Beats headphones are a tempting alternative to Apple's AirPods line, but they often come with similarly high price tags. Now, however, they have become much more affordable with a huge sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and Apple, where you can get some headphones for half off. If you’ve been waiting to pick up a new pair of Beats, or just want an AirPods alternative, now is the perfect time.  

However, with so many options available, it can be easy to get lost in all the choices. We have hand-picked some of the best deals out there in the Beats sale. 

Some great Beats deals

With up to 40 hours of battery life, a whole host of great color choices, lossless audio capabilities, and personalized spatial audio, the Beats Studio Pro are an even better set of cans when at 43% off. It helps that they look great and come with their own carrying case. 

While our review thought that the Beats Studio cost too much for what you got in the box, this deal makes them a much better deal, and worth the cash.
