Professional reviewers commend the Beats Fit Pro for its secure wingtip fit, strong ANC, and H1-driven Apple ecosystem features, noting its durability and bass-forward sound that suits active listeners. However, they point out ergonomic bulk, average mic performance, lack of multi-device pairing, and modest battery life as drawbacks.
Everyday users largely appreciate the secure fit during workouts, the robust build, and the convenient iPhone integration, while recurring concerns focus on fit comfort for smaller ears, the dominant bass response, and occasional microphone issues.
“won't fall out even during intense activity”
Professional reviewers commend the Powerbeats Pro 2 for their exceptionally secure earhooks, industry-leading battery endurance, and clear, detailed sound that improves on earlier Beats models. They also appreciate the addition of ANC, Transparency mode, heart-rate monitoring and recyclable packaging, while noting the earbuds' bulkier size, continued reliance on Lightning charging and the absence of an official IP rating as drawbacks.
Everyday users praise the earbuds for staying firmly in place during vigorous activity, lasting through long training sessions, and delivering powerful bass that motivates workouts. Common complaints revolve around the relatively large form factor, occasional connectivity hiccups, a bass-forward sound that can drown out vocals, and the inconvenience of Lightning-only charging.
