Our quick take
Beats Studio (2013) - 4.0 / 5
Design: Plastic and fingerprints
Bass haven
To recap
Bassheads will love the low-end boom from the “remastered” Beats Studio headphones and they’re a comfortable wear. But for a brand that’s as much about design as it is audio, we feel that the plasticky, fingerprint-magnet exterior finish and £270 price tag is at odds with the image. And let’s get it straight: Beats are for beats, they won’t suit all genres of music.
