Quick verdict

A gray Studio-style over-ear built on a public mold, listed with Bluetooth 5.0, an 8+ hour battery claim and a 3-month warranty. Independent buyer evidence for this exact listing is absent, and the public claims describe a replica-dominated market where serial-number and app checks do not confirm authenticity. Buy only if you accept those limits.

Reference price

$76.87 USD $86.72

Final item price, service fees and international shipping are confirmed on the shopping agent's website.

Pros

· Several colorways are listed, including the gray shown, plus black, blue and brown.
· The listing states a 3-month warranty period.
· Line-level only: buyers of this seller's other Beats Studio-replica listings report good sound, adequate noise cancelling, convincing in-hand weight and app pairing — a different item, not evidence about this one.

Cons

· Authenticity cannot be confirmed by serial-number or app checks: copies of Beats models can show the pairing pop-up, register on Beats' site, and fake units often reuse a genuine serial number.
· Public discussion describes the low-priced Studio-style over-ear market as dominated by Huaiqiangbei replicas sold under 'US version' or 'HK version' labels at a markup.
· Copy Beats over-ears are repeatedly described with weaker chip generations, inferior sound, 'noise cancelling' that is mostly passive isolation, and poor build with limited service life.
· Line-level, original Studio3: ear cups run small and shallow, with ears or earrings not fitting fully and soreness within roughly an hour for some owners; several describe a tight clamp.
· Line-level, original Studio3: recurring reports of headband plastic cracking near the ear cups after a year or two and ear pads degrading, with repairs described as expensive.
· On-page specs (Bluetooth 5.0, 8+ hours, generic chip, life water resistance) do not match the genuine Studio3's documented W1 chip, ~22 hours, micro-USB charging and no rated IP water resistance.

Fit notes

No fit measurements are given. Line-level reports on the original Studio3 this listing imitates describe ear cups that run small and shallow for over-ear use, with some owners reporting soreness within about an hour and a tight clamp; not verified on this replica, so check cup dimensions and return terms before ordering.

Buy if

You want a gray headband-style Bluetooth over-ear in the Studio look at a low reference price, and you are comfortable treating the on-page specs as listing claims rather than verified performance. Suits buyers who accept that authenticity cannot be confirmed by serial or app checks.

Skip if

You need verified authenticity, documented active noise cancelling, or specs matching the genuine Beats Studio3. If ear-cup room or long-term headband durability matters, line-level reports on the original give reason to check fit and build first.

Buying FAQ

Common questions

Can I verify authenticity with the Beats app or serial number?⌄

No. Public claims state that cheap Beats copies can already show the pairing pop-up, register on Beats' site and connect to the Beats app, and fake units often reuse a genuine serial number — so neither check is proof on listings like this.

Does the spec sheet match the real Beats Studio3?⌄

It does not. The listing shows Bluetooth 5.0, '8+ hours' battery, life water resistance and an unspecified chip, while the genuine Studio3 is documented with the Apple W1 chip, roughly 22 hours of playback and no rated IP water resistance.

What is the battery life?⌄

The listing claims 8+ hours. That is a catalog specification only, so treat it as a listing claim rather than a verified result.

Is there active noise cancelling?⌄

Active noise cancelling is not among the listed features, and general discussion of copy Beats over-ears describes their 'noise cancelling' as mostly passive isolation.

What warranty comes with it?⌄

The listing states a 3-month warranty period. Service terms and how they are handled through a shopping agent are not described, so confirm them before ordering.

Will the ear cups fit larger ears?⌄

There is no fit data for this replica. Line-level owner reports on the original Studio3 describe small, shallow cups and a tight clamp, so check cup dimensions and return terms if ear comfort is a priority.

other · tip · 55% confidence

The spec set on this listing (Bluetooth 5.0, '8+ hours' battery, 'life water resistance', unspecified generic chip) does not match the genuine Beats Studio3 it visually imitates, which is documented with the Apple W1 chip, ~22 hours of playback, micro-USB charging and no rated IP water resistance — buyers should treat the on-page specs as listing claims rather than verified performance.

quality · tip · 72% confidence

Single-point authenticity checks no longer reliably separate real Beats from replicas: cheap copies of Beats models (including the Studio line) can already show the pairing pop-up, register on Beats' site, and connect to the Beats app, and fake units often reuse a genuine serial number, so 'serial number checks out' or 'app connects' is not proof of authenticity on listings like this one.

Chinese buyer/enthusiast discussion describes the low-priced Studio3-style over-ear market as dominated by Huaiqiangbei (华强北) replicas sold under 'US version' or 'HK version' labels at a markup, with sellers openly stating the cheaper and more expensive units are the same replica stock.

Discussion of cheap copy Beats over-ear/earbud headphones repeatedly cites weaker chip/algorithm generations, inferior sound quality, 'noise cancelling' that is mostly passive isolation, and poor build quality with limited service life compared with the genuine product.

quality · pro · 45% confidence

On Weidian, buyers of the same seller's Beats Studio-series replica listings (Studio Pro variants, different item — line-level only) report the sound quality as good, the noise cancelling as adequate, the in-hand feel as convincingly weighted, and the official Beats app as connecting, often describing them as close to the authentic product for the price.

sizing · con · 55% confidence

For the original Beats Studio3 that this public-mold listing imitates (line-level reference, not verified on the replica itself), multiple owners report the ear cups run small and shallow for an over-ear design: users with average-to-large ears or earrings say their ears do not fit fully inside, causing irritation and soreness within roughly an hour of wear, and several describe the clamp as tight.
