Rather than be a rounded rectangle, the Beats ships with a pebble-shaped case. The Studio Buds' case is similarly anti-AirPods in its look. They're also very comfortable and can easily be worn for long periods without making the ear canal entrance sensitive or sore. ![]() The Beats don't seem to shift as much as the AirPods Pro when in use they just seem to sit, almost glued into our ears. What we did find, however, was the Studio Buds were better at staying secure in our ears than AirPods. Thankfully, they don't need to be pressed hard to activate. The only negative to using this physical button versus a touch-sensitive one is that if you press it too firmly then you end up pushing the earbud further down into your ear canal, which can be a little uncomfortable. ![]() You don't have to remember which earbud does what.

That means there's no stem sticking out of your years, a la AirPods, while the shape of the casing is hugely different to Apple's own-brand earbuds too.
