are there any good alternatives to the beats studio? I'm looking for a great punchy base, like the beats, modern stylish design, don't need to have active noise cancelling, passive is good enough - price range more or less the same. Android compatible if possible

Anything is technically "compatible" with Android. A smartphone outputs an analogue signal, not a digital. If you want good bass, I would recommend you try the Beyerdynamic Custom One Pros. A million times better, and they are extremely easy to drive off of a phone, iPod or similar.

Android compatible as in with a remote and with a mic? Or do you mean something else? There are not a lot of audiophile headphones that have mics and remotes; generally audiophile headphones have rigorous amping requirements which is normally mutually exclusive with mobile devices.

 

To be completely honest the best headphones out of mobile devices are IEMs since they are generally easier to drive.
