You can’t go wrong with giving the gift of clear sound. That’s why earphones and headphones are always winners in the gift department. And, when they’re from a top-rated brand like Beats, well, you’ll just about mic-drop the holidays.
Lucky for you—and the people on your list—Powerbeats earphones and Beats headphones are marked up to 40 percent off at Amazon today. Act fast, though: This deal is only sticking around for Black Friday. Here are the ‘phones you don’t want to miss.
Powerbeats Pro Wireless Earphones
Although they’re owned by Apple, the Powerbeats Pro is Beats’ effort to beat (no pun intended) Apple’s AirPods. The Powerbeats have everything a great pair of wireless headphones should have, including a compact build, a nine-hour battery life, stylish and functional earhooks that provide a secure fit and, most importantly, top-notch sound with a wide audio design and heart-thumping bass. They also feature the brand’s “Fast Fuel” technology that gives about an hour-and-a-half of battery life on only a five-minute charge. Now that’s fast!
“First, I need to start with the fact that I’m extremely picky when it comes to headphones and I’ve bought over 20 pairs from Amazon from brands to no brands,” one enthusiastic reviewer shared. “These are the first pair of headphones that I’ve worn to the gym that have not needed a single adjustment! I have weird ears and no in-ear headphones have ever fit me this well. The seal is great and it just doesn’t move!”

Beats Solo3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones
Originally $200, the Beats Solo3 syncs to just about any smartphone or laptop via Bluetooth, plus they garner up to 40 hours of battery life on a single charge. This means you don’t have to be tethered to your device, but still get a solid stream of music and podcasts for nearly two days. This is also pretty impressive, considering that most wireless headphones tap out after about 30 hours.
“Sound is clear listening to music and talking on the phone. I don’t need the volume too high to cancel out background noise,” wrote one happy customer. “I can go days without needing to charge them. I like the storage case and it fits perfectly in my bag.”
Meanwhile, these premium wireless headphones are also comfortable to wear for long periods of time, thanks to their sleek design, adjustable fit and comfy-cushioned ear cups. Choose between color options like white, red and navy.
The Beats Solo3 also come with a handy carrying case, so your headphones won’t get scratched or damaged when not in use.
