Just curious, I'm one that never uses any headphones other than when I was competitively playing CSGO many years back. As of recent Beats headphone suddenly intrigue me and I wonder what's all the "hype" or what's all about it ?

In general, why do people buy Beats other than probably the fact they are rich and they just wants to get it ? Is there any practical reasons why it's worth to buy wireless headphones ? For example I get a iPhone because it's a phone and I can afford it, and I need that phone, but as for wireless headphones, what's the thing that makes people go for it ?

Beats has the strong marketing from Apple so it feels cool. Packaging nice. Having it gives status. People don't always want best, but they want sth that make them look good.

I see, but if i'm not wrong, beats is wireless and using bluetooth to connect to iPhone right ? If so, iphone's music now require us to pay, if wan to download music have to use 3rd party app ?

I don’t know if you are trolling or you are plain ignorant.

How you stream your music on Android is the same as how you stream on iOS. Simple as that.

They are a known brand. People may buy Beats because they don't know which other brands exist, and which to buy from. Brand recognition. If you are wearing Beats, it will appear to others that you have money to waste, meaning that you are wealthy.

I own a Beats Solo 8years back then. During that time Beats are not popular in Malaysia but it was a symbol of trend back then at other country.

It was gifted and im not so into audio industry that moment the reason my gf picked it was because of the looks.
