With the arrival of the new Beats Fit Pro headphones, I assumed we would see nice discounts on the earlier, less feature-rich Beats Studio Buds, which cost $ 150, just $ 50 less than the new Beats Fit Pro. at $ 200. I predicted we might see their price drop to $ 100 and sure enough that is what their price is now (and a new low).
The Beats Studio Buds are a lot like the Rodless AirPod rumors that people were talking about but never materialized – as AirPods anyway. Aimed at iOS and Android users, they lack a few key features on the Apple side (there’s no H1 or W1 chip), but they’re small, lightweight headphones that are comfortable to wear and sound good. They fit nicely on most ears, including mine – I run with them no problem – but others may find a better fit with the Beats Fit Pro and their built-in wing tips.

The Sony WH-XB910Ns are a great budget option for noise canceling headphones. They offer up to 30 hours of battery life and can support two Bluetooth connections simultaneously for almost effortless switching between devices. They have been named one of our favorite pairs of Sony headphones of this year.
Acer
The Acer Chromebook is a great blend of durability, portability, and affordability. It has 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, so it’s great for browsing and working online, but not too much. And with 15 hours of battery life and weighing just 0.74 pounds. It’s great for doing work on the road.
