Beats as a company have come a long way. Since Apple has owned the company, their sound has changed as well. I've reviewed a few pairs of Beats headphones since Apple has taken over and they're certainly not the same as the Monster days. This holds true f...

Love the Mickey Mouse design, Clean and subtle design (aside from Mickey), Apple has refined the Beats sound, Comfy for over ear headphones, Nice felt carrying case, W1 Chip on board, Battery life and Bluetooth are solid...

While Apple has refined the sound, Beats are still leaning to the bass side, Like the Beats Studio3's, the clamping power is significant, No USB-C charging, No pocket inside carrying case for cable storage...

Mickey Mouse lovers will love these. If you're just looking for a nice pair of headphones, then these will serve you well, especially if you're into a more bass heavy sound. At the current sale price I think they're perfectly priced, at the normal price...

The Beats Solo3 offers decent all-around performance, but in many areas they fall short of other similarly priced headphones. If the Beats Solo3 fits your price range, we would suggest looking into the Bose SoundLink Wireless II and checking if the Sony M...

Lightweight, good sound...

Expensive, especially considering their relative performance...

The Beats Solo3 are fairly good headphones that still fail to live up to their list price. If you're considering spending $300 on wireless headphones, there are much better options available...

The Beats Solo 3 headphones' amazing battery life make them better for iPhone 7 users than any other on-ear headset. They're expensive and a bit heavy on the bass, but the Beats Solo 3's 40-hour battery life is worth the price. While the Beats Solo 3 head...

The Beats Solo3 are super stylish, but lack of noise cancellation ultimately dooms them in my quest for perfect wireless headphones."Ooo, shiny."After two months with Beats's Solo3 headphones, this is still my first reaction when pulling the company's on-...

I wish I liked the Solo3 headphones more: They really are quite beautiful, and fit over my ears much more like an over-ear model. The sound quality is excellent, though a bit bass-heavy, and spoken content is just as good. But at $299, the Solo3 is bumpin...

The Beats Solo3 Wireless are the first pair of headphones to utilize the new Apple W1 chip that can be found in earphones like the AirPods. This, along with the Beats logo and branding, helps explain the $299.95 price. The W1 chip does offer greater conve...

A bit overpriced, Headband can get uncomfortable during longer listening sessions...

The Beats Solo3 Wireless headphones use Apple's W1 chip for easier connectivity with iOS devices and deliver a balanced Bluetooth audio experience for bass lovers, but feel a tad expensive...

If you want to condense Apple's 2016 down to a pithy mission statement, it's this: war on wires. Along with the traditional spec upgrades of iPhones and MacBooks, the Cupertino company this year ditched the headphone jack from its flagship smartphone and...

Flimsy, plastic-rich construction, Not great at handling acoustic music, You won't get the most out of these without an iOS device...

These are Beats by Dre, probably the most iconic and most popular brand of headphones ever because of the amount of advertising, brand endorsements, and let's not forget the number of pro athletes that have a pair on every time we see them. While they are...

Apple's recent announcement that it was releasing some goofy-looking wireless earbuds for $159 netted plenty of attention, but the geek vitriol overshadowed a key point—that Apple had developed a new wireless chip called the W1. The signaling around the W...

The biggest news here surrounds the W1, which makes all other Bluetooth headphones suddenly look like a tin can and string. Designed to make pairing seamless, one button press autopairs the headphones not just with your iPhone but with any other iOS devic...

Despite all the upgrades, $300 is still an awful lot to pay for headphones, even if they are as much status symbol as audio device. (You can even get them finished in rose gold to match your fancy new phone.) Some may find the fit to be exceptionally snug...

In the Solo3 box is a well-sized canvas carrying case, an analog cable with iOS controls, a charging cable, and a small Beats-branded carabiner. The carabiner lets you hang the carrying case from your bag, to ensure that everyone around you knows that you...

The Beats Solo3 Wireless ($300) needs no introduction. Its predecessors have been extremely popular in recent years, and equally infamous to many in the audiophile community. The Solo3 is the first headphone available using Apple's new W1 chip — Apple's A...

There are three reasons why wireless headphones mostly suck and I've steered clear of dropping serious dough on a pair: poor sound quality, frustrating pairing and weak battery life.Beats' new Solo 3 wireless on-ear headphones solve all three. And they do...

For better or for worse, Beats might be the most well-known audio brand out right now. They haven't released anything new in a while, and now that the iPhone 7 is out we know why. The new Beats products come with Apple's new W1 chip. This chip is supposed...

The Beats Solo3 Wireless got me very excited for the future of wireless headphones, just not for the Solo3. Connecting to iOS is a breeze and the benefits of the W1 chip range from a simple pairing process, to an insane battery life. In my opinion the bui...
