what's going on everyone is drivers consumer and today I've got a comparison video for you guys of the new Beats Studio versus the new beats solo2 so let's not waste any time let's get right into it alright guys here we have the beats solo 2 and the new Beats Studio by simply looking at them you can tell they look almost exactly the same - the size difference the solo to retail for $200 while the new studios retail for 300 so let's see which of Beats revamped headphones is worth your money when it comes to design and build quality there's very little to the side between they support almost the exact same look so your choices here are more about the size you'd like the solo tools are basically a mini version of the new Studios but it reaches an on-air design instead of the over air design the studios have and the different ear cups causes these to have a very different feel when on the new beats studios are one of the most comfortable headphones I own while the solo tools aren't good in the comfort department over time the ear cuts on the solo tools have great padding and are actually quite comfortable but they are pretty tight on the ears when wearing them for a while this means you'll have to take breaks when wearing them whereas with the studio's you shouldn't have any issues at all since these feature an over ear design and applies no pressure to the ears however I do like how the ear cups cover most of your ears with the solo 2 and the isolation it provides without having to support a bigger over the ear design although there's a big difference in size between the two they should both fit any head sizes as they feature adjustable head bands as far as durability goes there aren't any differences as these share the same overall build many worry about the durability of Beats but the new design of the studios and now the solo tools cause the headphones to be much more durable you can definitely bend these without any issue as the curved headband won't allow for easy snapping now let's talk a bit about the features the studios have a built-in rechargeable battery that will allow for 20 hours of use and this also powers the adaptive noise canceling feature unfortunately you don't have the option to turn this off and if you run out of power you can't use the headphones until you recharge them this is a huge drawback to the studio in my opinion as I hate needing power to use my headphones this is where the solo tools get some bonus points as all you have to do is plug them in and start listening adaptive noise cancelling on the studio's works very well if you want to tune everything out and focus on the music but I definitely think the option to turn it off would have been nice I've seen some people complain about the very low hiss when there isn't music playing but that's to be expected with any headphones with adaptive or active noise canceling the studios have an on and off button as well as a power indicator on the right ear cup so you can see how much battery you have left also when you plug in the cable to the studios it will automatically turn on and off when you remove it and lastly the studios have a mute button on the left ear cup if you temporarily want to mute the sound coming from your headphones the list of features is pretty one-sided because the solo tools work just as a normal pair of headphones there aren't any special qualities that it possesses against the studios aside from being able to work without power now let's talk about the accessories that come with the beast solo tools come with a soft travel pouch that'll be good to protect it from scratches in the store but it won't help much with impact damage the studio's on the other hand have a hard shell carrying case that'll definitely protect the headphones much better than the solo twos travel case but it also moves much bulkier and takes up more space if you want to put it in a bag they both also come with a tangle free cable with a remote talk control that has full controls when used with Apple devices and just playing pause with Android the studio's also come with a second regular cable that surprisingly was missing with the beats solo2 now let's finally talk about the sound quality if you assume the studio sounded better than the solo tools you'd be correct while they both sound good alone in comparison to each other the Studios do perform better but that's to be expected considering you're paying $100 more than you would for the solo tools if you're looking for bass they both have plenty however the studio's offer more clarity than the solo tools which helps it perform with more genres especially those that aren't bass heavy and vocals are clearer and have more presence in the music with the studio's both are great improvements compared to their predecessors and honestly I don't think you can go wrong with either choice if you're on a budget the soldiers make a great option over the studios due to the more compact design no need to be charged and being a third lesson price if you're willing to pay the extra hundred bucks you'll get better sound quality adaptive noise cancelling and an over ear design however they are bigger and require being charged to use them at the end of the day when it comes to making a choice between the two it all depends on which of the qualities each headphone offers is valuable to you if I had to choose between the two I'd probably go for the studios due to the better sound quality but the size and no need for batteries makes the solo choose a very tempting option
