The Beats Solo3 Wireless are on-ear headphones offering up to 40 hours of battery life, with a 5-minute Fast Fuel charge providing 3 hours of playback. They feature wireless Bluetooth connectivity, a RemoteTalk cable for wired use, and controls for music, calls, and Siri.
The Beats Solo3 Wireless are lightweight, foldable on-ear headphones known for their exceptional 40-hour battery life and punchy, bass-forward sound. They offer easy pairing with Apple devices and solid wireless performance, but their tight fit and average audio fidelity leave them better suited for casual listening than critical use.

4 source(s) feeding this product's score.
Video reviews we found, each condensed to its verdict. They do feed the HearWiki score, at a measured weight below what a published written review carries.
6:52The reviewer finds the Beats Solo3 Wireless impressive for its W1 chip features like seamless iOS pairing, long battery life, and extended range, but criticizes the build quality, comfort, and especially the overly bass-heavy sound that muddies mids and lacks detail. Despite the benefits, the reviewer concludes the $300 price is not justified and returns the headphones.
4:20The reviewer used the Beats Solo3 Wireless for three months and finds them a worthwhile purchase in 2024, praising the premium build, long battery life, and compact design, while noting drawbacks like small ear cups, lower maximum volume, and a micro-USB port. They rate the headphones 8 out of 10.
2:56The reviewer finds the Beats Solo3 Wireless to be a solid upgrade over its predecessor, with improved sound quality, a comfortable and secure fit, and exceptional battery life. While the price is high and the fit may be tight for some, the overall performance and features make it a recommended choice, especially for Apple users.
