Our Verdict

Beats Flex Wireless

Beats Studio Buds True Wireless

The Beats Flex Wireless are better in-ears for their cost than the Beats Studio Buds True Wireless. While both headphones are comfortable, the Flex are more stable in-ear, have a longer continuous battery life, and have a W1 chip for seamless pairing to Apple devices. However, the Studio Buds have a truly wireless design, which some users may prefer.
