I bought this at the flash sale which came out to $161! what a deal! Now i know not many people are fond of Beats and their quality of music but to be honest, if you are just an average consumer..this is good enough. I dont need or want some crazy ugly black headphones especially if you love traveling in fashion like me. I love designer products such as bags and jewelries.I have a gold ipad air 2 so the gold beats matches my ipad. The quality of the solo 2 has changed tremendously. back then you couldn't even pay me to use beats headphones not only because of the bad music quality but also it looks so tacky with those bright color shiny headphones that looks disgusting when theres fingerprint marks all over it (my husband has the beats studio 2.0 shiny headphones). The bluetooth is very strong! i have not had any issues with the bluetooth quality of my music unlike with JayBirds BlueBuds X where the music quality was a bit choppy and there would be times where there was a 5-10seconds lag and my music would stop or stutter. I ran around the house with the beats and there was NO interruptions. I have tried other headphones but they were simply too bulky & big for a woman who is 5'5 and 120lbs. I looked at the Bose headphones but the quality didnt seem very sturdy. they were made of cheaper plastic and would come off even if i move my head around (not good if you use it for walking and traveling!). I have compared Beats Solo 2 Wireless with Bose SoundLink On Ear headphones prior to writing this review. My mom has the Bose SoundLink so we compared both side by side. The Beats Solo 2 Wireless also sounds better when using the wire rather than the Bose SoundLink headphones. This is a very known issue and if you ask me, I would choose a product that can provide the same quality they boast about even using the wires. Compare next to each other, They have the same audio quality but the only difference is the Beats Solo 2 Wireless has more bass focusing on the instruments while the Bose Soundlink On Ear has less bass but more focusing more on the voice. Both headphones are good but it really depends on what kind of genres you like to listen to. I listen to Hip-Hop, EDM, House, & other genres that has more bass so I personally prefer the quality of Beats than Bose. Beats is also better if you are going to use on ear headphones at the gym. My mom used the Bose SoundLink On Ear while i used the Beats Solo 2 Wireless and she complained about how the Bose kept coming off even though she wasnt doing heavy movements while the Beats stayed on my ear even while doing cardio. Both Headphones also has some audio bleeding. Before buying this Headphones, I had the Jaybirds Bluebuds Earbuds and i returned it. Frankly, that earbuds has so much bad reviews of it not being durable and even though they were like heaven sent if you are a gym rat like me, I cannot see myself spending $130 for a earbud thatll only last me few weeks or few months. not to mention, they hardly stay in my ear. And yes, i dont think this product is worth $299. The amount I paid for should be the appropriate amount they should sell. they are not worth more than $150 (I paid $161 including tax) but so is the Bose SoundLink which costs $249.

The sound is clear. I really like that the headphones are wireless as I listen to the beats while I workout at the gym. adjusting the volume Is just the push of a button. The battery last me a whole week. Happy with the gold color. You will not be disappointed!

Hi, I purchased Beats Solo2 wireless beacause I needed great headphones For the right price. I was lucky to grab limited edition SPACE GREY for only 200! I love the sound and I love the comfort. I use them for the gym and have no issues running not lifting. Great buy!

4 years ago I purchased Beats by Dre studios from Best Buy. They were awsome, still have them today. But now I wanted to upgrade and that's why I purchased the wireless solo. The studio were a little too big for working out in and the earpods I just wasn't comfortable with. The wireless never loses signal no matter how much movement I make and the sound is incredible. Only thing I didn't like was that because the gray edition was a limited addition, they do not offer extended warranty. But other than that they're awsome.

Excellent. Not only can I listen to my music on my phone via Bluetooth tech, I can also take calls pretty much hands free. You simply take the call on your phone (press the answer button) and talk. What I like about this device is that when it runs out of power I can use the cord that comes with it to listen to music and take/end calls.
