Reviews for Beats by Dr. Dre Wireless On-Ear Headphones

Unlike other people, I have no issues with blue tooth connection at all - it's great. Everytime I attach it to the cable (with the remote/mic) it has a mind of its own. Stopping/starting music, siri, voice control it just goes in circles. They're totally unuseable with the cable. So frustrating as I can't use these unless they're in bluetooth mode and don't always have access to a computer to charge them! Nearly $400 on unuseable headphones and nobody seems to be able to help me.

I've had my Beats Wireless for 7 months now and can tell you that many of the problems reported here are not just specific to iPhones. As well as my iPhone 4 I have noticed the same problems on my Galaxy S3 as well as my old Nokia Xpress. Random dropouts of audio or headset buttons failing to respond. Just to day (reason for me finding this thread) I've realised that streaming videos from YouTube or Vimeo while using headphones can be a problem also. Found it very difficult even on wifi to get videos to even load, but the moment I disconnected they loaded. I had this issue on both my iPhone and S3. I wonder if this is a Bluetooth frequency interference?
If those problems can get sorted that would be great, but I don't think its an Apple issue.

Already read somewhere before the purchase that somebody's headband had cracked, but thought it's a result of lack of care. But when the headphones arrived I understood the issue: A 2mm thick plastic headband is supposed to withstand the strains of daily use. And surely, after 2months of (careful) use, the headband broke. Just like that.

Apart from that relatively positive experience, no pairing issues with iPhone4S, iPhone4 and the Macbook (the first device I managed to pair to my macbook), sound quality good, songs do skip a little forward at the very beginning of the song.

Skips forward during the first few seconds of every song. Also has random drop outs with Bluetooth.

I'd go wired or with a different Bluetooth set. This is the only Bluetooth set I've seen this issue on.

Bad beats.

These are horrible first they made the beginning of almost every song fast forward it sounds like its scrated but it wasn't. Then for my iPad2 they kept losing connection even when I was right next to it the bluetooth stinks. Also suddenly without any indication it stops playing music, it keeps playing but you can't hear anything through the speakers and the blue light shows its on and perfectly charged. Do not buy them the only way they constantly work is with the wire ,defeats the purpose of Bluetooth.

I was not impressed with these headphones. When they worked the sound was great, but the wireless connection cut out and shut off way too much. I was told their might be a bit of a glitch in them due to frequency pick up but when I used them it was too much. Would not advise purchasing these headphones go with the wired!

until ios6 took place on my 3GS everything was fine, but after upgrading playback has lot of drop-outs and skipping is like jump into the song after some bars and not at the beginning. Every hint like reset your profiles, re-pairing, reset iphone or other obscure voodoo like actions did not take effect on that bad habits. Finally i returned my beats wireless, because it seems that apple will not do anything on that problem on their side...and somehow i presume that monster also will not release an updated firmware, and i don't need wireless hp's that wouldn't do their job...

As I can see, lots of us have bought them and some month later the headband cracked, I bought them with my money and I am only 15, and I am emailing beats help custom, but I am not getting any answer, as everyone, 4 month later I was really taking care of them but, while I was taking them of my head, they suddenly cracked, they worked for like 2 weeks and suddenly a night they stopped working.
They are really good but I would considere buying theme , if you are lucky the headband wont brake....

The old Monster beats blows away the new HTC/ hp beats. Monster has the technology proven by their high performance cables. HTC and hp makes cell phones and computers, so what do they know about quality audio? I tried both Monster beats and HTC/HP beats and there is huge difference in bass.

I bought these about 5 months ago and as another reviewer stated they cracked. The headband near the hinge just snapped off while I was taking it off my ears.

I'm dealing with the warranty service now and I'm the one that has to pay for shipping and hassle for there defective product. You can clearly see that his is a design flaw that I hope goes through some kind of class action lawsuit because the price you pay and the product breaking from regular use is absurd.

Hope this helps someone else avoid this issue. Cheers.
