Features

Both headphones have a battery level indicator and battery-free listening mode as well. If you buy the first headphones, then you can listen to music or podcasts for 22 hours. But those who buy the second ones can enjoy favorite melodies about 40 hours. To add, Beats Studio3 are super easy to pair on iOS devices and charge incredibly fast.

Sound

I would like to mark that the sound of Beats Studio3 is well-balanced, the bass is boosted here. The sound of Beats Solo3 is quite clear and rather neutral, noise-canceling works even when music is not playing. The device has bass performance in terms of audio quality. There is bonus bass here, however, for the most part, it is centered around fairly low frequencies.

Comfort and design

The Beats Studio3 headphones has weight 257 g, which makes them a bit heavier compared to Beats Solo3, which weight is 215g. They both are foldable and have an adjustable headband. These headphones also have a built-in microphone and the same length of audio cable which is 130/4.2 cm/ft.

Beats Studio3 seem really solid as they have matte finishes, metal accents, and plush earcups. You can wear this device while you are wearing glasses and feel comfortable even in 8 hours. To use Beats Studio3 is comfortable as it is easy to find the buttons for volume control there.
