Amazon Prime Day has momentarily taken over the internet, and as part of the offerings, you can grab a pair of Beats’ higher-end headphones for the lowest price we’ve seen. The Beats Studio Pro headphones are down to just $170, which is a whopping 51 percent off. October Prime Day has also brought the Beats Solo 4 headphones down to just $100 — half off their usual going rate. The Studio Pros were originally released last year. We heaped a whole lot of praise on these cans in our official review, calling out the impressive sound profile. These headphones sound great, especially when compared to previous iterations. This is due to new 40mm drivers and an advanced two-layer diaphragm. We also enjoyed the robust transparency mode and Spatial Audio features, which include dynamic head tracking. They also feature USB-C connectivity for wired use, hands-free Siri, one-touch pairing, Find My compatibility and a bunch of other iOS bells and whistles. Remember, Beats is an Apple company. There’s no automatic pausing, which is something of an oversight. These aren’t the most comfortable over-ear headphones, which has become a Beats hallmark. Also, we bristled at the original asking price, but that complaint has faded with today’s sale.
