If you're like us and care about the quality of the music you're playing during your work outs, then it's a good idea to explore different headphone options. It's also worth knowing how secure headphones are if you're buying them for various workouts.
To assess the Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones, we put them through a variety of tests.
PERFORMANCE
Across the board, the Beats Solo3 Wireless Headphones performed exceptionally well. They rarely, if ever, had connectivity issues and did a great job at remaining stable on the head during light activity such as climbing stairs, performing powerlifting workouts, and commuting to work.
Granted, these headphones were not the best when it came to performance during sprints and other HIIT workouts, but that's not what they're designed for.
FEATURES
There were two main features about these headphones that we really liked for gym and outdoor workout loving athletes.
1. Apple W1 Chip - Seamless and automatic connection to every Apple product on your cloud.
2. Fast Charge Feature - 5-10 minutes of charge time provides about 2-4 hours of playback.
To conclude, these were pretty good on-ear wireless headphones and would receive a B+ rating from me. They were incredibly secure, the sound quality was all-around pretty great, and they have a couple unique features!

Had them for 2 years and i usually wear them for 7 hours and my ears never hurt.
King B so if you had them for two years did did you have any problems with them? did you have to fix them did you have one earcup not working or anything because I'm getting some soon and I don't know if I am because of the bad reviews on them not lasting over a little period of time
Itz Tiem when I first got my beats I had a pair for a while but then one ear cup stopped working so we called up the beats store and they sent me a new pair of beats for free and I’ve had these ones for around 2 years and I’ve had no problems yet except for my first pair
yeah me too. at the begining, it took some time to adjust but after that it rarely needs to be adjusted. also coz I am a audiophile I use them around 10-12 hours a day and the battery lasts around 2-3 days and takes only 2-3 hours to charge
ears of steel
Lol I cant even wear them for an hour
If you’re a college student you can actually get these for free when you buy an iPad or a MacBook that’s how I got it when getting my MacBook Air
Pro tip! - Jake
Yes I am going to get them tomorrow. Can I get beats with the 300$ iPad or does it have to be the iPad Air or pro?
@@angelgjr1999 sadly it has to be iPad Air or iPad Pro :/
Yasmin Yes I got them. They are good for podcast and Netflix. But not super great for music. Worth it tho.
its a rip off, they increase the prices of the products so you are buying the apple product and the beats
I'm wearing my solo3 rn watching this lol

I love how informative you are!
Thank you for this I was looking into how good they are bc I won them from my friend who sent to me and this video really gave me some good I formation about them thanks
Helped me decide on getting my own. Thank you!
Simply the beat headphones I’ve ever came across. Had mines for 2 years and they haven’t failed me
Everything he said was true and on point
Thank you very much for reviewing these headphones on your channel, I just bought these for myself and had no idea how they worked, now I can make them work very easily by watching this video
L
Great video man! This review was excellent and your presentation was amazing. Keep it up!
I got these for my birthday, and I gotta say that these are incredible to get as a free gift.
I totally agree😂😂. Who wanna gift me them?😂
Really found this helpful and I bought a pair on Black Friday for $130 and love them
Great content bro. Really clear and straight to the point. Definitely helped me come to a conclusion on whether i should get them or not
Did you buy it
As an owner of these they are definitely very good, but the sound leak is annoying. I have my music at less than 50% volume (30% even) and it feels as if the sound is blaring loudly, so i have to make the volume very low and of course, thats very annoying to do if you’re one to have music somewhat loud. Solid 7/10.
These are $130 at target during black friday
That should be their default price anyways the production teardown reviled it cost around $70 to make and that's after you factor in extra cost
@@SuperZombiepimp they are around $200 right now
Cayce Chandler where???
Sick
They’re $130 everywhere now tbh
Still loving my Beats solo 3 in matte gold. I love the rose gold-ish color. 💗💗
My uncle gave this to me as a gift i never new they were very expensive but dam this is very comfortable for me
Nice review. you answered a lot of my questions
I am finally retiring my beats solos.. I have had them for 5 years. Still work great, they were just starting to look worn but I LOVE THEMMMMMMM. can’t workout without them!!
Buy new pads !! Good as new
This was a very helpful video bro. Keep up the good work
I really liked how you explained the sound leak problem you made my day man😂
Awesome review. Great explanation. Thanks brother. Cant wait to use them 👍👍👍👍🎧🎧🎧🎧
Good review, thanks
Awesome video! I just got the Beats Studio3 headphones and I agree that they can be uncomfortable if worn for extended periods of time. Overall, I still love the performance and battery life. Great job highlighting all the pros and cons 🔥🤙🏻
Thank you, man! And thank you for sharing your personal experience. - Jake
Did you get the USB cable to connect them to your laptop without bluetooth?
@@MrDextrator Yes
@@Barbend I just bought club room edition yesterday and I didn't get the usb, should I call the customer service because on the website it doesn't say it should come with me?
Midwest Man yo he’s talking bout the solos 3s not the studios 3s *no hate*
Nice review. Thank you!
Hey thanks for this video it was really helpful but I have one question are they good for running?
This is a great informative video honestly
Just scored on Amazon Prime day, 10/10/23 for $99. Your video was short, too the point and well done, thanks!!!
Got mine a few days ago and love them. The way they just connect so easily.
If you workout how good are they at minimizing sweat/stink
@@AdrianHernandez-cf9qpwear a beenie help with the sweat other then that their hood to workout with despite no recommended
Really great video. Thank you!
Good video , very helpful my guy thanks 🤙🏻
this was extremely helpful!! thanks!
I own, AirPods and always you them everyday in the gym and everywhere. But needs This for when i travel.
Filipsson don’t. he really means when he says they get uncomfortable after long periods. I have them and they hurt your ear because they are very tight
Same i just got these as a gift but i still will get airpods because they're extremely portable
Same bro
I personally love listening songs with high volume , I also use it while I am watching lectures . It’s super nice and has nice beats .
Cool review! I was just wondering if they work ok with laptops and PCs other than macs such as windows 10 ones?
I mow during the summer so I look for a loud/noise canceling headphones and in all honesty the soundcore headphone for $80 is just as good almost in my opinion. They’re not as quiet but sometimes I can listen to the four or five hours at a time and they never hurt my ears unlike beats. They’re not quiet as loud as beats but for $80 you can’t beat ot
Not a fan of these but love that you cover how they preform at the gym and i love that - keep it up.
Thanks, Jaso! The Beats are definitely a hit or miss with consumers, so I feel that. - Jake
Thoughtful review - just purchased a pair on sale
I got lucky and got a pair of this for $60 at a pawnshop. Like new condition, work beautifully and I tested them with audio tests and I must say that they are quite a versatile audio range especially in the lows and mids.
Nicccceeee! - Jake
I really want some as a treat to myself after a tough year but I have to move house soon so there goes my money :( maybe next year, or Boxing Day sales. Thank you for the review!
$100 at target rn
Way to sneak in some video of impressive deadlifts. Thanks for the review
I’ve had a pair of these for 5 years. I still use it for running and for my MacBook. They do tend to hurt my ear after an hour of wearing them. But the Bluetooth is awesome I connect to my Garmin 245 watch and MacBook with no problem switching between them! When I am listening to music I can barely hear my surrounds around me.
Thinking of getting these for the gyms and also runs. So you recommend them ? Currently been using my air pods pro
@@lincoln6981The comments sound like bots.
Great review ! Very helpful ! Thanks ! I got two pairs for me and my nephew from Target on Black Friday! Hahaha 😊
Great review!
Great Review!
Great overview and review. Was thinking about these since they are on sale for a much better $110 on Prime day (July 11-12 '23 only). Your review helped me make my decision; to not buy. You covered everything well! All day comfort is a priority to me.
I had these for a year and they still hitting
2:52 thats me enjoying the music :D
Obviously when I first got these headphones I adjusted them and I thought they weren't gonna sound bass but nope no it was opposite, they were really bass, the bass is deep and immersive to reminisce while your listening to music.
Thanks a lot for ur review. Now m going to buy 1. which cost 169chf in swiss
Great review :)
My wife and I just picked them up for $144 each and they are great! It was a 2 for 1 in price. Glad we waited and not pay $300 each.
Really great review, just bought them for €199 (I’m from Italy). Good job! 💯💪
Mine literally just came in but I can’t get them since there in my mail box and I don’t have the key . They were actually at a good price , only 129.99$ .
This is a great video I bought it and are getting it soon. Luckily I found a pair for $100. Thanks for the info
Awesome video!
awesome review
Just bought 2 sets of them on Amazon last week for $90 each. They sound amazing and for $90 even if i get a year outa them im happy. I only use them for airplane travel so for me thats ok. Just need something to listen to music too and watch a movie..
Got these brand new in an amazon sale for about 120 quid, great value.
I just bought mine for $130, and I love them so much
i can usually go a good amount of time without it getting uncomfortable
Very good review.
Hi, does it support auto switching from say my MacBook to iPhone & vice versa for use?
Thanks dude 👌🏼
I’m planning to buy these , I have air pods but I don’t know if I should use these because the gym is very noisy , the air pods do justice but not enough I want something that can exclude external noises
I'm on my 2nd pair as first pair started coming apart on the head band after 5 months. Only used them for gym.
Whomever is reading this remember to spread as much LOVE AS POSSIBLE, don't litter, help out the homeless and take care of nature please it's really important we gotta take care of eachother and mother earth. thank you and have a blessed life ❤
Lol, a youtube comment section on a video about beats is so out of place for this comment
I love these headphones. They're like the beats ep, (awesome headphones, I love) but they're wireless! Super cool.
I just bought this for $60 in 2022. Are these still good headphones? They’re great considering 2-3 years ago they were $200-$300!
I’m aunt got me them for helping her babysit this summer I love them
Good review. Definitely want some just can't decide between beats solo3 and beats studio3 . android user ...
They're both solid. Over-ear, go Studio3, but you can definitely find better deals on the Solo3s right now! - Jake
I need a cheap pair of Bluetooth headphones for the gym. Will this do the job? I also jog religiously so they gotta stay on during a lot of motion and ideally last for at least 2 years. They don’t have to be super fancy just work. Thanks.
Getting these for back to school
Apple special? The best. - Jake
me too😍
I just got them today and I love them
I'm getting mine in 2 weeks for school
I AM TOOO IM GETTING THEM ON MY BIRTHDAY THAT IS VERY VERY SOON!!!! IM SO EXCITEDDDD!!!
I love my beats. My main problem is one side of the headphones are a little quieter and some sound from the outside leaks through it like I can hear other stuff through that ear. Idk how to fix that
super cool vid bro
Senheiser Momentum 2.0 Ivory vs Beats Solo 3. Which one sounds better?
Does it have better bass or sound than the beats studio 3 Bc I was thing about both and which one to buy
These just came in today my god these are amazing🙌 paid ~170$
What is a way to see all the devices beats have been paired to?
Love Your Videos! You Convinced me to get them, well you and they were only $140
Thank you - that's a solid deal! Let me know how you like them. - Jake
Lmao you all copied myne
@@mahirmahmood7257 Haha, you said pounds, bro! - Jake
Fair enough but Im in the uk
@@mahirmahmood7257 I know, I'm playing. The pin was random though, apologies if you commented first! - Jake
awesome great job keep it up
What is the difference between beats solo wireless and beats solo bluetooth? Are they not the same thing?
where is your location？what is the bridge？iron bridge seems pretty
Due to get some this weekend for my birthday, I got the solo hd when they first came out back in 09’ I believe? It’ll be interesting to see how they’ve improved now Dre has sold the brand over to Apple. 👍🏻
Get a pair of Pioneer headphones instead. Way better.
y’all love it? looking to get it for the gym. currently using Airpod Pro’s but looking for a sound upgrade.
Are these beats goods with bass and the highs and lows?
I have a question: can it connect to a dell laptop?
I love these. I don’t use them to workout. The battery life if everything with these.
Thanks from Chicago
on amazon the the gloss black is 120 i think i’m gonna get them this weekend
liked your review. I just want to ask. I have an iphone 6s and an android phone. now when I use the headphones on the android phone the seem to be louder than on the iphone. is this because the iphone is old or something??
Great question - To be quite honest, I'm not entirely sure. That logic checks out though. I'm sorry I don't know enough tech to accurately answer this one. - Jake
Is it possible to turn off the On/Off notification sound?
My sister got my daughter some and she loves them
Hey can you use these with Bluetooth and the audio cable at the same time? for example can you connect them to your phone via Bluetooth and to your PS4 via audio cable
@Harshan Singh No you can not if you connected with bluetooth and then put the cable in it goes off
Barbell brigade 💪 FeelsAmazingMan
any cushion protectors for sweat since I use them for the gym
Excellent review. The solo 3 I bought today doesnt come with the cord for a phone jack, you can just talk wirelessly when you have the headphones on.
Have you tried to plug leads into the headphone jack, and found that they do not fit
Can you replace the earbuds to fit your ears better
I just got some today $99 on Prime day!
They are 129$ in target for black friday
I'm meme lol I got myself a pair for 150
@@cnar8514 nice i got mone for 129 at target
I'm meme lol also got mines for $129
Wife works at target also got a store discount also 🎄 🎁 😁
These are just cheap in an official brand in my country. The price is around 130 too.
Hi quick question, are the headphones good for keeping out noise and gym music?
Yeah, they're pretty decent, but definitely not the best on the market. You'll still have some background noise with these if the volume isn't loud enough. - Jake
Yes at higher volumes
