Great watch and fair review. They are actually decent BUT a lot of their budget competition blows them out of the water. The only reason they are even able to have them at that price bracket is due to the "Beats" brand name. I can definitely see them selling well based on the name but for anybody who does their homework they are going to go with so many other brands that offer better value at that price.
Lol I said the same thing but you beat me to it. I 100% feel like they are relying on the branding and price point to carry them. I can see some parent on a budget possibly buying a pair for their kid when they may not be able to afford airpods. I watch a ton of review vids nowadays. But prior to like 2022, I can't say that I read too many reviews for stuff I bought(atleast headphones and earbuds). There are probably alot more ppl out there that just buy stuff they see on the shelf once they can afford it.
@@dmac5472 Yeah the branding is for sure gonna carry them heavy. Coz yeah some people are nit picky, and will watch several reviews and read several articles before making a purchase but some people are just cool with buying whatever they recognize on the shelf on the day. Seems such a weird decision from them coz they could have just priced them with similar competition and easily competed in that bracket and tier but i can see it from that money POV where if you have a big brand name you can basically cut costs like crazy and still have your product valued higher than where it should be. Coz anybody who does their homework knows that this is basically a really stripped down pair of buds being sold at a price point that they don't warrant.
Just picked up a pair yesterday. And with the Apple Music EQ set to ‘Hip Hop’, music sounds great with excellent deep bass - not sure why people complain about there being no EQ when Apple Music EQ does the job brilliantly. Very happy with the sound for the price. The button controls are also very easy to use, in contrast to what other reviewers have said. I just pinch the earbud control button with thumb and forefinger. I also love that they will last for years, because the battery is not being constantly degraded by being constantly charged to 100% by a case with an in-built battery. My earbuds with battery case have lost battery capacity very quickly. Meanwhile my Beats Flex, which are not on constant recharge, have lasted ages and will last for years to come. I also have a 3 year old iPhone that still has 95% Maximum Battery Capacity because I only ever charge it to ~80%.
@@nigeljones1969 Nice 👌🏻 If you can get a good seal with the provided tips, you should get the best out of them, with a fuller sound and excellent passive noise isolation. These type of earphones only sound good with a decent seal. Mine seal so well with the largest tips, that I get a vacuum pressure feeling when I remove them. I used this guide to help figure out the kind of Apple Music EQ that I would like (I like ‘Hip Hop’ - Spotify also has a great EQ to play with): www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/apple-music-eq-presets-what-are-they-doing.25588/ Another tip is that if you experience low volume, you can try reconnecting/re-pairing them with your device. I experienced low volume initially, but switching between iPhone to iPad and then back to iPhone again has seemed to fix the issue permanently. Hope you are happy with your new Solo Buds!

@@parasupa the trouble, as the reviewer pointed out, is you could get a pair of TWS ear buds that offer so much more for way less. For example, I recently got a pair of Soundcore R50i NC for less than $30 in my local currency. These buds have noise cancelling, transparency mode, excellent battery life (10hrs with noise cancelling/transparency on, about 7hrs with those off; 45hrs with the case), an app that offers EQ customization and firmware updates when needed, and fantastic call quality. You also get a charging cable and two other silicone tips. To be fair, the ANC and transparency mode aren't the best, but they're quite usable. And again, all under $30!
Glad someone said this, the fact I can choose to charge them was a major factor in buying them after learning about battery lifecycles. I have no complaints.
At least the other brands have a case with a battery. It is just crazy that I have to replay the part u mentioned that the case has NO battery 3 times because I thought I heard wrongly.
Maybe apple is secretly run by Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF) He said “You will own nothing, and you will be happy” Well maybe just the isheep will.
Lol, I actually like my raycons tbh. I get that I could have likely found stuff that rates higher but I can't complain personally. That said I am no audiophile. I got over the ear headphones in a pinch before vacation a couple of yrs ago and got what I thought was a good deal using a code. I got the entry level earbuds after vacation because I liked the headphones. They serve my use cases pretty well. I don't really use EQs and the like so much because the bulk of my music listening is on an ipod touch 4th gen. I listen to some podcasts and watch youtube vids on the phone the earbuds. 2 yrs in and they've held up. I will say that after jumping into the review rabbit hole I am way more informed about products than I was before. Raycon will have to start offering competitive features and a solid app IF they want to be more respected by folks in the tech space. Meaning ppl more in the know than me lol
Great review, Keith. We can count on you not to pull your punches. They've got a lot of balls pricing these at $80.. There are $30 earbuds that put these to shame. It's bad enough that the case doesn't have a battery, but to not even include a USB cable is just insulting.
Props for such an honest review and not even having an affiliate link to purchase such a bad pair of earbuds. Truly speaks that you're trying to give an honest review of the products you come across to your audience first, and that making money off your affiliate links is a secondary gain. Thanks Keith!
@@dmarr4941 Yep. They basically stripped them down so much that they can't even compete with competition at that price point. They are going to be carried by brand loyalty alone basically.
This review was bad and missed the point of these earbuds entirely. These earbuds last can last an entire 10 hour work shift or long travel day without any battery anxiety. If someone wants earbuds with more features the Beats Studio Buds Plus are an option. This was a lazy review overall
I use them for TV watching for my Apple TV. I bought them for battery life. Since it’s used for spoken word, podcasts, RUclips, it does the job for me.
I tried them out; I was tempted by the transparent red color, and I really like that they work with the Apple ecosystem almost as well as AirPods but are still Android-friendly too. I didn't mind the fit of these, and I didn't mind not having a battery in the case (the super small case made them instant favorites to throw in my pocket). But man, the sound quality on these were very hit and miss. Some songs sounded really good (though not as good as AirPods or anything more expensive), but others - most notably instrumental tracks - sounded absolutely horrible. My $30 Jlab Go Air Pop earbuds sound way better (and offer a fully transparent color option).
I appreciate the candor and I understand your points. That said, I feel like Apple/Beats will probably sell these at a decent rate on name brand alone. The average consumer on that "budget tier" will probably give them a shot just on the Beats name and rep. I'm talking about the folks who who dont really watch or read reviews and may just see the 80 buck price(or lower whenever there are sales) and just jump on them. I don't get not putting a battery in the case, especially that seems to be pretty common with even dirt cheap earbuds. But again, they prob figured they could strip away alot of stuff and still turn a profit.
I’m so glad I listened to this review. I’m trying to find the best quality affordable wireless earbuds under 100$ after having raycons for a while and I wanted to try another option….I was interested in these earbuds because I thought it would be a step up because they’re a beats product but I was sadly mistaken…Thank you
I have a lot of earbuds but I don't use wireless charging so the fact that they don't have a battery in the case doesn't bother me. But everything else you brought up does bother me you're spot on with the sound quality it's terrible. Thanks Gamesky much appreciated. 💯👍🇺🇸
Such an Apple move. We'll give you a budget pair of earbuds. We'll just take the battery out of the case, no type c cable, no battery indicator so you have to guess, no transparency or ANC. At least you'll be cool bc it's Apple
Im going on a trip to Hawaii soon, and need some air pods. My main contenders are beats solo buds, Apple Airpods, JBL vibe buds, and space A40. I was wondering if you could give me some feedback based on which one you would recommend. (All around the $100 range except for JBL) If its worth mentioning, my personal preference is the bud shape rather than the beam. Thanks
Thanks for the true review. A lot of people who gave good reviews have probably never listen to great sound. Once you listen to great sound, everything just sounds terrible. It's a $10 max for me.
This thing isn't worth $20-$30, but since it's a 🍏 Beats product, despite its extortionate price, it's going to sell like hot cakes, pff 🤦🏽♂️ 🚶🏽♂️🚶🏽♂️🚶🏽♂️ Ps: Keith, or someone else, can explain to me why no tws manufacturer, apart from Technics, has yet switched to multipoint with 3 connected devices 🙏🏽
I’m going with a unpopular opinion, I actually like them, the lack of features on the case is why they are so light weight plus the case size is very pocket friendly compared with others, battery life is excellent. I think they are harsh reviews are only because people don’t understand their market
I have those and they have decent noise canceling, a really good battery in the case, and really good sound, and include a charging cable. I haven’t tried the Beats Solo buds and I know for a fact the air pro 3’s blow them out of the water in every way
I just bought a pair today and I’m not impressed with them, for a start the obvious no charger lead and no battery in the case, don’t sound that great but to top it off I paid £80 which is $102.43 at the moment
tbh honest im a little bit skeptical why there is no battery in the case but after using it about a week im quite satisfied with those earbuds & i only charged the earbuds around 2 times maybe this earbuds will last longer because of not constantly charges the earbuds when not in used...
I bought a pair to use with my Apple TV 4 K exclusively so I will not disturb anyone late at night. Apple gives you two weeks to try so I can return I’ve I’m not happy with them.
I support less batteries... If you pay less. I think Skullcandy has some for like $30 Not including a cable is nice. Basically everyone has a USB c cable for some gadget or another
Just when I thought Apple wasn't going to make wasteful products, here we go. Why not discount the Studio Buds until a newer Buds Pro comes out? Great review despite the bare bones approach by Apple.
The fact that these things don't have a battery in the case is just... Why? There are $20 true wireless airpod knockoffs that have batteries in their cases... What is the excuse? Even early true wireless earbuds made in 2015-2016 had batteries in their cases, there were a few that didn't and that might have been okay back then... But here? In 2024? Is it because Apple has everything so incredibly overpriced that the moment they have something under $100 that they NEED to handicap it in the most ridiculous way just to make sure that their more expensive stuff sells better? Or are they so insanely oblivious when it comes to budgeting that their first idea to get a set of Beats earbuds under $100 was to take out the battery in the case and just thought, "Eh, the customers will figure it out"
100% Apple doing Apple things...you want "luxuries" like a case that actually has a battery in it and even a fancy cable, you'll have to buy our flagship products!
oh... I guess it being budget friendly is fine. I think it just doesn't compete with those at 80$. Soundcore has a better earbud with the sport x20 and they don't have a way to outperform other products at a similar price.
Great review, sad beats went this route. While I wasnt considering these as i have the og studio buds i was trying to decide potentially upgrading to either the buds+ or fit (still trying to decide which one). Everything ive heard this is not it.
Good afternoon, Game Sky. Please can you help me decide if I should get the MW4 or get the Jabra Elite 10 again, which, unfortunately, for me, got damaged, particularly the charging case cover. I don't know if Generation 2 of Elite 10 is worth purchasing. If anyone has any opinions and suggestions, please let me know. Thank you.
Stay away from Beats. I got the flex and Solo as a gift. I heard the quality of the original Beats headphone sucked. I guess it applies to these too. My $15 and $20 wireless earbuds from Banggood and Temu have way better sound quality. The only thing they are better at is the longevity of the battery. Yes, the cable for charging is ridiculously short. The base sucks and the volume level is low. Not sure how long they will last but it sucks just for the sound alone.
When I first saw them I took a 10 minutes sigh 😕 and then I decided that even if they gave them to me for free I will glady reject them.I dokt need them for anything on this planet.
hahahahahahaha, that's what I thought, this is seriously a joke, no battery, not a good sound, enough any other competitor will give you much more for 80 dollars.
I am an Apple Fan Boi...I have a pair of AirPods Pro....love 'em. I got a pair of the Beats Solo as a second "knock-around" set to chuck in the travel bag, car, etc. WORST WORST earbuds I have ever owned. Returned them on the same day. Poor Volume...Poor Fit...Poor Sound Quality...garbage buds !!!
Nah these look trash, the box looks cheap, the case looks cheap, the actual buds look cheap. Way too overpriced when you get get decent ones for half the price on amazon. Also 18 hours battery life whilst my AirPods Pro have less than 1/3
That’s actually incredible, they NEED a cable to recharge and they don’t provide one
Even if we have tons of usb c cables thats still wild.
It's "to save the environment"
Wait the case doesn’t have a battery? 😂 Even 5 below earbuds have battery in the case
the buds hold 18 hours, you get use to it over time
@@nothinguntouchedpodcast As an Apple fan, the fact that you have to "get used to it over time" is really bad.
It sounds way overpriced for what it is. For $20, I might buy them.
I was thinking $20, too.
I dunno I feel like even for $20 you could get a pair that comes with a cable and a battery in the case, and probably sounds as good
Moon drop space travel are miles ahead and around 20$

No battery on a TWS case is absolutely nuts!
tbh honest im a little bit skeptical why there is no battery in the case but after using it about a week im quite satisfied with those earbuds & i only charged the earbuds around 2 times
maybe this earbuds will last longer because of not constantly charges the earbuds when not in used...
It could’ve provided 5hr battery per earbud charge and total 15/20 hr battery including the case.
That would’ve been enough
Funny how everything these expensive budget earbuds lack in is something the 30 dollar (sometimes 23 dollars) tozo T6 Upgraded earbuds do well.
I bought a pair to use with my Apple TV 4 K exclusively so I will not disturb anyone late at night. Apple gives you two weeks to try so I can return I’ve I’m not happy with them.

When I first saw them I took a 10 minutes sigh 😕 and then I decided that even if they gave them to me for free I will glady reject them.I dokt need them for anything on this planet.
Not having a battery in the case, and not providing a charging cable is an absolute joke. No one at all should be interested in these.
These might be the worst beats wireless earbuds ever made when u can get the beats studio buds plus for about 20 dollars they go on sale all the time
Yeah these seem great… at $50ish. The price kills it.
$50? No, we got the soundpeats opera 3 at that price
These are perfect for $30
@@petermurage8685 you are right but I was factoring a little bit of Apple tax. At this current price the Apple tax is absurd for what you get.
Luckily I got myself some baseus m10 s, thát's worth the money.
50usd for logo and rest for product
Is it insane to not have a battery if they last 18 hours ? They last so long im fine with that .
beats really need to stop with these designs theres too many similar. Please just make the powerbeats pro 2...
Too many compromises with these buds
Tozo nc7 if you want a budget pair.
What i can buy? On a budget
lebron james design that earbuds 😅
But they Said Looks Tiny Sounds Huge. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Huge pile of...
hahahahahahaha, that's what I thought, this is seriously a joke, no battery, not a good sound, enough any other competitor will give you much more for 80 dollars.
Powerful
what the thought process for these? exploit the fan boys/girls
I am an Apple Fan Boi...I have a pair of AirPods Pro....love 'em. I got a pair of the Beats Solo as a second "knock-around" set to chuck in the travel bag, car, etc. WORST WORST earbuds I have ever owned. Returned them on the same day. Poor Volume...Poor Fit...Poor Sound Quality...garbage buds !!!
Roasted! 🚒💦🔥🔥🔥
Wow apple and Beads made a stinker😂
Well said 😊
But you drool over Skullcandy?
@@SlobberKnockerSF actually no
Are that they didn't send you the demo items? 😂😂😂
Nah these look trash, the box looks cheap, the case looks cheap, the actual buds look cheap. Way too overpriced when you get get decent ones for half the price on amazon. Also 18 hours battery life whilst my AirPods Pro have less than 1/3
Basically, they’re overpriced Beats Flex without wires.
Compare this with soundcore r50i nc 😂
Fully agree 🤷
I will take your review as a big fat NO!, Gamesky ( Keith) Thank you very much!
My $20 Soundpeats Clear is 10 times better than this...
Holy crap. Yeah...that is some garbage.
😂😂
