No issues

The wireless range is decent, if i need to walk outside but leave my device in my room the range stays fine but obviously extended lengths the range will drop. Many people workout with these wireless headphones but i simply can not without struggling to pull them back up or the falling off which is quite embarrassing. Recommended for listening to music, sounds etc. but not too much for exercise.

A great product with good sound, a bit expensive tho.

published

Really good sound quality and come in a good bag which can be packed away easily. Pros: comfortable, accessible, wireless and wired, looks aesthetically good, good sound quality. Cons: after having them on for a very long time, my ears sometimes hurt but this is only occasionally after long periods. Also expensive.

So darn good

published

They headphones have been the best thing I have ever brought. Working out in the gym with no wires anywhere makes it so easy and takes the hassle away of putting your phone somewhere or having cords flick you in the face. The headphones are so quick to charge up and last for hours and hours I think I charge them every few months and I work out 4 times a week for an hour.

About Beats Solo3

published

Unfortunately no use of lightning or TYPE-C interface charging cable, mobile phones are now the two interfaces, and then go out to take a separate line for it.Apple is exceptionally friendly with its own devices, adding cumbersome operations directly to the system level, making connectivity incredibly convenient. The IPhone, IPad, and Apple Watch are all directly up and down, while also showing power.Charge for 5 minutes, listen to the song for 3 hours,Go out without a charger at all.

Great Battery life and colour!!

published

I bought my first over-ear headphones and i'm pretty happy with how they are. I got the rose gold.
The sound quality is great, the microphone seems to work really well, LOVE that battery life. That's the main thing that got me over the line to buy it.
The one thing I would do differently is consider the white leather base (needs to be wiped clean) and also probably would have thought more about noise cancelling as well because when you're spending that much money it's not much more to get that as well, although then I wouldn't have been able to get rose gold.
Overall, really recommend, just think about whether you want noice cancelling or not!

Horrible

published

These beats cost to much damn money for them to go bad a after a 1yr 1/2 .. the don’t charge and right side no sound ! If I wanted poor quality I would have bought some $10 head phones. Apple Beats suck basically if you don’t buy an extended warranty you have to pay $120 for another pair.

Great for runners

published

Great quality, I personally love their sound and 5 stars as far as noise-cancelling goes. Bass is nothing mind-blowing, albiet better than my Apple airpods. Super compact for travellers (they come with their own case too) and light enough to run with. Can hurt a little after 2 hours but as do any headphones.

Superb voice quality

published

Recently purchased the Beats headphones for my daughter. Its definitely an excellent product. Compared the sound quality with other headsets. This is definitely the best head set as far as quality of sound is concerned or the aesthetics. The Bass and treble have perfect balance in this one . This is definitely best.

Superb quality but costly.

published

I have bought solo last month from their online store. After doing research form YouTube review. sound quality is good but not as good as other same price headphones. I listen to my friend headphone which was much better than this solo and cost around $100 from china but for now I will stick to my solo headphone for now.

Great headphones

published

I had the non-wireless Solo3 for six years which were great too, but these are so easy to use. They link up to your phone as soon as you turn them on. The sound is also great. Bit of a rip off when full price but if you buy on sale its a good deal.

Nice sound.

published

These are super awesome headphones. They are wireless and so is easy to connect to your device.
The only thing I would say is only buy these if you don’t like your ears fully covered or only buy if you have small ears LOL. They have a small ear muff compared to the studios 3.

Extremely comfortable

published

I used to be one of those people that thought beats were overpriced and overrated. Maybe the first part is still true but i was basing my opinion wholly on online comments. Then I got to try the real thing at a electronic store and after putting it over my ear I could quickly understand why they were so popular. These headphones may not be as good as the other brands when it comes to sound quality but for most people sound quality isn't everything, so long as it's not stock apple earphone sound quality. What sets these apart from other headphones is the comfort.

The headphones only work through one ear.

published

I've only had this product for half a year and the headphones only work through one ear now. I got these headphones for free through the Apple Store when they were giving free headphones for every MacBook purchase through the education pricing. I am not very happy. If they can agree to fix my headphones, I can maybe buy from them again very soon for my brother's birthday coming up as he does use them as well.

Otherwise, initially the headphones gave great sound quality.

Stylish and Sound proof

published

These beats head phones are so in trend and not just for their variety of colour selection or style, but for the sound quality, the bass. This item I bought for the gym and the sound definition really gets me PUMPED for the gym, motivates me to push harder and really is worth the money.

Best headphones

published

I love these headphones! The colour and the sound and the fact it folds away into a little bag! Having them be wireless is great too because cords are always getting in the way, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve ripped earphones out of my ears and boy it hurts!
I have the rose gold beats and they are absolutely beautiful and match my rose gold iPhone perfectly!

Great sound and looks great

published

These headphones are built well and are great quality. The sound is amazing, it’s almost like everything else is blocked out. They feel secure on your head but can sometimes feel a little tight as though they’re trying to hold on if you know what I mean. Besides that they are a great product.

Questions & Answers

Jason H

Jason Hasked

Does it seem like complete rubbish, or even hatchet jobs that all but one review from every review with 1 - 3 stars are not verified purchases? Also, the one review that is a verified purchase explains that his purchase was a gift?
I know, right??
Next, a lot of there faults people are finding in these are that they're falling off the heads of owners while they're working out, when in fact they're simply not the sharpest tools in the shed in the first place by not buying the much more activity styled earbud type??

I'm thinking of purchasing a set, and I can't help but wonder why all of the lower scores recorded seem especially nonsensical and by non-verified purchases

Ok, Jason. I’m the verified buyer. Purchased 2 sets, the Black/Red & the Limited edition Mickey 90th. I too read the reviews and wonder when one is purchasing an item they need to look at all aspects. Whether it’s Beats or any other brand, headphones have their own purpose. The whole overview of this item is it’s use. The clarity is great, it’s wireless and at this stage tested to up to 3 metres, they are comfortable around the ears and head, stylish. As per previous notes, personally designed for walking, light jogging ie. everyday use. Personally, as first time a Beats users, am very happy.
Hope this has aided your question.

Thank you for the reply but no, Mortishia, no you're not. I asked about the people who rated these in their reviews of this product with 1 - 3 stars. with only one of them listed as a verified purchase, but who actually received these as a gift.

Most others who rated them higher were verified, and it's only the lower ratings that aren't verified and, as such, I was wondering if they were possibly running with agendas who're just out to slag the competition...

It just seems a little odd ;-)

I have the beats set and the right hand side has some sort of a wire problem. It cuts in and out like the wire isn't connected correctly.

Hi Charmaine,

I too have the same issue but it may just be wear/tear depending on how long you have them.

If the beats are fairly new you should be able to go back to the manufacture and get a replacement wire should it still be under warranty.
