Our Verdict

Beats Solo3 2019 Wireless

Beats Studio Pro Wireless

The Beats Studio Pro Wireless are better than the Beats Solo3 2019. The Studio Pro are over-ear headphones with ANC, so they can block out much more ambient sound. They work via Bluetooth, USB, and analog, so they're compatible with gaming consoles as well as phones and computers. On the other hand, you might prefer the Solo3's on-ear fit. They have a more bass-heavy sound profile, which you might prefer, especially for genres like EDM or hip-hop.
