Incredible wireless range, 40 hour battery life, Great design
No noise cancellation, Better-sounding headphones available at this price, Limited range of colours at launch
Beats has been quietly upping its game over the past few years, and the Solo3 Wireless is easily the best pair of cans it has ever put out. Pairng with Apple's tech team has made them even more of a must-have if you're an iPhone 7 owner, or if you're lik...

W1 connectivity for Apple users, big bass, long battery life, quick charge
Snug fit is a little too snug, bass can drown out detail, expensive
The Beats Solo 3 headphones offer a great music experience for a certain listener. The W1 connectivity options and huge battery life are certainly the stars of the show for the Solo 3.When it comes to sound quality the headphones perform, but not for all...
40-hour battery life, Light and comfortable, Ridiculously simple pairing
Sound not to everyone's taste, Quite expensive
Looking at sound quality on its own may leave you questioning the £250 price tag, but Beats has never been about sound alone. The argument used to be that you're paying for fashion, but with the Solo 3 you're paying for a lot more than that. You're also g...

Love the Mickey Mouse design, Clean and subtle design (aside from Mickey), Apple has refined the Beats sound, Comfy for over ear headphones, Nice felt carrying case, W1 Chip on board, Battery life and Bluetooth are solid
While Apple has refined the sound, Beats are still leaning to the bass side, Like the Beats Studio3's, the clamping power is significant, No USB-C charging, No pocket inside carrying case for cable storage
Mickey Mouse lovers will love these. If you're just looking for a nice pair of headphones, then these will serve you well, especially if you're into a more bass heavy sound. At the current sale price I think they're perfectly priced, at the normal price...
Expensive, especially considering their relative performance
The Beats Solo3 are fairly good headphones that still fail to live up to their list price. If you're considering spending $300 on wireless headphones, there are much better options available...
Superb Battery Life, Easy Setup for iPhone, iPad and Mac Users, Easy to Find Deeply Discounted, Compact Design
Plastic Feels Cheap, Overpriced at Full MSRP of $299, Sound Quality Good, Not Great, Android Users Miss Out on Best Features, Love and Hate for The Beats Solo 3, Love how great these headphones work with Apple devices and that they live up to the 40 hr ba
Plastic Feels Cheap, Overpriced at Full MSRP of $299, Sound Quality Good, Not Great, Android Users Miss Out on Best Features
I wish I liked the Solo3 headphones more: They really are quite beautiful, and fit over my ears much more like an over-ear model. The sound quality is excellent, though a bit bass-heavy, and spoken content is just as good. But at $299, the Solo3 is bumpin...

Powerful, bass-forward (but balanced) audio performance, Apple W1 chip enhances experience with iOS devices, Detachable cable with inline remote for passive listening
A bit overpriced, Headband can get uncomfortable during longer listening sessions
The Beats Solo3 Wireless headphones use Apple's W1 chip for easier connectivity with iOS devices and deliver a balanced Bluetooth audio experience for bass lovers, but feel a tad expensive...
