Cheap earbuds don't always come with the top-tier features, which is why it's a smart move to keep an eye out for deals on higher-end models. Right now, for example, Amazon has slashed the price of the Beats Studio Buds Plus by 41%, though the retailer says the deal will only last a little bit longer.
The Beats Studio Buds Plus offered some key improvements upon previous generations, namely including better compatibility with Android devices, and an upgraded active noise cancellation profile. They also sport a long-lasting battery, high-quality calling, and an overall comfortable fit.
They also come at a cheaper normal price point than many premium-level earbuds, while still boasting a pretty powerful audio profile.
This particular deal is available for the buds in all three of the device's available color combos: Black and Gold, Ivory, and my personal favorite, Transparent.
✅Recommended if: you're looking for a powerful set of earbuds with high-quality audio, high-resolution listening, and a long-lasting battery, but you'd prefer to keep the budget around $100; you want a pair of earbuds that is comfortable and will effectively help mute your surroundings; you need a pair of earbuds with reliable, user-friendly button controls for playback and volume.
❌Skip this deal if: you'd rather upgrade to some of the best wireless earbuds on the market, and you have the budget to do so without scoring a big deal; you need earbuds with their own built-in EQ capabilities, rather than just using those on your device; you're looking for earbuds with wireless charging.
The Beats Studio Buds Plus are well-liked for a number of reasons, but especially for their high-quality audio profile, their powerful ANC mode, their long-lasting battery, and the cool colorway options that offer something unique for everybody.
Beats says these will offer users up to nine hours of battery life without ANC, or up to seven hours with the mode activated. The case offers users up to three charges when fully charged itself, while five-minute charging sessions will yield about an hour of playback.
To be sure, these don't include built-in EQ options, which is a feature that many prefer. However, given that most devices today have their own EQ options, this may not be such a dealbreaker for casual users.
