Beats Solo3 Wireless have been discounted by Amazon and you can now pick up a set for just under £170.

Beats headphones are renowned for their powerful branding and immersive listening experience. Beats Solo3 were the first pair of headphones to utilise the new Apple W1 chip, also found in Apple's AirPods.

This technology, along with the renowned Beats logo, often comes with a heavy price tag. That was until now, as Amazon have heavily discounted sets of the Solo3, with some pairs dropping to less than £170, making them far more competitively priced.

If you are interested, act fast, as there's not telling when this deal will expire.

Where can I find the deal?

Beats Solo3 Wireless

The gloss black version is the cheapest on offer at £166.18, but it comes with a wait time of two to three weeks until dispatch. If you don't want to wait that long, you can consider the equally cheap £175 Gloss White set, which will be delivered tomorrow if you order fast enough.

The Beats Pop Collection is also an attractive and discounted option, with a vibrant design. Take your pick from a wide range of other colours, including black, white, gold, rose gold, red, and much more.

Specs

If you're seeking that signature bass Beats is known for, you certainly won't be disappointed, as the Solo3 audio performance has a crisp and balanced sound signature.

The headphones can produce a powerful deep bass response that will never distort, even at high volumes.

The headphones also feature the Apple W1 chip. This makes things very convenient for iOS users, offering easier Bluetooth pairing and improved range. For iCloud users, this also allows for seamless switching between multiple devices.

If you're into the Beats aesthetic and don't want to pay a premium for it, the Beats Solo3 wireless headphones could be the best set for you.

My Experience

I’ve been freelancing as a tech journalist for several years now, after long wanting to write about my passion for video games. I have bylines on Kotaku and other sites, but PCMag is where you can find most of my musings on gaming, its culture, and where the industry is going next. I also test online services for both businesses and individuals. If you’re interested in hearing me talk about entertainment, film, and TV, you can check out my Patreon and Substack, both under the name “Robby Knows.”

The Technology I Use 

Most of the tech I use every day is within the Apple ecosystem. Currently, I rely on a 2025 MacBook Air for computing and dabble in art projects on my 6th-generation iPad Mini. I don't go anywhere without my AirPods Pro 2 in my pocket. 

As an avid gamer, you better believe that I always have a controller in my hands if I’m not watching movies or TV. I use my PS5 and Switch 2 equally, depending on what’s the hot new release, and am always trying to find interesting ways to tinker with my Steam Deck.  

Given the current state of social media and technology, I find myself going more analog to escape the noise. I have a modest collection of watches, both automatic and digital, to free myself from the pings and notifications of the modern world. I also put my phone in a ySky lockbox for 12 hours every night to reduce my screen time. I spent a lot of the past year trying to read good books rather than scroll through feeds.
