A good headset feels like a necessity in the modern age, but if you're looking for something compact, there's a Black Friday deal on right now for the Beats Studio earbuds that feature active noise-cancelling technology. Normally $150, you can get these for $80, a pretty substantial savings. These are sweat-resistant earbuds as well, so if you're looking for something to use when you're at the gym, they should work nicely during a strenuous workout. You can pick between black, red, and white Studio Buds.
Beats Studio Buds
$80 (was $150)
The Beats Studio Buds are compatible with iOS, Android, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices. You can expect to get up to eight hours of listening from a full charge, or around 24 hours in total when combined with the charging case. The Class 1 Bluetooth rating means that it has an extended range when in use, it's designed to offer a powerful but balanced soundscape, and it has built-in microphones in case you need to take a call. Also worth noting is that it has active noise cancellation (ANC) and transparency modes, so you can quickly switch between them based on your needs.
There's also the higher end Beats Studio Buds+, which has a better built-in microphone and is on sale for $130 (was $170). There's even a cool transparent model.
Beats Studio3 Wireless ANC Headphones with Apple W1 Chip
$89 (was $160)
If you prefer over-ear headphones, Walmart has the Beats Studio3 Wireless Headphones with ANC on sale for $89 for Black Friday. Normally $159, the Studio3 headphones offer very solid value at this price, as they block out noise fairly well and are equipped with Apple's W1 Headphone Chip. Walmart has black, gray, and white color options for this price.
Beats Solo 4 Wireless Headphones
$100 (was $200)
Amazon has the Beats Solo 4 for $100 (was $200). This is a solid headset with decent audio and a good, stylish build quality. The original $200 price is too high--you're paying for the brand name--but it's a good deal at $100.
The Solo 4 headphones have very good battery life. You can get up to 50 hours of playback on a full charge. Better yet, 10 minutes of charging can replenish five hours of listening time.
