- How does the Studio3 compare with the Sony WH-1000XM4?
- The Sony cancels more noise, charges over USB-C and offers more EQ control. The Studio3 is simpler to pair across Apple devices and has a more bass-forward sound.
- Is the noise cancelling good enough for flights?
- Yes. Pure ANC noticeably reduces engine drone and cabin noise, though it blocks less of nearby conversation than the top current models.
- Can I use it wired?
- Yes, with the included cable, so you can listen when the battery is empty. Noise cancelling requires power.
- How long does the battery last?
- Beats rates it at up to 22 hours with ANC on and up to 40 hours with it off. Fast Fuel gives a few hours of playback from a short charge.
- Does it work with Android?
- Yes, over standard Bluetooth, but you lose the instant pairing and device switching that Apple devices get.
- What is in the box?
- The headphones, a carry case, a charging cable and a remote cable for wired listening.
