**Beats Solo 4S Review: A Major Upgrade with Some Room for Improvement**

I recently had the opportunity to try out the Beats Solo 4S, and I have to say that these headphones are definitely an upgrade from their predecessors. But do they live up to the hype? In this article, we'll dive into the features, pros, and cons of the Beats Solo 4S, and see if they're worth the price tag.

**A Major Upgrade with Some Room for Improvement**

I decided to give the Beats Solo 4S a major go, and I'm excited to share my thoughts on these headphones. Overall, I'd say that these should be priced at $150, considering that you can get active noise cancellation for $200. However, I did feel that the lack of active noise cancellation was a major letdown.

**Not Just About Sound Quality**

While sound quality is important, it's not the only thing to consider when choosing headphones. The Beats Solo 4S also offer a range of features that make them great for fitness enthusiasts and music lovers alike. These include iOS compatibility, spatial audio, and a sleek design that's perfect for rocking out at the gym or on the go.

**Spatial Audio: A Game-Changer**

One of the standout features of the Beats Solo 4S is their spatial audio capabilities. When you turn on spatial audio, it creates a more immersive listening experience, with sound seemingly coming from all around you. This feature is especially impressive when paired with Apple music, and I found myself getting lost in the music.

**A Great Amount of Clarity**

Another benefit of the Beats Solo 4S is their ability to provide a great amount of clarity, even at high volumes. The headphones are designed to deliver clear, balanced sound that's free from distortion, making them perfect for music enthusiasts who demand the best.

**Battery Life and Charging**

The Beats Solo 4S also boast an impressive battery life of 50 hours, making them perfect for long workouts or travel trips. And with Quick Charge technology, you can get up to 8 hours of playback time in just 10 minutes. This feature is especially useful for those who need to stay productive on the go.

**A Nice Touch: Physical Volume Controls**

One feature that I particularly appreciate about the Beats Solo 4S is their physical volume controls. Located on the earcups, these touch-sensitive controls make it easy to adjust the volume without having to use your phone or music player.

**Water Resistance: A Lacking Feature**

Unfortunately, one of my biggest gripes with the Beats Solo 4S is their lack of water resistance. While they're certainly durable and well-built, I wouldn't recommend submerging them in water for extended periods of time.

**The Verdict**

Overall, I'd say that the Beats Solo 4S are a solid choice for anyone looking for high-quality headphones with a range of features. While they may not have active noise cancellation or a customizable EQ, they make up for it with their sleek design and impressive sound quality. If you're willing to overlook the lack of water resistance, I'd definitely recommend giving these a try.

**Other Features and Technical Details**

If you want more details on the technical specifications of the Beats Solo 4S, here are some key features that you should know about:

* **iOS Compatibility**: The Beats Solo 4S offer seamless integration with Apple devices, making them perfect for music enthusiasts who demand the best.

* **Spatial Audio**: This feature creates a more immersive listening experience, with sound seemingly coming from all around you.

* **Customizable EQ**: Unfortunately, this is not available on the standard Beats Solo 4S model. However, it's worth noting that Beats has released an updated version of the headphones with customizable EQ.

* **IP Rating**: While I couldn't find any information on an IP rating for the Beats Solo 4S, they do boast a sleek and durable design that should withstand everyday wear and tear.

**Shoutouts**

I also want to thank my subscribers for tuning in and supporting me on this channel. Keep it locked to Flossy Carter for more tech reviews and analysis!

the clout okay these going to look dope when you're doing your workout okay very trendy but they're very compatible with Android and iOS but I'm going to say if you got an iPhone you're going to get better performance all spacial audio now I want to try a few more things things and then um I'll give you my verdict let's do a little bit more testing all right so I got to do another sound test for all of my Android Warriors out there I Got the Beat Solo fors paired up to the Galaxy s24 Ultra all right now we're going to try another Usher song we got caught up here's Max volume let's try it now

hold up did y'all hear this I'm so C up all right I can safely say this if you got an iPhone or an Android phone these are going to sound terrific I will say they sound slightly louder slightly louder with the Android phone but I'll do a little bit more camera testing but yeah if you got an Android phone definitely you could buy these all right so let's try the reconnection test how long do these take to reconnect your phone after you power them off all right so let's go ahead and hit the power button okay you see they disconnected there's the music let's hit the power button okay one Mississippi two Mississippi you see they already connected just like that now I popped up on both of my iPhones back here all right so I would say two Mississippi that's excellent all right so now let's check the physical touch controls and on the side note these are fully customizable and the thing that I like about them a physical button if you're up in the gym sweating you don't want to be swiping and floing around you got a nice button so one press for playing pause double press that'll skip to the next song triple press go to the previous track you got volume up volume down you can answer an end phone calls and if you put the headphones on hey Siri what's the weather for tomorrow just like that all of the touch controls work perfectly all right so now let's check the call Quality I'm going to call up Amaya and officially congratulate her let's see if she answers hi girly congratulations you are officially a senior in college bro who are you who are you all right all right all knock it off knock it off all hold up all check this out check this out I'm testing out some new headphones which you are definitely going to like but I need your honest opinion okay how does the call Quality sound it sounds great crystal clear now are you using your phone or using headphones okay do you hear any wind noise right now okay good I had I didn't turn it on yet we got to keep you honest all we got to keep you honest hold up I got maximum windage on now you hear any wind no wind at all I got the the fan right next to the air cup you don't hear no wind you telling me okay now a little bit okay what about now though all right would you be able to have a real conversation with me right now like if we was talking about some deep tea some deep drama like I had these on would you tell me to take these off or would you just rock out okay okay and now now now for the kicker guess who makes these Apple you g to want these you're going to want these all right calm down calm down all you're gonna want these though you're gonna want these I I know you do I know you do all right all right well I'm going to call you back in a minute all right I'm making a video

Apple but one thing you can never deny is the core quality on their products airpod Macs airpod Pros regular airpods Apple products have excellent call Quality and these are no different and I've been having a lot of conversations with these on same thing excellent call Quality all right so now let's try USB type-c audio and we we're going to try these with the power off so here's what I'm going to do you see they connected I'm going to go ahead and power these off you see they're fully disconnected okay now I'm going to grab the USB type-c cable let's go and plug these in plug them into the iPhone and if you notice a little light came on right there let's hit play Let's get maximum volume you see the red light that means the headphones are powered off but we're drawing power from the phone and the music is on that is pretty dope let me see how they sound okay they sound exactly the same okay that is pretty dope all right now let's try the same thing with an Android phone now these are powered off as you can see this time we're going to try the 3.5 cable okay we're going to plug this in Android phone with a headphone jack let's sit playing the music you hear that let's get maximum volume we playing music with the headphones off now let me see how they sound let's go and get maximum volume okay we good okay all right hold up did y'all hear that nice and loud no battery necessary how dope is that now we'll do one last test with the Android phone we're going to plug in the USB type-c okay USB type-c let's hit play on the music let's get some volume same thing so you got USB type-c or 3.5 analog input with the battery off all right so now let's check for latency and what I mean by that is when you're watching a video is there any delay from the person's lips to what you hear now this is Netflix let's hit play okay now okay no lip sync delay at all let me wait for to see The Voice one more time yeah perfect no delay at all so this will be great for watching your videos all right so now let's try find my okay now I got my address blocked up but as you see I can play sound so if you lose these I'm going to hit play sound yeah hear this so if you lose your headphones you can easily track them all right so now let me answer those three questions number one are these worth 200 bucks I would say yes the sound quality the features the look easily worth the price number two which one sounds better the studios or the solos let's do a quick side by-side test same phone same settings same everything all right so I'm going to hit play on the music okay now I'm not going to sing for this one okay okay very loud okay been doing it my way in my way for years all right now let's try the studios Okay I'm going to start it over okay now in terms of actual volume they sound about the same volume but you could definitely feel more Bass with the studios yeah definitely more bass doing it my way in my F yeah okay yeah okay the studios in terms of actual volume just volume levels they sound about the same but the studios got more bass you got active noise cancellation and transparency mode okay so these are definitely the big boys which one would I pick the studios of course I need active noise cancellation all right so now let's try the Beat Solo 4S versus the Sony alware both of these 200 bucks but the Sony's have active noise cancellation and transparency mode and extra base now I'm going to go into this with an open mind I haven't heard this yet but I think the Sony's are going to sound better let's try the solos first okay maximum volume Optimum settings okay definitely the Supreme Clarity on these okay that that Basse feels good too okay hold up all right now let's try to P okay now in terms of volume they're pretty much neck and neck the Sony's definitely have a better fit because my whole a is engulfed under this oh the Sony has more bass definitely oh the Sony bass is rumbling I would say the solos got more clarity y the base on the all wear now let me hit that button okay yeah yeah yeah the Sony's all right check this out now I got to be totally honest with y'all in terms of just sound quality and in terms of overall value I would have to go with the Sony's first of all over the air okay now in terms of weight they're both super lightweight you can rock these to the gym but some people want smaller all if you want smaller these are more on air these are over with the ear that means your ear is going to be inside this cup so it's going to get it's going to give you a better fit in terms of your music the quality it's going to sound a little bit better with the Sony's because again it's over the air so it's blocking out some outside noise not to mention these have the Supreme active noise cancellation for 200 bucks and the transparency mode is pretty good and you got that alt button for the base so if you like bass Heavy Music and you want to spend 200 bucks I'd recommend going with the Sony's I you can't go wrong with these you get an active noise cancellation transparency mode and extra base fully customizable EQ I mean Sony wins this round however however we got to talk about looks all that's kind of important too you know when you you playing on a basketball team or you're playing on the sports team at your school or whatever you're doing or you're just working out in the gym and you want a little bit of you want a little bit of fashion sense okay you want a bit of little let me say that word again Riz are you trying to get your Riz up these ain't it I these ain't it you want to go for the Beats all right these are more trendy if you got a bunch of iPhones you you up in the gym working out with your Under Armour shirt on and your LeBron James or your Jordan's on and you want to have more fashion then you might want to go with the Beats all right this is Iconic iconic but my job as a YouTuber all as a YouTuber is to let y'all spend your money the best now if it was me and I had 200 bucks to my name and I said I got to go get some headphones I don't really care about the fashion part too much I would go with the Sony's but I would go with the Sony's active noise cancellation transparency mode customizable EQ and more base I am a base hit however let's go ahead and wrap this video up okay so overall overall on a scale of 1 to 10 I'm going to give the Beats Solo 4S a major major go what would I like to see okay now I would say these should be 150 bucks considering that you could get active noise cancellation for 200 so these should be 150 bucks okay for 200 bucks I would like to have seen active noise cancellation I would have like to have seen a customizable EQ and I would like to have seen a nice uh water resistance rating a nice IP rating now I don't know these might be ipx I didn't I should have checked that I didn't really see anything pop out for the water resistance on these but nevertheless I would like to have seen active noise cancellation transparency mode and customizable EQ and maybe a little bit more Bas okay these could use a little bit more Bass But if you want the same fashion all right you want the same iOS compatibility the spatial audio needs oh I will say that though I will say that the spatial audio does give it does give the solos more of a Clarity okay now I know everybody ain't like me everybody don't like bass Heavy Music some of y'all want to listen to Taylor Swift all right if you really into that Clarity I would say these have the Supreme Clarity okay not the Supreme let me stop using that word so much these have a great amount of clarity you're going to love the spatial audio when you turn on spatial audio if you're using Apple music it makes a difference okay it's not a gimmick and the head tracking the head tracking is so fun like like I'm saying L yeah like you know Different Strokes for different folks okay Different Strokes for different folks but if you want the trendiness and you want more Basse and all of the iOS features just keep in mind it's not just about the sound quality it's about the features the fine my the compatibility across all your devices being able to use these with no battery 50 hours battery life Quick Charge excellent core quality you know you got to weigh up the pros and the cons okay the pros and the cons are these worth 200 bucks yes without a doubt call Quality sound quality the look okay get your RZ on okay that's the last time you're going to hear me say that word on my channel but I would recommend if you want more sound quality and even more even more badassness clout at the gym you got to go with the big boys okay these are official tissue right here the studios anyway these are the Beat Solo 4S hit me up in the comments let me

a lot of people I know I know how the internet goes a lot of people going to say you buying Beats just for the name okay you buying beat for the name you're buying it for the look all when you up in the gym nobody you're not getting no clout up in the gym walking around with diesel all right ain't no ain't no chicks going to be giving you no no Riz you you don't got no Riz as the young kid say you don't try to Riz a chick if you ain't wearing some of these all right I got I know how that goes but honestly these sound really good and the when I switch to spatial audio it got a lot more vibrant but the head tracking the head tracking is not a gimmick it's actually pretty dope and I'm glad that they keeping this going when you turn your head all when I turned my head sideways it sounds like the music moved with me and then when I turned the other way the music moved again but it sounds loud and clear nice and vibrant you got a lot of bass matter of fact okay let's I put these

let me calm down let me calm down hold up okay the base is nice and clean nice and clean hold up let me wait for the rumble okay nice amount of Rumble hold up y'all y'all hear it m let they know that hear it woo okay okay all right now I will say this I'm almost 100% sure that these studios are going to sound better because I actually use these but for 200 bucks I am not disappointed at all first of all I got to say it again the name I you paying for the name and the clout okay these going to look dope when you're doing your workout okay very trendy but they're very compatible with Android and iOS but I'm going to say if you got an iPhone you're going to get better performance all spacial audio now I want to try a few more things things and then um I'll give you my verdict let's do a little bit more testing all right so I got to do another sound test for all of my Android Warriors out there I Got the Beat Solo fors paired up to the Galaxy s24 Ultra all right now we're going to try another Usher song we got caught up here's Max volume let's try it now I got to be honest they sound a little louder hold up let me listen I'm the a brother who been doing it my way getting my way for years in my career and every lover in and out my life I H and love left and te without a kiss until I met this girl find the tables around took me by surprise never thought I be the one breaking down I can't forgive it out I'm so caught up got me feeling it CAU up hold up did y'all hear this I'm so C up all right I can safely say this if you got an iPhone or an Android phone these are going to sound terrific I will say they sound slightly louder slightly louder with the Android phone but I'll do a little bit more camera testing but yeah if you got an Android phone definitely you could buy these all right so let's try the reconnection test how long do these take to reconnect your phone after you power them off all right so let's go ahead and hit the power button okay you see they disconnected there's the music let's hit the power button okay one Mississippi two Mississippi you see they already connected just like that now I popped up on both of my iPhones back here all right so I would say two Mississippi that's excellent all right so now let's check the physical touch controls and on the side note these are fully customizable and the thing that I like about them a physical button if you're up in the gym sweating you don't want to be swiping and floing around you got a nice button so one press for playing pause double press that'll skip to the next song triple press go to the previous track you got volume up volume down you can answer an end phone calls and if you put the headphones on hey Siri what's the weather for tomorrow just like that all of the touch controls work perfectly all right so now let's check the call Quality I'm going to call up Amaya and officially congratulate her let's see if she answers hi girly congratulations you are officially a senior in college bro who are you who are you all right all right all knock it off knock it off all hold up all check this out check this out I'm testing out some new headphones which you are definitely going to like but I need your honest opinion okay how does the call Quality sound it sounds great crystal clear now are you using your phone or using headphones okay do you hear any wind noise right now okay good I had I didn't turn it on yet we got to keep you honest all we got to keep you honest hold up I got maximum windage on now you hear any wind no wind at all I got the the fan right next to the air cup you don't hear no wind you telling me okay now a little bit okay what about now though all right would you be able to have a real conversation with me right now like if we was talking about some deep tea some deep drama like I had these on would you tell me to take these off or would you just rock out okay okay and now now now for the kicker guess who makes these Apple you g to want these you're going to want these all right calm down calm down all you're gonna want these though you're gonna want these I I know you do I know you do all right all right well I'm going to call you back in a minute all right I'm making a video right now all right 10 oh 10 out of 10 okay no doubt no doubt all right I'm gon call you back in a minute bye okay Maya rank these are 10 out of 10 and here's the thing you can love apple or hate Apple but one thing you can never deny is the core quality on their products airpod Macs airpod Pros regular airpods Apple products have excellent call Quality and these are no different and I've been having a lot of conversations with these on same thing excellent call Quality all right so now let's try USB type-c audio and we we're going to try these with the power off so here's what I'm going to do you see they connected I'm going to go ahead and power these off you see they're fully disconnected okay now I'm going to grab the USB type-c cable let's go and plug these in plug them into the iPhone and if you notice a little light came on right there let's hit play Let's get maximum volume you see the red light that means the headphones are powered off but we're drawing power from the phone and the music is on that is pretty dope let me see how they sound okay they sound exactly the same okay that is pretty dope all right now let's try the same thing with an Android phone now these are powered off as you can see this time we're going to try the 3.5 cable okay we're going to plug this in Android phone with a headphone jack let's sit playing the music you hear that let's get maximum volume we playing music with the headphones off now let me see how they sound let's go and get maximum volume okay we good okay all right hold up did y'all hear that nice and loud no battery necessary how dope is that now we'll do one last test with the Android phone we're going to plug in the USB type-c okay USB type-c let's hit play on the music let's get some volume same thing so you got USB type-c or 3.5 analog input with the battery off all right so now let's check for latency and what I mean by that is when you're watching a video is there any delay from the person's lips to what you hear now this is Netflix let's hit play okay now okay no lip sync delay at all let me wait for to see The Voice one more time yeah perfect no delay at all so this will be great for watching your videos all right so now let's try find my okay now I got my address blocked up but as you see I can play sound so if you lose these I'm going to hit play sound yeah hear this so if you lose your headphones you can easily track them all right so now let me answer those three questions number one are these worth 200 bucks I would say yes the sound quality the features the look easily worth the price number two which one sounds better the studios or the solos let's do a quick side by-side test same phone same settings same everything all right so I'm going to hit play on the music okay now I'm not going to sing for this one okay okay very loud okay been doing it my way in my way for years all right now let's try the studios Okay I'm going to start it over okay now in terms of actual volume they sound about the same volume but you could definitely feel more Bass with the studios yeah definitely more bass doing it my way in my F yeah okay yeah okay the studios in terms of actual volume just volume levels they sound about the same but the studios got more bass you got active noise cancellation and transparency mode okay so these are definitely the big boys which one would I pick the studios of course I need active noise cancellation all right so now let's try the Beat Solo 4S versus the Sony alware both of these 200 bucks but the Sony's have active noise cancellation and transparency mode and extra base now I'm going to go into this with an open mind I haven't heard this yet but I think the Sony's are going to sound better let's try the solos first okay maximum volume Optimum settings okay definitely the Supreme Clarity on these okay that that Basse feels good too okay hold up all right now let's try to P okay now in terms of volume they're pretty much neck and neck the Sony's definitely have a better fit because my whole a is engulfed under this oh the Sony has more bass definitely oh the Sony bass is rumbling I would say the solos got more clarity y the base on the all wear now let me hit that button okay yeah yeah yeah the Sony's all right check this out now I got to be totally honest with y'all in terms of just sound quality and in terms of overall value I would have to go with the Sony's first of all over the air okay now in terms of weight they're both super lightweight you can rock these to the gym but some people want smaller all if you want smaller these are more on air these are over with the ear that means your ear is going to be inside this cup so it's going to get it's going to give you a better fit in terms of your music the quality it's going to sound a little bit better with the Sony's because again it's over the air so it's blocking out some outside noise not to mention these have the Supreme active noise cancellation for 200 bucks and the transparency mode is pretty good and you got that alt button for the base so if you like bass Heavy Music and you want to spend 200 bucks I'd recommend going with the Sony's I you can't go wrong with these you get an active noise cancellation transparency mode and extra base fully customizable EQ I mean Sony wins this round however however we got to talk about looks all that's kind of important too you know when you you playing on a basketball team or you're playing on the sports team at your school or whatever you're doing or you're just working out in the gym and you want a little bit of you want a little bit of fashion sense okay you want a bit of little let me say that word again Riz are you trying to get your Riz up these ain't it I these ain't it you want to go for the Beats all right these are more trendy if you got a bunch of iPhones you you up in the gym working out with your Under Armour shirt on and your LeBron James or your Jordan's on and you want to have more fashion then you might want to go with the Beats all right this is Iconic iconic but my job as a YouTuber all as a YouTuber is to let y'all spend your money the best now if it was me and I had 200 bucks to my name and I said I got to go get some headphones I don't really care about the fashion part too much I would go with the Sony's but I would go with the Sony's active noise cancellation transparency mode customizable EQ and more base I am a base hit however let's go ahead and wrap this video up okay so overall overall on a scale of 1 to 10 I'm going to give the Beats Solo 4S a major major go what would I like to see okay now I would say these should be 150 bucks considering that you could get active noise cancellation for 200 so these should be 150 bucks okay for 200 bucks I would like to have seen active noise cancellation I would have like to have seen a customizable EQ and I would like to have seen a nice uh water resistance rating a nice IP rating now I don't know these might be ipx I didn't I should have checked that I didn't really see anything pop out for the water resistance on these but nevertheless I would like to have seen active noise cancellation transparency mode and customizable EQ and maybe a little bit more Bas okay these could use a little bit more Bass But if you want the same fashion all right you want the same iOS compatibility the spatial audio needs oh I will say that though I will say that the spatial audio does give it does give the solos more of a Clarity okay now I know everybody ain't like me everybody don't like bass Heavy Music some of y'all want to listen to Taylor Swift all right if you really into that Clarity I would say these have the Supreme Clarity okay not the Supreme let me stop using that word so much these have a great amount of clarity you're going to love the spatial audio when you turn on spatial audio if you're using Apple music it makes a difference okay it's not a gimmick and the head tracking the head tracking is so fun like like I'm saying L yeah like you know Different Strokes for different folks okay Different Strokes for different folks but if you want the trendiness and you want more Basse and all of the iOS features just keep in mind it's not just about the sound quality it's about the features the fine my the compatibility across all your devices being able to use these with no battery 50 hours battery life Quick Charge excellent core quality you know you got to weigh up the pros and the cons okay the pros and the cons are these worth 200 bucks yes without a doubt call Quality sound quality the look okay get your RZ on okay that's the last time you're going to hear me say that word on my channel but I would recommend if you want more sound quality and even more even more badassness clout at the gym you got to go with the big boys okay these are official tissue right here the studios anyway these are the Beat Solo 4S hit me up in the comments let me know what y'all think about these let's see how they look when you're ready to travel okay drop them in the case rock out just like that beats solo fors finally the upgrade that we've been waiting for no more USB typ uh no more micro USB charging and being able to use these without a battery that is a huge feature plus you got the USB type-c audio yeah these all with win and you had that volume physical touch controls yeah I'm stamping these down hit me up in the comments let me know what y'all think about these all right so one last side note now I don't like to leave any stone unturned I said these don't have water resistance and as I go through the website I looked up and down doesn't say anything about an IP rating okay shows you what's in the box here's all your teex specs I don't see any IP rating so it is what it is do not wear these if you're going to be going 30,000 Leagues Under the Sea shout out to everybody rocking
