Pricey
Expensive
Doesn't sound quite as good as the Bose SoundLink On-Ear Bluetooth
Which costs $50 less
Big bass sound isn't for purists or anyone seeking flat response. Slightly overpriced
Just like the Solo 2 wired headphones, these have pretty good sound; Compact and foldable; Fairly comfortable to wear; Charges over microUSB; Light-up meter telling you how much battery life you have left; Works without needing to be powered provided you
Very expensive for what they are; No noise cancelling; Beats button requires you to press is not all that fast if you're doing it in succession for skipping tracks;
Beats may not have ears for every form of music, but given the music we tested with, it's not far off, with strength in the mids and lows.This attention results in a meaty type of sound on offer for the fans of pop, rock, R&B, and hip-hop, with lovers of...

Beats Solo2 is an elegant and nice looking headphone. Its stylish look is complemented by sound clarity and awesome soundstage. The bass is not too overwhelming, which allows you to enjoy listening to the vocal and other instruments in a song as well. Fo...
