Beats Studio 3

The Beats Studio 3 have been one of the most popular over-the-ear wireless headphones since their debut in 2017, and with good reason. With superb comfort, sound quality, battery life, and excellent active noise cancellation (ANC), they’re a great choice for music fans who want the head-hugging experience of a set of full-size headphones. Right now, the Beats Studio 3 are just $200 at Best Buy for Black Friday — $150 off their regular price — making this one of the best times of the year to pick them up.

If you’re an iPhone user, you’ll appreciate the easy access to Siri, and super-simple Bluetooth pairing offered by Apple’s custom W1 chip. Simply unlock your iPhone, turn on the Studio 3 and place them near your phone. That’s it. With 22 hours of battery life, these wireless headphones will last all day with room to spare, and can easily get you through even the longest of flights. Should the battery ever die, a 10-minute quick-charge is enough to get you three more hours of life.

Beats Solo 3

Another great deal this Black Friday is Best Buy’s price on the Beats Solo 3, which are 50% off at just $150. Beats fans know that scoring these wireless headphones at half-price is a rare event, so if you’ve had your eye on these great on-ear Bluetooth headphones, now’s the time to pull the trigger. Available in a wide range of ultra-cool color combos, the Solo 3 deliver the kind of sound quality you’d expect from full-size headphones, but in a much smaller package that folds up easily for travel or storage.

The Solo 3 have an exceptional 40-hour battery life, which means you’ll be able to go several days without recharging if you choose. If it does happen to die, just five minutes of quick-charging will give you three hours of playback time. If you can’t even spare those five minutes, the included audio cable with inline microphone means you’ll always be able to keep the tunes going.

Just like the Studio 3, the Solo3 come with Apple’s W1 chip for fast and easy pairing, and you’ll also get a soft-shell carry-case in the box to help keep them looking their best.

Audio Technica ATH-AWX7000 wooden headphones launched

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.

The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.

Saved Custom Feeds are rolling out as YouTube also experiments with a redesigned Home navigation bar.

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
