    Although the sound quality is acceptable, it takes time to properly fit it in your ears and the right ear plug cord is longer than the left.

    I really only tried them for a VERY short period. I had to change the buds on them for 2 reasons, 1st- they seemed used, 2nd- I really needed a pair. I was grossed out at the thought of someone I didnt know having used them. AlthoughI changed the buds on them I couldnt stomach it. For the little bit I did wear them though they became uncomfortable after about 30 mins or so. I had to return them. I will be buying the cordless ones next.

    If you don't, protect your hearing by listening to music the way it was meant to be heard...through good speakers.

    I am all-out "beats" Products. For $150. I thought they lacked in a bunch of areas. I ended up buying a bose set instead and they are awesome!

    I wanted a good pair of headphones to replace my behind the ear/head pair I have and do not do well with earbuds staying in place; thought these would be a great alternative and was excited to have more bass with the music that I enjoy, but I did not get this effect. They sounded like the headphones I already had and did not consider that worthy of the price I paid for these.

    I have owned these head phone for 5 months. I have used these head phones less than 20 times... Currently they do not work... I need to send them back to Apple care to get my replacement refurbished set. The refurbished set will probably work for a couple months and stop working. This is "Deja Vu" or me... I'm unhappy with this product..

    They worked very well for about 2 weeks and then suddenly stopped working. I thought may be a battery issue for a one off piece, So I went to the store and got them exchanged. Same thing happened with the second piece in about 3 weeks. Returned and did not exchange for another power beats

    The part that is flexible and moves to how your ear is shaped had completely broken off. Had to throw them out. Be cautious people!

    These were good when they worked. All of the sudden they just stopped working and will not turn on. They show they charge but do not turn on. Bring expensive I would expect them to last much longer. I would not recommend any Powerbeats a you can get other brands that are higher quality at a lower cost. You are basically just paying for the name.

    Product is poorly made. I didn't like to sound quality. I think having a wireless device is better.

    These were my 3rd pair of Powerbeats wireless earbuds. I couldn’t turn down the price of them at the time and decided to give them another shot. Again, after less then a month of normal use ( exercising at the gym) they crapped out on me. Again, this was my 3rd attempt at these Powerbeats and I wouldn’t recommend them to anybody. The sound quality was just ok too.

    Battery will have a full charge prior to hitting the gym and within 20-30 minutes, the headphones disconnect. I’ve tried turning them back on to access battery % and will not turn back on (ie dead battery. I purchased the power 3, because the power 2’s were great, even after I broke the in line volume adjusted. Frustrated and disappointed.

    I have had my headphones for a year and a half and I have had to send them in 3 times and the issues seem to keep coming back. After a couple months of use they will no longer take a charge. I use them around 5 times a week for an hour each time. I don't over use them in any way and take good care of them. However, I continue to have these issues with no solutions and now it's out of warranty.
