Our Verdict
Razer Nari Ultimate Wireless
Beats Solo Pro Wireless
The Razer Nari Ultimate Wireless are better for gaming than the Beats Solo Pro. The Razer are more comfortable, and their mic has a much better overall performance. They have a more bass-heavy default sound profile that some listeners may prefer, and unlike the Beats, their companion software gives you access to a graphic EQ and presets. You can use them either wirelessly or with a wired connection. On the other hand, the Beats are Bluetooth-only headphones with much longer continuous battery life. They have an ANC feature with an impressive performance and onboard controls that are easier to use.
