I was interested in wireless earphones in order to be able to still listen to music while charging my iphone 8 plus that does not have a headphone jack, only a single lightning port. I started looking into options for Bluetooth headphones/earbuds, so that I didn't have to wait in silence while my phone was charging. I figured that Beats were pretty well known and decided to try them out.
These ear phones have great sound quality and long battery life, but they are not very comfortable to wear more than 2/3 hours at a time. It's not the ear gels that are the issue, there are three sizes to choose from and the medium one fits the best for me. It is more the the part of the device that holds the ear gel and lays in the ear.
These are a little on the expensive side due to the brand name.
Sound Quality: 4
Comfort: 3
Battery Life: 5
Despite the discomfort this is a good device, but I doubt that I would recommend this to a friend.

Beats delivery of sound has been great and battery life per change works as advertised.
I would buy them again and I will, Going to buy a pair for a friend. With age we don’t hear well and need help to hear TV. at night, not to offend others.
That’s why I bought them myself. Thank you Best Buy for recommendation to fit me with a product that works well and easy to use.

The reason I bought the earphones with the cord is because the battery is good for up to 12 hours. I am older and do marathons so I need my music and Runkeeper app for at least 6 hours- the wireless earphones I believe have a much less battery life.
My iPhone pods fall out of my ears but the Powerbeats are secure around the ear.

I had the original Powerbeats and the battery lasted about 5-6 hrs. These the battery last more than twice and feel more comfortable than those. The bass is less pronounced than the original ones, even when changing the eartips to different ones. It’s a snap to pair with the iPhone or Apple Watch, which is also a plus.

Always looking for a pair of wireless earphones that stay put when working out. These fit perfectly, are plenty loud/clear enough, the battery life is amazing, easy to pair with any device and priced right. I liked mine so much I purchased a pair for my wife..... since she stole mine pretty quickly.

I bought these for the gym, they blast music. And my AirPods were not doing any good for me. Well
since you know the way things are going right now. I have only used them at work/ home. They are amazing, the sound quality is great. They don’t pop out of my ears. I like that I can actually hear the BEATS to my music, unlike my plain AirPods.

Is a battle brewing in your house because one person needs the tv volume at a much higher level than another person? Get these to restore peace! My parents purchased a smart tv this year and the headphones my father had been using were incompatible from a technology standpoint. We bought these after an inexpensive wireless earphones stopped working after a very brief period of use. The earphones are blue tooth connected to the tv as an second sound source. He can adjust the volume to whatever level he needs to be able to hear the tv and my mother is not forced to endure the high volume he needed. We went with the earphones that are connected to each other so ensure if one falls out of his ear, the cord will keep it from being lost. If you know of a household undergoing the volume war, purchase these. It was well worth the money to resolve the issue.

My partner absolutely loves it! Loves that it's sweat and water resistance. Loves the long battery life. And loves that is hands-free/wireless but it won't fall completely given the cable holding two ear pieces together. It is also overall harder to loose.

Great for workouts and stay in place. Good battery life so far. Got these to replace Bose headphones that were ill suited to running and even exercise bikes. These go over the ear and so have no problem staying in place. The buttons for volume and changing tracks are easy to reach/feel. Very happy with these so far.

You get the same audio quality as the Powerbeats Pro with a wire on the back of your neck. You get better battery life than the pros and a substantial savings on initial investment. If you absolutely need a true wireless buy the pros, otherwise these sound great and you’ll save some cash.

These r the best headphones I’ve ever purchased. They are super comfortable and come with 3 different size earbuds so you can find the perfect fit for yourself. The sound quality is amazing. It’s like you are in the recording studio with the artist. Easy to use also. I’m so happy I purchased these.

The first pair I got were defective and I returned them. They stopped playing whenever I turned my head in less than a day. The sound is fair, if you are expecting Bose sound, you will not be happy with these. My 10yo Bose buds sound much better. I bought these because earbuds don't fit well in my ears and I lose them if there is no tether. Battery life is OK. I do not think these are going to last a long time. They seem pretty fragile. They are very easy to pair with iphone. The controls are well placed and easy to use. People say I sound fine when I answer the phone so the microphone is pretty good. If I thought I could get something better for the money, I would return them.

Older Version is Better

This is my fourth set of Beats by Dre. My first pair wouldn't charge after a few days of ownership so returned under warranty and received a new pair. That one had the microphone go out after a little over a year. I used them as is and purchased a new pair when they came on sale. I had the same thing happen with the third pair after a while with the microphone going out. I filled out a review of Best Buy and the manager offered me to buy them back and give me a Gift Card in that amount. I purchased a set of Galaxy Buds+ and LOVE them but the battery life is nothing compared to the Beats. This pair isn't quite as comfortable as previous versions, the bass isn't as deep and comfort is lacking a bit. I do like the 15-hour battery life though and it does make it through my 11-hour days of working.

They are way better than I expected. I though the over the ear set up would bother me but it actually is comfortable and reassuring knowing they wont fall out. The sound quality is the best I have heard but this is coming from someone who always bough less expensive wired headphones so these are a major upgrade.

The reason why I give this one 4 stars instead of 5 would be the comfort of the buds isn’t as comfortable as the version prior to this one. The buds push into my ear canal making it uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. As for sound and battery, I have no complaints.

I got personal attention when purchasing with a sales person that had experience with the product and vouched for their effectiveness in staying in place when running. It's wonderful that they sound good and stay charged for 6 hours, but I really cared about them not falling off. Fit the bill.

I bought these to use while running, and am delighted. They are rock steady in my ears, and the controls are easy to find and pretty intuitive. The Bluetooth pairing is easy and I have never had a dropout or messed up connection. Charging is easy, and uses a cable and chargers that I have already positioned all over the house for other devices anyway. I wanted earbuds with a connecting cord as I thought they would be harder to lose, but these have not yet fallen out. And the cord is not a problem. I have also not tested the microphone, I just wanted to listen to music from my watch, and am happy to leave the phone behind. These absolutely meet my needs.

Work great. Stay on. I tried every in ear true wireless earbuds. None would stay in while exercising. These work.
I like that they use the same charge cord as the iPhone.
The only issue is that they won’t pair with the fire tablet.
