Critic Reviews

Beats urBeats Earphones Review - RTINGS.com

rtings.com

The Beats urBeats earphones are a mixed bag, offering minimal sound leakage and decent portability for casual use. However, their audio performance is unimpressive, with a bass-heavy sound that lacks balance, making them less suitable for critical listening. The build quality is average, with a somewhat flimsy plastic design. While they are stable enough for jogging and commuting, the lack of wireless capability and comfort enhancements might deter some users. Overall, these earphones are serviceable but fall short of delivering a standout experience in terms of sound and durability.

Beats by Dr. Dre urBeats review | What Hi-Fi?

whathifi.com

Great for bass lovers but lacking in finesse, the Beats urBeats are all about that low-end thump. While they boast solid construction and are comfortable to wear, their sound quality leaves much to be desired. Bass is deep and forward, but it overshadows the detail and dynamics, resulting in a muffled and imbalanced listening experience. Priced at £80, they disappoint those seeking a well-rounded audio profile, making them hard to recommend over more balanced options at a similar or even lower price point. If bass is your sole priority, they might suffice, but audiophiles should steer clear.
