QUESTION: Which earbud do you guys think is better? LIKE for the Beats Fit Pro or COMMENT for the PowerBeats Pro‼️
I haven’t tried the Fit Pro but I have been using Powerbeats Pro for 2+ years and love the sound and fit in my ear. I also have issues with the case cause sometimes one side doesn’t charge and is upsetting when I go for a run and have to wait 20 min to charge cause I don’t want to run with only one earbud working. I tried different jaybirds but the experience is not the same, the Apple ecosystem is a big difference
@@gregandrade3796 I agree with everything you said there, Greg. Still using the PowerBeats to this day!
@@gregandrade3796 you can reset them!! Press forget device on your wireless connection
Then repair to your iPhone or phone. Press the button in the middle on the charging case, til it finds and pairs your earbuds.
Let me know if it starts charging. It should
Definitely the BFP but with a little bit more volume (and a software update soon please Apple. Mine have only ever received one update in all the time I’ve had them…).
Thank you for sharing these information! Helped me a lot
So glad to hear that, Bruno! Thanks for checking out the video 😃
I’ve been rocking power beats pro for over a year and I definitely agree with all your points. Charging flaws but still the king for sports/gym.
Completely agree. Nothing beats how great they are for the gym. Thanks for checking out the video! 😃
Thank you for the thorough, well prepared comparison. This was very useful!
Appreciate the comment, Matt! Glad you enjoyed it 😃
This is my first video I watch from you. I appreciate your honesty and your calmness in explaining. Thank you so much 😊
Thanks for the review. I’ve had the same questions. Have had my Powerbeats for several years as well and love the fit during bike rides, skiing, and normal workouts. They have only ever fallen out once when I dumped my bike. And only one fell out right under where I landed. I was concerned about the fit in the Fit Pro’s. Noice cancelling would be nice, but not a deal breaker. I also hope they come out with an updated Powerbeats with the same features. And yes, the charging issue is the biggest down side to the Powerbeats. So frustrating. Just dealt with it tonight!
What’s wrong with the charging issue?? Mine always attatches
Thanks for the great review, I’ve been using my Powerbeats Pro’s for 2 years. I am an EXTREME user you might say. From the time I wake up to the time I go to bed I have them in my ears. I am a fully disabled combat veteran and one of my medical problems is that I suffer from really bad Tinnitus, due to having worked around Jets nearly every day during my years of service. I have found one of the best ways to combat it is by making sure I always have some “background” noise going on because it’s made much worse when I’m in a quiet room with little/no noise. Ever since discovering this I wear them ALL DAY as I stated. Yes having ANC would be PHENOMENAL but it sounds like the trade offs are NOT WORTH IT. Now the one issue I have been having recently aside from the charging issues that you’ve mentioned (which makes me glad it’s not just me that has an issue with them not charging correctly) is that lately my RIGHT headphone always seems to die more quickly then the left one. I’m not sure why that is given that they’re both being used EXACTLY the same as they ALWAYS have been. I’m considering just buying another set of right side headphone to replace it and see if that helps. I also have my first set which is unfortunately missing the left side headphone that I lost somewhere. So I might just buy another left one so I have two sets of them. That way when I have to charge the one set I can keep wearing some while they’re charging. That is my favorite part about these headphones, THE BATTERY LIFE!!! No other headphones I’ve tried comes close. Anyways I apologize for this ABSURDLY LONG comment, but I just wanted to share my little backstory with you. I hope they don’t give up on the PBP’s because I LOVE THEM!!!! Thanks for saving me from buying headphones I probably wouldn’t be happy with!!!!!
Wow! Thanks so much for sharing your story and for your service. That is awesome that the PowerBeats are so helpful for you! I still am enjoying them (despite the charging issues) and I have no plan to switch anytime soon. Thanks for checking out the video! 😃
Great video man! I currently have the Beats fit pro and AirPods Pro. Very similar earbuds. The Beats fit pro are only a tad bit better due to the fit. I love my AirPods Pro but my only problem was they always started to slip out of my ear after wearing them a while. With the Beats fit pro, they are very secure. But i do agree, noise cancellation and transparency mode are not as good as the AirPods Pro but they are very close. I have not had the chance to use the Powerbeats pro and i never got them because of the issues they faced. Overall though i do enjoy the beats fit pro at the moment.
Thanks for checking out the video, Travis! That is awesome that you have been enjoying your Beats Fit Pros. I figured that the fit would vary person to person, and it sounds like they work well for you! 😃
Awesome video , I’ve been using the powerbeats pro In spring yellow on my google pixel 4xl absolutely love the set using them on daily when out and about without having issues
Awesome to hear, Daniel! Glad you enjoyed the video 😃
I went with the Powerbeats Pro. One of my primary concerns was a secure fit and the over the ear design provides that. I couldn’t be more satisfied and this ranks as one of the best tech purchases I’ve ever made.
Couldn’t agree more! Outside of the weird charging issues I have had, the PowerBeats have been perfect! 😃
Do you have issue with the charging case as one leaves uncharged etc? As mentioned in the video??
Thought the same thing as well; two years later, probably biggest regret. I can only use one ear ‘cause the other one dies in five minutes. Xd
Idk how this guy doesn’t have so much subscribers , what a good video, excellent review dude!!
I love the wrap around Powerbeats! I’m constantly moving for my job and my husband bought me a pair last Christmas a year ago. There are a lot ways we take care of them, for example, in the case there’s a restart button. EarPods always fall out for me, the wrap around feature is amazing. I’ve known a lot of people who lost apple EarPod and it’s so expensive. Powerbeats is my favorite. I used to wear wrap around like Bose but I can’t afford expensive. They were about $20 but the constant cost of replacing them. I tried many Bluetooth options and Powerbeats are 2 years old and amazing. A lot of really good tips online, any situation. I personally recommend. It’s worth the money
This review is so on point! Thank you!
You definitely need more recognition. You won me over. Keep up the good work.
Wow! I appreciate the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it 😃
@@daniellangewisch Nothing but the truth. 😁😁😁 Can’t wait for more content.
You hit the nail on the head with this review thanks a ton. I hope they make the power beats pro 2 'ear hook' someday charging is a big issue but you can beat the comfort and quality of life they offer
Totally agree! Hoping for an update to fix a few of the issues. Until then…I’m riding with the PowerBeats 😎
I just need the power Beats Pro 2’s case to be much smaller to be easier to carry around
Thank you so much for this review. I was debating getting the fit pros when I’ve had Powerbeats pro for 2 years now and they’ve been great.
You are so welcome! Thanks for checking out the video. Glad it was helpful 😃
This was really helpful, kudos to the video production as well! Cheers!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it. 😃
I love my Beat Fit pros! Super comfortable to me. I sleep with them in my ears every night. They never come loose. It probably depends on your ear shape.
If you lay on your side while sleeping, doesn't the button get pressed though?
U 🧢’n
How do you not click the buttons when on your side with them in?
Thanks man! I have the powerbeats pro and I was thinking in upgrading them to these new ones, but I have your same problem with the ear fit. I'll stay with my powerbeats pro :) Thanks man!
Glad this video was helpful for you! I’m sticking with my PowerBeats as well 💪🏼
Great video. After using powerbeats pro for several years before I change to another buds, I have no regrets. The powerbeats pro over the ear design have a "problem" when you wear shades during a run out in the sunny day.
Good point! PowerBeats aren’t as good if you are wanting to wear sun glasses. Thanks for checking out the video! 😃
What a great point! Sunglasses while running is mandatory!
@@surfnyolly not if you’re running at night….
I did not think about this thanks! Now I know I am gonna buy the fit pro because I live in a very sunny environment and wear sunglasses everyday
Great video! I've had hundreds of headphones and the PowerBeats Pros are by far the best wireless headphones if you live an active lifestyle, play sports, snowboard, bike, work out, run, jog, hike etc. There is literally no comparison. Everything else falls out or gets loose. I actually just bought a second pair this boxing day incase they don't make a new version which I'm worried might happen considering it's been 3 years.
Most honest review. I had the same exact issue. It’s like yes I know the beats fit pro may sound a bit better but we are using both of these earbuds for working out and the most important thing is fit. If I run for a few miles I need something to stay in my ear. The PBP is the way to go.
The fit pros stay in my ears perfectly when running. Ear sizes definitely vary
Thanks and great review! I ordered powerbeats pro 1st pair. Now that I've heard they're discontinuing them. I wanted to a pair a long time ago. But had to exercise self restraint in buying them because I already had an awesome pair of noise cancelling earbuds I loved and would recommend except they just discontinued them as well. They were called Plantronics 3200. Awesome, super durable, super comfortable and plenty of full sound for my taste! They seemed to endure like a rock. I'm so thankful I got the Assurion Insurance which was so cheap on Amazon at the time. Cause after 2.5 years the case finally wouldn't hold a charge. I couldn't believe when Assurion said they were just gonna issue me a gift card via email in the exact amount I bought them 2.5 years ago which was 150$. The insurance policy was only like 17$ I think. I don't even think they offer that anymore. But anyways. Now that they are finished. I was elated I could finally and justifiably get a pair of Powerbeats Pro. I was a little taken aback the price on them has really diminished it seems? So, already knowing that I love the ear hook which was on the Plantronics. I was trying to decide if I should abort and move the Beats Fit Pro. So, thanks again for the great compare video! I'll probably just stick with the order for PowerBeats Pro, for now
Awesome! Thanks for checking out the video! 😃
Your intro got me. I'm watching. Also, first video to come up with a review and the comparison I wanted. 👏👏Props.
Thanks, Simeon! Glad the video was helpful. Glad to have you on board 🙌🏼
I would like to say I think it does depend on your ear for the secure fit because when I went for a run I had no issues with them feeling like they were falling out. I do agree with them feeling painful after a little while of wearing them
Thanks for checking out the video! Totally agree. Some people won’t have a problem with the fit at all. I was really hoping that would be the case for me, but unfortunately, it wasn’t. I was surprised that they hurt my ears like they did, though!
How do you cope with the pain
See I have pain with powerboats pros after wearing them for a while over my ear. So I guess it just depends person to person
Excellent review. You made your points in a very clear and logical way. Just like with the old Bluetooth ear phones, there comes a point on the curve where size and utility can outweigh supposed upgrades due yo smaller size. I think the Power Beats are the epitome of size and utility. Anything smaller or with these stupid touch controls is actually a step backwards. Thanks for your comparison. I’m in complete agreement with your assessment.
Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Everything you said bro make sense.. a review that i need to hear.. thank you! Hope you get more subscriber cause your good! 👍🏼
That means so much! Thanks! 🙌🏼
I had the beats fit pro and I love the way they fit! I gave my son my power beats pro. They both work equally as well. I can barely feel the beats fit pro in my ears. Great sound!❤❤. Thanks for your review.
I've been using beats powerbeat pro for 2 years, just got beats fit pro the other day, and I'm having all the issues just like you described. Gonna go back to my powerbeat pro now.
Dang. Sorry to hear about that! It really is too bad. 😕
Great review, helped me in my purchase!
So glad I could help you out, Ian! 😃
I’ve been a devoted Powerbeats user for years but just picked up a pair of Beats Fit Pro. Love them so far! The fit is surprisingly secure, and they also work better with sunglasses 😎
You’ve helped me a great deal. Thank you.
That is so great to hear, Greg! Glad it was helpful 😃
Powerbeats was my go to for 2 years. Got a new job spending time outside. Powerbeats and shades don’t work together. Both can get uncomfortable over time in my ear, but with a twist on the Fit it goes away. The Fit Pro transparency mode was the selling point for me. I literally wear them for 8hrs straight at work, while still being able to have full conversation. I do adjust them 2-3 times per hour for comfort. I don’t have any issues with either when I’m working out, something I was worried about with the Fit Pro. They even stayed in during a 2-2 B-ball game for me. Anyway I will be selling the Powerbeats. And yes the case quality is very disappointing.
I started working as a Truck Driver Helper. In my job basically consists of jumping up & down the truck and making deliveries. 90% of my day is outside. And honestly I'm still on the fence about both of them. The pros and cons are too close. It would have been the Powerbeats instantly if it wasn't for some horrible case
Real solid review that was everything I wanted to know. Go Powerbeats!
Thank you so much it was the best review for me to decide buy which one 😀
Awesome! So glad it helped 😃
Nice video...I got both and i though i was going to replaced the power beats pro with the Power fit pro but i had all those problems u just mantion in this video...i used them in my house now
I have both of these and I’ve been using the Powerbeats for years. I also got the beats pro fit as an upgrade. My biggest complaint about the pro fit is that they really hurt my ears by the 1 hour mark. Also, the last of control on the buds.
Totally agree! They hurt my ears as well. Glad the PowerBeats are working for you! 😃
Good to know I won’t be buying them. I’m still using my Powerbeats pro
The only thing is the little b sticker came off on one head piece.
How do u clean inside your charging case? And your headphones
Thanks for this video! You are a spot on! I’m returning mine tomorrow!😂🎉😊
Ha glad I'm not the only one! 😂
Excellent video, all very well said in comparison to the product. For me in particular, the only thing I don’t like about the Powerbeats pro is the bass, I need a little more bass. Greetings from the north coast of California.
Great review! Saved me purchasing beats fit pro 😅
Holy Heck that worked!!!! Thank you so much!!
Glad to help out! 😃
Thanks for the honest review 👍🏼
Appreciate the support, Doug! Glad you found it helpful 😃
After having power bears pro since they launched, today i had my first gym sesh with the fit pro. Having ANC to drain out treadmill and terrible gym music was great but I experienced the same exact fit issues as you. I also run. However I primarily purchased these because i wanted anc for riding my bike indoors. As long as I don’t have any sliding out on the bike, I will probably dedicate the fit pro for just the bike, the pbp for gym, and either fit pro or AirPods Pro for work/errands (depending on if I get used to the fatigue from the fit pro). Also I’m so glad u pointed out the case thing. It was the very first thing I noticed when I opened them.
Wow! That is awesome that you own all three of those! Sounds like you have an awesome setup 🙌🏼
@@daniellangewisch thanks! I’m pretty enthusiastic about audio and music… but the more I test the more I’m leaning towards returning the fit pro. Especially since I just noticed that buzzing. Also the fit pro ironically feel heavier in the ear than the Powerbeats pro. Thank u for a great vid!
Thank you so much for your review, I am using the Powerbeats pro for a one year, after releasing the fit pro I have been talking to my self should I get the new or just stay on what you have. After watching your review I can decide now that I will keep using my power pro and not to buy the fit pro for several reasons, 1st power pro lasts for 12 hours and I usually don’t carry the charger case with me, 2nd the controls buttons are more convenient than the fit pro so I don’t need to touch my phone to lower or increase the sound volume, 3rd I tried the active noise cancellation in airpods pro (didn’t fit on my ear so for this reason I changed to Powerbeats pro) and I really didn’t like it and I put it in a transparency mode which is similar to passive cancellation in power pro, the sound quality in power pro and airpods pro are same for me (I am not expert) but I think the sound volume is little bit higher in AirPods Pro. the reason for thinking about the fit pro is only the design as power pro is little bit big and similar to hearing supportive devices as some times people asking me if I have problems in my ear but now after seeing your picture at this video tag you did something excellent buy curving the power pro up so wing will circle the ear from outside which is awesome. At the end after your review I will stick with my Powerbeats pro
Awesome! Thanks for checking out the video. Glad it was helpful! 😃
Are your Powerbeats working? I hear everyone has a issue with charging
I’ve had 4 pairs of power beats pro and use them predominantly for cycling (over 5000 miles a year). I love the fit, but I can NOT keep a pair charged reliably, hence the 4 pairs! Within a month a new pair gets to the “spend 10 minutes carefully trying to get them to charge” and eventually move to “impossible to charge”. And I’m a gadget guy and great with that kind of thing. But you know (and state) this. It’s so annoying when you are about to head out cycling.
Thank you for adding cons to you video, this helped alot, your the best man
Appreciate the comment. Always trying to show both the positives and negatives of a product! 👍🏼
@@daniellangewisch 💪
Thanks. Very helpful. I just bought airpods pro and suddenly saw that apple fit beats pro just opened for ordering so i got upset but.. after seeing your video, im glad and no regrets anymore 😄
Glad I could help out! Enjoy your AirPods! 😃
Amen I’m praying 🙏🏾 they update the Powerbeats I have love them from day one. There PERFECT! True story my first time using the Beats fit pro I got in elevator and as door was closing it fell out my ear and rolled into shaft slit. 😫
Dang that is so unfortunate! Really hoping they update them as well! 🙏🏼
I agree with all your cons. How we correct magnetic hold on the power beats ? My left ear never gets fully charged on power beats. How do we fix power beats problem ?
I'm still rocking the powerbeats 3...still sound amazing!! can't beat the secure fit when you're working out
Bro, I have both and I agree with you on nearly every single point. I can live with the cheap case and I didn’t hear the buzzing sound but OMG these things are so painful to wear! The left earbud literally made my ear bleed from rubbing my ear raw! 😳 I kid you not, dead serious, I pulled the ear bud out of my ear and it was covered in blood. 🤬 I want to like the Beats Fit Pro buds so bad because all the features are amazing, I can live with the more limited controls compared to the PowerBeats, the sound quality is incredible, Dolby Atmos is like surround sound in me head, I love being able to actually fit the case in my pocket, but the pain if just unbearable at times. I have fairly average ears so unless someone has dumbo size ears, I don’t know how these could be comfortable for anyone for any extended period of time.
Thanks for checking out the video! Sorry for your rough experience with them. That sucks. Yea, it’s too bad because I really wanted to like these earbuds!
About a week ago I bought the beats fit pro and have been using them since I have to say I love them with a passion I would highly recommend them
I’m glad they work great for you! That is awesome. 😃
Hello, one of my Beats Fit pro felt in the snow. Do you think it stopped working properly?
Thanks for this honest review
Great vid man🤙
Thanks, man! Appreciate you checking out the video 😃
Thanks alot for this Review, exactly what i was looking for... same problem as you with any buds. Still going for the PowerBeats Pro then :D or do you have a better suggestion? Thanks man!
Thanks for checking out the video! If fitness is your number one use, I would get the PowerBeats Pros. Otherwise, the AirPod Pros are a solid all-around option as well for Apple devices.
Analysis is spot on. I have both & gave my PowerBeats to my son & recently have been using Beats Pro for a few weeks. Beats Pro does not stay in securely, especially when I run. I think I’ll be returning the Beats Pro & get another PowerBeats.
Glad you found this video helpful! 😃
Great Video, thanks for that. The Powerbeats Pro were my daily companion until the end of last year. The sound quality was more than sufficient and above all the good and secure fit through the brackets was the killer argument. BUT, the loading issues were driving me insane and I needed an alternative. The Beats Fit Pro were not yet available in Europe, so after a long comparison I decided on the Teufel Airy Sports TWS. Sounded great and held up just as well as the Powerbeats Pro thanks to the bracket. The loading problem is also history due to a different positioning in the case. A really good alternative if you can do without ANC etc. and it's all about the music and perfect support during sports.
Awesome! Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll have to check them out! 😃
What do you mean by loading, plz elaborate
This review was so helpfull! Thank you.I have Dumbo ears so I think I will stick with the Powerbeats.
You are 100% right…the wrap around the ear beats are the best fit I’ve ever had; however, I am having the dreaded 1 ear Bud not charging issue. Getting so frustrated that I lose power in the middle of a workout that I’ve started looking for a new set. The Bose earbud sport have an incredible fit but are bulky or sold out. I finally ordered a pair and just returned due to one earbud not working 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Got my bfp as a gift , the biggest issue I'm facing it hurts in the ear.. wingtip
I haven't used power pro yet, reluctant to replace the latest model with a years old product.. what would you recommend me if you were in my shoes.. plz
Was wondering how the actual fit is with these? Especially with the ear tips. Been a fan of the Jabra 65t and 75t but they broke down.
Got the Bose sound sport but it won't stay in my ear. Looking to get these or the power beats pro
Appreciate the comment! For exercise, nothing beats the PowerBeats. They are the most secure earbuds for fitness. I was still having trouble with the Beats Fit Pros falling out while working out. If you don't do much working out, the Beats Fit Pros work fine though!
I love everything about the Powerbeats except charging! Is it worth dealing with the charging issue for the confidence in the Powerbeats staying on your ear during a long run?
As I mention in the video, if a secure fit is your number one priority, then I think it is worth it. I am still using the PowerBeats today despite the charging issues they have. One way I have helped deal with the issue is by putting a battery widget on my home page of my iPhone. Then, every time I am using my phone, I can see if one of the PowerBeats earbuds is not charging. Obviously, still annoying, but at least I can fix it rather than the earbud dying without me knowing it. Hope that helps! 😃
To help w/ charging, make sure you press the side w/ the volume rockers towards the magnets in the case. You should hear/feel a light click.
imo wearing them at a busy gym, you hear so much background noise.
very nice review! I almost bought the beats fit pro to replace my power beats pro and im glad I didnt!
Glad this helped you out! 😃
I rarely write comments, but this video is awesome! I'm a powerbeats Pro users and fully agree with your comments in the videos and I will stay with my pb pro!
Thanks so much for commenting! Glad you found the video helpful. I’m staying with my PowerBeats as well 💪🏼
I don’t work out or anything but I’m a ups driver and I’ve had the Powerbeats pros for like idk 2-3 years and they have never fallen out. I want to upgrade but I’ve grown attached to these. But to get noise cancelling in my loud ass truck while I’m listening to audio books may be worth the upgrade alone.
I had the original powerbeats and they lasted close to 7 yrs. At the end the speakers never failed but I assume an issue in the battery and wiring occurred and they wouldn't charge anymore. I then went with powerbeats pro. I like the hook feature. I do a lot of sprint runs, hikes and mountain biking. I just hope they last as long as my first powerbeats did.
I agree with the charging issue, I got a new charging case "off market" via amazon and so far the charging is working great I agree best over the ear fit especially for HIIT or running!
Glad to hear the new charging case is working for you! I might need to try that myself...
Very helpful video! Thanks. I’ve had my Powerbeats pro for over 2 years now, I had seriously considered “upgrading” to the BeatsFit Pro. I agree will all the points you’ve made. You’ve saved me from getting rid of my very good Powerbeats Pro, wasting money on a new pair of BeatsFit Pro and regretting my choice.
Wow, Sandra! Thanks for the kind words. SO glad I could help you save some money and stick with your PowerBeats! 😃
Daniel, thank you great video 100% for
Powerbeats Pro
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Great vid!
Thank you! I really appreciate it 😃
Great video. I’m hoping that they update the Powerbeats Pro because I agree that the hooks are much more secure than the wings of the Beats Fit Pros. Question, on Reddit have you been following the posts related to issues with Powerbeats Pro battery drain? I’ve had mine for about 2 years and the right earpiece drains after 40 minutes and the left drains after an hour. Some angry Redditters want to start a class action lawsuit over the issue.
Thanks for checking out the video! I haven’t heard about that specific problem. My only issue has been the finicky charging of the PowerBeats.
I’ve had my Powerbeats pro for two years now and the same for me. They both drain in less than an hour. That’s why I bought the beats fit pro
@@daniellangewisch I have the same issue with the charging of my power beats pro. Picked up the PB FIT PRO today. Gonna see how they do. So far I wish they were louder.
@@86keen Nice! I hope you have a better experience than I did with them. Let me know your thoughts! 😃
mine are the same way. Of course Apple wont do anything for now until something is officially settled. So I'm stuck with having to pay for a new pair now and hope to get something for the powerbeats later down the road.
Try using using the silver ware cleaning solution and lightly brush on the contacts of the Powerbeats pro and the casing. Seems to help me with the charging inconsistency issue!
Just picked up the Beats fit pro. Luckily they fit my ears and I really like the sound quality for the most part. I did try and listen to music with Violins and high vocals at higher volumes but it sounded like screeches. Tested it on my power beats and they handled it with no problem and with clarity. Luckily I’m mostly into hip hop so it’s not too much of a big deal for me.
Glad they fit you well! If they would’ve got me well, I probably would’ve kept them. Hope you enjoy them! 😃
@@daniellangewisch beats fit pro came out with a firmware update. Now they sound incredible. No more problems 👍
What would you recommend now? How much better do the Powerbeats sound?
@@Bryan48950 I would definitely stay away from the beats fit pro. 6 months later and the wing tips ripped off. Apple will not replace them unless you pay $180 for both earbuds. Terrible durability with no possible warranty from apple.
@@BigWisper Got you, thanks man
I have both but I’m really liking the beats fit pro, no noises and works great, very comfortable in my ear .
Just got my Beats Fit Pro. Eartips aren't comfortable for my ear canal, so I switched out for memory foam eartips, and it makes all the difference; I can wear this for 5 hours max.
Wow! Good suggestion, Elliott! Glad that fixed it for you 😃
@Elliot Ware, do you have a link to the memory foam tips you ordered?
@@jzam210 look up Comply memory foam. They have different sizes for each eartip.
@@DatTruckinGuy placed an order for the foam tips. Thanks!!
@@jzam210 are you happy with it now? Solved the issue? My problem is wingtips hurt my ears badly even tried with different eartips. Any suggestions?
Great video! I used the PowerBeats Pro more then 2 years for running and gym. It is great, but the annoying connectivity problem is a deal breaker unfortunately. They should have just fixed the charging / connectivity problem and that would have been great. I would have bought them again.
Spot on in terms of the lack of comfort when wearing for a long time period. After about 30 mins they start to hurt bad due to that hard wingtip..very upsetting as they’re very good otherwise!
Totally agree! It really is too bad. Thanks for checking out the video! 😃
dude this is exactly why i’m leaning more on the the PB Pro. The PB Fit Pro look like they will get loose over time. I love the smaller form factor but it sucks having to worry about losing $200 earbuds, let alone losing one of them!
Yup! I just found the PowerBeats Pro to be much more secure. Obviously, other people could have a different experience, but I value a secure fit over all else with earbuds for working out. Glad the video was helpful! 😃
I returned my fit pro after a month trial. Never had a great seal, thus good noise cancellation. Eventually they would pop out in the gym doing simple seated curls. That was the final straw.
@@jasonmichael982 I had a similar experience, Jason. It is too bad. Wish they were as secure as the PowerBeats Pro!
It really helped me to choose wich one to purchase thx bro
Awesome! Glad to help you out 😃
@@daniellangewisch oh I have one last question. Does the music sound is leaking outside of PBP? I have to care about the sound of these because of my working conditions.
@@daniellangewisch sorry for my English cause i'm Korean 😭
I also love the dedicated volume buttons of powerbeats pro. In addition to the fits pro wing being uncomfortable People are also already seeing the inner wing break down, probably because it needs to be a softer more delicate material to be semi comfortable.
I definitely agree about the volume buttons! Super useful when working out. Thanks for checking out the video 😃
You can adjust it in the settings to control the volume with the fit pros as well.
Really good review
Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
Bought the beats fit pros, had the jabra elite active 75t’s and none of them worked for me, sadly my ears during workouts get to greasy, had hopes for the bf pros since they where small and everyone was recommending them for the “secure” fit but honestly im going to have to buy the powerbeats pro I dint want to do it since their old and well “noticeable” but hey at least im going for sure with a pair that don’t fall off ☹️
Appreciate the comment, Steven! I agree that if secure fit is what you want, the PowerBeats are the best choice. Hope they work out well for you! 😃
I have a pair of beats studio 3 that make a sort of hissing sound when you pair them up but this disappears as soon as you turn off anc. Hope this helps.
Appreciate the advice! 😃
I have this over a week now. I discovered two things. When listenIng metal music, for example Harvester of sorrow by Metallica, there is close to none cymbal sound. I compared to my existing earbuds difference is huge. Secondly, vocals, especially women and highs in general is too harsh it even hurts my ears to listen for a long period of time. Is my unit defective? What do you think?
Appreciate the comment! Do you have the Beats Fit Pros or the PowerBeats?
@@daniellangewisch my bad. I asked for the beats fit pros.
Yea I have found they are better for music with a lot of bass so that might be why you are experiencing that. Sorry to hear that! 😕
@@daniellangewisch yeah. That’s a bummer.
I have a not so common question about the fit pros that i want to know if anyone can answer who has these?
Im like daniel and use the power beats pro. Simply because my ears automatically reject any ear buds even when im not working out. I need a (Hook) to keep them in place. Is anyone out there like this too? My ear holes are not supper small but somehow always reject any ear bud. Its insane no matter how deep i force it in.
My question is, for those who have this problem, have you tried the fit pro? and dose its little hook they added really keep the ear bud secure during regular day to day life for someone who has my ear rejection problem?
Please someone answer. I just need to know if the little hook even helps secure the but at all because my ears can only depend on hooks for any activity. I see the hook could curve into the upper enclosed part of the ear. But no one has really shown or gave detail on how good the hook works. Please please if anyone has this issue and has tried it with the fit pro please answer this question. Thank you.
Following. I have the same issue.
My left airpod pro has a buzz now which is aggravating. So been using my Power Beats Pro more. Wonder if it’s the anc tech that causes this? Think I’ll pass on the Fit Pro and wait for a refresh on PBP or AirPods Pro.
That’s probably a good call. Sorry you are having those issues 😕
I once went to a roller coaster with the Powerbeats pro forgetting I was still wearing it and it never fell off or felt like it was going to, again horrible build quality with so many problems but proves the design works. Still sounds great though after 2 years, I literally wear it daily and I’m not exaggerating.
That is crazy! I love how secure the PowerBeats are. Would love if they updated the product, keeping the same design, but improving a lot of the other issues.
I just got my pair and I tried so hard to hear that buzz and I just couldn’t. Could be a defect in some peoples.
I had problems with the airpod pros moving out and disconnecting my calls because Of it. These are so much better
I’m glad to hear that you didn’t have that problem! My guess is only certain units had it. Hope you enjoy them! 😃
I love my Powerbeats Pro. To address the charging issue, I learned to always press the side w/ volume rockers towards the magnets. You should hear/feel a light click to ensure they’re in the charging case properly.
Unfortunately I’ve lost the case & 1 earbud. I’m not sure if I should re-purchase the Powerbeats Pro, find an alternative, or wait around to see if Powerbeats Pro 2 will come along.
Appreciate the comment! I will try out that tip. Up until this point, nothing has fixed it for me 😕
I completely agree with you. I bought the beats fit pro because I wanted the upgrade of the power beats pro. But the fit pro is just super uncomfortable for a long period of time
I've always struggled with knowing just by the shape and of the design of the ear bud weather or not they are going to be comfortable for me to wear in my ears comfortably enough for the long stretches of time that I can go listening to music or podcast or UA-cam videos ect.
I just lost my beats fit pro and i could cry. i loved them so much and used them all day every day. I dunno what to get to replace them. i don't have the money for the same ones.
Thanks bro. I have some weird and sensitive ears. I got power beats from Costco…my ears actually loves it
Thanks for this honest review, I felt the same way with how they hurt my ears
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it! 😃
My power beats pro just died on me left ear doesn’t play sound anymore and I’m looking for new I’m scared to try these because I am so use to the over ear wrap and I don’t want to constantly be adjusting them so they don’t fall out
Sorry to hear about you PowerBeats dying on you. As great as they are, they do have some flaws in their quality as well. Unfortunately, I don't think I could ever get earbuds that don't have the hook again. 🤷🏼♂️
A lot of people choose the PowerBeats Pro over the Beats Fit Pro because of the over ear loop for security and stability. But I just got a pair of Beats Fir Pro and took my shirt off mid run and was very surprised that they stayed in my ears and didn’t even need adjustment after trying to get my big head out of the shirt. I’m confident there’s no way possible these could fall out the ears on its own.
Awesome! Glad to hear they worked for you. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for me 😕
I love my power beats pro they're great for me and don't irritate my tragus jewelry but I'm digging the fit pro size I think I'm going to get some.
Great now I hear the buzz. Thanks.
Lol sorry about that 🙈
How do you clean your powerbeats and the inside of the case. Lol mine gets waxy
I rinse with water and soap then air dry them. Or wipe them down with a spray
I usually just wipe them off with a damp cloth! But I’d be lying if I said my PowerBeats weren’t pretty gross as well… 😂
