More about Powerbeats Pro
Powerbeats Pro is the first set of wireless earbuds in the Beats by Dre line, and it’s designed for athletes rather than office workers. That’s why it has over-the-ear support system and a tolerance for sweat. Still, it has the same H1 wireless chip found in AirPods 2, so it supports “Hey Siri.”
Apple promises 9 hours of listening time in each earbud. The charging case brings an additional 24 hours of playback.
The Cult of Mac comparison between Powerbeats Pro and AirPods says “There’s a ton to love about the Powerbeats Pro. To my ears, they have better sound, they keep outside noises isolated better, stay in place better, and can go way longer between charges.”
