    Look and sound great!

    • Written by from Colchester

    I have always wanted to have a pair of beats. What stoped me was the horrible quality, becuase of the plastic build in the solos and studios. The executive have that enchanting beats look and now that they are made out of aluminum they are even better. The sound quality is great and in my opinion better than the Bose quiet comforts. Trust me, before theses came outI did not like/supprt beats in any way because i thought it was too high price for the headphones. Now that the executives have active noise canclation, aluminum build and look great there is no reason why this should not be your first option when buying a set of headphones in this price range!

    This beats all the other beats.

    • Written by from Singapore

    If you are a poor student like me, you have probably spent months considering different headphones and find it a big struggle to finally invest in one. You read up online reviews and ask your 'audiophile' friends for opinions. Your 'audiophile' friends are probably anti-beats and said they were horrible. Well, maybe the older beats headphones do sound bad, BUT..

    The beats executive is a truly awesome product. I was given many suggestions by audiophiles and reviewers, but wasn't satisfied with the mixed reviews. I decided to go into shops to test the different headphones out, and lo and behold, the beats executive came out as an excellent decision. It doesn't have as much bass, which I liked, and it makes almost every genre of music sound great (I spent half an hour trying it out). The mids and highs are crystal clear. Music do not sound compressed at all. The metallic build is durable and the style is non-mainstream, for people who like to tone it down a little. Overall, sound and music is a personal preference, and I highly urge people to go try it out for themselves. Nonetheless, I am absolutely satisfied with this product, and I'm sure I won't be looking into any other products anytime soon.

    Beats By Dre, all grown up

    • Written by

    If you're looking for a pair of noise-canceling headphones that look great with a suit on business class, as well as when you're going on a casual vacation, these are for you. I travel a lot for work and I've gone through a few different pairs. Bose sounds great but looks dull. Beats Studios also sound good but are too hip hop for me. The Executives on the other hand are the best of both worlds. They look and sound great.

    The only watch-out is the white noise you can hear on low volumes. If you're a sound snob you might notice it – BUT, it's only on very low volumes which is not how anyone listens to music anyway. Bring the volume to normal and you're in a world of pure sound. Crank it up and you're in a massive concert hall listening to whatever you listen to.

    One detail I love: you can unplug the wires and still enjoy noise canceling making your next nap on the plane wire free. Nice touch, Dr. Dre.

    awesome, no other words to describe it

    • Written by from Bastad

    These headphones are without doubt the best headphones I've ever used. I've had other different Beats headphones before, but these just beats them all. The sound, the comfort, the noise cancelation and the perfect base for the base lover makes these my favourite headphones out there on the market. The only problem with battery powered beats is that there are always that small irritating sound in the background which can be very annoying if you don't want to listen to the music very loud. Otherwise, these headphones are perfect, my ears doesn't even get warm and sweaty like the beats studio makes them do, and like some other say they do, but I just can't agree with them. If you want really good looking and awesome headphones, these are the ones for you

    Excellent sound, easy for travel

    • Written by from Edina

    Love the beats sound, which is similar to the Studios, but a much cleaner and more durable build, and the fact they can fold up and store easily in a bag/briefcase on a plane, make these perfect for the business traveling music lover.

    Hesitant Shopper

    • Written by from Sacramento

    I hesitated picking these up after reading reviews about the hissing...it's really not all that bad. The hissing, which I would call more faint white noise is only evident at very low volume levels (I used my iPhone 4s and could hear it at 50%). I don't know anyone listening to their headphones at less than 50% strength. I would definitely recommend these for someone who listens to Hip/Hop or pop type music. The sound is very nice. The headphones are very comfortable on my large head. The noise cancellation is enough for me, although if you want no outside sound, which I don't even know if it's possible, these won't be what you're looking for. I would definitely say though worth the $300 price tag.

    Sound Quality is better than Studios

    • Written by from Bonita

    Sound quality of these on blast is amazing. The bass isn't muddy nor is it too much bass like on the studios. They are Awsome and in every way. I compared to studios and the sound is a bit more clear with the mids and highs.

    clarity

    • Written by from Rotorua

    The best headphones for clarity i have experienced, the bass is enough for me and the music is so beautiful on these. recommend that you try before you buy to make sure they are what you are looking for. But for me they are comfortable and feel like good quality as well. in some reviews i have read people have complained that they dent or break easily, i beg to differ.
    They are like anything else. of course it will break if you are too rough. I put mine back in my case and never have any issues with durability. overall they have a good look and are sooo good to wear, and have excellent sound. I love music and enjoy these beats!! if you read too many reviews you would never buy any . go and give them a good try out in store.
