Beats Studio Buds Specifications and Features
The Beats Studio Buds are powered by a proprietary dual-element diaphragm driver within a dual-chamber housing. Apple says they have an advanced digital processor that optimizes audio performance to increase volume and clarity. There are two modes in the Beats Studio Buds, ANC and Transparency. ANC uses a finely tuned filter that dynamically adapts to surroundings to keep unwanted sound out of the listener’s ears. With Transparency mode, the outward-facing microphones allow outside sound to reach your ears along with the music for what Apple calls a “natural and open listening experience.”
The Beats Studio Buds can offer eight hours of listening time with ANC or Transparency mode turned off in terms of battery life. You can get two additional charges for full use of up to 24 hours with the case. With ANC or Transparency mode activated, the headphones can offer up to five hours of continuous listening time and an additional 10 hours, including the battery in the case. The Beats Studio Buds also support fast charging with a five-minute charge that offers one hour of playtime. Apple’s new Beats headphones are IPX4 rated for sweat and water resistance.
The Beats Studio Buds use Class 1 Bluetooth to connect with Android and iOS devices and support one-touch pairing with both Android and iOS. This means that simply opening the case near an Android or iOS device will pair the headphones with the device. Previously, this functionality was limited to pairing between Apple devices and Apple headphones. This time around, Android users will be able to use it, too, though they’ll need the Beats app to use features like built-in controls, battery levels, and firmware updates. On iOS devices, these functions are built into the operating system.
You can also use Siri hands-free on the Beats Studio Buds simply by saying the command “Hey Siri.” The charging case supports USB Type-C charging, and the earbuds don’t come with touch controls. They have physical buttons that can control music, calls, and switch between ANC and Transparency modes.
