First, you must check the latest firmware for Beats Studio Pro. Typically, the Beats Studio Pro arrives with the pre-installed 2B68 version, which is not the latest OTA update.

As for the moment of writing this, there is one OTA update 2C301, released after the pre-installed version

So, check which is the latest firmware and then, based on your device, check the Beats version!

1. Check Beats Firmware on Androids:

To check the current firmware on your Beats Studio Pro when using an Android, open the Beats app, head to “My Beats”, and go to “Under the Hood”.

There, you will see the current firmware version number on your headphones.

2. Check Beats Firmware on IPhone/iPad:

Open the “Settings” app on your iPhone or iPad, and tap the name of your Beats (located at the top above all menus and settings).

Then, scroll down to the “About” section and check the current version number. 

3. Update Beats Firmware on iMac/MacBook:

Once the Beats Studio Pro is connected to your iMac or MacBook, go to the “Apple Menu” → “System Settings” and click the name of the Beats through the sidebar.

This is where you can see the current firmware version of your headphones.

How to Update Beats Studio Pro Firmware? – (Android, iPhone & Mac)

Updating your Beats Studio Pro is fairly straightforward, but the exact steps and process vary based on the device you’re using.

In most cases, you’re dealing with an Android, iOS, or macOS device, so we have prepared a complete tutorial for updating Beats Studio Pro on each system.

Update Beats Studio Pro on Android

To update the firmware of your Beats Studio Pro through an Android device, you’ll need to have the Beats app installed on your device.

So, let’s walk you through the chronological instructions.

1. Install & Set Up the Beats App

Since you don’t need the Beats app to use your Beats Studio Pro, you may not have it installed, hence, that should be your first step towards updating the firmware.

You can quickly get the Beats app through the Google Play Store on your Android.

Here’s how to download the Beats app on your Android:

If you can’t download the Beats app due to regional restrictions, refer to the Beats support article on downloading the Beats app manually.

Note: If you have previously installed the Beats Pill+ application on your phone, you must first remove it to install the Beats app.

2. Add Headphones to the Beats App

The next step is to link your Beats Studio Pro to your Android device!

First, you need to turn on your Beats Studio Pro by pressing the System button on the right ear cup.

Then you can either follow the Beats app “Fast Pair” instructions or head to the Bluetooth menu of your Android phone and tap the wireless profile of your Beats Studio Pro headphones.

You need to have your Beats Studio Pro wirelessly “connected” to your Android smartphone!

Tip: If your Beats Studio Pro won’t appear in the Bluetooth menu of your phone, press and hold the “System” button for ~3–4 seconds to put them in “Pairing Mode”.

Update Beats on your Android

When you have the Beats Studio Pro connected to the Beats application, it’s time to learn how to update the Beats Studio Pro firmware.

You can update the firmware by going to the “Under the Hood” section.

There, you should see the firmware version number, and an “Update” button that you would be able to tap, only when there is an update available. 

You can also enable the “Allowed in the Optimize Your Beats Product” to keep your Beats Studio Pro automatically updated.

Note: To perform an update, your Android device must be connected to the internet.

Update Beats Studio Pro on iPhone/iPad:

Updating your Beats Studio Pro on an iOS-operated device such as an iPhone or iPad is 100% automatic, as long as your headphones are connected.

Again, your iPhone/iPad must be connected to the internet for your Beats Studio Pro to update!

1. Connect your Beats Studio Pro to iPhone/iPad:

First, press the “System” button to make sure that your Beats Studio Pro is working, and then, on iPhone or iPad, you must go to the Settings → Bluetooth.

You must tap on “Not Connected” to connect the headphones. If you see “Connected,” then you are ready to go, so jump straight to the updating step.

Update Beats Studio Pro on iMac/MacBook:

Similarly to iPhones and iPads, when connected to an iMac or a MacBook, the Beats Studio Pro updates firmware automatically. 

However, again, you need to ensure that the headphones are connected.

Connect your Beats Studio Pro to an iMac/MacBook:

To connect your Beats Studio Pro to an iMac or MacBook, you need to press the “System” button to turn them on first.

Then, head to the “Apple Menu” → “System Settings” → “Bluetooth” and choose your Beats Studio Pro to connect.
