Beats’ Studio series has been around for years—their over-the-ear design, ANC, and more premium build and features set them apart from other Beats earphones. The Beats Studio3 are not the newest model (they came out in 2017) but they are still plenty good headphones in 2025, especially at their current price of $89 (originally $349.99).
I’ve had these headphones for a couple of years and I love them. The fit is snug, so you can wear them at the gym without worrying that they’ll slip off. They have active noise cancellation that you can turn on and off from the Beats companion app. They’re not going to be as good as the ANC you can find from the best headphones that came out this year, but for $89, they’re great. Like all Beats headphones, you’re going to get a rich, crisp sound signature with a focus on high-mid definition, according to PCMag’s review. Of course, you can adjust the playback in the EQ settings, too.
You get about 22 hours of audio playback with ANC on and 40 hours with it off, but you also have an AUX port (included in the box) in case you want to listen to music without Bluetooth and not depend on the battery. The Apple W1 chip means iOS users can connect to the headphones seamlessly. Keep in mind that since these are older headphones, they use a microUSB connection to charge, but a cord is included.
