My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: Beats Solo 4

Yes, the Beats Solo 4 just came out just over a month ago, but they're already being marked down with significant discount. Currently, you can get the Beats Solo 4 for $149.95 (originally $199.95) after a 25% discount. This is the lowest price they've been since their release, according to price-checking tools. This is why it's my favorite Amazon deal of the day.

Beats by Dre, which is owned by Apple, did some upgrades to the 4th model of their popular Solo headphone series—mainly, having the ability to talk to Siri without using your hands. But they also added personalized spatial audio to your ear shape, giving you "3D audio" that follows the movement of your iPhone (as long as that media supports spatial audio), as well as extending the battery life to an impressive 50 hours of run time.

The headphones are on-ear headphones (as opposed to over-ear headphones, which are bigger and cup around your ears), and they lack Active Noise Cancellation and an adjustable EQ option on their app. I like that they still give you the option to plug in a stereo 3.5-mm cable in case you don't want to be wireless. The sound is just as good as you'd expect from Beats headphones: a well-balanced sound with powerful bass and highs.

If you don't have an Apple device, you get less value for your money with these headphones because you can't use the Siri feature and they lack an Android-friendly codec. The flip side of that is Apple users get great value from these headphones, with AAC and SBC codecs, one-touch pairing with most Apple devices, automatic pairing with devices using iCloud across the Apple ecosystem, audio sharing, and simultaneous connection with certain Apple products (like your iPhone and Apple Watch) according to PCMag's "good" review.
