Beats is an Apple company, Apple doesn’t discount, and yet the Beats Studio Pro just hit a record low on Amazon that Apple’s own store has never matched. The Studio Pro is down to $149, off its $199 standard price and the lowest these headphones have ever been sold for, with 40-hour battery life, active noise cancelling, lossless USB-C audio, Personalized Spatial Audio, and an Apple one-year limited warranty. No Prime membership required.

40 hours of battery and lossless audio from headphones Apple owns
The Beats Studio Pro’s 40-hour battery life is the spec that separates them from most competing ANC headphones, including Sony’s XM5 which runs 30 hours and Apple’s own AirPods Max which manages around 20. A 10-minute Fast Fuel charge via USB-C adds four hours of playback, which covers the situations where the battery runs low unexpectedly without requiring a full charge cycle. For travel, commuting, and extended work sessions, 40 hours means the headphones outlast a full workweek of daily use before needing to be plugged in.
Lossless audio via USB-C is the feature that distinguishes the Studio Pro from the Beats Solo 4 and most competing wireless headphones. When connected via USB-C cable rather than Bluetooth, the Studio Pro transmits audio in full lossless quality without the compression that Bluetooth encoding introduces, which means the gap between streaming and CD-quality audio disappears when you’re listening wired. Sound profiles in the Beats app optimize the audio further across different listening environments and content types.
