Beats Studio3 Wireless Noise Cancelling Over Ear Headphones Review

Beats Studio3 Wireless Noise Cancelling Over Ear Headphones offer an ergonomic fit and premium feel as well as good audio quality. They also offer excellent battery life and noise cancellation. They are compatible with iOS and Android devices, and Noise Cancelling Headphones Microphone are simple to connect.

The headphones are fitted with Apple's W1 chips, which make it easy to connect them and switch between Apple products. This is a huge benefit for Apple users.

Sound

The Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones are a bit of a departure from the company's first model. The headphones are lighter and more comfortable thanks to more sleek design and Pure Adaptive noise cancellation that blocks out low-frequency noise to help you concentrate. There are other features, such as an integrated microphone that makes the headphones ideal for phone calls.

The sound quality is exactly what you would expect from Beats headphones. Although Beats headphones have a reputation as being too bassy, these aren't. The Studio3s have a rounded sound, with clear vocals and precise instruments.

They're not as spectacular as high-end cans like Bose's, however they're still excellent and far better than the Studio2 Wireless. The active noise cancellation (ANC) is fantastic for reducing ambient noises to let you concentrate on your music but it's not ideal. It's not as effective in blocking out the sound of a plane as a genuine ANC pair of headphones, and you can still hear some low-mid frequency sound when ANC is disabled.

The Studio3s are controlled by a central button behind the Beats logo located on the left ear cup. A single press plays and pauses the music, while double and triple presses let you skip tracks or go back. The button features volume controls that are embedded in the ring of plastic.

These headphones automatically pair with your iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad in the event that you're part of the Apple ecosystem. They also connect to iCloud. They work with other Bluetooth devices also, and you can switch between them easily with no audio-visual lag. The Bluetooth connection is strong and stable with a great distance and no dropouts.

The Studio3s boast a long battery longevity. You can listen for up 22 hours with wireless and ANC on this model, which is more than double the time it took to play with the previous model. You can also use the 3.5mm plug to listen even when the battery is out.

Design

The Beats Studio3 Wireless Headphones look almost identical to what they looked like a year ago, yet they're with the latest technology. Apple's W1 chip allows for simple pairing and switching between iOS devices such as an iPhone or iPad. The headphones also support fast charging, with 10 minutes of power, resulting in 3 hours of playback.

The headphones have an over-ear design that rest comfortably on the ears. They're available in Shadow Gray, Porcelain Rose, Matte Black, White Blue, Red and Shadow. The earcups of the headset are covered with soft cushions that have a rubbery feel. It's not everyone's preference but they're comfortable to wear for long periods. The headband is too snug and ensures a tight seal but it's also cushioned and soft.

A small button located on the left side of the ear cup controls the most basic features including answering calls and playing music. The buttons above and beneath the Beats logo control the volume. Double tapping can move or switch tracks. The headset also has an incredibly small button on the bottom which can turn the headphones on and off or enable ANC by holding down two quick taps, and put them into pairing mode by holding it down for a few minutes. The headset comes with an audio cable and a remote control that can be used to take calls with non-wireless devices.

Pure ANC is a modified noise cancelling headphones microphone cancellation feature found on Beats headphones that block out noise. It promises to remove distortion in noisy environments like the train station that is crowded or a crowded office. We tested the feature with the mix of music from various genres, and it was able to reduce distracting sounds to a light whooshing that didn't bother the ears. However, we noticed that the sound of cars passing was not eliminated, and the reverberation from the subway tunnel was evident.

Overall, the Beats Studio3 wireless headphones are an excellent pair of headphones for people who are in a noisy area and need to shield their music from the noise. They are also very lightweight, with a comfortable fit that is comfortable after long periods of wearing.

Battery life

Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones use lithium batteries that are high-efficiency to deliver 22 hours of battery life, even with active noise cancellation off. This is a decent amount of time, although not as long as the Bose QuietComfort 35 II or Sony WH-1000XM2.

Apple's W1 Bluetooth chip is utilized in the Beats Studio3 Wireless. This means they connect and pair faster than most wireless headphones. They also keep their outstanding ZIHNIC Wireless Bluetooth Headphones - Noise Cancelling - Red range and can be used well away from your phone without losing signal. That's a huge benefit for anyone planning to do any traveling with headphones.

The Beats headphones come with a tough protective case and the cable is equipped with a 3.5mm input for when you're listening to music or other non-wireless devices. The case can be folded into a flat position, and the cable is equipped with an integrated remote and microphone to take calls.

The "b" logo is a multi-function button on the left ear cup. A single press will play or pause music when pressed twice, and a triple-press will skip to the next track. A triple-press will rewind to the previous song. In addition, you can click this button to access your phone's smart assistant.

The right earcup has the power button as well as five LED indicators which inform you of how much the remaining battery life is. The lights aren't as bright as the ones on Bose models with ANC however they give you a rough idea of how much power is left. Pressing the power button twice will turn on the active noise cancellation, if it is off.

The Beats Studio3 Wireless headphone's design is designed to be optimized for iOS devices. This restricts their use on other platforms and renders the remote control built into the cord ineffective. They can be connected to Android phones however, you'll need to install an app from a third party to control them. Apple's hard-optimization may be a hindrance for some users, particularly those who intend to use the headphones with a variety of devices. In the near future, Beats might make an updated model that is compatible with other platforms.

Controls

The Studio3 Wireless headphones are equipped with a range of controls. Contrary to many Beats headphone designs, the majority of them are located on the left (apart from the power button on the right). Pressing the 'b' icon on the left ear cup once will stop or play music. By pressing it twice, you can skip to the next track. By pressing it three times, you can switch back to an earlier track. You can also press and hold the logo to activate the smart assistant on your phone.

Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones are not just great for listening to music, but they also act as a noise cancelling pair. They use a microphone on each earcup to be aware of the surrounding and, thanks to Beats audio processing and Apple's W1 chip, the adaptive noise cancelling is always on - without draining your battery. The headphones can adjust to your fit, and correct leakage caused by glasses, hair and ear shapes that are different.

When you are not using your headphones they can be folded and keep them in a convenient case that also doubles as display. The case is robust and comes with a comfortable carry pouch to help you fit it into your bag when you're on the move.

You can connect the Beats Studio3 Wireless headphones to your device through Bluetooth, which is easy to set up. They are compatible with any device that supports class 1 Bluetooth. This includes iPhone, iPad, Mac and many more. If you need to connect them to something that does not support Bluetooth there's an 3.5mm input at the left side of the ear cup.
