Q: Do they work in the sauna? If they do, how long do they last in there? For example: If I enter a sauna at 165 degrees for 25-30 minutes, will they last in there the entire time or do they overheat and power off?
submitted by rema - 1 month ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds
These earbuds are not designed for use in a high-heat environment such as a sauna. Exposure to temperatures around 165°F (74°C) for 25-30 minutes may cause the earbuds to overheat, shut down, experience battery issues, or suffer permanent damage. For best performance and safety, it is recommended to avoid using electronic devices in sauna conditions.

Q: My wife has allergies to certain material. Are these earbuds considered to be hypoallergenic? Silicon or rubber materials inserted into the ears?
submitted by jeffery - 3 months ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds.
Material: The Beats Studio Buds+ use soft silicone ear tips (not rubber/latex).
Hypoallergenic? They are not specifically labeled “hypoallergenic.”
🧪 What they’re made of
The part that goes in the ear is typically soft silicone (common for in‑ear earbuds)
Silicone is generally chosen because it’s:
Flexible and comfortable
Less likely to cause reactions than latex/rubber
👉 There is no indication they use natural rubber/latex tips by default.

Q: Why don't they show up when I just bought them and try to connect them toy bluetooth
submitted by Jude - 3 months ago
A: Hi, thank you for reaching out about Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds.
Your brand new Beats Studio Buds + may not be showing up in your Bluetooth list because they are still in their factory shipping state or haven't been manually put into Pairing Mode. They don't automatically broadcast a Bluetooth signal the moment you open the box.

submitted by Mpena1 - 4 months ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds

Q: Are these comfortable enough for sleeping in?
submitted by Mjubran85 - 6 months ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds.
👉 No — Beats Studio Buds+ are generally not ideal for sleeping in, especially if you sleep on your side.
😴 Comfort for sleeping: what to expect
✅ Positives
Fairly small and lightweight for true wireless earbuds
No stem (like AirPods), so they sit more flush in your ear
Soft silicone tips help with general comfort
❌ Main issues for sleeping
They still stick out from your ear a noticeable amount
This creates pressure if your head is on a pillow
Hard plastic body presses into your ear when lying on your side
Designed for upright use (walking, gym, travel) — not for long overnight wear
Can become uncomfortable or even painful after a while in side-sleeping positions

Q: How long does it take to fully charge?
submitted by tbabyxo - 6 months ago
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Beats Studio Buds + True Wireless Bluetooth Noise Cancelling Earbuds.
✅ Full charge
About 1.5 to 2 hours to fully charge the earbuds + case from empty
👉 That’s pretty standard for true wireless earbuds with a charging case.

Not worth the price tag
Great product if you are only doing one thing. You cannot listen to music while playing idle games even with the sound on said game muted without the audio getting so choppy and garbled you cant understand anything. Tested on two completely different sets.

Beats Studio Buds
Horrible you can charge them to 100% and soon as you take them out of the card there lose 5 percent. Sound quality when it works is fine but after a while static is what you hear. Went through all earpiece cushions and they still fall out of your ear. Worst purchase!

Already breaking after 3 months
I’ve only had these headphones for a little over 2 months now and they are already breaking! The right ear is going out and no one can hear me on phone calls which is frustrating. I wanted to like these because the size, bass is decent, and they hold a charge but spending $150 to have them break in a couple months is just not worth it!

Save your money
Do not recommend buying these. They do not stay in your ears, any chewing, pressure on your ears, etc causes them to slip out. Wore them on a flight and they wouldn’t stay in if i had my neck pillow on or if I had gum in my mouth. Also, the noise cancelling only activates if both headphones are in, and whatever is being played through the device is not automatically paused if the earbud falls out or is removed, and instead will keep playing. The button on the side is either used for toggling on and off noise cancelling or for increasing and decreasing volume, but not both at the same time. And finally, every once in a while the audio will start crackling for a span of time. I would recommend the JBL Quiet Comfort earbuds 1000x over these.

Dies right after warranty period
These beats barely lasted a year. I thought they would be warrantied and Beats refused saying I caused damage. I ended up buying another- and sure enough, died right after my year warranty. I’ll never buy this brand again.

I have unpaired and paired multiple times to try and fix the choppy sound quality, earbuds this expensive should have horrible CHOPPY sound quality , my phone is right next to me and I have great wifi connection. Maybe it’s just this pair but I’m returning these , going to spend the extra 50$ and just go with apple. They fit good though i did the head shake and jumping up and down tried making them fall out but they are surprisingly snug in the ear, at least they got that right. But must be a hardware issue. I have an up to date iPhone 14 for reference
