Beats Solo3 2019 vs JBL Live 660NC

The JBL Live 660NC and the Beats Solo3 2019 are both middle-of-the-road headphones that neither excel nor fail at any given task. The JBL sound better for most music with some bass emphasis, but not so much as to sound overly muddy. They fit over-ears and have a shorter battery life, which is expected from active noise cancelling (ANC) headphones. The ANC cuts out more low-pitched noise as well. As on-ear headphones, the Beats are more portable and use passive isolation only, so you'll still hear the rumble of a bus engine. They have the W1 chip for improved connectivity to Apple devices, and they're more bassy to listen on.
