Have had 7 pairs and all stopped working within 6 months. STAY AWAY!
Well, as you will see from the other reviews, there are two types of Beats in ear owners...Those who's units stopped working and those who just haven't had them long enough to stop working. I'm probably a rare case as I have had every single version dating back to 2013 even before they had their wireless versions and each and every pair I had failed and stopped working at some point. Photo attached of my purchase history so you can see I have owned 6 pair over the years and all ended up being worthless after a short amount of time. With the older wired units, I owned 4 pairs, they would work great for anywhere from 4-6 months and then one side would go out or the controls would just stop working followed by the ear pieces. With the wireless units they would just stop charging after the same time. I was actually thrilled when Apple bought beats and released their new "Beats 3" version that claimed extra battery life and a remodel. I thought for sure now with Apple in the game they would finally fix these issues. Well, exactly 6 months after owning the new Beats 3 pair they just died as the others did. No charging and just worthless. You were probably asking "why do you keep getting them if they don't work". Only because of my extended warranty plan am I able to keep returning them and getting new pairs as they fail. So now I am on my 7th pair and will just keep this going. It's truly amazing this company can't get this right, not to mention they are robbing thousands of people of their hard earned money as I would assume most of them don't have the extended warranty. Hopefully this gets fixed but if they haven't done it at this point I wouldn't count on it. STAY AWAY!
