are they fake or are the discontinued MOSTER PRO BEATS??

It depends on who you buy from. My product listing is the $400 retail headphone. (newest version) Henry (another reviewer) warns about buying from World Wide, then don' buy from World Wide. Mine are the actual headphone pictured and featured in current Dr. Dre commercials. :)

They are not fake. They are the real deal. I wouldn't have them if they were fake. I don't know if Monster has discontinued them (maybe). I know you can still buy them retail. (For a lot more)I hope I've helped. :-) -Emma

The headphones are not fake. But they are not the same headphone offered by Amazon.com as Pro beats $399.00 (most current model) They are Monster Pro by beats. They should actually show an M logo on the picture but don't because they apparently want people to think they are just like the model being sold by Amazon.com. The Monster Pro beats have been discontinued. A good headphone but not worth $309.00. They sell for around $200-250 elsewhere.

I just received a pair today, 11/12/14, and I can say with absolute certainty that these are not the Samsung headphones that came with my mobile device. They feel fake and sound cheap. I'm returning them immediately and ordering directly from Samsung. $30 is worth it.

yes they are! if you see reviews on YouTube there's lots of old reviews on the older beast saying that they break easily..the new beats however are made with different material that's very resistant..technically "unbreakable"you WILL get the latest model

Mostly likely they are real. I watched reviews on YouTube and the packaging was the same thing. But I don't know if the seller is secretly selling used ones and listing them as new.

Forget it , it's a kind of chinese copy and has nothing to deal with the original, I bought one and returned it 2 days after. This model PRO-4AA is out fabrication since a long time, try to buy a second hand one with ebay the sound of the original is wonderfull and it's my favourite headphone, it's not so comfortable for the ears but it's nothing regarding the quality of sound.

It's hard to tell if they are genuine "Monster" headphones only due to the fact that they are discountinued on their actual website BUT they are quality ear buds. Mine are still working (the gift is still working I should say) and this was purchased two years ago.

They are more like rebranded headphones. Not like any beats that you can get at a store. However , unfortunately I didn't get any headphones when I purchased my sensation xe.

I thought the same thing, so I emailed 66 audio to see if they were indeed the same. They responded very quickly stating that the Soundbots were knock offs made to look like their product, but using inferior bluetooth and sound components. This appears to be true as these are BT 2.1 and the 66 audio ones are 4.0. One of the main complaints in the comments in these is signal dropping, while the 66 audio has very little complaint regarding that. I suppose you take a chance with whatever you buy when you can't try things out first, however, 66 audio claims that they are not the same, and that they are in fact currently in litigation with Soundbot over the issue.

I bought these for my son. He has the HD solo headphones that I got from Best Buy. I ordered the lebron powerbeats for his birthday from amazon. They did come with all the paperwork and appeared to be legit. My son said that they have great sound too. I will be greatly disappointed if they are fake.

Do you still need this info? I just read this question I apologize for the delay. I had a bad experience with purchasing these ear buds. I definitely think some of these sellers are shady. I ended up going to best buy after the beats fell apart a month of having them.they would not refund or send a replacement pair.

A couple days ago (August 2014) Amazon seems to have restricted this listing to just the genuine Bose pads. Before they did, I bought mine from Accessoriesplus on this page. They were $5 cheaper and didn't charge sales tax. I'm 80% sure they were authentic. If you buy the ones that are fullfilled directly from Bose, then you can be 100% certain that they are legit, but you'll pay more for them. The other thing you could consider is buying one of the $7 or $8 pairs of obvious knockoffs. Then you'll have no doubt about their authenticity. I haven't gone that route yet, but plan to next time.

I don't see any authentic PX100 [original/classic] anywhere on the web or fleabay now. If anyone knows of authentic, let me know. and for you who use them, know them, know the competition - what's the alternative?I use mine for live sound - i'm a bassist and occasional guitarist - these work so stinking well with my personal mixer.... incredibly clean, do not color, efficient yet will not clip unless stupidity sets in.

Actually the person I bought these from sold fake ones to me !! So be careful ! If the price is too good to be true DO NOT BUY THEM!

Hi Alex.. Well I think so..put it this way they are the closest I've found in my hunt to the originals however I've noticed the holes are actually smaller...not sure how it actually affects the sound as the do stretch to go over the ear piece. Hope this helps. I do like all of the sizes...so maybe you can make them work. Bummer that beats doesn't just tell us how to get their originals...perhaps there was a design flaw in the originals though...

These are the legit beats, bought three pair from two different sellers and they were all beats by Dre. The sound is awesome, very clear, loud with a lot of bass. We are loving them. Hope this helped.

If the seller is Amazon, Apple, Monster Audio or Beats, then they are not replicas.(Beats Pro / Solo2 owner)
