The Beats Studiobuds are a more affordable and portable option with wireless convenience, suitable for exercise and equipped with active noise cancelling, making them a good choice for travel and outdoor use. They also support AAC codec which benefits Apple device users. On the other hand, the Beyerdynamic 770 Pro (80 ohm), while costing a bit more, offers superior overall sound quality and comfort, with a better soundstage, which could enhance your experience when listening to music and watching TV. These are wired headphones, less portable but more durable, and lack a microphone and built-in controls, making them less versatile for calls and lacking convenience features like ear detection or app-based customization.

Chase Bernath | May 2023
"For less than the price of the AirPods, the Beats Studio Buds delivers a good fit, great sound, and active noise cancellation. This is also the first set of Apple-owned Beats earbuds to feature quick pairing with Android devices, albeit at the expense of some key features for Apple users."
