    I was hesitant about going cordless as I'm constantly listening to my music however that being said with their long battery life I rarely have to charge them. The sound is high quality put out by these earbuds and they stay put in my ear. I have no regrets shelling out the money for these earbuds. My one wish is that you could either wirelessly charge or have the ability to charge them via the same port style of your phone i.e. USB for android or lightning for apple just to have one less cord lying around.

    The sound is great and there is no way these headphones will come out of my ears, they fit really well. I use them for my treadmill and weightlifting workouts. Wireless is definitely a necessity for weightlifting.

    My husband asked for new earbuds for Christmas. He described what he was looking for. Something great for working out, good sound quality and something that wouldn’t fall out while running. The other requirements Bluetooth and great sound. He has used them daily since he got them and says they are just what the doctor ordered. I would not have purchased them at full price but the sale price for Christmas made them the perfect gift.

    Beats are good headphones, trust me, but they definitly aren’t worth the original price. I got these on Black Friday for my son and he really likes them. Good sound quality, comfortable, and good Bluetooth range.

    So I bought this as a gift for Father’s Day, and my dad loves them! I tried them out as well, and I’d have to say, the sound quality is great! I was a little sceptical at first because they’re not over the ear (which in my opinion has better sound quality). My dad enjoys working out with them as well, he says they don’t fall out, which is always a plus. And they’re light weight which is beneficial. Great product! **syncing them to his phone was extremely easy!

    After cross-training with this headset for 2 months it is still fully functional with all of the buttons working. Soaked in sweat. sounds still great. Most important thing is that it stays on my ear without any

    These were a big purchase for someone who never spends money on technology, and I am in love! I've always had issues with ear buds staying in my ears, and and these are the only ones that have ever stayed put. They stay through every workout - 5+ mile runs, jumping rope, push ups, burpees, weight lifting, everything. The sound quality is great, and so is the battery life. They charge up quick, so even if you run low all it takes is 15 minutes or so to get a workouts worth. Definitely reccomend.

    These earbuds are amazing by far. The new W1 chip apple includes in these earbuds make connecting to your iphone seamless, jus turn them on and there instantly connected. These buds pack a 12 hour battery on a full charge and i find that to be true to statement. The sound quality produced from the buds are phenomenal!! While these buds produce a lot of bass i never find it drowning anything else out. Love these buds and definitely recommend to anyone looking for great sounding pair of bluetooth earbuds.

    As someone who is used to buying $10 earbuds at the check out counter at department stores, I decided to treat myself this time and boy, was it worth it! I chose these for the wireless function but I also chose them because they had a wire running in between the ear buds and I felt like it would be too easy to lose one without that if it just fell out. The sound is great, love love these!! Highly recommend!

    Either at the Gym, or at home, these are worth it. You won’t get mind-melting audio, but you get a much better sound than most earbuds. My biggest problem with earbuds in the gym were the fit and the tinny sound quality. Powerbeats do not suffer from this. Also, I’ve accidentally ran mine through the wash twice, and still work perfectly after a night in a bowl of dry rice. The battery lasts roughly 8 hours so you won’t have to worry about charging so much.

    I like these Beats very much! The sound is amazing and I like that these came with 3 different sizes of the ear plugs. The only problem I have is that I have very long hair almost to my waist and I have pull my hair up in a bun or the cord gets pulled by my hair but this is not a deal breaker for me. I do wish the control/volume/mic for talking and play/pause was a little bit lower down on the cord.

    Lightweight, great sound and most important for me, stays attached to my ears, not constantly falling off like most do with my apparently hard to fit ears. I just wish there was a way to track battery level.

    Amazing Sound, Questionable Durability

    I exercise 5-6 days per week and hands down the most critical piece of equipment that will either make or break my workout is my headphones. They've got to be wireless, stay in my ears and sound amazing. After going through my fourth pair of Jaybirds (Two pairs each of Bluebuds and X2's) I ended up giving these Powerbeats3 a shot as the X2's were discontinued and no local Best Buy store had any inventory of the new Jaybird X3's. I generally have stayed away from Beats for a few reasons: 1) Unnecessary price markup given the cost/value of competitors. 2) I can't get the Best Buy protection plan since the warranty is serviced through Apple. Which, by the way, doesn't offer AppleCare on these which doesn't give me a lot of confidence in protecting my investment. As you can imagine, I've relied heavily on the protection plan over the years to avoid the lengthy exchange process and aggravating downtime when dealing with the manufacturer directly. The simplicity of Best Buy protection plan exchanges are the very reason why I don't buy consumer electronics anywhere else. Luckily for me, these failed within my two week return window so I dodged the bullet. I had these Powerbeats3 for 11 days. During those 11 days I ran 7 times, twice in the rain, and during every workout I was sweating profusely (That's the point, right?). Starting on day 8 my music would randomly pause, skip or the volume would randomly adjust. By day 10 the inline controls stopped working all together. Sound was still great, but the user experience was beyond annoying. I called support, tried doing the reset/re-pairing, etc, but the inline controls just flat out broke. I took them back today hoping that the Jaybird X3's would be in stock, but sadly they weren't so I'm going to cross my fingers that I got a lemon and give a new pair of Powerbeats3 one more shot. In summary, these sound great but not enough to justify the $50-70 markup over Jaybird X3's and Bose SoundSport's. As an iPhone, iPad and Nike+ Apple Watch Series 2 owner, the W1 chip and iCloud device pairing is cool, but again not enough to justify the markup. They stay in my ears just fine, but so did the Jaybird's. In the end, I just want a great pair of wireless workout headphones that sound great and can take a beating. Several hundred dollars later the search continues...
