Description

Challenge yourself to be the best while exercising with the Beats Powerbeats Pro. These earbuds are completely wireless, so there's no cable in your neck or along your body. This allows you to exercise with complete freedom of movement. Thanks to the H1 chip, you can connect the earbuds to your iCloud devices such as a MacBook or iPhone wirelessly and within seconds. The chip also gives you access to Siri. You can control the music with your voice, without taking your iPhone out of your pocket. Say "Hey Siri" to the built-in microphone and the voice assistant will help you out. Do you rather want to use the Google Assistant? You can activate it by pressing one of the control buttons for a longer period of time. The total battery life is 9 hours. After 15 minutes of charging, you can use them again for 4.5 hours. With the different earbud sizes that are included, you can easily find the right fit. Always try various sizes.

Adjustable ear hook

The water-resistant design isn't the only thing that makes these earbuds ideal for exercise. The Powerbeats Pro also have an ear hook, so they'll stay in place even while you're exercising. Because the ear hooks are adjustable, you can make sure they'll fit snugly on your ears.

H1 chip

The Powerbeats Pro have the W1 chip by Apple, so you can connect the earbuds to your iCloud devices extra quickly. Simply hold them a few centimeters from your iPhone and your device will recognize the earbuds right away. The chip also saves battery and ensures better sound quality.

Fast Fuel

The Powerbeats Pro have a 9-hour battery life. The charging case offers another 24 hours of battery. The earbuds can be charged in the charging case. With the included lightning charging cable, you can connect the charging case to a power supply. Thanks to the Fast Fuel technique, you can use the earbuds for 1.5 hours after charging them for 5 minutes.

Note: Beats does include a charging cable, but no charger. Use your current accessories or purchase them separately.

Pricey, but good and very easy to use

Battery life
Better wearing comfort than BeatsX
Link devices via iCloud
Putting in takes some getting used to

Ever since the announcement I was waiting for the sale of Powerbeats Pro in the Netherlands. Ever since Apple left out the jack plug on its devices, I've had a set of "wireless" BeatsX earplugs. The wearing comfort of those earplugs has actually become increasingly difficult for me all this time, mainly because of the cord between the left and right sides. Airpods don't sit well with me anyway, so this product could be the next step. After I received a stock notification email from Coolblue, I ordered the Powerbeats Pro and received it yesterday.

The earplugs and case are neatly packed in a sturdy small box. Packaging as you might be used to from Apple (and now also Beats). In the box you will find the earplugs, the charging case, a black lightning-to-USB-A cable, 3 other sizes/shapes silicone tips and some stickers and papers.

After unpacking, immediately grabbed the iPhone and opened the charging case of the Powerbeats. The familiar animation quickly appeared on the iPhone's screen and after pressing the pairing button, the set was ready to use. And then suddenly ready for use on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch because of synchronization via iCloud. After unpacking and connecting the caps, I only used the caps for a short time and mainly tested how they stay in place with strong head movements. There was nothing to complain about at that point. They stay in place very well. When put back in the case, the caps are, as it were, automatically "sucked" into the right place by the built-in magnets. They also stay in place well.

A day later at the office, it is time to put them to the test for a longer period of time. Plug in the ears, switch on Spotify on the iPhone and listen to music in the midst of all your colleagues. Putting it in requires some dexterity, but after a few practice times this is simple and good. The trick is to twist the hook from front to back around the ear and then push the cap into the ear. The connection with the iPhone is made quickly and within a few seconds I am listening to music between typing and talking colleagues. With the Powerbeats at half volume, I can just hear my own keystrokes, but I hear almost nothing from my colleagues. No keys, no talking. Not bad for caps that don't have NC and purely because of the seal with the silicone tip, they keep out ambient noise.

At the time of writing, I've had the Powerbeats in my ears for several hours now, with no irritation or discomfort at all. That was certainly different with the aforementioned BeatsX. Operating the earplugs is also easy with the aid of the physical buttons that are present on both ears. Play, pause, skip track, adjust volume, everything is simple and good. The wearing detection also does its job well: remove 1 of the earplugs from your ear and the music will stop playing. If you put the earplugs back, the music will immediately resume. If you don't want this, you can simply turn it off in the Bluetooth settings of the Powerbeats Pro.

I really enjoyed the first hours with the Powerbeats Pro. After at least 3.5 hours of music playback (again: at 50% volume), 74% of the battery charge remains in the earplugs. What I haven't done with them yet and plan to wear them for running. Based on last night's head movement test, I don't expect any unpleasant surprises in terms of wearing comfort and staying put.

Great earphones but charging problems after 2 months

great sound
Long battery life
Stays put
Charging problems

Good earphones in the beginning (2 months), after that very often problems with charging. Received a new one as a replacement, but same problem there. In the case, the right earpiece often does not charge and even drains. Very annoying if you want to start exercising and the earphones don't work. Sound, ease of use is fine, and in the beginning I was also very enthusiastic. "Charging issues" appears to be a frequently mentioned problem with these earphones. So don't buy.

Connection iDevices
Mobility
Battery
big box

I have waited months for this product to come out in the Netherlands and have to say it has been worth it. No more annoying big headphones in my bag but just a box.

The brewing quality is fine. Although I did have a small silver scratch near the black charging port. Connection to the iDevices is smooth and fast. Open the box and they immediately appear on the screen of your iPad or iPhone. They can also be connected to the Apple Watch series 1.

In terms of mobility, you are in the right place with this product if you have a bag with you for the box. It also fits in your pocket, but then you walk with the feeling that you have a tennis ball in your pocket.

I also sometimes use them as a car kit. Then I only have 1 earpiece in. That works great. Only you can't just plug in the second cap after, for example, half an hour. For this you first have to put the other one back in the box, close the box, open it and then you can use them both at the same time.

The battery is fine. Haven't run out of power yet. Partly because the box charges the earphones neatly when you don't need them for a while.

I think a big plus is the way they are built. They don't fall out of your ears, so you can safely go cycling with them, unlike AirPods. They can suddenly slip out of your ears and lie under your wheel or on the street.

I think the tips are a minus. You get different sizes to make it fit. But those sizes are not good enough for my ear. As a result, they were just not comfortable in the beginning, even hurt. But over time, your ears get used to it or the tips become softer, so they sit better and the pain disappears further and further.

Recommended? If you want convenience and can spare the money.
