Superb set of headphones!
By Chris on Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2015
These are fantastic headphones!!! I've owned all types of headphones, including on-ear, over the ear, and ear buds. Nothing has come close to these in terms of overall sound quality and bass punch. I was very skeptical of these at first because I had owned the Bose on-ear headphones for so long, and absolutely loved the way they sounded. I am a bass head, and I love hearing it really punch. The Bose gave me that, even without any amplification. The problem with the Bose is that they weren't wireless. I work down in my home shop now, and I need to have wireless headphones. The Beats are a little on the expensive side, but I took the gamble, and it sure paid off. At first, they are a little tight on the ears, and they were a bit uncomfortable to wear. This didn't last very long, though. I quickly got used to them, and now they feel very comfortable, even after a couple hours of constant use. My other issue is that the Bose headphones sounded so good, and the bass was just what I was looking for in a set of headphones. I was really nervous about the Beats, but after trying them for a few minutes, I was convinced that these were just what I had been searching for. These things can really pack a punch, and you can even feel the bass on your ears at higher volumes. The great thing is, at higher volumes, the bass isn't overdone. It just punches harder with hardly any distortion at all. At max volume, these things just scream! The batteries actually last quite awhile, even at higher volumes. I was worried that I would have to recharge these things every couple of hours, but that just wasn't the case. I can easily listen to these for 4-5 hours at high volume without having to recharge them. At lower volumes I get even more use out of them. I haven't read their claims for battery life, but it's certainly good enough for my usage. The bottom line is, I couldn't be more pleased with these things. I had heard that the Beats were way too heavy on bass, and that the sound quality suffered for it. This couldn't be further from the truth with these, in my experience. Sound is very subjective, but if you're a bass head like me, and you also enjoy all types of sound, give these a shot. I am so glad I invested in these.

The functionality was perfect for the way I use them
By J. Pope on Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2016
I purchased the Solo2 wireless based on owning the wired Studio version over the past few years. The Solo2 wireless worked well enough for the first month and a half that I owned them. The functionality was perfect for the way I use them, which is exclusively at the gym. The sound is also very good for my tastes -- mostly music with bass. So, one star for these as they stopped working altogether. They will not charge when plugged in. I tried to reset them and upload the latest firmware, but the headphones will not function properly. I contacted Apple for an appointment and headed to the Apple store. My headphones are on their way for a repair now, which hopefully works out. If not, they will replace them. Bottom line: I can't recommend these since my pair stopped working for no apparent reason. If you are brave enough to try these, get the extended warranty. I'm glad I purchased the 2 year plan here at Amazon, as it looks like I'm in for many service calls on these headphones.
