Beats Studio Buds go on 20% sale at Amazon, offering AirPods Pro-style features for half the price

Beats Studio Buds are currently 20% off on Amazon, offered in red and black. The sale positions Beats as a budget-friendly alternative to Apple's AirPods Pro, with the company emphasizing comfort, light weight, and strong value for money. Reviewers cited in HuffPost describe the buds as more comfortable and lighter in the ear, with comparable sound quality and effective noise cancellation for the price. One reviewer said: "For HALF the price, you get a more comfortable and lighter earbud that you can barely tell is in your ear, and doesn’t hurt sitting in my ears after an hour like the AirPods."

Beats Studio Buds deliver eight hours of listening on a charge and up to 24 hours with the charging case. They carry an IPX4 water-resistance rating and offer a choice between transparency mode and active noise cancellation. They are compatible with both Apple and Android devices via simple one-touch pairing. The buds come with three ear-tip sizes for fit and support Spatial Audio for movies and gaming on compatible devices. Finger-tap controls let users answer calls, control playback, and activate voice assistants.

Several customers highlighted battery life and fit. "The battery life is amazing, which was the biggest thing I was looking for when deciding which earbuds to buy. They also charge super quick and I love the little case. And the sound quality is very good," one reviewer wrote. Other shoppers praised fit during workouts and the ease of pairing across devices. "This purchase was one hundred percent worth the price!" read another testimonial, noting that the buds stayed in place and delivered strong noise cancellation for workouts.

The Beats offering comes as Apple-owned Beats positions itself alongside its own AirPods Pro as a value-focused option for budget-minded buyers. Deal trackers cited with HuffPost’s coverage typically rate products at four stars or higher with discounts of at least 15%, and vendors promoting the Beats Studio Buds have highlighted the current sale as a temporary price dip before it can rise again. The real-time appeal centers on compatibility with iOS and Android, a lightweight fit, and a familiar control scheme that mirrors Apple’s existing earbuds.

As the sale continues, buyers should weigh the Beats Studio Buds’ eight-hour battery, IPX4 rating, and Spatial Audio support against the premium price of AirPods Pro. For those prioritizing comfort, battery life, and value, the sale offers a compelling option for listening, calls, and gaming on the go.
