November 24, 2024I was excited to receive this product as I thought they looked super stylish when I saw them online. They arrived packaged well and I was immediately impressed that they included a small carry case.
They charged quickly and I found setting them up to be straightforward, allowing me to wear them almost immediately.
On, they're lightweight, super-soft and very comfortable to wear. Initially they did feel pretty tight on my head so I was glad to realise that they're adjustable. (Pulling gently on the band allows extension meaning they can fit heads of all sizes!)
They do a good job of blocking out background noise which means I can have the volume lower than I would normally, which is a good thing for my ear health. In general, the sound quality is very clear and balanced. A lot better than my previous in ear buds from a different brand.
That said, these headphones aren't great for running. They're lightweight at just 217 grams, but the over-ear design still feels a little bulky. They also made me feel very hot after only a few minutes of running at quick pace. They're better suited for casual use, gaming or commuting - rather than high-intensity activities.
Overall, I'd say the Beats 4 are well designed and an ideal choice for someone looking for comfort, high sound quality and a long battery life. I would definitely recommend to family and friends!

November 20, 2024Loving the classy subtle pink rose gold colour. Easy to fold and store headphones in the case protector it comes with. Overall product appearance comes across as high quality build, compact and has a modern design. It is travel friendly and super quick to pair up with my apple products (Iphone Pro 15 as seen in attached picture - size for comparison). The sound & mic quality is excellent particularly when calling my friends as well as listening to music or watching shows on my Ipad. Fit and comfort is good, it does have a slightly tighter fit compared to other products but the pro is that it feels secure when I walk outside with it (i.e. it doesn't move or fall off easily from my head). Would definitely recommend this product to my friends especially those who likes listening to music when outdoors, light gym work or even for use to work from home when calling colleagues for team meetings (whatsapp calls crystal clear). Buttons have a nice feel to it located the sides. It has total of 4 buttons; to switch on/off, to increase volume, to decrease volume and middle button to pause/forward/backtrack/siri voice recognition. Product has a long battery lifespan, I have only charge it once since I started using it for the past couple weeks for a few hours a day. Light weight product, feels lighter than my Iphone! You can also easily hook headphone case anywhere you go, I normally hook it to my toddler's stroller as per picture.
Comfy, high quality sound

December 1, 2024I loved these headphones and will be buying a second pair I hope. They are very comfortable to are all-round high-quality. The blue colour is amazing and very sophisticated. The over-the-ear design is much easier than in-ear - which are more difficult to keep in your ear when doing vigourous activity such as running or a gym work-out. The earphones are very firm and the quality of the sound is excellent. Listening to music on these headphones is an absolute joy.
Setting up the headphones was easy: I just charged them using a standard charger that I use for my Amazon Kindle, and they connected to my iphone very easily via bluetooth. The power button, volume controls and play/stop-play button is designed very well - the buttons are big enough to find and press while doing a gym workout - the buttons are located one side of the headphone. The headphone's size can be adjusted by pulling gently on the bar to extend the length - so this will fit small or big heads !
While I was at the gym, I asked teenage 2 girls to take a picture of me wearing the headphones and explained I wanted to use the photo for this review. To my surprise, the girls held up exactly the same Beats Solo 4 product - they said they loved the product. Other teenagers have said the same. So I think it would be very popular with teenagers! Though any adult too would love this product.
I would recommend this product to friends and will be buying another one for us too!

November 23, 2024The design is definitely a strong point - they fold easily to become considerably more compact and are easily transportable when not being used - a very compact and practical case is included, that includes space for the (folded) headphones, as well as space for the charging cable included (USB-C to USB-C) as well as the 3.5mm-3.5mm stereo jack if you want to use them without the BT connection. This dinky case makes them very easy to pop in a bag of any kind, whilst still giving them reassuring protection.
The headphones were exceptionally easy to pair using Apple devices (as you would expect!) and they are also very intuitive to use in practice while they are being worn.
Having not worn on-ear headphones before, they were very comfortable and I would only say that I became aware of them in any sense after several hours of constant use.
Battery life is excellent and when they do need charged up this is achieved quickly (using the supplied USB-C charging cable).
The sound is quite immersive - despite not being noise-cancelling, outside noise intrudes less than you might think. If I was being picky, I would say the sound was perhaps slightly thinner in comparison to other similar devices I've used in the last few years, but this is not to say that the sound quality is any way poor and I'm sure that in casual use you would be delighted with the quality of the audio output.
Overall, this is an great set of headphones that ooze quality and have clearly been very well-engineered.
