I got these headphones for my birthday last year. After almost a year of daily use, they have one tiny scratch above the ear cup. I've accidentally dropped them on my tile flooring multiple times, and no change in sound quality was noticed.
Most people who buy and eventually return these complain about the battery life. I listen to these headphones for 45 minutes on average a day, and the batteries last for about 3 and a half weeks. They take 2 AAA batteries. Buy a 24 pack of them and it will last you almost a year with daily use. Remember to turn them off after use. It's an easy habit to get in.
Beats are stylish. They look great,
Durable, as I mentioned in the first paragraph. The metal headband is super strong. My friend had the guts to pull his Beats Studios so much that they were almost at a 180 degree angle. (I didn't have the nerve to do that with my pair.)
The soft ear cups make it so you can wear them for hours without any discomfort, unlike Beats Solos, which I previously had. Though, they are a little bulkier.
Now about the price...
The price is too high. I will say that is the only problem with these. They are worth more of 200-225 dollars in my opinion. But if you aren't tight on money, it won't be too much of a deal. They are currently 275 dollars, which has dropped from when I bought my pair. The Solo HDs may be a better option if you don't listen to them for hour-long periods.
All in all, a great buy.
What's great about it: Sound Great, Comfortable, Stylish, Does not Scratch easily
