  • Dual input/output audio ports
  • Comfy ear cups that can also be easily wiped clean
  • The Beats Pro are still garish in terms of design
  • One that screams
  • "Look at me
  • " but there's no denying their build quality which appears very solid and built for the long haul
  • The Beats Pro's ear cups are well padded and comfortable and able to be removed and even washed to ensure they remain so fresh and so clean

  • Attractive and sturdy styling
  • Good noise blockage
  • Dual jacks for music sharing or switching cable sides

The editors didn't like

  • Incredibly high price point
  • And coloration of sound makes it not ideal for producers/editors/on location video shooting
  • Could be too heavy to wear for some
  • Flipup ear cups are a nice touch but don’t work to well in practical use
  • Carrying case is a bit disappointing.
  • The Beats Pro headphones are not as travel friendly as earlier designs
  • Thanks to their more robust padding and construction
  • Though I'd take their improved build quality over portability any day
  • The Beats Pro headphones are heavy
  • Really heavy and while comfortable they're not easily forgotten
  • Making extended listening sessions a bit fatiguing
  • The Beats Pro headphones can be powered by po
  • Heavy
  • Headband a bit tight
  • No inline remote
  • Expensive. Not comfortable when worn for long periods of time.
  • Expensive for casual listeners
  • Lack of internal amp may affect some output
  • No mic or remote.
  • Price
  • Emphasis on bass isn't ideal for everyday use
  • Padding is better than the plastic on something like the Solo3
  • But still uncomfortable
  • May not be comfortable for everyone
  • Weight is a little on the heavy side
  • Some songs can sound harsh
  • Travel case doesn't match up to the professional packaging of its predecessors
  • Hefty
  • Sometimes distracting bass response

  • Abstract:  The Beats Pro by Dr. Dre. at $399.95 (direct) is a serious pair of headphones designed for the modern DJ. The ear cups flip backwards to free one ear, the cable is detachable, and jacks on both ear cups act not only as inputs, but as outputs to send ...

  • Abstract:  Over the past several years, Monster has successfully moved beyond its beachhead in cables and accessories to build not one but two wide and popular lines of headphones—one line under the Monster name and the other under the new Beats by Dr. Dre bran...

  • Quality construction; dual input/output audio ports for communal listening; thumping bass; ear cushions can be removed and replaced
  • May not be comfortable for everyone, weight is a little on the heavy side, some songs can sound harsh, travel case doesn't match up to the professional packaging of its predecessors
  • The Beats Pro by Dr. Dre from Monster Headphones deliver a sturdy design and top-notch sound quality for those who enjoy skull-shattering bass. If you're a casual listener and can afford them, they're a worthy investment, but if you're an audio purist...

  • Good design, Sound less outofwhack than the other Beats by Dr. Dre models
  • Too heavy to be comfortable, Flabby sound
  • The Pro is poorly isolated with a flabby sound, but Beats by Dre is making progress when it comes to frequency response. Nonetheless, these headphones are far from the best of their kind....

  • Comfortable, choice of cable positioning (L/R), plenty of bass, generally good audio quality, foldable design
  • Very expensive, a little too heavy, audio quality not the very best at louder volumes, incorrect positioning will make audio sound off
  • The Beats Pro by Dr, Dre aren’t just for bass-heads. They deal with the low-frequency stuff well, but there’s scope for all kinds of music without unnecessary bass-pushing. The biggest problem: the weight, and weightier price tag. These are pricey over...

  • Astonishing bass for a set of headphones, an exciting, tight listen
  • That bass excellence means transparency suffers a little

  • Good build quality, good accessories, decent sound quality
  • Too expensive, heavy, uncomfortable and they say Dr. Dre across the top of the headband
  • We do agree with Dre that people aren’t hearing music properly, but purchasing these cans for over £300 is not going to put you in more in the right. Sure they look cool and kick out a pretty decent racket, but for £300 you could get a lot more – or, ...
