Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Excellent sound quality. Great battery life - full day. Convenient design, hard to loose. Pairs with iPhone easily, switches between devices quickly. Works with android too.
One downside: microphone clogged with sweat quickly and my voice become mumbled during voice calls.
This neck band style is so comfortable, you can just pop it out and let it hang, no need to carry extra cases or worry about falling off.
The connectivity is as fast as any apple earphones. Battery lasts long.
Only thing missing is noise cancellation, would be good to have that sometime in a newer model.
After a few reviews, I decided to pick these up as they fit my budget nicely. And damn do I wish I picked these up sooner.
They personally sound a lot better than my Beats Studio 3s and not far off my Bang and Olufsen products. They still have a V sounding profile with more bass and treble but this complements my music genres. They use USB-C to charge and charge very quickly as well as having a neckband design which is perfect as it means i can just hang them around my neck when not in use. The microphone is adequate for a Bluetooth device but what really impressed me was the Bluetooth connection. No dropouts from my Apple devices as well as no latency, which I have experienced a lot of with other products.

This is so annoying as I have already have had one set replaced
Can I afford £70 every year to replace them, much as I do love them I’m afraid I’ll go for the less expensive version

Der Sound ist einfach großartig – klar, scharf und ein echter Genuss für die Ohren. Egal ob beim Musikhören oder Telefonieren: meine Gesprächspartner haben sich nie über die Audioqualität beschwert. Sie sind vielleicht nicht die superduper Kopfhörer auf dem Markt, und für bestimmte Musikgenres gibt es bessere Alternativen, aber sie gehören definitiv zu den besten, die ich je genutzt habe. Nach über einem Jahr intensiver Nutzung hat sich der Sound nicht verschlechtert – ein großer Pluspunkt, wenn man bedenkt, dass meine AirPods und AirPods Pro, trotz aller Vorsicht, nach einem Jahr den Dienst quittiert haben. In Anbetracht des Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnisses werde ich definitiv eher ein weiteres Paar Beats Flex kaufen, bevor ich wieder in AirPods Pro investiere.
Die Verbindung zum iPhone funktioniert so reibungslos, dass ich manchmal vergesse, dass ich sie überhaupt gekoppelt habe. Der Wechsel zwischen meinem MacBook Pro und dem iPhone ist allerdings etwas hakelig – was manchmal etwas nervig sein kann. Der Akku hält lange durch und lädt erfreulich schnell auf. Natürlich könnte die Akkulaufzeit länger sein – aber das gilt für jedes batteriebetriebene Gerät. Ein Wunsch, den ich hätte, ist die Möglichkeit, gleichzeitig zu telefonieren und zu laden, was leider nicht möglich ist. Ob das aus Sicherheitsgründen so ist, weiß ich nicht, aber es wäre definitiv praktisch.
Die Farbwahl ist ebenfalls ein Highlight. Ich habe die "Flammenblau" Variante gewählt, und der Farbton ist einfach klasse. Er ist leuchtend genug, um auch bei schwachem Licht gut sichtbar zu sein, ohne dabei aufdringlich zu wirken. Besonders gefällt mir, dass das Beats-Logo in einem passenden dunklen Blau gehalten ist, statt in einem langweiligen Weiß oder Schwarz, wie es die meisten anderen Marken machen würden. Ich habe für jedes Familienmitglied eine andere Farbe gekauft, damit es keine Verwechslungen gibt. Es wäre schön, wenn es noch mehr Farboptionen gäbe, aber selbst die aktuelle Auswahl übertrifft den Standard.
Das Design der Beats Flex ist schlichtweg tadellos. Das Kabel ist aus hochwertigem Material gefertigt, weich und angenehm zu tragen, ohne am Hals zu stören. Die Magnete an den Ohrstöpseln sind eine geniale Idee – sie verwandeln die Kopfhörer in eine stylische Halskette, wenn man sie gerade nicht benutzt. Und sie scheinen sogar ein intelligentes Energiesparsystem zu haben, das die Kopfhörer in den Ruhemodus schickt, wenn die Ohrstöpsel zusammenklappen. Das Kabel ist lang genug, um es zweimal um den Hals zu wickeln, was einen zusätzlichen modischen Touch verleiht. Die Tasten und der USB-C-Ladeanschluss sind clever platziert und leicht zugänglich.
Nach einem Jahr intensiver, aber vorsichtiger Nutzung habe ich allerdings ein paar feine Risse in den harten Plastikteilen entdeckt. Sie beeinträchtigen weder den Klang noch das Aussehen, aber sie sind trotzdem ein bisschen besorgniserregend. Ich hoffe, dass sich die Risse nicht weiter ausbreiten. Trotz dieser kleinen Makel übertrifft die Bauqualität der Beats Flex immer noch die der deutlich teureren AirPods Pro.
Mein größtes Bedenken ist, dass dieses Produkt möglicherweise eingestellt wird, weil die Welt scheinbar auf komplett kabellose In-Ear-Kopfhörer abfährt. Aber ehrlich gesagt, finde ich diese kleinen Dinger ziemlich nervig. Ich liebe es, dass ich bei den Beats Flex kein zusätzliches Etui mitschleppen muss und sie einfach um den Hals tragen kann. Es gibt nur wenige Produkte, die so praktisch, stilvoll und qualitativ hochwertig sind wie diese. KUDOS an den Designer.
