My Beats Solo 3 headphones I bought in 2018 are still going strong but they aren’t really all that comfortable for long wear use; I think the ear cups are too small. I ended up buying some Sony WXM1000-4 last summer (from the Amazon warehouse) and they are much more comfortable. I can’t really say how long they will last for but so far so good and they much more comfortable on long trips.

I've been using Beats Solo 3 Bluetooth for 8 years. The quality is fine for my usage (gaming, video meetings for work). The battery is still going strong. I replaced the pads after 6 years with an aftermarket bought for under 10€. And they're confortable, maybe just a tad tight. I know they are not the best quality / price on the market, and audiophiles don't like the brand. However they work for normal usage. If you can find them at a good price, I'd give them a shot. edit: 7 minutes in and already got a downvote lmaooo literally what I was saying about hating the brand just for the sake of it Also OP literally asked "what's worked for you". So not sure why you would downvote a personal experience. kinda weird

I love the powerbeats pro for my runs. I use the beats solo3 for strength training/cross training at the gym

I’ve been buying solo wireless beats for years because they are the only headphones I’ve tried that hold up well to sweat, usually buy them used on eBay for like $40 and they last 1-2 years

Beats Solo works best for me.

I am a side sleeper and love to listen to audiobooks and even at the gym have issues with earbuds. I LOVE my beats over the head wireless headphones but looking for a pair of earbuds that I can fall asleep with💤 I purchased the Beats Solo at Walmart for 39.99 and the AirPods for 89.99 both early Black Friday sales. They both fall out lol. I’ll give to my kids. Please give suggestions 💛

I just upgraded my Beats Solo and I loooooove them. I know over the ear headphones aren’t as popular but they stay put, they’re lightweight, and the sound quality is great.

Agree, i tried working out with airpods max, beats 3 and xm4. They accumulate sweat, they bump on benches and they hurt on a 40-50minutes workout
