Has anyone done or seen a side by side comparison with Beats headphones?

Yes I have a friend with a pair of Beats Studios and I have the Crossfade LPs and although the Beats are somewhat more attractive, they feel more flimsy. Their sound quality is near to, but not exactly at the quality of the Crossfade LPs. I have also had the Crossfade LPs for two years and they have not changed at all since the day I got them. They are EXTREMELY durable. Beats on the other hand, I have heard have a tendency to break. If you are going for a large brand name and style, then go for beats. If you want a pair of headphones that sound good, feel good, and last forever, get the Crossfade LPs.

Plenty on you tube. And I have verified the Beats do have a hiss because of the batteries for the bass response. Plus v modas fit way better

I agree with a previous answer, V-Modas definitively fit way better... Beats tend to give you a ear-ache after a while!!

Well compared to base q c. They have been compared to the best. Sound isolating headphones

Actually, I've found them quite good out of the Apple system and can probably compete with the Beats i have at home, they sound amazing in my computer and home system as well.. good luck with them.

It depends on what type of music you listen to. Beats headphones are known for their bass. If your music that you listen to has a lot of bass in it then I would suggest to beats headphones

Here's what I understand. Monster Power beats are not what are pictured here. What the image shows are Powerbeats by Dre, the athletic in-ear headphones. Monster Power beats are the over the ear headphones. They are actually much more expensive (close to double the price.) The listing for $62.50 looks like it's from a discount business, so I would be careful. It might be fine, but you might be getting a refurbished set of earphones. Then again, because of the difference between the models, I would make sure you know which one you're getting. Over the ear, or in-ear. Here is a link to the official site so you can compare MSRPs and models. http://www.beatsbydre.com/collection/?cid=PS_google_beats%20by%20dre_Evergreen_Core+Terms_us_na&mkwid=sp6qTczgI|dc_pcrid_46072598937_pkw_beats%20by%20dre_pmt_e&migMedium=paid-search&migSource=google&migContent=s&migCampaign=Brand+Beats+Electronics+-+Exact&migTerm=beats%20by%20dre&matchtype=e

I think beats 2.0 are but urbeats are more durable but sound quality I like the 2.0's

I currently use these headphones and have tried some of my friends "fancy" ones. And i have never heard a difference.

I honestly have no idea. :). I've seen the white one was $599 on the Beats website, and the one I have was $299. I know some are wireless which may be why they are more expensive, but unfortunately these are not.

I assume I'm getting this question because I reviewed Beats. My review was definitely not good. They were expensive, broken within less than 10 days after purchase, the break occurred in a place that couldn't really be fixed and in my opinion was due to bad design and cheap construction. So I wouldn't recommend you buy any Beats products. I've bought 2 other brands since, which were less costly, much better made and sounded better too, so Beats pretty much can't really win me back unless something drastic was to happen.

Sorry I have not compared them.I was not as impressed as I expected to be. There are nice features like talk through button so if a flight attendant asks a question dont Ned to take headphone off. And the fact that if batery goes flat it still works as regular headphone but the Bose QC 15 us actually better on noise reduction

Fake or Not these Beats literally have almost the same quality as the fake ones. The difference is this just has little better sound quality. If you want celebrity headphones I would get the SMS by 50 cent on ear headphones. They are not popular but worth it, the sound and construction is so much better. If you have anymore questions then I'm happy to answer.

No they are completely different. I also have a set of Jabra sports so I know first hand

They are marginally louder but better sounding. However build quality isn't anywhere near the beats wireless and the controls take some serious getting used to as they are mostly gesture based. Also I was worried about the two cables that stick out from the sides. The companion app does make the headphones sound battery by the way

I own both and the Bose absolutely blow the beats out of the water in every way. Much better noise cancellation. the build quality is so much better and so is the sound. the beats sound so muddled out and the bass in them is way to overpowering and it is lagging. in upbeat tracks the beats bass falls way behind while the Bose sound much more tight. and if you ask me i think that the Bose actually look better, there is no douche B on the side of them screaming out hey look at me i paid to much for headphones that sound like crap. really if you want good headphones go for the Bose. or for cheaper and almost better sound quality go for the Audio Technica ATH-M50 I own both and the Bose absolutely blow the beats out of the water in every way.

I personally dont think so, the improvements are more so in battery life and weight, and the addition of NFC. At this point, the speakers dont really improve, but the way they are tuned changes. I personally think that beats does a poor job tuning them. If you thought the first pill sounded good, you will like the second, but i wouldnt upgrade to it.

I don't own a pair of beats, but I have listened to them at the store. Of course, they only allowed me to listen to their preselected music, so I can't be too objective. As far as the rythm, they sound pretty good, not better. But do not buy the miikey NFC ones because you will be disappointed.

Sure, we purchased other headphone and they were not the sound or duablity we were hoping for. The Beats By Dre sound great and have been durable in the first 30 days of use.
