Beats Studio Pro: Features

Using the Beats Studio Pro is like a mix of excitement and disappointment. They're easy to set up, especially for Apple users. You can quickly connect them to your iPhone or Mac like you do with AirPods. You can also change noise cancellation settings easily.

Once you put them on, they work fine. But if you use them for a while, you start noticing what they're missing. For example, you can't connect them to your phone and computer at the same time, which is something other headphones can do. This feature is only available for Android users, which is odd since these headphones are mostly for iPhone users. And if you have an Android phone, you need to download an extra app to access all the settings that iPhone users get automatically.

Another annoying thing is that they don't pause when you take them off like some other headphones do. So, you might forget to turn them off manually.

But there are some good things too. You can listen to high-quality audio using a USB-C cable. However, you can't use some features like noise cancellation or transparency mode at the same time. Also, you can adjust the sound using USB-C, but not with Bluetooth.

The battery life is okay. They can last up to 40 hours without noise cancellation and 24 hours with it. That should be enough for a week for most people. And if they run out of battery, you can get four hours of use in just 10 minutes of charging.

Beats Studio Pro: Sound Quality

The Beats Studio Pro headphones sound really nice when you're using them normally. They have strong bass, which is great for songs with a lot of energy. 

If you switch to listening to a podcast, the bass goes down but the sound is still clear and detailed. If you have an iPhone, you can enjoy special features like personalized spatial audio and Dolby Atmos, which make the sound even better. Android users also get good sound, but they don't get the special spatial audio features like iPhone users.

The headphones don't have an option to change the sound settings, except when you're using a USB-C cable. Using USB-C also lets you listen to very high-quality audio, but you'll need to buy an extra cable if you have an iPhone. When you're listening to high-quality audio, you can choose between different sound modes like Beats Signature or Entertainment mode, which is good for watching movies or playing games.

The headphones are good at blocking out noise, especially when you're at home. But when you're walking near a busy road, they don't block out as much noise as some other headphones, like the Sony WH-1000XM4. This might be because they don't fit as snugly, especially if you wear glasses.

Beats Studio Pro: Design

The Beats Studio Pro headphones have a classic design that many people like. They're light and look nice compared to other bulky headphones. You can fold them up for easy storage, though the sound they make when folding might be a little strange. They come with a case and cables, but they don't include a cable for iPhones that use USB-C, which might be a hint that iPhones will switch to USB-C soon.

The buttons to control the headphones are on the Beats logo and there's another button for power and other functions on the right ear cup. It's easier to use buttons than gestures, but pressing on your head might feel weird. We prefer using phone or smartwatch to control them.

One problem is that these Beats headphones might be too tight, especially if you have a big head. You can adjust them a bit, but they might still feel uncomfortable, especially if you wear them for a long time. There's not much padding on the headband, which can be uncomfortable, even if you have thick hair. You can try adjusting them to find a more comfortable position, but they might not feel as luxurious as you'd like.

Beats Studio Pro: Value

The Beats Studio Pro headphones cost a lot and they come with many good things, but they don't have everything that other headphones at the same price do. Some people might think about buying the Sony WH-1000XM5 or 1000XM4 instead because they have more features, but they're not as stylish as the Beats Studio Pro.

Even though the Beats Studio Pro might be missing some features, they have all the important things you need. The only problem might be if you have a bigger head, because they might not fit well.

Beats Studio Pro: Price

In the UAE, the Beats Studio Pro headphones are selling within price range from AED 999:00 to AED 1,349:00.

Final Thoughts

The Beats Studio Pro offers hassle-free, good-sounding headphones with stylish design. While they may not be the absolute best in sound quality, they still provide a satisfying listening experience. Additionally, they support lossless audio via USB-C for compatible devices. If these factors align with your preferences, the Beats Studio Pro is worth considering for your headphone needs.
