What didn't you like about them? Fidelity, fit, other? I ask as one who hasn't tired them and more curious to hear your feedback. Thanks.

I've broken several Beats Studio headphones. When you extend the cups to the farthest point to fit a big noggin like mine, the joint is extremely weak and ends up breaking the plastic headband.

APM are metal! I love mine, but YMMV.

The Solo 3 models have particularly fragile hinges, and we’ve had a difficult time getting them repaired/replaced under AppleCare. No idea why  continues to sell them. ☹️
 
AirPods Max: damn near perfect but the fabric material in the cups can get annoying over time, smelly and they do feel heavy at times the way they can shift when you move your head up or down:

Solo Pro: the ear tong grip is an issue after an hour or two, you constantly feel the need to adjust them for comfort

Pricing on Beats: the Solos, Studios, etc, seem to be Apple’s value play as they are always on sale at third parties. True this is early for a massive discount but anyone who ever paid full price is a sucker!

Yes, this is me trying to justify to myself out loud why I pulled the trigger :)
