We also weren't impressed with their call quality either. However, they lack a few key features: wireless charging, onboard volume controls and sound customizations. There's a lot to like about the Beats Studio Buds, especially at this $130 sale price. The Studio Buds work with Android's Find My Device feature, so you can use that to see the last known location of your buds. But Android users also have a Fast Pair feature now, too, which allows Android devices to immediately recognize the buds during the initial setup.

They still have the H1 chip inside, so you'll get fast pairing and switching between Apple devices. However, Beats added a number of new features that make these buds better for Android users, too. You may think that because these are Beats earbuds that they're designed with Apple users in mind, first and foremost. As far as battery life goes, the Studio Buds should get five to eight hours on a single charge, depending on your ANC use.

You're also getting noise-cancellation that uses adaptive gain control to adjust in real time, blocking out distracting noises like that from dishwashers, wind and more. The buds pump out good sound with punchy bass and they work with Apple's Spatial Audio feature, too. They have a smaller, more comfortable design that some past Beats earbuds and their IPX4 water-resistant housing will keep them safe even during your sweatiest workouts. We gave the Beats Studio Buds a score of 84 and we consider them to be the best pair of Beats buds for most people. All three colors have been discounted, so you can choose your favorite and save $20. But now the buds are on sale for the first time since they came out in June, so you can grab them for only $130 from Amazon. They were priced right, too, coming in at $150. While leaks somewhat spoiled their launch, Beats' Studio Buds impressed us with their comfortable new design, balanced sound and seamless pairing with both Android and iOS devices.
