Beats by Dr. Dre

Thanks to the sponsorship of huge athletes, major superstars and myriad recording artists, Beats by Dr. Dre launched itself into the music stratosphere. What started out as sleek headphones became a courtside staple. From there, singers proudly sported their Beats on social media, and when the headphones actually hit stores, they were nearly impossible to get. Now, the brand has expanded to include a rainbow of colors and a variety of models. The standby over-ear headphones are a perennial favorite, but new technology such as in-ear styles and around-the-neck options offer something to suit every taste. And it's not just about looks — Beats delivers on spectacular sound quality, too, keeping fans coming back for more.
