Beats Studio Pro review

I haven't worn these. I'm working from Beats' product page and Dexerto's review from August 21, 2023, the one published test I could read in full. The 6.5 is my opinion of the two.

The money first. The Studio Pro is $299.99Not verifiedNot verified on Beats' US store (November 1, 2026), with no sale price showing. Beats' page names the Studio3 Wireless as the earlier model.

The battery claim mostly holds

Beats says up to 24 hours with noise cancelling or Transparency on, and up to 40 hours with both off. Dexerto ran them at varying volume and got about 38 hours with ANC off. With ANC on, right around 20.

So ANC off lands 2 hours short, about 5%. I wouldn't argue with that. ANC on is 4 hours short, closer to 17%, and that's the mode people buy noise-cancelling headphones for. Dexerto still called the advertised battery life spot on. I'd call it a little generous.

Twenty hours is a week of commuting for most people. It just isn't 24. And the test is from 2023.

What the spec sheet leaves out

This part annoys me. Beats' page doesn't say which Bluetooth codecs the Studio Pro supports. It doesn't mention multipoint either. The only device-switching feature it names is Audio Switch.

Want to stay connected to a laptop and a phone at once? Nothing on that page says these will do it. Ask before you buy, or keep the receipt.

What the page does list: a custom 40 mm driver, fully adaptive ANC, Class 1 Bluetooth and 260 g. All Beats' claims. With no published test of the sound or the noise cancelling in front of me, I won't rate either.

Would I buy it

Not at this price ($299.99Not verifiedNot verified). The battery is the one thing a named outlet has measured, and it comes in close to the claim with ANC off and a bit under with ANC on.

The rest of what you'd pay for, the sound and the noise cancelling, rests on Beats' own description. At this price I want a current sound and ANC test before I spend my own money.

If battery is all you care about, Dexerto's 38 hours is a solid number. That's the strongest case I can make for these.
