I really appreciate people who try to help others fix their damaged electronics, the only problem is this is a lot more complicated than I thought and I don't have the required tools or skills to repair these things and the panels are so busted up the headphones are almost unusable.

Followed your videos for both Right and Left panels. Hardest part was soldering those tiny wires all next to each other, but I successfully did it! Thanks for the tutorial.
Thank you very much for this Repair Tutorial - I used this tutorial and repaired my pair of Beats Studio 3 that had a similar crack on both inside and outside panel. Appreciate you putting this out there. 🙏🏼
Thank you for such an informative video. As an owner of the studio 3 Special Edition Shadow Grey, I have learnt that these headphones need to be well maintained and most parts are based on screws and adhesive.
Fantastic video! I have hairline cracking on the inside panel after 7 years. That said--- looks like I'll have to be using tape after seeing this open heart surgery lmao!
Thank you very much for this fantastic tutorial. I must say these headsets are very bad quality for the amount of money they cost. Mine broke twice, once under warranty and once out of warranty. One more little piece of advice: on the micro USB connector the two red cable are not interchangeable, so don't mix them up. Found this out the hard way ;-)
@Christian Bahr Hey man I am having a lot of trouble re-soldering my wires together. I am a beginner at soldering and don’t understand what isn’t being connected. Do you mind if I email you pictures of what I have done, so that you can inform me on what I have to fix?
Is it possible to remove the outer cushion that sits between the outer hard shell and the inner piece? I have a red and white pair and would like to switch colors. I have switched the main pads but the outer pads are still red.
Do you know anyone locally that would show me in person if I paid them for the repaid. I have the parts. Im just struggling with the whole process on TH-cam
@@Joesge forgive my ignorance, I’m a industrial maintenance technician and process engineer. I have not taken this device apart. But why would I need to solder still? Anything I see coming off the board I would rather leave alone, so in I have the wire to spare why not heat shrink solder? Most people watching this video can’t micro solder de solder or solder. Would it impair the product if it was done another way even if it at a solid connection?
Just did it! With mostly success. I had to leave all the screws a bit loose, because when i tightened them there was a loud vibrating noise when i make it tight, and when i loosen it goes away, any idea as to what it could be? it speaker related i think
Help needed, i have it wired back to where it is charging however the speaker itself is not working. Can you please help with how the blue wire is connected

Now I’m a little paranoid, I’ve had my beats studio 3 for about 3 years now and they are still in perfect condition, not even a scratch yet. Now you have me worry that they will crack out of nowhere.
Mine broke… shattered… I’ve babied them and no one else has used them. I don’t fold them, don’t travel with them, they sit right on my desk or they’re on my head.
I just replaced the right panel and got everything back together. Unfortunately, it charges, but the right speaker does not work. Any hints on troubleshooting? Does it have to be one of the two speaker wires, or could it be one of the five small pins? It looks like the bluish wire connects to the left most contact, and the red and black, braided wire connects to the farthest right, but I couldn’t quite tell from the video. Many thanks!
Hey there, thank you for the video! I bought my device reconditioned and there is glue absolutely everywhere including over the soldering once I saw this it kind put me off. Scared to make it worse. Is it possible to send the device with all the parts that need to be changed?

So I attempted to do this with your parts. Now I get the white lights blinking then a red light then the white lights and this repeats prob 3 times. Any ideas?
I noticed you don't use flux or any additional solder when soldering. I've never done this before. Are just using the solder that's already on the charging port/speakers?
Hi Just want to ask if you guys still do repair's and if so how much will it be if the damage is left and right inner panel will be replace juat want to know

My left earcup is nice and movable where rubber part connects to the side pannel but at my right side i noticed it was a little stiff, i jiggled the right side a bit to see if the rubber could be loosened a bit but then the whole outside pannel began to let loose from the inside pannel from the bottom al the way up to the hinge. Is this a common problem, and is there a way to stick it back together without tearing the whole thing apart.
I had my studios for 2 months and the inside panel broke, same as the solo 2 that I had, I think that I am doing something wrong with beats headphones.
@@Joesge Thank you for your reply. I got them used, but I think it was my last Beats, I will try to find another brand with better material quality. Do you have some recommendation? I buy them used because I can not afford a new one.
What connection is shown at 13:52 with the rubber? A red wire connects to it. I was replacing my battery and accidentally ripped the wire out of the soldering. Do I just solder it back to the little circular piece?
I've got the Beats Studio3 wireless. They won't charge anymore unless I hold them and myself in extremely awkward positions..which is, in my opinion, super awkward Honestly I haven't been able to get any charge whatsoever for a few months, so just started looking at the price for new ones. . ..😲🥺 I didnt realize I could get Apple to repair the headphones directly, so I am also looking into that. My questions are; A: Do you think it's just in need of a soldering repair? And if so; 2: Is it an easy enough fix if I follow the detailed steps you posted above? P.s. I love Russian people!! 😂😉😂😂
Joe...Great video. Helped me replace the inner pieces on my Beats Studio 3. I was wondering what soldering iron and heat gun you use. I've been researching buying one and can't seem to find one that is small like the one you used in this video around 06:29. All the ones I have seen online are all those huge ones you use for drying paint. Please advise. Thanks.
I have beats studio 3. the inside panel is broken left and right. the problem is the parts is not available in my country philippines. if I order parts from other country it's a little bit expensive for me. hahahaha I really want to fix it.
Is there Anybody that I could speak to personally, I would like to have a guaranteed that my headphones will be fixed and there will not be any differential in the sound quality
its really annoying how they decided to put out these headphones with awful build quality but then also made it such a struggle to replace some plastic
I need help, I’m not sure how my beats broke and exactly what’s wrong and I don’t what to tear them apart. By where the 5 light charging things it opened up and 3/4 red clip things broke. Please reply

th-cam.com/video/HGPu1-QUmEE/w-d-xo.html
Why unsolder? Could you not clip the wires and mend them with heat shrink wrap with a heat gun?
10x the work, plus you would have to still solder the wires back together. Most likely would end up needing a new main internal wire.

They absolutely will break. They are garbage, last beats product i will ever buy.
WD-40 can help with the plastic cracking, WD-40 makes the plastic more bendy.

Just the way they designed them. Companies don't mind it breaking every year because they want you to buy new ones.

how do u remove the actual earphone from the metal part ?
Once all the wires allow, you have to slide down the inside panel to remove it from the outside panel. Its on tracks that slide in and out.
I had my studios for 2 months and the inside panel broke, same as the solo 2 that I had, I think that I am doing something wrong with beats headphones.
Just gotta take really good care of them. They will eventually break from stress fractures.
