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

Great product. I prefer instead of the new ones. More comfortable

I never write reviews BUT… i listen to a lot of music top 3% in the world on Spotify im a plumber working flat out all day. These headphones are game changing taking calls blocking out harsh sound from drills etc. Most importantly these headphones are the dogs nuts. Sound quality is possibly the cleanest I’ve heard also these are the only earbuds that stay in and I can wear for 12 hours no issues. Lads these are the boys I bought 2nd hand of Amazon for £117 that’s a bargain in my eyes. Only down side is case feels floppy apart from that im chuffed

First off, the sound is Ok. I decided to replace some cheap generic headphones with a more expensive model and I can't really tell any difference.... no complaints, but not blown away.Unfortunately these have a horrible habit of not pairing properly. Most of the time on the first attempt only one side works. It's not always the same side so both appear to be functioning... just not simultaneously pairing with your phone. Usually resolves itself after 2-3 attempts, but to reset you have to put them back in the case which means you need to return to your case. Not great if you're exercising... which is primarily why I bought these.I've now encountered only one side charging properly. Having looked at the instructions you're told to place back in the case on the metal points. There is NO WAY of telling if both are clicked in properly... So only one may be charging correctly and you don't even know!!! This seems like a really simple issue that might be viewable on the app except...There is no app for iPhone! You just access the interface via Apple settings and it doesn't troubleshoot or tell you if there's a pairing or charging problem, or do any simple resets to fix.TBH, I would recommend just getting a basic pair of generic cheap headphones. I can't see any particular benefit to these, which I thought when purchasing to be a pretty high end brand.

Being truly wireless it's hard not to compare these to Airpods which have now become market leader and a consumer favourite. The AirPods are nice, convenient, portable and have good sound but they didn't have enough bass. I'm glad I skipped the AirPods because these are much better.I have to say I am no audiophile but I am someone who understands and enjoys good sounding audio. I know Beats have a reputation for being overpriced, bass heavy and not so great sound. I can confirm the Powerbeats Pros is surprisingly brilliant, the sound is rich and balanced with good mids and the bass is punchy without being muddy.Getting started and pairing the earphones is extremely easy and it's even simpler for iPhone users. You hold the earphone case (with the earphones in side) next to your iPhone, open the case and a message appears on your phone to connect. It's literally that simple, once you hit connect you're up and running. At first the sound might not be what you expected, I recommend you keep using it and allow a day or so for the earphones to break in before you get the full benefit of the sound.At first you may find the earphones aren't as convenient to put on as AirPods, they're bigger, come with ear hooks and take some getting used to on how to put them on. However once you're use to it and you've find your own personal technique on how to put them on it becomes a lot easier. Once on you'll find them a lot more secure in your ear because of the ear hook. Compared with the AirPods they're sweat and water resistant making them even more suitable for activities such as work outs or running. Also you can change the ear tips to fit your ears to get better sound, improved noise isolation and for better comfort.Unlike the AirPods and many other competitors the PowerBeats Pro actually have volume control on each earpiece, this is so convenient, it gives you excellent control of your music meaning you don't have to reach for your phone as much. The battery life is also a lot better at 9 hours and more than 24 hours from the charging case which I find excellent for a wireless earphone of it's size.As much as I love these earphones there are a few things that would have made it perfect for me. The charging case is good, it's strong, lightweight and does a good job at being protective but it is quite sizeable and will add some bulge to your pockets which most likely is already holding your phone and keys. I also wish that at this price the charging case was a wireless charging case for ease and convenience. Lastly I wish it had active noise cancelling instead of the noise isolation you have to rely on from the eartips.Despite this wish list I still find these earphones to be absolutely brilliant for what they are and I highly recommend them. If you can afford it then give them a go, they're worth it. Hope this helps.

Bought a pair of alternatives a few months back. Couldn't get them to fit with any of the suppled inserts so the ANC never worked because they wouldn't calibrate. Went for a walk - they would not stay in. The SQ was mediocre & had to scroll through countless settings to get a decent volume out of them. They were on offer but returned them.Didn't expect too much from these PowerBeatsPros (the reviews have been so-so) but I need something that will withstand walking, let alone running etc!Maybe not the easiest to fit but will no doubt get the knack. They setup on IOS in seconds - no issues but are part of Apple so no surprise there! The sound is slightly bass-heavy but not annoyingly so & with IOS, you can select 20 or so profiles to tailor the sound that's maybe not the best but not bad either. If using with an Android device, d/l the Beats app. They are simple to operate with just one volume rocker switch & the "b" logo acting as a function button.There are better sounding earbuds (including v2 of these) but for those like me who need ear loops, they work well enough.
