Uncomfortable too-snug fit, not studio-monitor quality, no track forward feature for android, if you're going to spend 300+ for headphones, look elsewhere, unless you simply want to be part of the Beats religion.

The original Monster Beats by Dr Dre model, the Studio is the headphone responsible for introducing an entire generation to high-end portable audio.

Nice Headphones

The Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones combine quality Bluetooth audio and above-average noise cancellation.

Rich, crisp sound signature with a focus on high-mid definition; Wireless audio and active noise cancellation; NC can be disabled to save battery life; Apple W1 chip makes pairing with iOS devices even more simple

Expensive; No passive listening mode; Adaptive aspect of NC is not impressive

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.

I can tell you the exact moment I was sold on Beats by Dre's extraordinary Studio3 wireless headphones . I was walking down Fifth Avenue, my blue Studio3 headphones hugging my ears as I listened to a new podcast featuring Nerdist CEO Chris Hardwick and Adam Savage.

I travel a ton for work. Up until recently, the noise on the plane (despite my existing headphones) didn't bother me, but that quickly changed. I started looking into noise canceling options, and between look, style, sound quality and price point, these Studio3 headphones have it all!

In 2016 Beats upgraded two of its most popular headphones - the Powerbeats and Solo - and released the all new Beats X . All three came equipped with the same W1 chip that makes the Apple AirPods so convenient to pair for iPhone users.

Ridiculously long battery life; very enjoyable sound quality and comfortable design; great ease-of-use for Apple users thanks to W1 chip; lots of bass

Pauses music when notifications come through on Apple Watch; plastic design might not suit everyone; lots of bass

Here's a bold statement: Beats headphones have gotten better since Apple bought the company. They're still kind of a trick, fuelled by premium marketing from the tech company that invented premium marketing. The new Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones are no different. They're better!

Bought a pair of Studio 3's at the Apple Store earlier today, and I am quite happy with the headphones. They are comfortable and the noise cancellation works great. I can walk around the house without my phone and keep music playing, and bluetooth connects quickly even between devices.
