Beats Powerbeats Pro 2

Beats' long-awaited Powerbeats Pro 2 bring all kinds of treats to the gym – and some surprises

- 

The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 are exactly what we wanted from the next iteration of one of the most important franchises from the brand. They sound better, are lighter and have longer battery life than the amazing Beats Powerbeats Pro. And thanks to their ear hook design, they are more secure than the Beats Fit Pro.

Heaploads of improvements have been made to the headphones. The concept has stayed the same – in-ear Bluetooth wireless headphones with ear hooks – but they’re 20% smaller and 20% lighter than the Powerbeats Pro used to be.

The brand claims it has also improved the overall ergonomic shape of the earbud and acoustic housing. It’s true that the Powerbeats Pro 2 look slimmer than before. The large air vent from the top of the buds has been moved further back, and Beats has also added another vent at the bottom, presumably to enhance airflow and improve acoustic performance.
