Beats Flex All-Day Wireless Earphones - Beats Black MYMC2PA/A review

Beats Flex is a good pair of headphones and a decent choice if you’re picking up an iPhone 12 and don’t want to spend more on AirPods. The smarts that come from the W1 chip is great to have at this price and the sound quality is ok, if a bit flat.
Pros:
  • Some AirPod smarts for a lot less
  • Neckband design can be useful
  • USB-C is great for Android users
  • They're cheap
Cons:
  • Sound quality is a little bit flat
  • USB-C annoying for iPhone users
  • No sweat resistance makes them harder to recommend for the gym

Beats Flex All-Day Wireless Earphones - Beats Black MYMC2PA/A review

It’s fair to say that the big Beats Flex news last week got buried under confirmation that you won’t get headphones in the iPhone 12 box. Apple’s thinking is that most people either have earbuds already, or have their eye on something more rewarding than the old, bundled EarPods – for those who...
Pros:
  • Most affordable Beats earbuds so far
  • Apple W1 makes pairing easy
  • Music quality punches above the price tag
  • Great battery life
Cons:
  • Doesn't get Apple's newest audio chipset
  • Auto-pause is a little clunky
  • Beats doesn't include a carrying pouch

Beats Flex review: Brilliant if you're on a budget

It's hard to imagine a more complete pair of affordable neckband in-ears on the market right now, whether you're an iPhone or Android user. If all you need is something that stays around your neck all day and lets you conveniently answer calls and listen to music, Beats' budget in-ears will fit the task perfectly.
Pros:
  • Flexible and durable design
  • Lightweight and convenient to wear
  • Sound is genuinely brilliant for the money
  • W1 chip for easy iPhone pairing
Cons:
  • In-ear feel a bit pressured at times
  • Fit sometimes needs adjusting as no ear fins
  • No official waterproof rating (although is weather resistant)
