The Beats Powerbeats Pro in Ivory deliver secure-fit comfort with sweat and water resistance, Apple’s H1 chip for seamless connectivity, over 24 hours of battery life, and powerful balanced audio—perfect for sports and active lifestyles
A: Unfortunately, I've had the connectivity issue that the others described as well. The right earbud, and sometimes the left, doesn't work when I get to the gym to use. Therefore I'm always having to take my case with me and, forget device - recconnect to bluetooth. Its a major pain. I sent them back to Apple and they sent back saying nothing was wrong with them. I'm going to file another claim because its still doing it and has done this since day 1. Way too expensive to have this issue ongoing.
A: They are bluetooth, so you don't need the case to use them wirelessly. You can go look at some of the Youtube videos that the tech bloggers are posting. Idk why everyone is comparing the Powerbeats Pro case to Airpods. I'm an athlete, and I can appreciate putting my headphones in a case that I can throw in my gym bag and they will stay safe - while they charge. If the battery life is so long, why would you want to walk around with a case in your pocket anyway?
Q: Do you have to wear both in order for them to work?
A: No, you can wear one at a time
Q: Are they compatible with Android phones?
A: Yes it is compatible. You just won’t have the convenient instant connect feature that iPhones have.
Q: Can you wear glasses with these on.
A: Yes, you have to loop the headphones around your ear under the frame of your glasses.
A: A review that just came out said that calls were heard through both earpieces. Also commented that sound quality was great.
A: They go into sleep mode when you take them out of your ear regardless if they're in the case or not. Walking with them in your pocket doesn't "wake them up".
Q: How do these fit with glasses on?
A: Watch the YouTube video MacRumors put out on the unboxing of them. It shows him wearing these with sun glasses on and moving his head around. According to him, they feel fine and only a small area where the headphones and glasses touch or overlap, but nothing too crazy. Seemed like a comfortable fit to me. https://www.macrumors.com/2019/05/07/powerbeats-pro-hands-on/

Pros: - Very good music quality - Almost undetectable (nano-seconds) delay with videos - Good phone quality - almost as good as Samsung Buds Pro. - Light-press buttons, almost touch-sensitive Cons: - Lightning charging port, not USB-C - Ear loop is a bit big, not adjustable I had purchased the JBL The Rock Project earbuds before these. Those were great and fit very comfortably but the phone call quality was horrible. I returned them and got these and boy are they an improvement! The phone call quality rivals that of Samsung Buds and the music is very good with better bass than JBL and Buds. My only complaint is that the ear loop is a bit large. They sit fine on my ear and even during strenuous workout sessions, they don't fall out or anything, but you can clearly see the loop sitting with a gap at the top of my ear. My ear does start feeling a bit sore after a few hours of wearing them but I have very small ear canals so no points deducted there. Also, compared to the JBL earbuds, the button on these is very light. I felt like I was pushing the buds in too deep when pressing the JBL button but on these it's so light that the earbud doesn't move or feel pushed in. One more thing: I wear glasses and I've seen both good and bad reviews about using these with glasses. I've used them for the past two weeks and so far I have absolutely no issues. I run with them and it doesn't bother me at all. I guess it depends on what glasses you wear and how the ear loop sits on your ear. For reference, I wear Costa Forest Reef 300 prescription glasses. They sit flush at the crevice of my ear and head and the powerbeats sit on the outside of the glasses.

The Power Beats Pro offers impressive sound quality with a balanced, clean output that doesn't compromise on the bass. They are comfortable to wear, have a long battery life, and the added bonus of being sweat and water-resistant, making them perfect for workouts. However, they are a bit on the pricier side compared to other wireless earbuds.

These are amazing. I was looking for headphones that didn't feel cumbersome during my workouts and easy to use while at work. These checked both boxes. I really like the earband that holds them in place, I've used other earbuds that always slid out and this was part of the reason i chose this pair. The sound quality is great and they were easy to pair with my phone.
