These are perfect for me. I have recommended them to 3 friends, they bought them and they are happy also! I bought a pair for my wife initially. I'm not a name brand guy, she is all about brand and trends. I wanted to buy the Jaybirds or Jabras. I read other reviews and was sold on the Jaybirds or Jabras. So I bought my wife the Beats. I tried them and instantly I WAS SOLD! You can't sample earbuds in the store so the other set I was going to buy would have been a gamble. After I borrowed her set I bought my own set! I use them EVERY DAY. I work in a carpentry shop. It's noisy and dusty. The Beats hold up to all the sawdust. I clean them every day. I workout in them after work. I literally use them 8 hours every day. I sweat like crazy when I workout they NEVER slipped out or were uncomfortable. On a side note, I like wearing the wires under the front of my neck instead of the back of my head. On the back when I turn to the right or left sharply I got an occasional skip. I dont know why. The front, under my chin is far better for ME doing deadlifts and squats at the gym. especially squats so the bar doesn't hit my wire. Also If I keep my phone (Galaxy S4) in my pocket and walk I get a random skip in my music sometimes. But all in all they're awsome!
REAL WORLD consumer specs:
Battery life- 4 hours Bumping hard
Distance - 30ft MAX best used in the from on you to about 20ft away
Sound- Excellent. People say they're bass heavy. I disagree, so does my wife and friends. Were just average consumers, Not audiophiles or whatever they're called in the reviews. If you download an app that lets you control your bass and treble to YOUR liking you'll even like the Beats more!
Connectivity- Simple.... after you figure out YOUR personal device if you've never used bluetooth before.
Durability- I punish these things! they have held up to sawdust, sweat and tons of use. I bought the extended warranty for both sets just in case. These things are bulletproof so far.
Buy Them, be happy and get the extended warranty so you can use them like they were meant to be used with no worries.

I did a fair amount of research before settling on the Beats Powerbeats2. The headphones are quite pricey, but I was fortunate enough to pick them on sale at Best Buy.
The headphones are lightweight and comfortable. The sound is good, although I was surprised that the bass wasn't stronger given they're Beats. Connecting them via Bluetooth was a breeze. On the downside, you do have to manually turn them off even if you disconnect from Bluetooth, and the battery only lasts for about 6 hours.

These sound great, charge fast, and stay put. I use the larger size earbud and don't have a problem. The bluetooth connectivity is also great--not sure how I worked out without these. iPhone 5s even indicates the battery level of the buds--my iPod nano does not. Only (small) drawback is making sure the other linked devices have bluetooth disabled when using.
Other drawback is a worry about cleaning. The Beats website isn't much help--I just want to make sure I'm keeping my ears clean and taking care of the product, I plan to have it a while.

Best Bluetooth Earbuds currently on the market

Best Bluetooth earbuds currently on the market if you're OK with the price. Sound quality is actually very decent and although a little too bassy (to be expected considering the brand) it's not actually too bad. I like that you can actually turn them off when you're done, some headphones on the market just timeout which is really annoying if you want to disconnect them from your device without having to turn off the whole Bluetooth. Also incredibly comfortable to wear and especially well-suited to working out

I decided to buy this because it was on sale for $99 on Black Friday, and I had trouble with my headphones constantly getting tangled with weights while working out. Love that I made that decision. I was a bit let down at first because the volume on the headphones were extremely low when I had the volume maxed out on my phone. However, after some toying around I realized that the volume controls on the headphones are separate from those on you phone. After a bit of tweaking the sound quality is absolutely amazing. It works just as well as the Over-The-Head Beats headphones, and being wireless is a huge upgrade from them. Would definitely recommend them to anyone that works out or is tired of cords getting tangled. The charge on them is really good to. I only have to charge once or twice a week and I work out 2-3 hours a day.

What a find. After hearing rave reviews from my friends, I decided I must get them. The comfort of the headphones is spectator and they will not fall out. The overall sound quality is good, with nice bass and some noise canceling effect. Callers are able to hear you clearly on the built in mic and the phone controls work great with the iPhone. Battery lasts 6 hours which is a few workouts and seems to charge very quickly. I love them and wouldn't workout without them!

Purchased during Black Friday at $99 - it's overall a good product, but I wouldn't purchase at full price, unlike my Bose over the ear Bluetooth.
Easy to charge, easy to store, withstands sweat well, stays on during strenuous activities, contacts have no problem hearing me when using during phone calls.
The sound, though, is okay to good, but great. It's acceptable at the sale price, but not the full retail price.

Easy to set up and use. Have used several times and have good, but not perfect Bluetooth connection. Fit is adjustable, and fit snugly around the ear. Sound quality is very good for a wireless headset, but seems best at about 80 percent of maximum volume. I purchased on sale at half the regular price-- for this price, these are great wireless earbuds; at full price, there may be better competing products available.

Absolutely fantastic. They fit very well and never come out your ears during activity at all. The battery life is exceptional and the sound quality is superb. You will not be disappointed in this product whatsoever. The only thing negative I would say is it is expensive. But I bought it on sale for $70 less than regular price. But if I had to buy it at full price it would be worth it because of the quality of the sound and being wireless is awesome.

This was a Christmas gift for my wife, she loves it. I tried them on myself and I was jealous and had to get one for myself. I got the blue ones. They are stylish but they deliver awesome sound and they stay on really good when running on the treadmill. Very comfortable if you prefer having the earpiece wrap around your ear. Yeah, price is little high but it was well worth it. Definitely recommend it, especially if you are a runner, jogger, and work out junkie....

I purchased these ONLY because Best Buy had a 1-day sale on these for $129. I would not purchase them at full price. I charged them and they instantly connected to my iPhone. No connectivity issues and no issues with performance. You do have to try all of the rubber tips to find the right fit. The largest tips maintain sound consistency the best, which I liked, but the next size down felt most comfortable. They do not move when running (or sprinting) and they are comfortable in my ears for long periods of time.
Now for the performance...I did not see too much difference in performance from my iPhone earbuds to the wireless Powerbeats2. I guess you give up a little performance with the wireless feature. I think it is a good mix of treble and bass and I never hear any distortion. It does have the multifunction remote, which works great. But keep in mind that this is wireless and the response is not as fast as a wired headset. Lastly, I prefer to wear the wire loosely under my chin instead of behind my neck. This way I never feel any tension when turning my head from side to side. However, this might be the case for all wireless earbuds.
Would I purchase them again? Yes, for $129. However, I would not spend $199 on these (that's just my price sensitivity level). Overall, this is a great, reliable and comfortable-to-wear set of wireless earbuds and performance is "on par" with others. I've only had them 1 week, so I can't give a rating based on durability. Better sound performance and I would rate this a 5.

Beats didn't even last a years and I didn't use even use them everyday. I put them in the case after every usage. Took them to Apple thinking I could get them replaced because it was under a one year warranty but it doesn't cover physical damage! The beats broke while there were in the case how is that my fault.

Build Quality - Excellent
Battery Life - Great
Comfort - Great
- Power button difficult to use as it's hard to locate by feel. Sometimes I have to take them off to locate the button. Once you find the button it's almost flush with the surface of the earbud so it's hard to turn the earbuds on/off without pressing the button really hard.
- There is a audible tone that can be heard when the Bluetooth connects and disconnects.
- There is no audible tone when the power is turned on or off. The only way you know if the earbuds are on/off is if you look at the power light on the earbud (which means you have to power them up before putting them on) or if the earbuds quickly connect to your Bluetooth device and you hear the audible tone letting you know that Bluetooth connected.
- There is no way to know how much battery charge is left unless you plug it into the USB port on your computer and run the Beats application. It would be nice if when you powered on the earbuds you heard an audible message play providing the percentage of battery life left. It would also be nice if it provided audible alerts when at different pre-defined intervals of the battery level such as 75%, 50%, 25% and 5% battery life.

These earphones are the worst quality not even considering the price. Just applied little pressure to the earphone part and the thing just broke. Do not understand how something this expensive can break this easily.

Not a huge Beats fan, but couldn't be happier that I got these. Initially was interested in powerbeats2 because of their slim design that fits right into your ear (whereas most other wireless brands had ginormous earbuds, and i have little ears). They are incredibly comfortable and don't fall out. The sound is great, pretty bassy and they get super loud. I almost returned them within the first week because the bluetooth would occasionally cut out, and i thought it was defect. But luckily I talked to someone who worked for Beats and he said to try wearing my armband on my left arm, not my right arm, because the bluetooth receiver is with the volume control in the beats cord on the left side. (he said it's very difficult for bluetooth to travel through the human body). Ever since then, I haven't had one issue. Battery lasts about 4-5 of my 1hour+ workout sessions. I sweat quite a bit, but it hasn't caused any problems. I recommend them to evvvveryone! Plus the colors are sweet. Makes my workouts so much better. So glad I got em!!

I use these for the gym and while biking. The bluetooth connects quickly and flawlessly so far. The fit is good and the design makes them very secure. Other buds I've had trouble finding the right fit, but these work better than others. The sound is very good, not too bassy, but still packs some low end punch. Great package and the included accessories are top notch.

The Beats by Dr. Dre - Powerbeats2 Wireless Bluetooth Earbud Headphones are awesome. I wear them when I go to the gym and workout. I sweat a lot and they don't slide off my ears. They are durable and lightweight. The sound quality is good and I have the capability to answer phone calls too.

I purchased these headphones for workingout at the gym. The range is more than adequate to leave my iPhone at the front desk and just wear the headphones at the different stations. Sound is great plus phone calls can be answered. Just had to try the different rubber ear inserts to find the most comfortable fit. Battery lasts plenty long! I highly recommend!!

I have to admit I was a little skeptical about buying wireless headphones. The reason is because of the Bluetooth connectivity. I must say I was totally wrong. The quality of sound of the wireless Beats are just as impeccable as having a direct connection to your device. The Bluetooth connects flawlessly to my samsung S6 and best of all, it also connects to my Samsung SmartWatch Gear S. I no longer have to carry my phone to the gym, because of the beauty of wireless that can connect to my smart watch and I can listen to my music directly from there. I am more than satisfied with this product and recommend it to anyone! They're super comfortable and super durable.They do not feel like they are so delicate they can break. The price was unbelievable and I feel lucky that I was able to take advantage of the sale when they were regularly priced for $200. Be on the lookout for the sale for $130.00 again and take advantage of these great headphones!

I've gone through many, many different kinds of headphones, none I loved, none that I felt fit me good, none that I've felt comfortable with or ones that didn't fall out of my ear or didn't make a popping noise when I tried to sing or dance or workout to the beat of my music. These headphones are amazing, I was really really nervous to buy them because of my past experience with other headphones, but this has definitely been the best buy ever!!!! They're a little pricey but totally worth it! I can work out in them, sing as loud as I want and not hear myself like other headphones and they're still comfortable. They are amazing!!!!
