After years of minor revisions to the Solo line, Beats has delivered a true reinvention with the Solo Pro. Bringing top-notch adaptive noise cancelling to its on-ear offering for the first time, Beats Solo Pro is a marked step-up from its previous iterations – particularly when it comes to build...

Excellent battery life; Impressive ANC performance; Stunning design; Surprisingly sturdy

Lightning port only; Lacks 3.5mm Aux port; Headband pressure too firm

The Beats Solo Pro makes few compromises between form and function. The design will appeal to many while the Beats moniker still informs passersby of the brand. Noise-cancelling is uniquely effective for on-ear headphones. Unfortunately, comfort is an issue after an hour.

If you've been putting that purchase off, be glad you waited: The Beats Solo Pro that just came out in October 2019 are currently $50 off at Amazon. At $249.95, they're cheaper than the Studio3, which are Beats' only other pair of noise-canceling headphones. According to Amazon price tracker CamelCamelCamel, this is the first time they've been discounted since their release. The Beats Solo line hadn't seen an upgrade in three years and Beats went hard on this massive redesign. They're chic, matte, minimalistic, and look more "pro" than Beats ever have. The active noise cancellation creates the same silent euphoria that everyone loved about the Studio3, now compacted into a practic...
