In my opinion, yes. If you need any more info please read on.These are simply *the* most comfortable and secure over-ear earphones you can buy today. I have so many issues with earbuds/phones that I've purchased four sets over the past 2 months, the final ones being the Powerbeats Pro. The key things I was looking for in a pair of earphones was comfort, fit, and battery life - all of the models i'd tried up to now either moved around, slipped out of my ear canal, or didn't last long enough. The Powerbeats Pro are solid when I'm out running or in the gym, even though i'm gurning and jumping around the place. Some people complain about the 'bulky' case but I honestly think it's pretty small and easily managed. Perhaps a tad too bulky for your average pocket but who carries headphones like that anyway? Pairing with an iPhone is effortless - simply open the case next to the phone you want to pair with and voila! Done. The case holds a couple of charges so even though the earphones last for roughly 9 hrs, you extend that by putting them back in the case to recharge. I've had no issues with connectivity to my phone or using them as a hands free device and the controls are intuitive and can be used from either earpiece.There are some downsides to this product, they're expensive, and if you're an audiophile you'll be a tad underwhelmed by the sound quality as there is room for improvement in the mid to high range frequencies. I only mention this for the most picky people though as the sound is more than acceptable to me and is the most balanced of all the earphones I've tried so far.To summarise, if you need some solid earphones for sport/exercise that you can put on and forget about these are the ones. The price tag is at the high end of the spectrum but after using these for the last few days I can say that its worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant, better than Airpods

T.K.T. · 17 August 2019

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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pretty basic and really bug prone

A.J. · 18 December 2024

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.

Expensive but Absolutely Worth the Money

R.G. · 14 January 2020

Being an Audiophile I've tried a lot of wired and wireless earbuds. This is the best one I've come across. Though expensive, it's the best truly wireless earbuds out there in the market. I bought this only to wear while working out but found myself wearing it in casual home and office setting as well. The sound quality is good, it's a little bit heavy on the Bass, as you can expect from a pair of Beats. It's having controls on both the earbuds so you can use either of them to change track, lower the volume, take calls. Battery backup is simply mind-blowing. It puts all other truly wireless buds to shame in that aspect. Connection is very reliable and strong. Pairing process is easy. Only drawbacks are : No USB C (It still charges through lightning), The Case is pretty big and hefty. All in all, if you afford, definately go with this and you'll love it.

Finally found my workout earbuds

O.S. · 6 August 2022

I tried a lot of brands;Soundpeats, sony, jabra, xiaomi, apple airbuds pro but all seemed to drop down from my ears during crossfit workouts (doubleunders, ski erg, clean and jerks)Decided to buy these after seeing them on 3-4 people at the gymthey are really good!sound quality, noise cancellation, has everything I need.
