Unwilling to wait for the potentially impending release of the long overdue AirPods Pro 3? Unwilling to spend more money than you absolutely have to on a cool new pair of Apple-made wireless earbuds? Then why not go for the Beats Studio Buds Plus right now at Woot?
The Amazon-owned e-tailer is charging a lower-than-ever $84.99 for these noise-cancelling bad boys in grade A refurbished condition and a grand total of three color options. And while I know that some of you may not always feel entirely comfortable buying refurbished gear, Woot will hook you up with a 1-year warranty if you hurry and order a “like-new” pair of Studio Buds+ guaranteed to have “minimal” cosmetic damage not noticeable “at arm’s length.”

In other words, you’ll basically not be able to tell the difference between the refurbs on sale here at a killer price in Transparent, Black, and Ivory flavors and the brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged units available on Amazon for $15 more in four colorways.
That’s also a pretty good deal, mind you, especially when you consider that the Apple-made Beats Studio Buds+ haven’t been sold at a heftier discount than $70 from a $170 list price before.
But if you can save 85 bucks (or 50 percent) without cutting any functionality corners and making (almost) no compromises from a cosmetic condition perspective, why would you ever turn down the opportunity and settle for a (slightly) smaller discount?
With state-of-the-art active noise cancellation, top-notch Transparency mode, excellent overall sound quality, crystal clear calls, a battery life of up to 9 hours (or 36 hours with the bundled charging case factored in), and an undeniably stylish design (especially in a Transparent version), these are undoubtedly among the greatest wireless earbuds money can buy in 2025, arguably beating the likes of the AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods 4 in terms of bang for your buck.
While Woot is technically planning to keep its latest and greatest Studio Buds Plus promotion going until the end of the month, that might not be possible if many of you jump at the opportunity to pull the trigger at $84.99, so it’s probably wise to hurry and not wait for the deal’s final days to make your purchase.
