I purchased my Ivory Solo Pro headphones in December. Overall, I have been very satisfied with the satin gold Solo3 headphones that I already have, and I decided to get another pair for work. I was originally going to get a second pair of Solo3, but I chose these because they were on sale and the Solo3 had risen higher in price anyway than when I had got them about a year and a half ago. Sound - The sound quality on the Solo Pro headphones is excellent and the noise cancelling works effectively. I prefer to use the noise cancelling rather than not. With noise cancelling on, it lasts approximately 20+ hours or so. Like the Solo3, they do last about the same when noise cancelling is not on, at approximately 40 hours. Both headphones have good battery life - obviously, the Solo3 I charge less often due to no noise cancelling. If you are still considering Solo3, honestly, they have just as good of sound, sans the noise cancelling. Soundwise, I can recommend them both. Fit - overall, the fit on my Solo Pros are better. The Solo3 hurt pretty bad on my ears the first couple weeks when I initially bought them, but the Pro has larger ear cups which overall feel much more comfortable. Frame - The frame is sturdier. It's honestly a really great design from Apple/Beats. I noticed that the Solo3 are a tad more flimsy when folding/adjusting, etc. The Pro headphones are overall more hardy than the Solo3. Color - Currently, there aren't as many color options with the Solo Pro as there are with the Solo3. I chose Ivory for Solo Pro, and really like this color. See photos. Very sleek ivory color. Case - the case the headphones come with is more durable, so if you drop your headphones the case for Solo Pro provides better protection. As a whole, as an owner of both Solo Pro and Solo3, I would recommend the Solo Pro for sure if you're willing to spend the extra money. Solo Pro are less clunky as well. Instead of pushing and holding a button to turn on/off, you just unfold/fold them. The Bluetooth "jingle" when connecting is also less annoying. Better design, better design, and a little better sound quality overall.

So I bought a pair of these and the Bose quiet comfort 35 11 , and I got to say I didn’t expect these to complete with the Bose but wow they do I actually thing the stereo separation left to right is a little better on the beats , but the Bose seem a little more detailed when listening to easy rock music and are a lot more comfortable but they will destort at high volumes if you have a good source when listening to hip hop. When testing the same song Gerry Rafferty- get it right next time the beats hit 93 db at the highest note , while the Bose highest was 91 . The noise canceling obviously is better on the Bose but the beats is not bad . There is really no winner out these 2 with the beats on sale your almost 100 dollars cheaper. So bottom line if you want a pair for the gym and on the go these beats are perfect if your going to be wearing them for more than a few hours go for the over ear Bose , Sony . Etc the skull candy over the ear I was actually thinking of as well as Best Buy has them on display. The build quality on these is excellent as well I must say these are not your cheaply plastic made beats from the past they are solid

I was never a fan of beats. I stood in front of the headphones for 2 hours and thought about it. But bought them online for me because I need some gym headphones. They are more than enough. I like the sound very much. Noise-canceling is great. I only hear minimal noises in the gym. It's hard to believe, but these are my favorites right now. Sure there are others like Sony etc. But walking around in the gym with such over-ear headphones with sweat on my ears, no thanks. And they would also be too big on my ears for me. But I like the Sony as well. Great sound. But for the gym? Just beats..... I can now write a whole novel here. Our tastes are all different. Just order the headphones and judge for yourself. For me, these are the ideal gym headphones. Not too heavy and not too tight for me either. Also, my ears don't get tired after 30 minutes, as other reviews claim. We all have different ears too. I don't want all that EQ messing about where I need or want to adjust the sound. I only want a big butt-kicking sound. Small auricles, right on the ear, and easy to use. I only bought it as an open box. But I'll never do that again. As I said, I didn't want to waste too much on these headphones because I wouldn't say I liked the brand or because I wasn't interested. But when I unpacked the headphones at home, I saw that they were already used. Dirty, squeezed in, and the wax was still on it. I exchanged them on the same day and bought brand new ones. The supervisor was so nice and still sold it to me as an open box because he saw my disappointment. I was very grateful to him for that. Thanks so much !!
