My second-favourite noise-cancelling headphones are back down to their lowest-ever price for Prime Day in all colours – at £159, I'm tempted to buy a second pair!

If you twisted my arm and asked me which headphones I used the most, I probably would have said Apple's AirPods Max 2. Then, if you twisted my arms a bit further and demanded to know my second-favourite over-ear cans, I would – through the pain, because come on, at this point, my arms are in a proper jerk – name Beats' Studio Pro.

One aspect of Beats' headphones that might tip the scales in its favour is their price. Amazon just discounted them to £159, which is less than half price, making them one of the best-value cans on the market today. And they look pretty good, too!

The Studio Pro are Beats' most advanced over-ear headphones (although a new model is certainly on its way), combining premium sound, effective noise cancellation and improved compatibility across both Apple and Android devices.

They feature custom 40mm drivers that deliver richer bass, more detailed mids, and clearer highs than previous Beats headphones.

The Studio Pro have fully adaptive Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), which continuously monitors ambient sounds and adjusts noise-cancellation levels in real time.

When you need to stay aware of your surroundings, Transparency mode lets outside sounds pass through naturally without removing the headphones.

The Studio Pro also support personalised Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, creating a more immersive surround-sound experience for compatible music, movies and games.

Battery life is another strong point, with up to 40 hours of listening time and up to 24 hours when ANC or Transparency mode is enabled. Fast Fuel charging provides up to four hours of playback from a quick 10-minute charge.

The headphones support lossless audio via USB-C and offer three distinct sound profiles depending on whether you're listening wirelessly, through USB-C or via the included 3.5mm cable.

Bluetooth Class 1 connectivity helps maintain a stable wireless connection, while upgraded microphones improve call quality and voice pickup.
