Earbuds are great for so many reasons — they’re compact, can offer great sound and are easy to travel with. If you’re in the market for a pair, there are tons of pairs to consider — with Apple AirPods being a top contender. But what if you don’t want to spend quite so much? Enter Beats Solo Buds. Like AirPods, they come with their own charging case, are sleek and have a number of different listening modes.
Normally, Beats Solo Buds retail for $80, but right now they are on sale on Amazon for $53. We don’t know how long this sale will last, so we suggest snapping them up if you are in the market for a new pair of earbuds.

4.2-star average rating from 1,633 reviews on Amazon
These earbuds from Beats offer 18 hours of battery life on a full charge. They also come with a charging case and have a function that the brand calls Fast Fuel, which means you can pop them in the case for five minutes and get up to an extra hour of listening time. You can also charge them by connecting the case to your phone via a USB-C cord.
When it comes to the actual audio, the Solo Buds offer high-fidelity sound and have dual-layer drivers, which minimizes distortion, according to the brand. They also have two listening mode — transparency or noise-cancelling — and come with four different ear tips for a custom fit.
Currently, the matte black version of the Beats Solo Buds are on sale for $53 (originally $80). The transparent red and storm gray colors are also marked down, but aren’t quite as good of a deal — they are on sale for $60.
