** BEATS BY DR DRE - AVAILABLE NOW **

[Yaayuh!]

Its not really "being snobby" if a product which costs far less gives far better results!

Quite.

The newer Beats Studio, aren't bad (they're not great either mind), but are very overpriced.

 

[OhEsEcks]

If you like bass heavy music they're great. If you want accuracy of sound, you'll get something else.

 

[XeNoN89]

Always have been and always will be overpriced fashion accessories.

as a sound engineer in a previous life, I can tell you I would not pay £19.99 for a pair of 'Beats'

by far they are the worst headphones I have ever listened to, I have had better headphones come free with a diet pack of food.

this is of course just my opinion, and would recommend you try before you buy, that is of course if you care about sound quality and not the 'look'

sadly it is the 'look' that sells these, my only comparison would be to sell a high end 4K TV that would only output 260p.

I have no doubt in my mind, Dre is trying to work this out as we speak.

This seems like the wrong place to be selling/advertising these headphones. They aren't terrible by any means, but they are terribly overpriced. Can't see anything positive coming out of this thread regards Beats headphones.

April fools is on the 1st, you know that don't you?

My first thought was "is this a belated April Fools?"

 

[Judgeneo]

Its fashion tech people, not tech tech.

 

[Housey]

It's not gone well this thread, not well at all has it

 

[Cosimo]

Come on people loosen up...

Deep down inside you know that you want a pair.

So not for this forum at all then?

Deep down inside my colon maybe

 

[the_r_sole]

can this thread be updated with sales figures?
be interested to know how many fashionistas shop at ocuk

 

[Doggie2k]

All you will get is a Beats from a local hoodie wanting them from you

My first thought was "is this a belated April Fools?"

literally first thing that sprung to mind... I couldn't quite believe it seeing these up for dispatch at a retailer like OcUK

 

[Rroff]

Possible comfort considerations aside the Momentums are so much better at that price point its not even funny :S (If you don't manage to screw up with the 4 pole connector *cough*). Never mind the fact you can get cheaper headphones that have better quality.

To be fair though some people prefer the sound signature from a listening enjoyment perspective - its not for me but everyone's taste is different.

 

[soundb0y]

I'm about to order a pair, I think I'll just do a quick forum search to make sure they're not junk.


...Oh

 

[Monkeynut]

Are there any other headphones with Bluetooth AptX though? Definitely needed, A2DP is pretty much useless for anything other than music.

 

[TwsT]

If you like bass heavy music they're great. If you want accuracy of sound, you'll get something else.

If you even know what accuracy of sound is you won't be in the meerkat for Dr DRE BEATS

 

[rjk]

no but you wont be in the money supermarket with Snoop Dogg either tho m9

 

[Diagro]

I would rather buy some £20 ebay knock off's. Sound the same
