Beats Studio Pro Unveils with Improved Sound Quality, Spatial Audio, USB-C, Priced at 8.27 Million VND

After a prolonged period of anticipation, Beats, a subsidiary of Apple, officially introduces their latest over-ear headphones named Beats Studio Pro.

Similar to previous leaks, Beats Studio Pro inherits its design from the previous Studio 3 headphones. It comes with a padded headband, a foldable design for portability, and cushioned ear cups. The Studio Pro features upgraded UltraPlush ear cups with active foam for enhanced comfort and durability. The outer shell remains primarily plastic, reducing weight but offering a less premium feel compared to AirPods Max.

Although not officially rated for sweat or water resistance, Beats assures that the Studio Pro can handle high-intensity workouts with ease.

It's worth noting that the control buttons on Beats Studio Pro are predominantly located on the left ear cup, with the large 'b' button from Beats providing a single press for play/pause and answering calls, double press for skipping tracks and ending calls, and triple press to go back. Press and hold to activate Siri if you prefer not to use voice-activated 'Hey Siri,' while the volume can be adjusted by tapping above or below the 'b' button.

The right ear cup features a small button for power on/off, and holding it for three seconds will enter pairing mode. Double pressing the button will switch between ANC and transparency modes, or cycle through available sound profiles if connected via USB-C. A row of 5 LED lights below the power button provides feedback on the battery level with a single press, and it will flash when in pairing mode.

To ensure a seamless experience for both Android and Apple users, Beats Studio Pro avoids using Apple's dedicated audio chip. However, they collaborated with Apple engineers to deliver most of those functionalities through a custom Beats chip. One-touch pairing is supported on both iOS and Android, with automatic setup for all devices on your iCloud or Google account.

The battery life for Beats Studio Pro is rated at 24 hours with ANC or transparency mode on and 40 hours with those features off. If you're running low on battery, the Fast Fuel feature will give you up to 4 hours of playback with just a 10-minute charge.

When it comes to audio quality, Beats Studio Pro boasts the latest from Apple, including personalized Spatial Audio support with motion sensors and integrated gyroscopes to track head movement, adaptive active noise cancellation (ANC) with a dedicated processor, and upgraded microphones along with playback tuning to eliminate any artificial ANC artifacts before the sound reaches your ears. These headphones also feature a new proprietary switchable driver design with custom 40mm drivers, delivering over 80% lower distortion compared to the previous generation Studio headphones.

Notably, the new Beats Studio Pro headphones are priced at $349.99 in the United States (approximately 8.27 million VND). They offer 4 color options for users to choose from: Black, Dark Brown, Navy Blue, and Granite.
