Not much to go on with what you posted, but here are some potential causes and fixes:


  • Check Bluetooth Connection - Disconnect, forget, and then, re-pair your Beats with your device.
  • Test With Another Device - See if this issue happens regardless of what device you have your Beats paired with. If the issue persists across devices, it's likely a hardware or firmware issue.
  • Check Audio Balance & EQ Settings on your device.
  • Reset Your Beats Solo3 - Hold the power button and the volume down button for about 10 seconds. When the LED flashes, release the buttons.
  • Check for Firmware Updates - If using an iPhone or iPad, your Beats firmware updates automatically. If using Android or a computer, download the Beats Updater from Apple’s website.
