Amazon's Big Spring Sale has a number of different headphones on discount. You can pick up options from a host of companies and brands, including JBL, Shokz, Sennheiser, and Sony. But if you're in the market for a new pair of Beats, especially an on-ear pair of headphones, take a look at the Beats Solo 4. Amazon currently has these discounted by up to 40%, depending on the color, meaning you can pick them up for as low as $119.99.

According to Beats, Solo 4 can run up to 50 hours in between charges. When they do die, you can plug them in for 10 minutes for five hours of audio playback. They support spatial audio with head tracking, which, with the right music or movies, can create the illusion of 360 degree surround sound. Beats says that the Solo 4 also come with "upgraded drivers" and "rebalanced acoustics," so these likely sound a bit better than your older pair of Beats.

Like all Bluetooth headphones, Beats work with all major platforms, including iOS and Android. But since Apple owns Beats, these are particularly useful within the Apple ecosystem. When you turn on the Solo 4 for the first time, it'll trigger an automatic pairing sequence with your iPhone. Once set up, you can switch between your devices, and your Solo 4 will follow suit. I find it useful with my AirPods for listening to movies and shows on my Apple TV, and switching back to my iPhone to watch a video a friend sent over.

Perhaps the biggest feature the Solo 4 are missing is Active Noise Cancelling, which is perhaps because of the design. These are on-ear headphones, which means, of course, they rest on your ears. It's a bit of an iconic design for Beats, but it might not be for everyone. If you prefer an over-the-ear headphone style, you might want to consider the Beats Studio Pro instead, which are also discounted for Amazon's Big Spring Sale and come with noise cancellation. Beats Solo 4 are less expensive, though, so that's something to keep in mind.

As of this article, the Black & Gold and Metallic Pink colors have the biggest discounts. You can pick up the Solo 4 in Cloud Pink, Matte Black, and Slate Blue on sale, but for $149.95. That's still a decent cut from $199.95, but if you don't care about the color, you can save another $30 going with the other two options.
