There are a lot of things that are great about the Beats over-ear Bluetooth headphones, but there are better options out there, including the more expensive Studio Wireless. Earlier this year, I reviewed the Beats Solo 2, a significantly improved successor to one of the world’s most popular headphones. I liked the Solo 2 and think it’s one of the better on-ear headphones you can get for around $200 (\u00a3170, AU$260), though it helps if you prefer a livelier, more “exciting” sound profile.Searching for a replacementHeadphones Battery<\/a><\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are some advantages to this compactness. The headphones are lighter than the Studio Wireless and can be folded up and put into a smaller carrying case. Yes, it’s better for travel, but it’s also not as light as some competing on-ear headphones like the Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth (the Bose is about 2.2 ounces or 62 grams lighter).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s also worth mentioning that because the Beats Solo 2 Wireless are so comfortable to wear \u2014 the headphones stay securely on your head even when running \u2014 they end up being firmly pressed against your ears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This model doesn\u2019t offer the active noise cancellation that the Studio Wireless does (nor does it support AptX, but I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a big deal). In fact, Beats did use the Solo 2 as the basis for this headphone, and when you connect the headphone cable to it, it sounds almost identical to the wired Solo 2, which is to say, pretty good. This is something that the Bose doesn\u2019t have. When it\u2019s in wired mode, its sound quality degrades. The Beats\u2019 sound quality doesn\u2019t degrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the Beats Solo 2 Wireless headphone battery<\/a><\/u> <\/strong>life, it\u2019s rated for 12 hours, which is less than what the larger Studio Wireless offers, but still pretty good. A set of LED lights on the earcups serve as a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good Bluetooth headphones should sound as good as good wired headphones, and the Solo 2 Wireless does a good job of that, retaining many of the qualities of the wired Solo 2. But it does fall a little short in wireless mode. It’s a little harsh around the edges, and the bass isn’t as clean or tight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I wrote my Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth Headphones review, I said we preferred the Bose because it offered a more balanced sound with a warmer midrange. While the Solo 2 produced more bass, instruments sounded clearer on the Bose, and the overall listening experience was more enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I also reiterated that the Beats Solo 2 Wireless is a strong Bluetooth headphone\u2014its faster sound may be more suited to some listeners’ musical tastes\u2014but we preferred the sound of the Bose. It’s clearer and more open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, everyone’s sonic and aesthetic tastes are different, and some people will prefer the look and sound of this Beats to the Bose.

Conclusion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately, my gut feeling about this headphone is that I’d rather spend $80 more for the Studio Wireless, a more comfortable, better-sounding headphone. Yes, it’s a smaller, lighter headphone, and some people will find its compact size appealing. But at current prices, the Wireless Studio is arguably the better buy, even though it’s more expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
