Performance

It’s ultra-lightweight and ergonomically designed for long-duration comfortable use. We, therefore, experienced absolutely no discomfort after hours spent sampling its rather splendid charms, courtesy of lushly-padded and grippy earcups and equally comfortable headband, which additionally comes user-adjustable for the just perfect fit. With no active noise-canceling feature, it still managed to isolate noise pretty effectively for a graveyard-worthy effect. On the left earcup, you get a 3.5mm jack slot, with the cable additionally being removable and sporting a 3 button remote for iOS devices only as well as a microphone. For Apple fanboys. the 3 buttons comprise dedicated volume buttons as well as a central master button that pauses, skips and plays tracks as well as answering and ending calls. With all its multi-functionality resting on how many tappings you give it and whether you are on a call or not.

Sound quality for the Beats Solo 2 is much more improved over those of its august predecessor. The bass is still predominant, but the rest of the range is clearer and more enjoyable to listen to with absolutely no distortion worth the name no matter the volume levels.

MSRP is $200, though you can get it much cheaper depending on where you snag it. Available colors are, pink, blue, gray, red, black, and white, depending on how you like the action. The Beats Solo 2 is a worthwhile remake of the original. Not perhaps for true audiophiles, it still delivers the clear sound you just got to fall in love with. If you can’t or choose not to purchase its more expensive siblings, this one does the job as well and cheaper too.
