Customer Ratings & Reviews

As a huge fan of the original Powerbeats Pro, I was excited to get my hands on this latest iteration. Sadly, I think this is yet another swing and a miss from Apple. As soon as I fired up Apple music and played some of my favorite songs, I was honestly a bit underwhelmed. On the originals, I remember reading a lot of people thought they were bass heavy, but for the music I listen to, which is a lot of alternative and rock, I felt they were perfect, bass heavy songs get me dialed in for a workout. These ones don't have much bass at all, and when I crank up the volume to try and get some bass, the highs will blow your ears out and just wash everything out. The heart rate monitor seems to be accurate, but again, it seems like a missed opportunity for Apple. I thought, cool! I'll be able to start a workout on my phone maybe, and avoid having to wear my watch to record a workout, and get it all sweaty. Nope! As far as I can tell, you can't start a workout on your phone it would seem. Full disclosure, maybe you can if you have a subscription to Apple Fitness (I don't) but I couldn't start a general run or elliptical workout without my watch. You have to have other 3rd party apps to take advantage of that it would seem, which is strange that Apple wouldn't seemingly integrate that into their own fitness tracking? If you use some of those 3rd party apps frequently, this still might be a home run for you, but I don't, so it leaves me in a strange place wondering if I even need the HR monitor since I need to wear my watch anyways. I've heard others comment on turning off the settings, since these come with virtually everything active. Turning off spatial audio did seemingly help a little, but I still didn't feel like these sounded like a $250 pair of earbuds. It's strange, because a lot of youtubers are saying these things are fantastic, which has baffled me, because I just don't get it. I suppose we all have different ear sizes and music that we listen too, perhaps that's the reason, so I'd honestly recommend that you try them out, and see if they do work out for you personally. I do like the earhooks, and the wireless charging on the case is awesome, along with the strong magnets on the inside that'll snatch the earbuds from you when you put them in, and they don't feel like they'd go anywhere. The earbuds themselves stay secure, they're lightweight and comfortable to wear. While I don't expect them to be on the level of the airpod max, I was expecting them to have better range than what's offered here. Maybe we'll get some kind of an update that will make them sound a little better, who knows? Out of the box on release though, the audio isn't the greatest, it's kind of tinny sounding is the best way I can think to describe it, and for me, it takes my enjoyment of the earbuds away. They are secure though, so if you don't mind audio quality, these still might be great for you. All in all, I was left feeling a little disappointed to be perfectly honest. I see others have had a good experience though, so I'm glad to hear they work for some folks, they're just not my cup of tea, so I'd recommend you try them for yourselves, and be cognizant of the return date.

A good replacement for earlier model of PowerBeats. Good sound but still allows for situational awareness of your surroundings since they’re not “welded” to your ears.

My wife loves them. Says that they are generally an upgrade over her AirPods Pro 2 set that she was having some figment issues with. The included xs tips were right for her and while they took a little getting used to due to the wrap around changing some pressure in wearing once she got used them and found a comfortable position she has enjoyed them thoroughly.

The ear pods are comfortable and works well. Connects right away

Great fit. So light I can’t feel the ear hooks on my ear at all. The only reason they don’t get 5 stars is because the sound suppression is good but not great. I definitely recommend them.

This my second set. I had the original set which was good but a bit bulky. These are more slim. Sound quality is excellent. Best part, is that they don't fall off your ears.

I recently purchased these as open-box excellent and have also had Powerbeats 1 and Beats Fit Pro. This iteration continues the quality product line that Beats is known for. The sound quality is great, bass is acceptable, and the feel of the earbuds is on par with what you’d expect from Beats. I got a great deal on my pair, but was also ready to purchase them at regular retail pricing.

Great sound...nice battery life ...ergonomic fit...waterproof ...sweat proof ...comfortable...

Coming from the original version, this one is a pretty big step up from the last. More comfort and coming with more features like noise cancelling, this is an easy recommendation for anyone who liked the previous version.

How do you say headset it took me some to figure out how to maneuver and work them even though the headset has instructions it isn't make it extremely clear I like the product sounds good great comparison to my ears

I really love my earbuds. I’m a busy person constantly moving around. When I workout the stay in and using it for work makes things easier since I’m always on the phone. Fits good and doesn’t hurt my ears.

Good sound quality, really comfortable. Got it for my dad

Good sounds always, they have holding arms to the ears. They don’t fall off like other earphones. I like them more

Great fit and easy to use classic apple sound signature.

These ear buds are the best for running and working out! They don’t budge, even when super sweaty, and I can wear them for hours on end without ear pain. I’ve had them for 5 months and worn them for several hours each week, yet only ever had to charge them twice.

I’m really happy with the product! I especially appreciate how they feel and sound. Plus, I love that they stay put well.

These are the best noise canceling headphones I’ve ever had. They fit comfortably. I definitely recommend them.

If you sweat a lot I recommend getting these noise cancellation works better than iPods gen 2 I can compare it to those because those are the only ones worth comparing them too and also I don’t know if just an issue with mine but the location only works while in use. Had some connection issues but nothing too serious.

Best for workouts and running I’ve used to date! Sound is great and fits perfectly fine and never drops

Love this product, excellent color, great sound, and is great with canceling the noise.
