Beats by Dre Headphones

No more hunting under the sofa for a single lost earbud.

Why she’ll love it

There’s a particular kind of relief that comes with headphones you can’t lose one half of. I wear mine to the gym and on commutes, and the over-ear design has quietly solved a problem I’d stopped noticing I had.

The sound is what you’d expect from Beats, but the part that matters day to day is how they feel: substantial enough to signal you’re busy, comfortable enough to forget you’re wearing them. They look good, which shouldn’t matter and absolutely does when something sits on your head for an hour a day.

One pair, quite a few different parts of the week.

TRY IT FOR

At the gym: They stay put through a workout, and the sound is good enough to carry you through the part where you’d rather stop.

On the commute: Noise reduction turns a crowded train into something closer to bearable. The best forty minutes of the day, oddly.

Working from home: A visual signal to everyone else in the house that you’re on a call. Effective roughly eighty per cent of the time.

On a long flight: Over-ear comfort matters at hour six in a way it doesn’t at hour one.
