Beats Studio Buds specifications, features
The Beats Studio Buds feature a proprietary dual-element diaphragm driver within a two-chamber housing. They offer ANC and Transparency modes which can be toggled via a connected smartphone or using the button on the earbuds. The earbuds use Class 1 Bluetooth for connecting with Android and iOS devices and support one-touch pairing with both Android and iOS. However, as they lack an H1 or W1 chip, they do not support automatic switching between Apple devices and do not support head tracking with spatial audio found on the AirPods Pro.
Users on iOS will be able to control various features on the earbuds and switch between ANC and transparency using the inbuilt operating system. Android users will be able to make use of it as well, after installing the Beats app to for configuring the inbuilt controls, checking battery levels, and installing firmware updates. Users can push the button control on the Beats Studio Buds to activate Siri, or use the assistant hands-free just by saying “Hey Siri”.
In terms of battery life, the Beats Studio Buds are claimed to deliver eight hours of listening time with ANC or Transparency mode off, and five hours with ANC or transparency mode enabled. Users will get two additional charges for a total usage of up to 24 hours, and the earbuds come with fast charging support for an hour of playtime with a five-minute charge. They also offer IPX4-rating for sweat and water resistance.
