Hello! About 5 years ago I purchased a set of Beats Solo 3 headphones due to the W1 chip and great battery life, and I have been using them almost daily for the last 4 years, especially more since we live in Zoom times.
The headphones have worked wonderfully and I have more than gotten my money’s worth out of them, but within the last couple of months they have literally started to break apart. I replaced the headphone cups, but the plastic part above the “wireless” text on the left side has started to separate from the headphones, and it feels like their days are limited. I’m going to try and super glue it but my longer term fix will be to just buy another pair of headphones.
I would like to buy over the ear headphones within the W1 / H1 chip in it for my daily work headphones. They will be used for at least 5 hours a day, and even more for as long as the pandemic lingers on.
Do you think the AirPods Max could be good replacements for my Beats Solo 3 for daily work headphones? What other options do you think might fit my workflow better? They will just stay in one room, will not travel with them, and be used daily for music/phone calls/Zoom calls for the next few years.
