Big news for fitness junkies and audio lovers alike — Beats is back with the Powerbeats Pro 2, the new version of its wildly popular workout earbuds. As of Feb. 13, you can officially buy them for $249.99. And these aren't just a minor refresh; they're an all-out upgrade with features designed to keep up with even the most grueling training sessions. We're talking top-tier noise cancellation, heart rate monitoring, and a battery life that made us do a double take.

AmazonTo start us off, let's talk fit — because if your earbuds don't stay put, what's the point? Beats put these through over 1,500 hours of athlete testing to ensure a secure yet comfortable grip, no matter your ear shape or workout intensity. The signature earhooks are still here, but now they're reinforced with a nickel titanium alloy, making them 20% lighter and even more flexible. Translation: They're not going anywhere, whether you're hitting the treadmill or braving the elements. And with five different ear tip sizes, you can find the perfect seal for immersive sound and stay.
Speaking of sound, the Powerbeats Pro 2 delivers some serious audio firepower. The Active Noise Cancelling (ANC) has been fine-tuned to shut out distractions, while Transparency mode keeps you aware of your surroundings when you need to be. Add in Personalized Spatial Audio with dynamic head tracking, and suddenly, your playlist isn't just background noise — it's an experience. And thanks to the Apple H2 chip, Adaptive EQ constantly adjusts the sound to your environment, making sure your music always hits just right.

AmazonBattery anxiety? Never. These bad boys offer up to 45 hours of battery life with the charging case, which, by the way, is now 33% smaller than the previous model and features wireless Qi charging for added convenience. Whether you're team Apple or Android, these earbuds are compatible with both operating systems. And yes, with an IPX4 rating, they'll survive sweat, rain, and whatever else your workout throws at them.
The Powerbeats Pro 2 are available now in four slick colors: Jet Black, Electric Orange, Hyper Purple, and Quick Sand. While these are about $50 more expensive than Beats' most comparable product, the Beats Fit Pro earbuds, the advancement in battery life, the rigorously tested earhooks, and the heart rate monitoring make the price point worth it for us. If you want to get your hands on a pair before they inevitably sell out, you can buy them now for $249.99.
