Beats Studio Buds + review

Can these Beats march to a new rhythm?

Punchy, clean sound ; Deep bass ; Improved ANC and Transparency Mode ; Good design

Rivals offer more sonic detail, texture and dynamic prowess ; Fierce competition at this price

Beats’ latest buds are neatly designed with many attractive features, but they fall short on sound quality compared with the market leaders at this price

Beats Studio Buds Plus review: a clear wireless earbuds upgrade

The new Beats buds look great, but are looks enough?

Great looks, including Transparent option ; Good noise cancellation plus a transparency mode ; Configurable on-bud controls

Overly crisp sound quality ; No wireless charging

The new Beats Studio Buds Plus boast a stunning design, great battery life and a firm yet comfortable fit. They are also relatively feature-packed, with great features migrated from the iOS world such as spatial audio, Find My app and Siri voice...

ANC isn't customisable

The Beats Studio Buds Plus are amazingly versatile wireless earbuds with beautifully rounded sound, elevated ANC performance, added Transparency mode, a new chip/acoustic platform, longer battery life and a premium build. Beats improved all areas that...

Beats Studio Buds+ review: The best Beats buds for most people

The Beats Studio Buds+ are promising a better fit, better sound and better noise cancellation. Should you buy them? Here's our full review.

Fun, energetic sound ; Spacious soundstage ; Good noise cancellation at its level ; Comfortable design

Treble lacks some refinement ; No wear sensor ; No wireless charging

The Beats Studio Buds+ are a fun, energetic listen that offer improved noise cancellation and better battery life. You'll find a touch more refinement in pricier buds but the total package on offer here is fantastic for the price.

Beats Studio Buds+ review: bringing Apple to Android

Beats upgrades its everyday in-ears with better sound. Can the Beats Studio Buds+ hold their own against so many rivals?

Work on Android as well as iOS ; Transparency finish great ; Decent sound quality

Rivals are hard to beat ; Not the best fit ; No wireless charging

The ‘+’ brings a fine upgrade to buds that were pretty good already. But who needs the Beats Studio Buds+ when rivals are so accomplished?

Beats Studio Buds Plus review: it’s cool to be clear

I can't stop looking at these earbuds. You might've already seen leaks about the new Beats Studio Buds Plus, available beginning today for $169.99, but there's something even more attention-grabbing about their translucent design in person. Maybe it's...

Better sound, ANC, and battery life than Studio Buds ; Standout translucent case option ; Improved voice call performance

ANC and transparency fall short of second-gen AirPods Pro ; Doesn’t offer all Apple ecosystem tricks ; No wireless charging or in-ear detection

Every time I show them to someone, they’re a hit. You can also buy them in black or ivory, but come on. Where’s the fun in that? The AirPods Pro are functionally superior, and the Beats Fit Pro might make better gym companions, but these are a clear...
