Powerbeats Pro Wireless Earphones - Apple H1 Headphone Chip, Class 1 Bluetooth, 9 Hours Of Listening Time, Sweat Resistant Earbuds, Built-in Microphone - Ivory

I bought these for my daughter as a birthday gift, and after more than a year of regular use, they’re still working perfectly. They arrived well-packaged and felt like a premium product right from the start. Pros: Excellent sound quality with strong bass Secure, comfortable fit — great for workouts or everyday use Still holding charge well after a year Sweat-resistant and durable — built to last Great value considering the performance and lifespan Cons: No issues at all so far — very reliable You really can’t go wrong with these. If you’re looking for long-lasting, high-quality wireless earphones, this pair is definitely worth the price.

I bought these earphones impulsively right before school because the pair of Bluetooth earphones I had broke on the bus. I knew Beats were a reputable brand and I had seen the Powerbeats Pro in tech reviews on YouTube so I decided to take a punt on them. I chose the Powerbeats over the likes of Airpods and Airpod Pros was due to the ear hook and secure fit. I am a runner therefore the hooks give added confidence to them staying on. When I first got them, the inclusion of the Apple H1 Chip makes the earphones incredible if you have an iPhone. They connected seamlessly and it shows the device on your iPhone which is a small feature however it's the small details for me. The fit was super snug and compact. A little heads up I would give before buying is that when putting them on for the first time, they might be a little painful for you. Your ear canal may be in a little bit of pain however this pain goes away after a week or so when your ear and earphones get used to each other. Wearing them properly also helps ease the pain (I know that sounds stupid however it is really easy to not slide them in correctly the first few times). I have had mine for a little over 4 months now and when I put them on, they are so comfortable sometimes I forget I have them on. As for the sound quality, I am not a sound genius that goes proper in-depth about the highs and lows, the frequency, etc. however I can keep it simple and say they are one of the best out there. I have tried many earphones from Apple's Airpods to JLab to Bose, and I can confidently say the Beats were my favourite. Sound is down to preference and opinions however the Beats had the crispest sound. They could handle all of my banging playlists without any issue. I like to listen to music very loud and my older self will hate me for it however I can say that the sound doesn't distort or muffle. They don't say they have active noise cancellation however the fit does a great job at blocking out around 90% of the sound (if listening above 50% volume). The case is fairly big but does its job. Fits into jacket pockets or bags easily however if you're a person that lives in skinny jeans... have fun trying to put them in your front pockets. In conclusion to my essay, if you're thinking of getting these, go for it. Why not? They are one of the best options out there. If you love your exercise, no brainer with these. Good build, solid sound, fantastic product.

As a set of headphones these are good. Sound quality is very good. They are comfortable enough & I can't really find a fault with them in that regard. I prefer earbuds that have loops that go round the ears & these are the best of that range. However do yourself a favour & buy a cheaper set with an actual on/off switch. Without any doubt these are one of the most frustrating devices I have ever had the displeasure of using. You can not turn these off without putting them in the case. A mind-numbingly stupid & bizarre decision. And they don't switch off after a period without use. They sit idle & the battery life drains away. So they have to go in the case which isn't all that compact. An awkward enough situation. Doubly awkward when the case & headphone connection is about as stable as the old internet dial up. I've spent what seems like a good hour at times frustratingly opening & closing the case and removing & reinserting earbuds all the while watching one (or sometimes both) earbuds remain connected to my phone through the Beats app. Meaning they are not off, not charging & losing battery life. What should be a 5 second exercise ends up pushing me to brink of breakdown. It's ridiculous. Now this could be a problem with a faulty case or some other nonsense but these earbuds aren't cheap. For the price you pay for a product with the financial backing of Apple & Beats it really is not acceptable. And it all could be avoided by simply being able to press that button on the side of the earbuds to turn them off. A feature of every other set of earbuds I've ever owned. Some people are just to smart for their own good. But perhaps I own some of the blame for not sticking to my rule of never buying anything Apple related. This will be the first and last time.

Straight to the point - Are these earphones worth the money? In my opinion, yes. If you need any more info please read on. These are simply *the* most comfortable and secure over-ear earphones you can buy today. I have so many issues with earbuds/phones that I've purchased four sets over the past 2 months, the final ones being the Powerbeats Pro. The key things I was looking for in a pair of earphones was comfort, fit, and battery life - all of the models i'd tried up to now either moved around, slipped out of my ear canal, or didn't last long enough. The Powerbeats Pro are solid when I'm out running or in the gym, even though i'm gurning and jumping around the place. Some people complain about the 'bulky' case but I honestly think it's pretty small and easily managed. Perhaps a tad too bulky for your average pocket but who carries headphones like that anyway? Pairing with an iPhone is effortless - simply open the case next to the phone you want to pair with and voila! Done. The case holds a couple of charges so even though the earphones last for roughly 9 hrs, you extend that by putting them back in the case to recharge. I've had no issues with connectivity to my phone or using them as a hands free device and the controls are intuitive and can be used from either earpiece. There are some downsides to this product, they're expensive, and if you're an audiophile you'll be a tad underwhelmed by the sound quality as there is room for improvement in the mid to high range frequencies. I only mention this for the most picky people though as the sound is more than acceptable to me and is the most balanced of all the earphones I've tried so far. To summarise, if you need some solid earphones for sport/exercise that you can put on and forget about these are the ones. The price tag is at the high end of the spectrum but after using these for the last few days I can say that its worth it.

I really wanted some wireless earbuds for a) Exercise (running) b) Being on conference calls Whilst they may get some use for listening to music, that's not my primary goal and as such I'm not overly concerned with the "tightness of the bass" or "brightness of the treble". In any event, they seem better than the other earbuds I own - mainly various varieties of iPhone items of various generations. Turns out, my ears are problematic. The best running solution that I had was gen1 iPhone headphones, with a foam cover on one of them. And still it's far from perfect. Airpods wouldn't work (the current gen wired iPhone pods fall out too easily). And, in general, I don't seem to get on terribly well with in-ear canal units. I tried Jabra's 'active' earbuds - review elsewhere. Whilst I think they're great, they're not for me - they just fall out when I walk, no matter which size tip I use. This is largely because if the tip works it's way out of your ear, it's game over. They also weren't so comfortable - the eartip is forced to be both strong enough to 'hold', yet weak enough to be 'comfortable'. No such problem with the powerbeats. In all the activities I've tried (running, rowing, indoor cycling) I have never been in fear of losing them. That's because the over-ear stay helps and it isn't relying on your ear 'gripping' the tip as the sole mechanism. However - they don't "perfectly seal", and do work their way out a bit. This doesn't worry me - there's different size tips that I could use in the pack, and probably 3rd party foam tips if I really cared which (unlike the Jabras) could probably remain on the pods whilst charging. The plus side of that is that they're comfortable. The day I got them I was on a conference call for 4+ hours, and they were comfortable to the end. Other plus points: The iOS pairing is ridiculously easy. You can show the battery status on your iPhone home screen, and the bluetooth menu on Mac OS also shows the power level. The range seems really good - and even if it starts breaking up, it recovers once you get closer to the source again. Battery life is very good. Even the case - which I had expected to be gigantor, is actually no bigger than palm-sized. Nice audio 'bur-bing' when it successfully pairs. ++ I can use them for sports without fear of loss! + Good for conference calls + Good battery life and performance; better quality than many earbuds 0 Seal eventually breaks for my ears (but YMMV and 4 sets of tips to try) - Spendy

amazing for quality & sound volume as i wanted some earphones after my skullcandy headphones were absolutely worn. Would recommend to others & the colour is gorgeous!

Very happy with this purchase. Always used Bears for running. Not quite a sturdy as my last pair but still happy with quality of sound. They stay comfortably in ears throughout your run unlike other earphones I've tried in the past.

I've got them for gym and I love them. Good sound quality, volume, and overall build quality is good. Have them for 6 months already and highly recommend the earphones!
