By making every other part of the package feel exceptional enough, the familiar problems that plague the Solo Pro become the sort of inconveniences that you're willing to live with rather than outright deal breakers...
Abstract: They say you should travel to the beat of your own drum, and that's spot on – so when I get a pair of Beats headphones to review I always have an expectation of the sound style. The new Beats Solo Pro are different.First off, They're a collaboration wit...
Great, clear sound, Noise cancellation is adaptive, Ambient transparency mode is one of the most realistic around, Folds up for easy storage, Feels more durable than previous models, Controls now work on iOS and Android (the latter has an app!)
Tight fit, Lightning port (no Type C), Wired cable is now optional, and won't go straight into an iPhone
While there is at least one or two questionable choices with the Beats Solo Pro, these headphones are a delightful turnaround for a company that once touted sound the way the artist intended, and delivered a result far from it.Now in 2019, Beats is hittin...
Surprisingly good sound quality, Great material design, Fast pairing

If you've been after a set of on-ear headphones that deliver all the modern perks you'd usually find in a set of over-ear noise cans, you'll probably love the Beats Solo Pro. And I'm happy for you. Honestly. But the thing that sticks with me here is that...

good battery life, good sound, good controls, good noise cancelling, instant pairing with Apple with H1 chip, robust, comfortable for onear headphones, strong Bluetooth
expensive, no headphones cable in the box, need to turn off ANC for best sound, no pause on remove, no support for aptX or better
The Beats Solo Pro are a great set of on-ear noise-cancelling headphones.They sound good, have solid noise cancelling and are comfortable and stable on your head. Bluetooth connectivity is rock-solid and the battery lasts long enough for the weekly commut...

At £269/$300, the Beats Solo Pros aren't cheap. That's a high price for a pair of simple on-ear, walking-around headphones and ventures into “serious listening cans” territory. The Beats Solo 3, with no noise cancelling and no hands-free “Hey Siri” suppor...
Detailed, Engaging sound, Good noise cancelling, Attractive design, Good battery life and fast charging
Snug fit isn't the most comfortable, No way of listening wired out of the box, iPhones get the best experience, ANC not adjustable
There's a lot to love about the Beats Solo Pro, particularly if you're an iPhone owner. They offer a lovely design, good noise cancelling, an energetic, detailed performance and outstanding usability. However, while we know Apple is keen to make wireless...
Lightning port only, Lacks 3.5mm Aux port, Headband pressure too firm
(Image credit: TechRadar)As with their forebears, when it comes to style and design the Beats Solo Pro remain unrivalled in the headphones space. We love the choice of available colors (some of which were handpicked by none other than music superstar Phar...

Full-bodied and clear sound, Excellent noise-cancelling, Premium feel,
Bettered for timing and dynamics, Tight fit,
However, Beats customers tend not to purchase its products on sound quality alone - the design, build and noise cancelling ability of the Solo Pros will be more than enough to tempt many into buying them.The difference is that this time you're getting a...
Superb transparency mode, Good active noise cancellation, Balanced tone, particularly for Beats,
Go over-ear and you get bigger sound, same price, Tight grip may be a turn-off, Fold to turn off? It's not for everyone,
With the Solo Pro, Beats has ditched the bass boost and delivered an accomplished set of headphones. They can't quite match up to the Sony WH-1000XM3, which come in at a similar price, but if you're a fan of Beats headphones then the Solo Pro are worth co...
