Beats Studio Pro – Premium Wireless Over-Ear Headphones- Up to 40-Hour Battery Life, Active Noise Cancelling, USB-C Lossless Audio, Apple & Android Compatible – Amazon Exclusive Sand Gray

Best Consumer Audio Headset. Hands Down
I have owned multiple pairs of these over the last decade and I think that speaks to their value. Way more pros than cons but I’ll list them all in my eyes.Pros: these are super comfortable and fit even over my big ear. I love that type of fit and refuse to wear a pair of headphones that cannot cover my ears. The sound is superb and can get as loud as you need it. They are light enough to wear for a few hours and not have any kind of head/ear fatigue. They connect so easily to any of my apple devices and switching back and forth is quick as well. I love the noise cancelling settings as I can close myself off when I’m laying in bed while easily being able to switch to hearing outside noise if I’m at the gym or in public and need to know what’s going on. Battery life is also awesome and they charge fast if you’re in a pinch.Cons: there really aren’t many but the main one for me has simply been durability. They fold in on eachother to make transport easier. But that’s also the problem. That hinge is beyond easy to break if you were to drop them or sit on them or have them in a bag where a lot of weight would be placed on them. The two easiest solutions are either 1. To never put them in a bag and leave them around your neck whenever possible on the move. Or 2. Invest in a HARD case to store them in if you plan to take them to gym/work/travel.

High quality and pretty!
They fit well and are adjustable. They work well. The sound is clear with solid bass and they stay comfortable. The Bluetooth connection is quick. Battery life has been holding up long and they charge quickly.

Review And Comparison To The Sennheiser Momentum 4
Highs: Beats > Sennheiser.High frequencies are good in both headphones, but Sennheiser has them more emphasized. Sometimes it feels like if you crank them slightly higher you’re gona hear sibilants. It’s on the edge and this is not the most pleasant edge to me. However, the sound is accurate and somewhat distinctive in the upper-frequency range for the Sennheiser. As for the Beats, highs are as detailed as on the Sennheiser (if not more) but not overemphasized.Mids: Beats > Sennheiser.Sennheisers have a so-called v-shaped sound profile so it feels like Beats have way more mids. It might be even too much at first, but you get used to it. Beats are more detailed and fast. Sennheiser feels muddy in comparison (but still very precise and detailed compared to Sony and Bose). I think it’s partially because of overemphasized bass that brings distortion into the mid range. You start hearing things that were not originally intended to be there by artists. Because of this, Sennheiser sounds more “musical”, it fills the voids between the instruments and produces an overall “dense” sound. And the Beats have more reference sound. For many instrumental tracks (rock, metal) Beats might sound boring and hollow. I can’t blame the headphones because such music is usually mastered to sound good on consumer electronics. And you can’t put good “dense” sound into an average stereo system. It will sound too muddy and.. just bad. So they leave the voids between the instruments and try to separate them. But on a reference headphone, this sounds… well… too reference :)Electronic music is a completely different story, this is where Beats shine! Electronic sounds are way more precise. And with Beats, you get this precision (especially in the complicated EDM tracks; I mostly listened to psytrance, psychill, idm, etc. But an average techno/trance sounds good as well). Sennheisers sound fine too, but only until you compare them with Beats.Bass: Sennheiser > Beats.The Beats are precise, again, and so is the bass. If the bass was intended in the music that you listen to – you will hear it. And you will hear exactly as much as it was planned by an artist. Rap songs sound great because of that, as well as some EDM tracks with massive sub-bass. As for the Sennheisers, well, they are v-shaped still so they add a subtle amount of bass to the overall mix, and in most cases, this sounds fine and even fun. It also comes without surprise that in bass-heavy rap songs, it starts to sound too overemphasized. In terms of precision, Sennheisers are not as precise but still hold their ground well against sony/bose/etc.Soundstage: Sennheiser > Beats.Soundstage feels subtly more open on the Sennheisers. Probably this is because they are not as precise and produce more “parasite” harmonics that make instruments sound further from your head. I like this effect but this makes me wonder if it’s possible to achieve a good soundstage for closed headphones without compromising the sound speed and precision.ANC/Transparency: Beats > Sennheiser.Beats are slightly better in noise cancellation and noticeably better in transparency mode. Not as good as AirPods Max, but kinda close. Sennheiser is not bad though, it’s just not as good. Wind can be a problem for both headphones, but I don’t care. Beats are better at blocking fan noise but may overemphasize it in the transparency mode.Mic: Sennheiser >> Beats.Sennheiser microphones are superior both in terms of volume and quality. Beats is really mediocre, on the edge of what I would call “usable” for the zoom meetings. On top of that Beats mic sounds really quiet in Windows 11 rendering itself useless. I hope new firmware/drivers will fix that.Ergonomics: Sennheiser > Beats.I like Sennheiser more. Beats have smaller earcups with stiffer ear cushions. Also, the clamping force on my average-sized head is obnoxiously strong. Not to the point when I feel a headache after wearing them for a few hours but still too much in my opinion. However, I like the fact that Beats are more compact. It makes a difference when I listen to them in bed, for example. They don’t rub as much against the pillow and don’t produce a lot of noise like Sennheisers.Sennheiser ear cups are rotating 180 degrees when on the Beats, they barely move. This is important if you want to move one headphone back to open your ear when you need to listen to somebody or something from the outside world quickly. Or if you’re a DJ and need to hear monitors with one of your ears :). Sennheiser earcups pivot and stay perfectly adjacent to your head, unlike the Beats.Connectivity: Beats > Sennheiser.Both headphones are ok when you’re near the source, but the Beats stay connected longer as I walk away from it. The usable distance is like ~30% longer. They also perform better for a source behind a wire mesh or a security door. I know that Sennheiser is capable of working with 2 devices simultaneously and this works pretty well. Not sure about the Beats but I don’t really care…Controls: Beats >> Sennheiser.Beats are very basic. They don’t even have a head detection. And this feels soo good after the glitchy Sennheisers! You can read more details in other Sennheiser reviews, but they are really bad in that aspect. I bit the bullet and used them as my daily drivers, and oh boy… settings were getting changed randomly, I had tons of fantom head detection events, and when I wanted to put them on or off I almost always accidentally touched the right earcup sensor and triggered something (usually play/pause).

You will never have a better quality sound than these beats but there’s pros and cons in every product so i’ll list themPROSPretty efficient, good sound quality, a pretty good noise cancellation and pretty good to fold them as you can transport them anywhere with the case. Really great for relaxing and travelling from afar, pretty great for a headphones you’ll want to keep for a few years, pretty rough as i smash them on the ground while walking because i’m a clumsy ass but it didn’t scratch a little bitCONSThey can be irritable to wear for a while, also the noise cancellation have a weird knocking noise on the left ear that can be annoying if you do focused tasks ( DO NOT WORRY, IT ONLY HAPPENED WHEN YOU NEAR AN INTERNET ROUTER, YOU CAN ALWAYS CANCEL IT BY TURNING DOWN THE NOISE CANCELLATION), Also, a lot of the time, i had to cancel my bluethooth near my phone so that my tablet will connect to it as it doesn’t have an M1 ship, which can be able to be focused on one apple device or android device, also gym is not recommended as it falls after a deadliftOverall, i recommend them for travelling, relaxing or studying.

The headphones sound amazing—clear audio with solid bass and almost Bose-level noise cancelling. I really like the oval ear shape and the soft, high-quality feel of the materials. They’re super comfortable, and the rubber top band helps them stay in place without slipping.The pairing was quick and easy with the app, and I’ve had no connection issues. Definitely a great alternative to other high-end brands.The only downside is the carrying case—it’s well made but a bit snug, so taking the headphones out can be tricky. Still, an overall great buy.

I recently because both were on sale and the difference of the price was only $50. The Studio Pros had extra features that I was interested like the Transparency mode, this is an opposite of the noise cancellation, which allows you to hear all the outside noises better than normal mode and forces all the external noises into the headphones. The USB C connection is the biggest difference since it’s much more convenient and charges faster.About the sound quality, it’s definitely better than the Studio3’s. The Studio3s has way more bass but not in a good way. The audio sounds all muddy as if you were listening from underwater. The vocals end up having a weird sound effect to them. The Studio Pros on the other hand is a lot less bass but you can hear the instrumentals and vocals more clearly. The volume for the Studio Pros is noticeably lower though.Overall, these headphones feel less comfortable than Studio3’s since the earpads aren’t as thick so your ears are being pressed right into the earpads. All in all, the sound quality for me is so much better than the Studio3 that it’s definitely worth it for me.
