KIRF: Beats Tour earphones from Beats by Dr. Dre

My friend has one of these. I tested the quality and upon touching it I was convinced it was fake. He got it for Php800 and even had it registered in the Beats website. I was still doubtful so I put it in my ears. The music is horrible. My A4 tech in-ear headphones felt like an Apple product… :)

i bought the tour and solo hd in the states a few months ago for a fortune considering they cost as much as most decent mobile phones…then last week i bought the OEM’s of the tour and solo here…I was shocked! A little difference aesthetically but the sound quality…as a digital audio editor in profession..they are almost the same both in bass and treble measures…bwiset!

Found out these so called OEM are like win or lose..some sounded good while some like what my friend got sounded crap. Weird!

hit or miss. i tried 2. one sounded near orig while the other is terrible. OEM sound is ok, class A is not ok.

out of topic: HTC + Beats? magkano na kaya HTC phones? :(

for P500 (OEM) that sounds near orig, i’ll go for it. not to promote piracy, cost matters.

A friend bought one of these, through a buy&sell website. He paid 1.4K for this.

*And oh, the cables. They look like your average SATA Cables, lol

When my Apple earbuds started giving me static, I bought a pair of clip-on earphones from a stall in Ayala MRT as I was passing by. P150. Sounded much, much better than the Apple earbuds.

My friend bought the fake one last week for P500. She said to me that the seller explain to her the differences between the original and the fake one. The seller even let my friend tried his original Beats by Dre and found out that the quality of the sound was somehow the same.

I tried the fake one and it’s just like the same with my Nokia WH-205 headset, but yeah, with P500 it’s a good buy.

There is a store around greenhills shopping center near BDO. I think there selling originals. I just saw the name inside this Audio store. Its located in the ground floor.

I just hope wag magkaroon ng fake ang sennheiser and audio technica..

i just dont understand some people spending as much as 2k for an oem/class a/fake/pirated beats earphones when there are original a-jays as low as 2.2k… status symbol much? pathetic orcs..

i have nothing against those na gusto bumili at nagtitibda ng OEM or Class A..
karamihan ng nababasa ko almost same daw ang SQ?!
natural para bumenta ayun talaga sasabihin ng Seller..

nakakaasar lang kasi gadget nowadays ay ngiging status symbol,, like nitong Beats, di ko din kasi magets bakit napakamahal nito…
madami ka makikita nka beats tour or studio pero halata mo namng hindi legit.. mag ibang brand ka na lang na same price range at least your using legit,,mas prefer ko pa mag SKULL CANDY (LegiT) na lowrider with the price range of 2-3k, kesa that price range na Beats na OEM or class A

ndi naman status symbol, mga haters hehehe, kanya kanyang trip lang yan.. maganda naman tunog kht ndi legit, nasa tao nalang yan.. ndi naman lahat tayo eh mapera.. wala nalang pakialamanan, kung mapera ka at kaya mo bumili ng orig, bumili ka, wag kana magsabi pa ng kung anu2x..

bumili ako ng fake na beats ndi para sabihin na naka beats din ako, kundi dahil gusto ko yung quality ng sound nya,, yun lang.. ndi ako brand conscious, as long as pasado sa taste ko.

kya mga haters dyan at mga trolls.. walang pakialamanan hehehehe

bkt insecure kayo sa mga tumatangkilik sa beats kuno kung mapera kayo? kayo ata ang conscious sa status eh hahahahaha

it’s all about sound quality.. kht anung brand pa yan, legit or fake.. as long as ok para sau..

HOY TUKMOL AT BOY TOPAX…..KAHIT ANUNG SABIHIN NYO WALA LANG KAYONG PANG BILI NG ORIG KAYA FAKE ANG BINIBILI NYO. AMININ NYO NA YOU WANT THE THE ORIG BEATS PARA MA KA PORMA AT MAKA USO. MGA JEJEMON AT SQUATTER LAN ANG BUMIBILI NG FAKE…MGA WALANG PANG BILI KASI

hahahahaha galet oh, parang sya may beats na orig hahahaha FU ka :) inggit ka lang ata eh

tsaka FU anung paki mo, wala ka naman magagawa kung beats na fake este OEM yung bilhin namin..

cguro FU isa ka din sa:
Ganda ng kotse, panget ng driver…

dont brag na original yang binili nyo unless di nyo binili sa astroplus or power mac… baka napeke na kayo… sayang pera. hahahah. gusto ko ung JustBeats ni justin bieber… astig haha :)

kaya walang foreign investors sa pilipinas eh… the time na mag-release ng product, may counterpart agad na fake haha!

dami nga nagkalat ng fakes na beats and senns sa mga malls pati mga bose na headphone at iem hehe never tried the others but have tried my brothers fake beats thier sounds is on par or maybe slightly lower than free iem on mp3 players but they are no where near the same as the originals :) imo there are no oem beats just fakes and originals lang sa pa ka alam ko i think i saw some disassembled pictures of the studio beats and the chips used is not the same :)

Still not worth wasting Php 1000-3000. Prefer Bluetooth headset of Hisense and Jabra Music Edition they got good quality and bass and mine still runs 9hrs. and they are both cheap both of them only cost Php 4000 real deal almost all Device works Like: iPad 1/2, Samsung Galaxy S/S2/Tab/Ace, Laptops, Blackberry, Nokia. So in General it can be done.

don’t be surprised Abe.
everything’s made in china now, so they could easily copy everything

Try nyo ang KOSS n headset, mura n at wlang peke. at audio quality d best! pra kng nka sub-woofer..
hindi nyo pagsisihan..

2thou plus s 5th ave. SM shops

@FU sabi nga ni cong.manny pacquiao,now you know,try one now.hehehe peace

Hindi tlga prehas quality nung tunog sa fake and orig. Promise. Only audiophiles know. But if you can’t see the difference, it’s ok. Yung iba nga di malaman pinagkaiba ng tunog ng regular earphone (tsangge / 100php ) saka beats na orig. ^^

Guys, di lahat merong pambili ng Orig na beats. Try spending that much on a headphone? It’s like spending a fortune. I’m sure na ung mga bumibili ng OEM na beats, gusto din ng orig. Pero wala lang pambili ng original. eto lang naman, wag natin ikumpara ang sarili natin sa iba. oks? :\

I’ve tried the Beats by Dr.Dre, over the head “‘Studio'” model(double quotes). It sounds good, but nothing special really. For the price it commands its over rated. Their mid-high end range models can fetch you a high end professional grade studio reference headsets like the AKG Quincy Jones model. And why pre-amp the headphones? All I hear there is “ear damage”. just my 2bucks.

My friend just came home from the US and he said they were giving away those earphones for free. That exact model. Maybe that explains why they sell it for free here?
