Spent $300 only to have them stop charging after 3 weeks. Best Buy would not offer a refund because it exceeded their 2 week return policy. Very disappointed with the product and Best Buy.

So about a year ago I bought a pair of beats solo wireless. The volume on them was so low and it was just junk. I took them back the next day. So I was looking for a new set of head phones. And saw someone talking about how bears made some improvements. And I have to say these are the best d*** headphones I've ever owned the bass is great, they feel more durable, sound great and doesn't let a lot of noise in. the biggest issue I was worried about. THE SOUND DOESNT CHANGE NOR TYE VOLUME WHEN IN BLUETOOTH MODE. sound exactly the same as if you were using a cord.

The headphones are great but there's no bass to them. These headphones I would recommend but they're my second pair of beats and they already feel like there breaking apart.

It's not as loud as I thought it would be, and they could've done a little bit more better with the bass. Having the option of using Bluetooth for a wire, is great.

A honest and informative review

These headphones do produce good sound quality. Although not the best in the market, they are decent but the wireless technology is nothing new. The sleek design helps in its marketing. It easily fits with the visual aesthetic of Apple products. Unfortunately... Their craftsmanship is very poor. While pretty to look at, I find they sit just a bit too snuggly for extended wear. Whether you're an audiophile, gamer or just overall using them to lounge about in; you'll find yourself adjusting them frequently.
Next up is the constant disappointment in physical manufacturing. These headphones are meant to be powerful, compact and sleekly designed. With that said; you had best not fold them as they were designed to do. As with all headphones, wires are still used to connect the power supply to the speakers. Constant bending of the headphones WILL cause the wires to eventually break or become disconnected. At which point (if you're unlucky like me) you'll have to have them replaced and shipped back to the Apple repair center in Sparks, NV. That is a free process if you are still under warranty. (Just as an FYI, I bought mine in February 2015, and had them sent for this very reason in July of the same year just 6 months after purchase.)
The next thing to talk about is battery life. When fully charged the battery will last throughout most of the day (about 12 hours) without needing to charge a second time. Should that fail, you can still use the company supplied 3.5mm headphone conductor plug. Although that seems self-defeating and possibly one major reason of having purchased a set of Beats Solo 2 WIRELESS headphones in the first place... It's still a great back up. I found that there was no difference in audio quality or playback. Actually, if anything, the microphone on the audio jack conductor plug was too sensitive. I found that I easily overlooked that. What isn't easily overlooked is the constant Power Button malfunctions. (You can google this later if you want.) My Beats Solo 2 Wireless headphones had this very problem as well. Another 6 months after receiving my refurbished pair in July 2015 from Apple's repair center in Sparks, NV. You will be required to keep your Beats up to date with the latest Firmware/Software, and possibly have to soft reset them if you have this problem. At which point, if you still cannot turn them on, you will have to send them in.
I cannot stress enough how important it is to make sure that your warranty is kept up to date. If you're asking yourself, "Why?" My answer is this; should you have to have them fixed or replaced (and your warranty runs out just days before the faulty issues arise like mine did) you will be asked to pay a fixers fee BY APPLE for $129! Nearly half the price of the manufactural defected merchandise.
I've learned my lesson, having been through a set of Beats Studio and Beats Solo 2 Wireless headphones. I keep mine in darn near perfect condition and in my honest opinion when it comes accessories such as this... If it requires a secondary extended warranty, don't buy them. Go get a pair of BOSE, same quality (if not better) audio, definitive comfort for extended wear, superior noise cancellation and they will replace them if there is a manufactural defect regardless of how long you've had them. All this and a price point is the same if not less expensive. I'm no spokesperson, but I really hope I've been able to help you make a wiser decision. Even if you still buy these headphones, you will get good quality sound... Just not a well-crafted piece of technology. Thanks for reading.

Word of caution, these headphones are not red. I purchased them on-line for my son for Christmas. Well when he opened the box his first comment was "these are pink." I was thoroughly disappointed. The description says they are red, the picture shows them red, but what was in the box was clearly not red and not a color a boy/man would typically like. I'm returning them and buying him a pair of black ones; at least that color can't be messed up...I hope not anyway.

Went to my local BB and picked these up today , and all I can say is WOW the sound is amazing bass is powerful but not OP very balanced good for all types of music and extremely comfortable plus 12 hours on a full charge is excellent for me as I hate having to recharge alot like I did with the power beats 2 wireless which are also great sounding , now I can go all day and not worry about the battery best 300 bucks I spent on some quality sounding Bluetooth headsets , can't stand cords .

I bought this as a gift. I would have preferred to buy a higher rated headphone but bought this one because it is a popular name brand.

The battery seems to act like a old cell phone battery. If you don't let it die all the way then the charge starts to suck.

Good Presentation, good headphones. The thick cushioning dampens out extra noise. Still not sure if it is style over function.

Turn off in cold?

I love these headphones, and have used them every day since I got them. However, they turn off if I use them in the cold. Not super cold, around 30 degrees. I though that I was crazy at first until I tested it out a few times, with a fully changed battery, they still turn off after only a few minutes. I expected a lot more for such expensive headphones. I'm supposed to use them only part of the year?

I purschased these in store as an open item for $227, I assumed these were a good deal as they originally priced $299 and they were listed as "excellent condition" as Best Buy Geek Squad thoroughly inspects all open items. I get home to realize that the right ear had no sound and returned them. Luckily I found the beats solo 3 online for $224 brand new on the site and bought those instead.

A little overpriced for what you get. The volume isn't high enough in noisy areas.
