Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones - Mickeys 90th Anniversary Edition (Renewed)

AUTHENTICITY I'll just start out with this because I know it's the biggest concern when buying something as expensive as this on Amazon, plus it's refurbished. I was initially concerned after watching a YouTube video comparing fake and authentic Beats where the guy had a rose gold pair that he claimed was fake because the headphone cord that came with it is white while the charger cord is black and his black pair came with both black cords. However, I think this is a purposeful design choice by Beats and don't think it's a reason to worry. The easiest way to tell if Beats are real are not (at least the Solo 3) is that authentic ones have the W1 chip that will automatically connect to your Apple device, and fake ones don't have that Apple W1 chip. Again I was a little worried when my Beats didn't connect after I pressed the power button just once like the instructions said, but on a second try I decided to hold the button down for a few seconds and then the lights started slowly blinking and the headphones instantly connected to my phone in the exact manner as my AirPods so these are 100% authentic. Even if you're still worried about the authenticity, the great news is that mine came with a card from Amazon saying that because this was refurbished, you have 90 days to try it or return it. So when you get yours, just set an event in your calendar 2 months in the future to remind you to decide whether you think you've been scammed and are happy or not. COLOR This is a beautiful color much like the gold iPhone 8's (not too brassy gold, not too pink), although is slightly different because the iPhone has a glass back which makes it glossy and these are matte. I was initially concerned about the matte because I remembered how the matte black iPhone 7 scratched easier than the glossy black iPhone 7 did (the Apple references are because Apple makes Beats), but so far these seem to be less scratch-prone than glossy Beats. In doing some research on these, I did see a review on the Apple website saying that this color has a tendency to turn blue on the foam earpieces but I have not yet had that experience. QUALITY These are great headphones! I was initially concerned about getting refurbished headphones but mine connected to Bluetooth perfectly, all of the buttons work, and there is no signs of physical wear on them, so I'm really glad I saved $100 going refurbished. The sound is great and these are supposed to get over 40 hours of battery life. I got them to study with and even though they are on-ear, they are so plushy that they don't hurt my ears or squeeze at all and are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. Another feature that makes them very comfortable is that they are lightweight so you don't get a headache from dead weight on your head. However, there is a tradeoff for this lightness and that is noise cancelling. The SOLO3 has NOISE ISOLATION which I researched and found basically just means it covers your ears enough to muffle out the sounds; the STUDIO3 has NOISE CANCELING which has a chip to actually filter out sounds and dramatically reduce what noise you hear, and are also over-ear so they encompass your whole ear and better block out sound. If you are traveling or need to actually drown out other people, the STUDIO might be better for you. But if you just want to listen to music and have at least a little bit of noise muffled out (more than what the AirPods can do), then the SOLO might be enough for you.The STUDIO is more expensive and heavier, though. Beats Studio3 Wireless Headphones WHAT YOU GET Lastly, what you get in the box are the headphones which fold up, a travel pouch (with a Beats logo that in the same matte gold), a cord to connect your headphones to a headphone jack (so if for some reason you don't like wireless or are having Bluetooth issues; note-- you'll need a dongle to use with iPhone 7 and newer though since those don't come with a headphone jack), a charging cord (but no cube so you'll just have to borrow your phone's cube), and a carabiner-type clip to hook the travel pouch on to your bag (oh and the pouch has a pocket which can hold both cords).

Great headphones, I'd say go for it and buy them. They're cheaper than the beats I have bought from target/Walmart and sound just the same. The bass is even better on these.

Great sound great look really can’t tell it’s refurbished. 10/10

Good

So far, they work. They also sound great. I appreciate the fact it came with a carrying case. I had to buy a remote talk cable and so far I haven't had to use it. I won't lie I thought they were fake at first but it's recognized on the Beats app so that eased my mind. Worth the price to me

I got this as a gift and I love them so loud and comfortable. Everything I wanted ..long battery life and charges real quick…they get really loud.

I am beyond furious. I was genuinely looking forward to receiving these headphones, only to open the box and find that they are completely defective. The battery hardware is broken, meaning they don’t even turn on. How is it possible for a company to ship out a product in this condition? It is clear that there is zero quality control happening before these items are sent out. There is no way this issue would have been missed if the product had actually been tested. Instead of enjoying my purchase, I am now stuck dealing with the massive hassle of a return process for a third-party seller. Do not waste your time or money here—they clearly do not care about the quality of the products they ship to their customers. Extremely disappointed and would give zero stars if I could I am beyond furious.

Fantastic!!

Buena inversión en relación precio-calidad. Estéticamente muy bonitos, cancelación de ruido exterior y gran calidad en el audio. Recomendados.

Je trouve que l’écouteur est en parfaite état et magnifiquement confortable et contrôlable en les entendant avec nos oreilles

Excelentes como siempre

Je les adores. MERCI Amazon

These were absolutely great. But one side got broken or loose, now I have to be at a certain angle to listen to my music properly.
