these this morning on the train coming into Boston, sitting next to the door leading out of the coach, and was astonished with how adaptive it was to specifically tuning out the rattling of the train. These earbuds will adapt to the environments around them! 5) The battery life is fantastic. Keep in mind, if you're in a loud area with the noise cancelling on, and it's working harder, you're going to blow through your battery faster - even that considered, I was still really impressed with the battery life! 6) This is clearly designed to work seamlessly with Apple products. Pairing was a breeze, and the connectivity is strong. Beats and Apple had a beautiful handshake with this product, and it shows. 7) Lastly, the sound quality. This is unmatched with anything I've used prior. Has very clear audio, and a great range of tone. The bass is powerful, while balancing defined treble tones. A couple things to consider: -These don't have wireless charging (unlike my other gadgets). I need to plug them into USB-C to charge. Might not be a big deal for you, but this is a drawback on my radar. -Get a protective case! The existing charging case is well built, and sturdy - but if you're like me, and you put your phone in a protective case, do the same for your earbuds. The case I got was drop proof, and didn't add much to the size (it doesn't take up much space in my pocket). It was $10 for peace of mind. Get an airtag too while you're at it! Overall, would recommend!

Surreal Experience. Feels Like These Are Worthless!
These earbuds are the best earbuds I have ever tried! As someone who has had so many different brands of earbuds, I can assure you that these Beats Studio Buds + exceed what you thought was possible for earbuds. The Active Noise Cancellation is surreal! I have never had a pair of earbuds or even headphones capable of the level of Noise Cancellation these earbuds are able to achieve. They fit snugly into the ear canal with the 4 different size tips included. They are the perfect size and fit perfectly into the ears without being bulky like some other earbuds. It is so easy to connect these to an iPhone as an iPhone will automatically detect them when placed around them. Despite all of this, my favorite part about these Beats is the sound quality! The sound quality of the Beats Studio Buds + is vivid, vibrant, and crisp! Having these earbuds fills like you are in an empty room alone with the artist with no around for miles. The transparency of the earbuds adds a finishing touch to the stylistic vibe of the earbuds and with the small size yet amazing battery life, it makes these earbuds the perfect thing to take along with you.

Hands down the best for phone calls!
Man have I missed my beats!! My pair in 2020 unfortunately ran away after 2yrs, I was looking for something comparable in 1 major category for me was phone calls! I have not found any other brand that can compare, I never had an issue with hearing and same for other person, they never knew if I was wearing them or not there so clear! They fit perfect I almost forget I have them in sometimes, there so comfortable and the battery life is awesome especially if you can only use 1 bud at work, I like alternate them throughout the day. After after about 15-20 pairs of everything from 6bucks to 95 dollars nothing compares! And if I have to pay extra for quality (obviously) I'll just grab these! Love my megaboom 2 too! And the clear case and buds!! Is cool ASF! So obviously gotta get a clear case. I am just a tad disappointed there not wireless charging... My original studio buds we're! I believe my gfs are wireless, I'll check and then be even more pissed off lol. Bottom line, stop dicking around and buy them already!! Unless your one of those people that looses everything or breaks everything then dont, or.. do.. idgad lol
