This means 22 hours of listening to music with ANC turned on and 40 hours with it off. It’s all very slick and intuitive to use.īoth the Beats Solo Pro and Studio3 Wireless have exactly the same impressive battery life. As with the Solo Pros you can also speak to your chosen voice assistant by holding the B button.
You’ll find all of the controls on the left earpiece with the same Beats logo interactions. The Studio3 Wireless headphones do have a power button but a very similar control set up. Smartly, there’s no on/off switch, instead going on and off when you unfold and fold the headband. The volume controls are above and below the logo which is nice and intuitive and you can control the ANC with a button located under the left earpiece.
Pressing this once will answer calls and play and pause music, and pressing twice will go to the next song. When it comes to controls, the Solo Pro keeps things simple with most of the heavy lifting done by the Beats logo on the right earpiece.
If you are looking for a neater option, the metal of the Solo Pros is a particularly attractive design element and they come in six colours. Design wise, this means the Beats Solo Pro have a more minimalist approach and are noticeably smaller but both models look very Beats, all smooth lines and a slick aesthetic.
