They're not as stunning as high-end headphones like Bose's but they're far better than the Studio2 Wireless. The active noise cancellation (ANC) is fantastic for reducing background noise to leave you alone with your music, but it's not perfect. For example, it's not as effective in removing the hum of a plane as true ANC headphones, and you may hear some low-mid frequencies when ANC is off.
You control the Studio3s with a the central button that is located behind the Beats logo on the left earcup. Pressing it once will play and pause your music. Triple and double presses allow you to skip tracks and then go back. The button has volume controls that are embedded in the ring of plastic.
