Good noise-canceling earbuds aren’t cheap unless you catch a deal like this. Amazon has Beats Studio Buds on sale for $99.95, which is $50 off their usual $149.95 price. Finding a solid pair of wireless ANC earbuds for under $100 isn’t easy, and when it’s a brand as well-known as Beats, you know they’re worth a second look.

I’ve tested my fair share of earbuds and can confidently say that Beats knows how to do bass right. But unlike some older models that went all-in on deep lows, the Studio Buds feature a custom acoustic platform that balances everything out. So you get booming bass but also crisp mids and highs. Listening to hip-hop, rock, or podcasts is solid without messing with EQ or bass settings.

One of my favorite things about these buds is their two listening modes. If you want to tune everything out, Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) blocks out distractions. But if you still want to hear what’s happening around you, Transparency Mode lets in ambient noise. Both options are game-changers, especially if switching between work, workouts, and commutes.

  • Price: $99.95 $149.95

  • Retailer: Amazon

  • Noise Cancelling: Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) + Transparency Mode

  • Battery Life: 8 hours per charge (24 hours with case)

  • Connectivity: Class 1 Bluetooth for extended range

  • Microphones: Built-in for calls and voice assistants

  • Water Resistance: IPX4-rated (sweat and water-resistant)

  • Compatibility: Works with Apple and Android

Beats Studio Buds use Class 1 Bluetooth, meaning you get an extended range and fewer dropouts, even if your phone isn’t right next to you. Call quality is solid, too, thanks to the built-in microphones that pick up your voice clearly without annoying background noise creeping in.

Battery life is another win: eight hours on a single charge, with the case bringing that total up to 24 hours. And if you’re low on power, a quick charge via USB-C gives you extra juice fast. If you’re taking them to the gym or for a run, you’ll be happy to know they’re IPX4-rated sweat- and water-resistant, so a bit of sweat or rain won’t ruin them.

At $99.95, this is one of the best prices I’ve seen on the Beats Studio Buds, and these deals don’t last forever. If you’ve been looking for wireless ANC earbuds with great sound, solid battery life, and a name you can trust, then grab a pair.
