Here are two quick ways to manually turn noise canceling on or off on your Beats Studio 3 headphones.

How to turn noise canceling on or off on your Beats Studio 3
There are two ways to turn the active noise cancelation (ANC) on or off. The first is clicking the power button on the right ear cup twice. This is the only button on the right ear cup, so it should be easy to find and double-tap.
The second is by using the actual Bluetooth settings app on iOS. If you are using Android, you can toggle ANC within the Beats app, which you can download for free from the Google Play store.
As for the noise cancelation quality, our friends over at SoundGuys concluded that the headphones were passable but not great. Thankfully, the cumulative effect is decent because the Beats Studio3 Wireless is pretty good at physically blocking noise from entering your ears. You can read the full review here.
