3D rendering or picture? Beats headphones

[mettes]

Hi,

How do you think the packshots of the Beats headphones are made?

Is this a 3D render or a picture that has been photoshopped? Has this been made with Keyshot?

We had some renders of our product made by an Keyshot expert. You can check our product and renders here

We're looking to make our renders more photo realistic like the Beats headphone packshots. Do you have recommendations for companies/freelancers who are really good at this?

Thanks,
Maarten

They are not photos. They are 100% rendered 3D models (like all products featured on Apple's websites and packaging). Last I saw, they were using Modo (https://www.foundry.com/industries/design-software/dmax-imaging)  but you could absolutely make product shots like those in KeyShot.

Skullcandy used KeyShot for their headphones:

And since that is the case, I'm left to assume they used KeyShot for this as well (although I can't be certain). Either way, it's 3D:
