Despite the niggles, for the first time we are properly impressed by the price and balance on offer from the Beats Studio series. Normally, these headphones are big and expensive with overly bassy sound, but this time they're actually a little lighter on...

If you own an Apple devices then the Beats Studio 3 may be the right choice for you. For Android users, who won't benefit from the boost of the Apple W1 chip, the experience is distinctly average. The Sony WH-1000XM2 or Bowers & Wilkins PX offer a greater...

I will never forget hearing my first pair of Beats headphones many years ago. They were all the rage in a kiosk in a Monster Cable booth at CES. It was a self-serve demo of the headphones, which had an aesthetic resembling that of a Michael Jordan Nike sh...

All of the players in the $400 wireless headphone space have great battery life, but the Beats Studio3 offers the best by far, especially if you leave the noise cancelation turned off. A 40hour battery life is insane, and the fact that the headphones char...

If the pairing of Apple's W1 chip and solid noise-cancellation sounds like music to your ears, you'll love the $349 Beats Studio 3 Wireless. They're not quite as comfortable or top-tier as the QC35s, but if easy connectivity and lengthy battery life matte...

Should you get the Studio3? It doesn't sound much better than even the Solo2 Wireless, and costs $50 more than the Solo3, which is a tough sell when Bose's QuietComfort 35 headphones are available for $329. Sony's MDR-1000X costs about as much as the Stu...
