Our Verdict

Beats Studio3 Wireless

Beats Solo3 2019

The Beats Studio3 Wireless are better headphones than the Beats Solo3 2019. The Studio3 are over-ear headphones that are more comfortable and have a good-performing ANC feature. However, the Solo3 2019 deliver audio more consistently and have a better battery performance. Some users may also prefer their bass-heavy sound profile.
