The see-through Beats Studio Buds Plus are more than 40 percent off for Presidents Day

If you like the way AirPods work with iPhones but want something more colorful and flexible, the Beats Studio Buds Plus are a good compromise. They’re platform-agnostic and are on sale for $99.95 ($70 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, Target, and Walmart for Presidents Day. The deal includes the eye-catching translucent option and is just $10 less than the buds’ best price yet.

Unlike Apple AirPods, the Beats Studio Buds Plus work well with iOS and Android devices, which is why they’re one of our favorite wireless earbuds. You don’t get all the benefits of the ecosystem, but you do get many essential elements. Apple iPhone owners, for example, get hands-free Siri, Find My support, one-step pairing, and Control Center integration. You miss out on AirPods-exclusive features like automatic device switching and spatial audio head tracking, but in exchange, Android users get native support for Google’s Find Hub platform, Fast Pair, and audio switching.

Aside from the software benefits, the Beats Studio Buds Plus also sound great and offer good noise cancellation that works well, although it’s not as impressive as the AirPods Pro. The tiny wireless earbuds are also some of the most comfortable you can buy. Beats includes four interchangeable ear tips for a more secure fit. It’s a shame they don’t have wireless charging, but they can last up to 9 hours on a single charge, with up to 27 hours total with the case. Additionally, they offer IPX4 water resistance, allowing them to withstand sweat and light rain.
