Sound Quality | Powerful, Balanced Sound Beats’ custom acoustic platform delivers rich, immersive sound whether you’re listening to music or taking calls. Each bud is equipped with a custom two-layer transducer that flexes to deliver cleaner bass and ultralow distortion. Three acoustic vents improve audio precision and gently relieve pressure for a more comfortable all-day fit.

Transparency Mode Transparency mode blends your listening experience with the world around you. External-facing microphones capture ambient sound to mix in with your music when you need to be aware of your surroundings.
Spatial Audio | Surrounds You in Sound Beats Studio Buds + support spatial audio for immersive music — delivering a surround sound experience — that you can take anywhere. ³ It’s like being surrounded by 64 speakers at once.
Fit | All-Day Comfort With four ear tip options (XS, S, M & L) to fit a wider range of ears, Beats Studio Buds + create a comfortable acoustic seal for the best listening experience, securing your earbuds in place.
Battery Life | More Music, Less Charging With up to 36 hours of total battery life⁴ from the sleek, pocket-sized charging case, Beats Studio Buds + are ready to go whenever you are.
Call Quality | Crystal Clear Calls 3x larger microphones⁵, powerful ANC, and a voice-targeting algorithm precisely filter background noise for crisp, clear call performance.

Guests are saying
The earbuds offer a stylish design and good sound quality for music, but they face significant issues with connectivity and call quality. Many guests report problems with the earbuds disconnecting, poor microphone performance during calls, and discomfort with the fit. While some appreciate the noise cancellation and aesthetics, the overall experience is marred by frequent technical issues, making them less reliable for phone use.

Would not recommend these… at first they were great. I even thought the noise cancellation was better than AirPods, but maybe 3 weeks after purchasing they went downhill. Only one bud would work at a time, one bud charges and the other one doesn’t, and the size is monstrous. These must have been designed for giants. I have the smallest bud attachment on that they come with, and now my right ear has had problems nonstop. Never have I had to stretch my ears after wearing buds, except for these. Can’t believe I ever spent a dollar on these. Just get AirPods.
Love them

Use them for work doing lawncare and the noise canceling works amazing yet not blowing out your ears with music. Perfect balance in volume and canceling the mower or any other loud thing.

What a disappointment my items were in stock I even went in person earlier that day before deciding to actually purchase my items to receive a notification that my order is READY for pickup after WAITING almost 30 minutes for the employees to tell me that my items were cancelled by management ! How were my items ready to pick up for you guys to just cancel it WASTE OF MY TIME , RIDICULOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE ! Keep that in mind if you ever order from this location! You might go back home empty handed !

Can’t use them for fitness purposes, can barely move your head without falling out. Good sound quality though for the short amount of time they are in your ear. I just wanna throw them as far as I can. Don’t buy them.

Yessi - 3 months ago, Verified purchaser
Bought these in July 2024 now having issues with an earbud- still under manufactured warranty but went to Apple and they’re stating otherwise. They go by when Target purchased them and not the customer . Totally unacceptable and Target says they can’t do anything since it’s passed the return window.

The product is defective but you're not able to return after 15 days at target. The earbuds disconnect constantly and there is a ringing sound in the earbud when using noise cancellation. Don't recommend this product/purchasing any of the Apple products through Target as you won't have good customer support

I have had the worst customer service from Target. Not only was the order late, it was not fully fufilled. Then they don't want to do a return on the late items. The customer services agents just lie and push you off. Don't buy at target.

BoS Love - 4 months ago
I just brought these and they are sooo horrible not even loud and bass sounds like it'll rip the earbuds apart as I use power amp app for music on my android S22 ultra and not my iPhone 16 plus which sounded even worse!!! Quick as I got is quick as I returned them immediately in the store before leaving/walking out!!! And brought myself some pure bass jbl's and man well worth the money exactly what I was looking for and happy with purchase! So people reading this trust don't buy unless you spend $200 plus on better versions and still I wouldn't trust the quality at all after buying these Dre beats!
Sound great. Noise canceling not so much

While they sound awesome the active noise canceling is less than to be desired. It could possibly be due to the fact that I'm using them on an android device and not an apple product. I've no idea.
